Have you ever watched a baby move from babyhood to the toddler phase? It begins with one tenuous step, then another, and the race is on! That child is not planning to ever stop walking.

Sadly, many Christians stop moving forward in spiritual progression. They don’t move past babyhood, but instead, they stay right where they are stuck in situations and conditions that never seem to change.

You don’t have to be stunted in your spiritual growth when you follow these 3 steps of spiritual progression!

1. Don’t Stop Hearing God’s Word

In order to progress past babyhood, don’t stop hearing God’s Word. Romans 10:17 (NKJV) says, “Faith comes by hearing and by hearing the Word of God.” Taking time to hear the Word daily sets you on a path to progress in your life of faith.

In order to continue to hear God’s Word, you have to close your ears to other things. Turn off the television. Shut down your phone. Think about where you are spending your time and what you are hearing. Turning down the noise of the world will enable you to turn up the voice of God’s Word.

Keep hearing so you can grow in faith and victory.
Keep hearing to become fully persuaded of the truth of God’s Word.
Keep hearing so you can be confident in what Jesus said.

How do you hear God’s Word? Read the Bible. Go to church. Watch anointed teachers on YouTube and Victory Channel. Be open to hear God wherever and whenever He speaks.

2. Don’t Stop Speaking God’s Word

Another way to progress in faith is to keep speaking God’s Word. When you find a promise in the Bible, say it out loud. Speaking God’s Word will keep your heart and life lined up with God’s will.

Jesus said, “By your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned” (Matthew 12:37, NKJV). Your words contain power to create God’s will or to hinder God’s results.

Jesus told the disciples their words carry power if spoken in faith, “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” (Mark 11:23, NKJV).

LaShea McKinney was diagnosed with lymphoma cancer and given 30 days to live. She followed Gloria Copeland’s prescription of speaking God’s Word of healing over herself three times a day.

Gloria said, “If necessary, double the dose!” Even though she didn’t feel any difference in her body, she didn’t stop! On the 30th day, LaShea returned to the doctor. He again ran all the tests, then called in five specialists who all agreed there was no sign of cancer in her body!

3. Don’t Stop Loving God and Others

To progress in your life of faith, you must keep loving God and others. Jesus said, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:37-39).

When you abide in Jesus and let His Words abide in you, you will bear good fruit in your life (John 15:1-8). By hearing and speaking God’s Word, you are enabling God to work on the inside of you, giving you the desire and will to please Him.

What pleases God? Loving Him and loving others. Don’t let any circumstance, a careless spill, a forgotten promise, or even a hurtful comment keep you from loving God and those around you. Jesus said, “Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples” (John 13:35).

You can love others because God loves you.

Don’t stop learning and growing in Christ by spending time with Him and surrounding yourself with other believers in sweet fellowship. As you do, you will progress in your life of faith.

You may feel like a baby taking his first steps but keep going in faith. This life with God is a journey and by continuing to walk with Him, you will end up enjoying a life of victory!

Cast Your Cares: 3 Ways to Change Your Thoughts

Posted on August 21, 2025 - 3:17 pm by KCM

A woman staring at the horizon in deep thought

You don’t have to be weighed down with the cares of life; you can cast your cares on God by changing your thoughts.

Philippians 4:8 says, “I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse” (MSG).

In the same way you change the channel of a television program to something else, you can change your thoughts. In this post, learn how to cast your cares and change your thoughts from the worst to the best, from the ugly to the beautiful, and from things to curse to things to praise.

Cast Your Cares: Think the Best, Not the Worst

When a problematic situation arises, do you cast your cares by changing your thoughts? Do you think of the worst possible scenario? When you don’t hear back from someone, do you think something has happened to them?

Since we have instant access to news and reports from all over the world, we are constantly inundated with worst-case scenarios flooding our phones and inboxes. What can you do to think the best, not the worst?

