Spiritual Conversations with Drake Miller

Hey Everybody! Posing question: Where does the path of righteousness begin?  Well, in general terms, no one can answer that questions. God is righteous, and God is from everlasting to everlasting… He has no beginning or ending, so neither does the pathway. But a more appropriate question is “where does the path of righteousness begin.. for us? Individually?  Listen to find out as we discuss the answer! I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at  Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me. I would be glad to help you find a church!  Thank you and be blessed!

Hey Everybody! It is the burlap bag of worry. Cumbersome? Yes. Chunky? Yes. Unattractive? Yes. Scratchy? Yes. Hard to get a handle on? Yes. It is irritating to carry and impossible to give away, and yet we all carry it. We will even bedazzle our burlap bag in jewels of excuses of circumstances and responsibilities, diamonds of validations, and even disguise it in labels of anxiety, panic, stress, or even personal characteristics by saying ‘this is just how I am.” But friend, face it: it’s worry. I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me.

I’ll give you the consequences of something; you guess the cause. · It afflicts 70 million Americans and is faulted for 38,000 deaths each year. · The condition annually cost the U.S. 70 billion dollars worth of productivity. · Teenagers suffer from it. Studies show that 64 percent of teens blame it for poor school performance. · Middle agers face it. Researchers say the most severe cases occur between ages thirty and forty. · Senior citizens are afflicted by it. One study suggests that the condition impacts 50 percent of the over-65 population. · Treatments involve everything from mouth guards to herbal teas to medication. Any idea what’s being described? Chemical abuse? Divorce? Some rare condition? The answer may surprise you, but you may relate. The answer is insomnia… America just can’t rest. I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me.

Today I’m going to talk to you about the most populated prison in the world. The facility has more inmates than bunks. More prisoners than plates. More residents than resources. On top of all that, it is the world’s most oppressive prison. Just ask the inmates; they’ll tell you. They are overworked and underfed. Their walls are bare and bunks are hard. No prison is more populated no prison more oppressive, and, what’s more, no prison is so permanent. Most inmates never leave. They never escape, and never get released. They serve a life sentence in this overcrowded, under-provisioned facility, and find out their sentence is all for nothing. The name of the prison? If you ever see it, or you may actually find yourself a prisoner of it… Rainbowed over the gate are four cast-ironed letters that spell out: W-A-N-T. I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me. I would be glad to help you find a church! Thank you and be blessed!

I’m only five feet from an eagle. His wings are spread, and his talons are lifted above the branch. White feathers cap his head, and black eyes peer at me from both sides of a golden beak. He is so close I could touch him. So near I could stroke him. With only a lean and a stretch of my right arm. I could cover the eagle’s crown with my hand. But I don’t. I don’t reach. Why not? Am I afraid of him? Hardly. Hasn’t budged in two years. When I first opened the box, he impressed me. When I first set him on the shelf, I admired him. Man-made eagles are nice for a while, but you quickly get used to them.  I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me. I would be glad to help you find a church! Thank you and be blessed!

This week, I finish up this series with this question: What then? After we have made our decision concerning salvation after our little short life has come to an end and we find ourselves standing before the LORD, What then? What will be the final judgment of your life? Will you hear “Well Done, good and faithful servant,” and spend eternity in that city which lieth foursquare? Or will you “depart from me” and be cast into an eternal lake of fire where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched? I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me. I would be glad to help you find a church! Thank you and be blessed!

Hey Everybody! Now how can the yoke of Jesus Christ and this New covenant be easy and the burden light, and how can Peter say that the Law, being 437 commandments fewer than this New covenant, be so heavy that neither the Disciples nor their fathers were able to bear them? Because in this new, more perfect covenant—the one which Hebrews continually refers to as “better”—we have a Helper, a Supernatural Helper.  I hope this has helped you today. I know it was a little longer than normal, and I do like to keep it in a digestible amount, but I really wanted to cover some of these parts which I felt were crucial for our understanding.  I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at  Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me.

Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Pretty good promise, right?  Hey everybody!! Welcome back to Spiritual Conversation with Drake Miller. This week we are talking about how Water Baptism and how this, being an essential part of the plan of salvation, is something that truly makes the difference. I hope this helps you; I hope you are able to see WHY we do it and HOW we do it.  I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. --2 Chronicles 8 Hey everybody!  This week we are talking about repentance, both initial and continual. We start off by bringing us "up to speed" in the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ, then we go on to define repentance, break down what it is and how we should do it. Then I spend the last bit of the episode letting you hear some of my heart as I make a wide call for repentance throughout the entire Kingdom of God.  I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week. If you don’t, we would love to see you at Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Road Winterville, GA 30683 And if you don’t have a home church but you don’t live near here, reach out to me.

