In this powerful episode of the Open Heaven Podcast, we’re diving into Hebrews 12:25–29, where the voice of God shakes everything—but not everyone is shaken.

🔥 The promise?
Those who belong to Christ are part of a Kingdom that cannot be shaken.

As the world grows increasingly unstable, the believer must take on a Kingdom posture—not based on fear or striving, but rooted in GRACE. God is speaking in these last days, and His voice will once again shake the heavens and the earth. But we stand firm, because we are receiving something eternal.

This episode encourages us to:

👑 Live like citizens of the Kingdom of God

🤝 Serve with humility

💥 Be fueled by the grace that empowers unshakable faith

🙌 Key Takeaway:
You weren’t saved just to survive—you were saved to stand strong in a Kingdom that endures forever. God is speaking. His grace is sufficient. And His Kingdom will not be moved.

🎯 What You'll Learn:
✔️ What it means to live with a Kingdom posture
✔️ How grace empowers us to worship, learn, and serve
✔️ Why God's voice is both a shaking and a securing force
✔️ How reverence fuels lasting, Spirit-led service

### 🎙️ **Episode 101 – Don't Frustrate the Grace of God**
**Scripture Focus:** Galatians 2:20–21

“I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly.”

-In this power-packed episode, Pastor Joseph dives deep into **Galatians 2:21**, highlighting a powerful warning from the Apostle Paul: **"Do not frustrate the grace of God."**

Too often, believers unknowingly hinder God's plan in their lives—not because of a lack of calling or power—but because of **disobedience, excuses, or compromise**. The truth is: **God has already equipped you with everything you need to walk in victory and fulfill His purpose**.

This teaching will challenge and encourage you to:
- Stop making excuses that block your breakthrough
- Recognize how grace is God's power, not just pardon
- Live fully surrendered to Christ, no longer trying to do life in your own strength
- Embrace obedience as the path to freedom and fruitfulness

Let today be the day you stop frustrating grace—and start flowing in it.

### 📖 **Key Takeaways:**
- You’ve been crucified with Christ—now let Him live through you
- Grace is not just a covering for sin, it’s divine empowerment to overcome
- Excuses and partial obedience can block God's full plan
- God's grace isn’t frustrated by weakness—but by unwillingness

### 🎙️ **Open Heaven Podcast – Episode 100**
**Scripture Focus:** Galatians 2:20–21

### 📖 **Episode Overview:**

Welcome to **Episode 100** of the *Open Heaven Podcast*! 🎉

In this milestone episode, Pastor Joseph Sissac brings us into a powerful and personal reflection from **Galatians 2:20–21**, where the Apostle Paul declares that he has been **crucified with Christ**—and the life he now lives is by **faith in the Son of God**, not by works of the law.

🔑 **The Emphasis?**
➡️ This new life in Christ is **not powered by law**… it’s **powered by GRACE**.

Grace is not just a starting point for the Christian—it’s the **ongoing power source** that fuels transformation, righteousness, and purpose in our everyday lives. We don’t earn God’s favor—we walk in it. The righteousness we have is a gift, not a reward.

-### 💡 **Key Takeaways:**
- Grace isn’t just unmerited favor—it’s **divine empowerment**.
- We live *in Christ*, not by our own strength, but by **the life of Christ in us**.
- Righteousness is **received**, not achieved.
- The **crucified life** is a surrendered life—a vessel that allows God’s power to flow through it.
- When we try to earn what’s already been freely given, we *nullify* grace.

### 🙌 **Encouragement for Listeners:**
If you’ve been trying to earn your way back to God…
If you've been discouraged by your failures…
If you’ve felt like you’re not enough…

🔥 This episode will remind you: **Jesus is enough.** And **His grace is sufficient**.