When something happens in your life and your mind is flooded with negative images, you can stop and pray for the person or situation. Your prayers are not limited by location. God invites us to pray for all people, asking Him to help them (1 Timothy 2:1).

When you invite God into the situation, He can turn it around. He thinks the best, not the worst. When you know God is working on a problem, you can cast every care on Him.

Cast Your Cares: Think of the Beautiful, Not the Ugly

You can be tempted to focus on the ugly parts of life or human nature rather than casting your cares on the Lord. When someone cuts you off in traffic, how do you respond? When someone speaks negatively about you, do you think about it or dwell on it for long periods of time? At any moment, you can look at the news on your phone and see people treating other people with disdain.

Instead of judging others, Paul reminds us that we are to serve one another in love. “For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’” (Galatians 5:14).

Understand that everyone is facing their challenges. You don’t know what happened to someone that morning or what family or job situations they are facing. Choosing to find the beautiful parts of a person is choosing to love your neighbor as yourself.

Cast Your Cares: Think On Things To Praise, Not Things To Curse

You can cast your cares on the Lord by praising Him. Psalm 9:1 says, “I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done.” Focusing on the Lord rather than cursing what is going on around you will alter your perspective.

God is good and has done wonderful things for you. He sent His Son to die for you so you can spend eternity with Him and live a blessed life on earth (John 3:16-17). He makes the rain come down and the sunshine fill the sky so you can enjoy life (Matthew 5:45).

When you are tempted to think about things to curse or complain, focus instead on the Lord and praise Him. Begin by thanking Him for all the wonderful things He has done for you.

First Peter 5:7 says, “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” Instead of allowing the cares of life to stop you in your tracks or get you off track, you can change the channel in your mind, filling it with things that are true, noble, compelling and gracious; and experience God’s love for you.

5 Practical Ways to Cast Your Cares on Jesus

Speak to the Storm To Cast Out Fear

Kenneth Copeland Bible College Student Miraculously Healed of Cancer

Posted on August 20, 2025 - 1:00 am by KCM

Nathaniel “Nate” Ellis is no stranger to difficult life circumstances. Following a devastating divorce that essentially left him homeless, he was then given a potential death sentence that required being healed of cancer to fix it.

Following his divorce, things began looking up when he landed a job that made more money than he’d seen in his lifetime. “I thought, ‘This is it,’ and that it was where God called me to be,” said Ellis.

However, that changed when he learned about a Bible college in Fort Worth, Texas. Nate wanted to go to school there, but it required overcoming his current situation.

His grandmother was the matriarch of faith in his family. One day, she introduced her grandson to the VICTORY Channel. He thought they were sitting down to enjoy a classic T.V. sitcom together. Instead, he saw an ad for Kenneth Copeland Bible College (KCBC).

He was a relatively new Christian, but he believed the Lord put it on his heart to move to Texas to enroll in the school. “I left everything I knew behind to come to Texas,” said Ellis. It was that sacrifice that the Lord used to bless him for putting God first. “I even had to rent a mattress for my first couple of months being here,” he continued.

However, the days of renting a mattress are long gone. “The Lord not only provided me a new car, but I also now have my own mattress, which is the first time in my life,” he stated.

Things were lining up nicely for Ellis. As a student at KCBC, he knew he was exactly where the Lord had led him; he had a good job working for Kenneth Copeland Ministries (KCM) as a licensed prayer minister, and he had a great community surrounding him.

Life was good.

Watch as Nate Ellis shares his miraculous story

An Unexpected Diagnosis

During his first semester as a student at KCBC, he visited the doctor for a regular checkup. He had no idea that being healed of cancer was something he’d ever have to tackle with faith. The report he received rocked his world. “They did a CT scan and found a mass in my gut,” recalled Ellis.

Cancer.

“I was pretty much at my lowest after hearing that news, and it kind of scared me because I’ve had some family go through cancer.” However, Ellis made the choice to give the worry and fear to the Lord. “I said to Him, ‘You know exactly what I need. I believe I’ll be healed of cancer. I refuse to live in fear.’”

