2 Empower U with Thomas A. DeLoach

Don’e Lose Your Mind - 114

DON’T LOSE YOUR MIND – JULY 04, 2022
 
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.”
                                - Philippians 4:8
Good Monday, everyone! It’s a brand new month and 2 Empower U has lined up several interesting and insightful episodes for everyone wishing to learn, be empowered, and grow. 
 
On today’s episode, Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will be talking to you about the power of your thoughts. What are your thoughts telling you? Where do your thoughts come from? What does it mean to think pure or noble, right or true, lovely or admirable? Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will share with you his insights and experienced on determining what your thoughts are trying to say, as well as how to interpret what your thoughts are telling you. 
 
"What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself. All day long, the mill of his brain is grinding, and his thoughts, not those other things, are his history."
                                - Mark Twain
 
Positive Thinking, Negative Thinking, and Discernment
 
These are three different things and Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will help you understand each one. What is positive thinking and how is this different from the kind of thinking that God wants you to do? What does it to think negatively? 
 
Pastor Thomas will talk to you about discernment. How can you “judge well”? When do you practice discernment?
 
“The source of thought comes from God’s word.”
                                - Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach
 
The good pastor will also discuss with you God’s word and how it is related to your thoughts – to what you are thinking and what you are supposed to be thinking. 
 
Finally, Pastor Thomas will share with you how your thoughts can become the basis of your actions and words.
“AII these evil things proceed from within and defile the man….No one commits these outward sins without first having committed them in his mind.”
                            - Mark 7:20-23/Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach

Above Only - 113

BOVE ONLY – JUNE 27, 2022
 
“The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.”
                                - Deuteronomy 28:13
 
Good day to all of you, empowered people! Today is the last Monday of June 2022. Time sure flies fast! Here on 2 Empower U, we prepare something special every week, so that you’ll have something meaningful to look back to as each month ends.
 
For today’s episode, Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will give you spiritual insights in what being “above only” means. The Book of Deuteronomy says that if you follow the Lord your God and pay attention to His commands, you will always be “at the top”. What does being “at the top” mean in God’s kingdom? How can you sincerely follow the Lord and His commands? These are the things that Pastor Thomas will share with you to help you understand your standing with God. He’ll share insights so you’ll know that with God, you’ll never be beneath or below – you’ll always be at the top.
 
To Be At the Top
 
“….We are only above by standing on the Word of God. We need to cease from wrestling and fighting with circumstances, situations, diseases, disorders, and every work of the enemy. We need to speak the Word of God by faith and allow the Word of God to remove these things from us.’
                                - Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach
 
What Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will share with you today will make you realize a lot of important matters, the most important of which is this:
 
To be at the top, you need to abide by and live the Word of God every day of your life.
 
“It is through Him that we live and function and have our identity: just as your own poets have said: Our lineage comes from Him.”
                                - Acts 17:28 (TPT)

The Benefits Of Praying In The Spirit - 112

THE BENEFITS OF PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT – JUNE 20, 2022
 
“The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? ln the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God; so that we may understand what God has freely given us.”
                                    - 1 Corinthians 2:11-12
 
Good Monday, everyone! We are almost at the tail-end of June and we’re excited for the things to come. But for today, on 2 Empower U, our focus will be on praying. Not just any kind of praying but the sincere, heartfelt kind – the one that is “in the Spirit”. 
 
You often hear this term, “in the Spirit,” but what exactly does it mean? How does one “pray in the Spirit?” This is what Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will share with you today. He’ll help you understand what sincere, heartfelt, “in the Spirit” prayer is. Maybe then you can use his insights to determine how you’ve been praying versus to how you should be praying. Have you really been sincere? Or have you just been babbling every time you prayed? What difference can a sincere prayer or two make? Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will answer these questions for you today.
 
The Mind is a Window for the Spirit
 
Pastor Thomas has interesting and helpful insights on the mind being the window for the Spirit; how the Spirit connects with your mind and vice versa. How is this related to a prayer-filled life? Why is it important for your mind and the Spirit to connect and stay connected? The good pastor will share with you his insights and experiences on these questions.
 
Additionally, in this episode of 2 Empower U, Pastor Thomas will explain what praying in tongues mean and how this can help you pray in the Spirit. He will also give you a breakdown of the benefits of praying in the Spirit.
 
Points to remember:
 
Don’t prophesy trouble, just get connected.
Pray abundantly.
Pray and discern.
 