### 🎙️ Open Heaven Podcast – Day 97
**Title:** *He Gives More Grace: The Humble Path to Overcoming*

**Scripture Focus:** James 4:4-10 “But He gives more grace. That is why Scripture says: ‘God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.’” (James 4:6, NIV)

### 🔥 Episode Summary:

In today’s episode, we uncover a powerful and sobering truth from James 4: **God is deeply jealous for our hearts.** When we, as His people, flirt with the world and give our affections to the things He saved us from, we grieve His Spirit. But the message doesn’t end with conviction—it moves us toward hope:

**He gives MORE grace.**
Grace to come back.
Grace to resist the enemy.
Grace to stay faithful.
Grace to overcome.

But here’s the key: **this grace begins with humility.** As we humble ourselves before the Lord, surrendering our pride, preferences, and worldly pursuits, we open the door to receive the empowering grace needed to walk in victory over sin and the schemes of the enemy.

### 📖 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

- Why God is described as **“jealous”** over our love
- How grace is not only unmerited favor—but **divine strength** to live free from sin
- The connection between **humility and spiritual empowerment**
- Why the enemy flees from those who **submit to God**
- What it means to **draw near to God** and live from a place of grace-fueled intimacy

### 🙏 Practical Encouragement:

- Examine your heart for areas of spiritual compromise or divided affections
- Ask God for the **“more grace”** promised in James 4:6
- Practice daily **humility, submission, and surrender**
- Declare: *“I resist the devil. I draw near to God. His grace is enough—and more.”*

🎧 **Listen, take notes, and invite the Holy Spirit to reveal areas where grace is ready to flow abundantly.**

### 🎙️ Open Heaven Podcast – Episode 96
** Come Boldly to the Throne of Grace
**Scripture Focus:** Hebrews 4:15–16

### 📖 Episode Description:

**Jesus knows. Jesus understands. Jesus overcame.**
Because of that truth, *you* can come boldly before the throne of grace.

In today’s episode of the Open Heaven Podcast, we reflect on the incredible reality of Hebrews 4:15–16. Jesus, our High Priest, has experienced every temptation, every pressure, and every pain—yet without sin. That means you’re not disqualified. You’re not alone. And you don’t have to struggle in silence.

The **throne of God is now the throne of grace** for those who belong to Christ. It’s not a throne of judgment for the believer—it’s a place to receive mercy, grace, strength, and power in our time of need. Whether you're facing temptation, fear, anxiety, or exhaustion—**grace is the answer**.

💥 The power of today’s message:
- Why we can confidently approach God through Christ
- The difference between guilt-driven religion and grace-empowered living
- What it means to receive mercy and grace in real-time moments of weakness
- How to live with the mindset of a royal priest in the Kingdom

Don’t let shame hold you back. Don’t let fear keep you quiet. **The throne is open. Grace is waiting.**

### 📝 Reflection Prompts:
1. What lies have kept you from going boldly before God?
2. When was the last time you asked for grace in a moment of need?
3. What would change in your life if you truly believed you had full access to God's mercy and help every day?

### 🎙️ Open Heaven Podcast – Episode 95
**Title:** The Gift of Grace: Stewarding the Power to Fulfill Your Calling
**Scripture Focus:** Ephesians 3:7, 1 Corinthians 15:9-11

### 📖 Episode Description:

In today’s powerful episode of the Open Heaven Podcast, we focus on how the **grace of God is not just a covering, but a calling**. Drawing from **Ephesians 3:7** and **1 Corinthians 15**, we explore how the Apostle Paul understood grace as a gift—**given for a purpose**, to accomplish something meaningful in the Kingdom of God.

Paul didn't mold grace to fit his preferences or personality. Instead, he allowed God's grace to **transform him into the kind of person who could bear the weight of such a divine calling**. And the same is true for us. We didn’t earn this grace. We didn’t pay for it. But it wasn’t free—it **cost Christ everything**. Our response? **Steward it well.**

💡 In this episode:
- Discover the connection between grace and calling
- Learn how God equips you through grace to do something significant
- Understand that transformation is part of the process
- Be encouraged to live out your calling in the power of God’s grace

If you’ve ever wondered what your calling is or felt unqualified to fulfill it, this episode will remind you that **grace is both the invitation and the empowerment**.

### ✍️ Reflection Questions & Journal Prompts:
1. In what ways have you seen the grace of God shaping you for something greater?
2. What “something” is grace calling you to build, serve, or pursue?
3. Are there areas of resistance in your life where God is inviting you to be transformed?
4. How can you better steward the gift of grace for His glory?