The next day, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland’s granddaughter, Jenny Papapostolou, was preaching at the KCBC chapel service. When the Anointing of God showed up, she laid hands on Ellis and declared that he was healed of cancer and restored.

A man in a plaid shirt stands with arms raised, surrounded by people with hands lifted in prayer — Jenny Papapostolou ministers to Nate Ellis at a KCBC Chapel service.

After that, Ellis went online and downloaded Keith Moore’s 101 Things God Said About Healing. “I made the healing scriptures so evident in my face that I couldn’t not see them,” said Ellis.

Within a week he went back to the same doctor’s office to get another CT scan, and he was told that the cancerous mass was gone.

“Being completely healed from cancer encouraged me to the point where I was even ministering to the nurses and my caseworker,” Ellis joyfully recalled. “They were affected in a positive way as a result of seeing a man healed from cancer.”

Walking In Victory Being Healed of Cancer

A college graduate embraces a loved one, celebrating a significant achievement surrounded by family — Nate Ellis receives a hug from his mother at his KCBC graduation, while his sister and grandmother look on.

Today, Nate Ellis believes that being enrolled at KCBC was paramount for experiencing this miracle. Having a dose of the Word of God each day in class helped him not be overcome with fear.

“Honestly, I don’t know where I would’ve ended up. If I didn’t have that community and that Word being poured into me daily, I don’t know that I would be where I’m at today,” he stated.

According to Ellis, it’s all a result of God showing him where he needed to be and exactly whom he needed to be around.

“KCBC will definitely give you more than enough to equip you with what you need; not only for today, not only for tomorrow or next week, but for your future,” said Ellis.

Ellis confidently stated that he is the most prosperous he’s ever been in his life. It’s not because of anything he did, but by simply saying ‘Yes’ to the Lord. “The Lord knew exactly what I needed,” concluded Ellis.

Create a Spiritual Checklist To Soar In Faith

Posted on August 13, 2025 - 3:31 pm by KCM

A skilled airplane pilot follows his operator’s checklist every time he gets ready to take a trip. It contains instructions on preparing the aircraft for a safe venture into the skies. In the same way a pilot prepares for flight, Christians should prepare daily by keeping their spiritual checklist close at hand.

What is a spiritual checklist? A spiritual checklist contains information and instructions to please God and to live the Christian life.

Where do you find it? A spiritual checklist is found throughout God’s Word. Read your Bible and write down the instructions and promises that will help you in all the different areas of life. Hearing God is our way to navigate life and keep us from running into an emotional dead end.

Throughout the Scriptures, we learn how to worship God (John 4:24), how to be a good parent (Proverbs 22:6), what to do in times of trouble (Proverbs 3:5-6), and God’s perspective about death (Psalm 116:15).

A good place to find a ready-made spiritual checklist is on the first pages of the Kenneth Copeland Reference Bible. Brother Copeland offers these outlines to anyone serious about studying God’s Word.

Let’s discover how to create a spiritual checklist to soar in faith.

Follow the Spiritual Manual

Piloting an aircraft is exhilarating! Before the pilot does anything, the manual is read thoroughly, and a comprehensive checklist review ensures the plane is ready to fly.

A pilot must know what to do before the unexpected happens. In the middle of an emergency, it is not the time to read the manual for the first time. The pilot must be familiar with the procedures and, in the event of an aviation emergency, be prepared before anything unexpected happens in the air.

In the same way, becoming a victorious believer requires reading and studying God’s Word, which is a manual. You must understand what God says about the situations in your life. The Lord gave you everything you need to live a successful, godly life, and as you follow His ways, He will keep His promises to you (2 Peter 1:3).

Watch as Kenneth Copeland and Greg Stephens teach how to follow the owner’s manual.

