Introduction: A Morning of Encouragement

Pastors Leonard and Lori open with joy, sharing how much they cherish these morning teaching moments. They emphasize that everything they share is first brought before Aba Father in prayer and study. These sessions are sacred, and they strive to ensure what they speak is Spirit-led, helpful, and full of truth for the listener’s life.

Relevance Before God

Pastor Leonard shares a tender personal moment when God assured him of his relevance. In times of doubt, God told him, “You are relevant to Me.” That alone gave him peace. He was also reminded that he’s relevant to his wife, Lori. This brought him deep reassurance, not based on external validation, but divine affirmation.

Heartfelt Gratitude to the Body of Christ

They thank their viewers for encouragement, letters, and support—both spiritual and financial. Pastor Leonard emphasizes that this ministry is not about building their own kingdom, but God’s kingdom. He explains that support helps clear away spiritual "cobwebs" so people can live fully in their new creation identity, without guilt, shame, or condemnation.

Vulnerability and Spiritual Transparency

Pastor Leonard admits he wears his emotions on his sleeve. He talks openly about being deeply affected by spiritual truths and interactions with God. Even though he jokingly says he’s “Superman” on the inside, he recognizes his soul sometimes slips into unrenewed thinking—just like everyone else.

The Midnight Battle with Anxiety

He recounts a recent early morning when he woke up overwhelmed with fear, worry, and anxiety. Despite trying to apply what he knew—standing on the Word, commanding peace—it didn’t work. He tossed and turned, trying to “overcome” the feelings with effort, but nothing changed until he simply got up and sat with Aba Father.

Resting in the Love of the Father

Leonard describes how he finally stopped trying to fix things and instead let God love him. He reminded himself, “Aba, you love me. Daddy, you love me.” He stopped trying to figure it all out and chose instead to rest in that divine love, allowing God to speak peace to his heart.

 Pastor Lori affirms this practice, quoting Philippians 4:6-7 (not directly cited in the transcript, but alluded to)-“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Galatians 3:26–27 – Immersed in Christ

God brought Leonard to Galatians 3:26-27:

Galatians 3:26- For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 3:27- For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

 This verse hit his heart deeply. It declared that we are children of God not by effort, but by faith in Jesus. And being baptized into Christ means we have literally put on Christ—we are covered by Him.

What It Means to Be Clothed in His Anointing

They read Galatians 3:26–27 from three translations.

KJV:

Galatians 3:26: For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 3:27: For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Passion Translation:

“You have all become true children of God by faith in Jesus the Anointed One. It was faith that immersed you into Jesus the Anointed One, and now you are covered and clothed with his anointing.”

This translation emphasized that being baptized means being immersed into Jesus and now fully clothed in His anointing.

The Mirror Bible Revelation

They then share from the Mirror Study Bible:

  “What Jesus Christ believes to be true about you is the final confirmation of mankind’s redeemed sonship.”

  “His faith is the only valid reference to your belief.”

 “To be immersed in Christ is to be fully clothed with Him. He is your brand new wardrobe confirming your sonship.”

 Leonard is overwhelmed by this revelation—that what Jesus believes about us is what matters most. If He says we are sons, we are sons. If He says we are righteous, we are righteous.

The Power of Seeing Yourself Spiritually

Leonard and Lori urge viewers to begin seeing themselves spiritually—not just through the “earth suit.” Though we can’t see the anointing physically, it surrounds us. Like a person submerged in water, we are completely immersed in Jesus and His anointing. Spiritually, you are radiant, beautiful, and filled with Christ’s glory.

Final Picture: Covered in Jesus and His Peace

After receiving this word from God, Leonard says he was finally able to fall back asleep in peace. He snuggled into his blankets and envisioned being fully covered by Jesus like a warm robe. The anxiety was gone. The message? You don’t fight spiritual battles by striving. You win by resting in your identity.

Closing Encouragement

Pastor Lori ends by reminding us that we don’t even need to generate faith—it’s already been given to us.

 Galatians 2:20 (implied) “…the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”

 Faith is a gift. Everything we need—including peace, righteousness, and sonship—has been gifted to us in Christ. We lack nothing.

We hope this article blessed you. You are completely immersed in Christ, fully clothed in His anointing, and totally loved by God. Rest in that truth today. Please share this teaching with someone who needs encouragement—and remember, you lack nothing