Hey Everybody!  When John saw Jesus coming down the road one day, he said Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. The Difference--the defining difference in your life and mine--is The Messiah. It is Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. The Messiah makes the difference. I hope this helps you see just who Jesus Christ did, what He did for us, and how we can partake in it.  Next week: We will start to delve into what it means to believe on HIM. What it means to be saved through the only name that can save: Jesus. We will delve into the next part “ For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy. If you have a home church, I pray you and your church are blessed this week.

Hey Everybody! I am coming to you this week, in the start of a new series, to tell you the greatest love story ever told:  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. --John 3:16 Listen to find out what it is that truly makes the difference.

Hey everybody!! In this episode, we discuss The Written WORD of God. We answer "WHY did God allow it to be written?" "HOW should we get into it?" and "WHY should we read the WORD of God?" The first and foremost reason we read the WORD of God is so we might hide in our hearts that we might not sin against God...and be not displayed, there is promise of reward for all who follow it!

Hey Everybody!! "About the time of the end, a body of men will be raised up who will turn their attention to the prophecies of the Bible and will insist upon their literal interpretation in the midst of much clamor and opposition."  --Sir. Isaac Newton Join me today as I explore the power behind the literal interpretations of the WORD OF GOD, and why it is important we all do the same. I hope you are blessed, have peace and joy.

“It’s something more than a good thunk…”—Bibiana Loza  Today my good friend Bibiana Loza joined me to talk about one of my favorite topics: The WORD of God. The WORD of God is forever settled in Heaven, but it’s not promised it will always be accessible on this earth. While you have time and while the access is available, take one in your hand, hide the WORD in your heart, and let it be alive and active in your heart and life. If you do not have a home church and you are in the Athens area, we would love to see you at  Restoration Apostolic Church  110 Moores Grove Rd  Winterville, GA  And if you’re not in my area, I would love to help you connect with an Apostolic Body of Christ in your local area.

The Church of the Living God has an appointment to rebuild the Temple of the LORD, reestablish true and spirit-filled worship, and make the last reach for souls before our LORD comes back.

I am very excited, after much prayer, fasting, and conversation with my friends, family, mentors and Pastor, to launch my Podcast "Spiritual Conversations with Drake Miller". This is podcast where I will be sharing what the LORD has shared with me, lessons I have learned and, as the name implies, having spiritual conversations with my friends, mentors, family, and others in the church about topics relevant to the church in this hour.  I believe the LORD is doing something amazing in this day and hour, and I want to share that as well as what we can do to be a part of it. I am very excited about this opportunity, and I thank you all for your support.   My episodes will be released every Monday as I feel that is when we need encouragement to confirm that all the promises, change, and direction we received on Monday os right and true. I want to, in the most simple terms, help us.

Hey Everybody! Welcome back to Spiritual Conversations with your host, Drake Miller. I am SO excited to be back. This is a stand-alone message--it does go with the series on Psalm 24 we were going. I may go back to back to that on the next episode; however, I really just talked from my heart on this episode. I hope it blesses you! If you don't have a home church, I would love to help you find a local congregation. And if you're in my area, I would love to see you Restoration Apostolic Church 110 Moores Grove Rd, Winterville, GA Be blessed!!

Hey everybody! You all might have thought I just abandoned everyone! I did NOT! I am back, and I really want to talk to us today! I want to talk about rest, I mean rest for the mind. I mean peace for the mind. I want to help us get refocused. Help us move out of the torment many of us live in—mental torment that is—and get us into the place God wants us to be. It’s not hard to see how in this day and time men and women could find themselves wracked with mental torment. We know there are many spirits which fill our land and certainly not every spirit we face is of God. And scripture tells us that Satan has come down unto us, having great wrath because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. We know all of this. Jesus prayed for Peter that his faith fail not seeing that Satan desired to have him that he might sift him as wheat. So that tells us if we want to be concerned with thing Jesus sees fit to pray for, then we must be concerned about our faith, and more specifically our faith in the context of this world and the adversary which would like to destroy us in it—taking our faith and thus our hope. Thank you, and be blessed!