Recognize God’s Voice

Just as a pilot must recognize the voice of the air traffic controller who is directing him to safety, you must recognize God’s voice, which directs you to safety.

It’s essential to follow your spiritual checklist because many voices are vying for your attention (1 Corinthians 14:10). Years ago, entertainers would mimic the voices of well-known government officials and popular singers. Some were so skilled at doing this that you couldn’t tell the imitation from the real singer.

The devil will try to imitate the voice of the Lord. He tries to sound like God. John taught believers to examine spiritual voices to determine their source. Use this test to differentiate the Spirit of Truth from the spirit of error: Every voice that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God (1 John 4:1-6).

Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice and a stranger’s voice they will not follow” (John 10:4-5). Recognize God’s voice and follow Him, not another voice.

Soar Above Fear

God has given you His Word to read and meditate on so you can soar above fear. Spending time with the Lord and referencing your spiritual checklist enables you to transcend natural limitations and rise above the fear of a troublesome situation (Isaiah 41:10).

Fear likes to show up when you are facing troubles of any kind. Living a Christian life doesn’t mean trouble will never come because “in this world you will have many troubles,” Jesus said. “But take heart, because I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

How do you overcome when trouble comes?

You overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony (Revelation 12:11). Don’t remain silent but speak God’s Word.

God wants to lift you above this world into His kingdom (Colossians 1:13) even while you continue to live in this world. Jesus said you can be bold because you live like Jesus in this world (1 John 4:17).

Start today by getting your spiritual checklist in order. Remember to include scriptures that remind you of God’s faithfulness and His promises to care for you. Buckle your seat belt, go over your spiritual checklist and be ready to lift off into the limitless frontiers of flying with God!

EMIC 14forty Students Stand with CUFI, Support Israel in D.C.

Posted on August 13, 2025 - 12:16 pm by KCM

A group of younger adults waving American and Israeli flags

To better understand and support Israel, high school students from the Eagle Mountain International Church ministry, 14forty, attended the national Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Summit in Washington, D.C. The goal was to understand Christianity’s role and why maintaining a sense of Israeli awareness is crucial for today’s believers. However, they came home knowing much more about themselves and why their Christianity is involved.

Along with parents and nine young adults from the church’s young adults ministry, The Bridge, EMIC went to DC. The determined group was resolute to understand and fortify their sociopolitical beliefs. This trip represented their faith in Jesus Christ and a deep affinity for the origins of His people.

The Bible declares in Psalm 122:6 (NLT) to “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: ‘May all who love this city prosper. ‘ As every believer should, these students and young adults were determined to discover why.

Why Stand With CUFI and Support Israel?

Christians United for Israel (CUFI) was founded by Pastor John Hagee, founder and pastor emeritus of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas. What began in 2006 as a grassroots effort to exemplify the Abrahamic Blessing in Genesis 12:3 and encourage pastors to become galvanized with Israeli interests is now the largest pro-Israel organization in the U.S. with 10 million members.

Eagle Mountain International Church, founded by Kenneth Copeland and led by Pastors George and Terri Pearsons, has been involved with CUFI since 2017. Then, John Jester, associate pastor of EMIC, initiated a program to engage college students more actively in Israeli awareness and inspire them all to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” That idea was so singular that Pastor Hagee was determined to do the same thing.

“CUFI on Campus” was born in 2018. That year, EMIC committed to sending a couple of college students (free of charge) with a passion to support Israel and outreach to the national CUFI Summit in Washington, D.C. They heard from international leaders, foreign heads of state. They regarded pastors who inspired everyone in attendance to cultivate their Holy Spirit-inspired desire to speak out about antisemitism on college campuses.

“The CUFI Summit is bigger than mobilizing grassroots efforts to support Israel,” said Pastor Jester. “This is about protecting the heritage of our faith. It’s not a political agenda; it’s giving these tragic stories of antisemitism a face and a name.”

Why Go to Washington, D.C.?

This year’s annual excursion from EMIC to the CUFI Summit was notable for something different. Since 2018, EMIC has helped inspire the idea of CUFI-related high school clubs. Additionally, Pastors George and Terri Pearsons became active within CUFI as state directors. The vision from CUFI has become tangible at Eagle Mountain International Church.

The church vociferously speaks about being strong in your faith, understanding how to support Israel, news related to Hamas terrorism, and even the Free Palestine movement. It’s open, honest dialogue from a Messianic perspective, which is something that 14forty pastor Kathryn Hanley stresses is sorely missing in today’s churches.

“It is rare for so many young people to approach their elected officials to advocate for pro-Israel legislation in our nation’s government and laws,” she said. “It was amazing to see these young people educate themselves and take action on behalf of Israel and the Jewish people!”

Thanks to the heartfelt generosity of CUFI partners creating fully paid scholarships, 13 of EMIC’s 14forty students were able to go to this year’s CUFI national summit. The trip was unforgettable. They even watched former Israeli hostages held captive by Hamas share their grueling stories.

“There was no watering down of the agenda at the CUFI Summit,” continued Pastor Hanley. “The students—and the adults, too—heard what needed to be said about the rigorous state of affairs in Israel around the world.”

Why Is It Vital to Understand How to Support Israel?

Pastor Jester discussed a pressing sociological issue that underscores the importance of attending a CUFI Summit or knowing how to support Israel during these times, whether on a high school or college campus, at work, or in church.

“Most teens have no concept of Israel itself. Our kids understand there is a country in the Middle East where Jesus was born. Yet, few know why our allegiance to the nation is biblical,” he exclaimed.

“These students are inquisitive about justice and rights for everyone. They understand social reform and relate to Black Lives Matter. They also connect with the LGBTQ+ protests. And they can understand the Free Palestine movement because it deals with a group of people who want to be seen and heard—something students deal with every day in some fashion, everywhere.”
Pastor John Jester, Associate Pastor, EMIC

However, to make that connection with Israel more real and personal, Pastors Jester and Hanley took the group to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum for an unforgettable experience.

In July 1944, Soviet forces liberated the Majdanek camp. These are the shoes of some of those victims from the Holocaust. (Image Credit: USHMM.org)

Before this exhibit, before the October 7, 2023, attacks by Hamas against Israel, even before the Holocaust, theories spread like wildfire, painting the birthplace of Christianity as the enemy.

Powerful reminders, like the shoes and IDs that belonged to Jewish people and their allies, prove the devastating scale of the tragedies against the Israeli people. That significance in each pastor’s eyes is reason alone to stand with Israel and speak strongly on behalf of that country.

“Judaism is one of the only places where race and religion, culture and politics intersect, and they are not mutually exclusive,” they said. “Seeing IDF soldiers at CUFI’s summit, headlines in the news about October 7, or those precious IDs in the museum show antisemitism isn’t a fight against a theory or ideology; it’s against a defenseless person.”

Why Are Students Challenged to Apply These Lessons?

One of the last things the traveling EMIC students were privileged to do in Washington, D.C. was visit Capitol Hill and the Supreme Court. Students and chaperones alike noted it was one of the most impactful moments of the entire trip.

Pastor Hanley mentioned the group standing on the steps of the Supreme Court, praying for our nation and reading scriptures about justice for the innocent. “We prayed for righteousness in our country, for our leaders, and to create laws that aligned with biblical truth,” she said. “We also prayed for protection over our court justices and national leaders. It was amazing!”

Pastor Jester agreed and shared the reason for this lesson. It detailed and underscored the need to support Israel and take a stand against anti-semitic oppression.

“There is a level of cognitive dissonance you have to appeal to high schoolers’ and college students’ emotions and teach them what is going on in the world around them,” he said. “Beyond church, beyond ministry, what we learned is a launching pad for dreams of a complete community, and one where Christians can be proud of a Jewish heritage in whatever way it connects to them.”

KCM Disaster Relief Team Continues to Work in Kerrville

Posted on August 5, 2025 - 4:08 pm by KCM

An aerial view of flooding damage in Kerrville, Texas, along the Guadalupe River.

Typically, July 4 in Texas means hot dogs, family time and fireworks. It also means staycations in New Braunfels and Kerrville, Texas, to float the Guadalupe and Comal Rivers. Tragically, this past Independence Day was the day of massive flooding and devastation, which resulted in the death of 135 innocent people.

Search and rescue efforts involved multiple groups from various states and Mexico, along the Guadalupe River, which rose to 25 feet in two hours, and a state record of 37.5 feet overall. Much like many statewide relief organizations, the KCM Disaster Relief Team headed to Kerrville the moment authorities released the flooded areas for visiting.

Led by Kenneth Copeland Ministries’ Evangelism Director Riley Stephenson, the KCM Disaster Relief team drove hours away to central Texas to support local churches, regional efforts, and serve our Partners in the area affected by the damage and perilous conditions.

Experience the Results of KCM Disaster Relief

At the 2025 Southwest Believers’ Convention, the KCM Disaster Relief team put together a moving video of footage from Kerrville. They spoke with locals, KCM Partners and business owners about our work in the wake of the Texas flooding.

We believe in miracles in Kerrville. We stand in faith with the families still reeling from the floods on July 4. However, as the Bible declares in James 2:14-26, “faith without works is dead.”

Our faith in Christ needs to be seen and heard to be experienced. That’s why when God blesses, we should bless others. We aren’t serving anyone around us or fulfilling the Great Commission by keeping that a secret.

This is faith in action.

Other churches and ministries were there. Other organizations were working along the Guadalupe River. We were proud to represent the body of Christ and the trust our Partners place in this ministry, which aims to reach people in need, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially.

Echo the Outreach for Humanity

Our efforts go as far as our Parents and Friends believe and support us to go. God is pointing the direction, but we will work with you every step of the way.

During and after a disaster, KCM connects with every KCM Partner in the region to ensure their safety and stands with them, so that their community will be supernaturally restored.

You may not be able to travel to Texas, but you can help!

Ask the Lord if you should play a part in helping us reach our $100,000 goal to fund immediate relief to our KCM Partners and Friends, and our Christmas Toy Store Outreach that will bless families in Kerrville at the end of the year.

When you give to KCM’s Disaster Relief Fund, the funds are designated toward our Disaster Relief efforts in Kerrville and beyond. Please know that at KCM, we take designated gifts seriously. If an outreach’s goal has been reached, your donation will be applied to another outreach in need. All donations are fully tax-deductible.

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10).

In times of flooding in Kerrville, or any disaster, it’s difficult to believe that God is with you for strength and help. That’s why the work of the Church moving together and showing up for support is vital—to the saved, the hurting, the lost.

It’s because of you that we were able to be there for them, and we stay committed to checking on you, too. For that, we are eternally grateful.

5 Ways To Serve God In Our Country

What does it mean to serve God in our country? America’s first colonists left England in search of a new world where they would have the right to worship God and serve Him. Yet, with those rights come choices. You can choose how you spend your time and your money, in addition to choosing where to live and work.

From the very beginning, the concept of nations was God’s idea. “From one person God made all nations who live on earth, and he decided when and where every nation would be” (Acts 17:26, CEV). Thank God for our country! We should be open to opportunities God brings across our paths to serve Him and the people in our nation.

Let’s look at several ways you can serve God in our country.

Vote.

By now, you realize how crucial voting is to serving God in our country.

You have the right to vote for the candidate of your choice and participate in the election process. Although no candidate is perfect and no position the candidate takes is without debate, your vote counts!

We owe it to our ancestors and all those who sacrificed for us, to maintain the right to vote, and to be informed on the issues and how the candidates stand on each one. Look for the evidence of the fruit of the spirit in their lives (Galatians 5:22-23).

And if you need help, VICTORY Channel has plenty of programming to help explain how to change our nation.

Run for a government office.

Have you ever thought about running for a government office? Can you see yourself as the mayor or a council member in your area? Do you have some good ideas and a passionate commitment to improve the conditions for your city’s residents and businesses? Do you want a change in the government?

One way to achieve change is to be a voice for it. Solomon wrote, “When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice” (Proverbs 29:2). God has given you a voice, a voice of faith and power, so use it for the good of government by running for a government office.

The Bible makes it clear that government workers are serving God in their work. Romans 13:6 says, “Pay your taxes, too, for these same reasons. For government workers need to be paid. They are serving God in what they do.”

Decide today to run for a government office in your area and be part of the righteous who are in authority.

Join the military.

One branch of the military service advertises that it’s for “a few good men.” That could be you—a “good” man or woman. Many people join the military to afford a good education. That’s a good reason, but here’s a better one.

Join the military to serve God in our nation and defend the Constitution of the United States. Please stand up for what you believe and help this nation attain its goals of justice, liberty and freedom.

Watch Kenneth Copeland share words of encouragement to those in the military.

Be a first responder.

A first responder is someone ready to respond at the first sign of trouble. It could be a firefighter, an ambulance driver, a diver or simply a concerned citizen.

In 2025, Texas suffered a devastating loss of life due to a natural event, an unexpected flood with 24-foot swells near Kerrville, which killed more than 100 people, including children.

The first responders were on the scene to rescue those who were on top of houses and stuck, hanging onto trees, waiting for help to arrive. They continued to work tirelessly to find those who were missing.

Riley Stephenson with KCM was one of the first responders who arrived on the scene in Kerrville to check on our KCM Partners in the area.

Many such events occur throughout the United States each year due to weather, fire or danger; and first responders are always ready and willing to help. Enroll in first-responder training to participate in the rewarding experience of saving someone’s life.

Pray.

Another way you can serve God and our nation is to pray. God’s Word says we are to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17).

Don’t let your prayers revolve only around the people you know. Allow yourself to serve others by interceding on their behalf for their needs. First Timothy 2:1 says, “I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them.”

Don’t let the idea of praying for everyone all at once discourage you. Start by praying for one government leader, like the mayor or the president, and then expand to include more leaders, like members of Congress or Supreme Court judges. You’ll find your prayer time is rewarded by seeing God’s hand guiding the nation.

First Timothy 2:2-3 says, “Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior.” Your prayers for those in authority are directly tied to living a peaceable life.

When you consider these five ways to serve God in our nation, what can you do today? Register to vote? Inquire about local government elections in which you could volunteer to help? Run for a political office? Support the military or first responders with words of encouragement, or consider paying for their meal. Everyone can pray! Choose today to serve God in our nation!

SWBC 2025: Our 45th Annual was One for the Ages

A crowd shot facing a stage at SWBC 2025 (Southwest Believers' Convention)

Partners and friends, speakers and guests, SWBC 2025 was a glorious event! The 45th anniversary of the Southwest Believers Convention was the best yet. We witnessed a cutting-edge new stage, powerful worship, returning speakers and an unexpected and unbelievable spirit of renewal.

If you were there, thank you for investing your resources to make the journey. If you watched us live on the VICTORY Channel, social media or YouTube, thank you for investing the time to commit to the LORD.

The Spirit of God moved each day of SWBC 2025. Dozens were baptized. Hundreds were saved. And thousands were blessed with physical, emotional, financial or relational healing in their lives.

This is how SWBC 2025 all began.

The Fort Worth Convention Center is more than an aged building; it’s a place of miracles. At least it became one for six power-packed days of the fire of the Holy Spirit. If you missed any one of the 12 speakers at SWBC 2025, we’ve got you covered. Prayerfully, the Anointing does that for you as well when you watch each one of these videos.