The Holy Spirit will give you your own vocabulary, words to utter so you can communicate well, especially in prayer.

Leave It In The Past - 111

LEAVE IT IN THE PAST – JUNE 13, 2022
 
“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
                                - II Corinthians 5:17
 
Hello, empowered friends! It’s the 2nd Monday of June and today, 2 Empower U will help you let go of the past – not because of any earthly reason, but because the past has gone and the fresh and new has come. Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will help you understand why hanging on to the past or what is gone and been done can weigh you down and affect your life.  The pastor will help you understand what it means to be a “new creature, a new creation in Christ Jesus”.
 
Embracing the New
 
A lot of people like to hang on to the past and treat it like something that has just happened. What many do not understand (or refuse to understand) is that the past is gone. It has already happened and should no longer have a part of the life that you have now, or the you that you have become. Pastor Thomas will explain to you, in the simplest way possible, what it means to be a “new creation”. You are a new creation, not something that was fixed and then patched up several times over. 
 
Pastor Thomas will also talk to you about what it means to be “a new creature in Christ Jesus”. What significance does this have in your life? How can being a new creature in Christ Jesus help you become a better person overall? How can this strengthen your faith and belief? And what does it mean to be a new creature without the unnecessary attachments to negative actions and feelings. 
 
“I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. I am a new creation. I am unshakeable because my new creature originated with God.”
                            - Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach

Kept Wherever I Go - 110

KEPT IN SAFETY WHEREVER I GO – JUNE 06, 2022
 
“For He will give His angels [especial] charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve you in all your ways [of obedience and service].
                                - Psalm 91:11
 
Hello, everyone! It’s a brand new month, so we’ve prepared a brand new episode of 2 Empower U. Today, Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will talk to you about safety, protection, and the Lord’s angels. He will share with you important insights on how the Lord and His angels keep you safe – far from harm – no matter where you are. 
 
Acknowledging the Lord’s Angels
 
In a way, today’s episode is a simple way of acknowledging and thanking the Lord’s angels for everything that they do for us – for you and me. No matter where you are or what you are doing, regardless of what circumstances you are in, the angels of God are always watching over you, making sure that you are protected. This is what it is like to be a faithful child of God. 
 
Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will remind you of the importance of believing and always abiding by the Word of God, which is what the angels listen to and hear. If you faithfully embrace God and live by His words, the Lord’s angels will never leave you, even when you think you’re about to drown. They will always hold you and bring you back up.
 
“I am kept, guarded, and watched over by these angels. They are always holding me up. They keep me in a perfect state of being because they know my position as a child of God.”
 
                                - Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach
 
Be grateful every day for the Lord’s angels who watch over you!

I Am God’s Divine Nature - 108

MAY 23, 2022 – I AM GOD’S DIVINE NATURE
 
“According to His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”
- II Peter 1:3-4
Hello, everyone! It’s the last Monday of May, which means we’re about to start a new and exciting month. We’d like you to start the last week of the month with good and inspiring thoughts, and new learnings from today’s episode of 2 Empower U. 
 
Today, Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will help you understand your roles as a “partaker” of God’s divine nature. What does it mean to be a partaker? Of what value is this to you? How can being a partaker of God’s divine nature help you grow and mature in God’s eyes? What is the divine nature of God? These are just some of the questions that you will (finally) find answers to after listening to Pastor Thomas shares his insights and personal experiences with you.
 
Partaker and the Nature of God
 
Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will talk to you about what it means to be a partaker, or a companion, partner, or sharer. The nature of God is another truth that the pastor would like you to understand and embrace. God’s nature is equivalent to divinity or divine nature. As a true believer of God, it is your right and responsibility to partake of or share this divinity with others. After all, God gave you His divine nature freely the moment that you took Him and made Him a part of your life.
 
Pastor Thomas will also talk to you about how you – or each one of us His children – possess natural characteristics, including the nature of God. Because you – all of us – are made in His likeness. You and I are created in His image. 
 
Lastly, the good pastor will also share his insights on God’s give of abundant life and how using this gift – the unity of our spirit, soul, and body – to accept and follow God’s will. To make good things happen to your – our – life. 
 
 “Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.”
- Romans 8: 5-6

Enemies In Your Mind - 107

MAY 16, 2022 – ENEMIES IN YOUR MIND
 
“It takes faith to believe God’s word.”  
- Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach 
 
“Hope looks forward, faith knows it has already received and acts accordingly.”
- Florence Scovel Shinn
 
Good day, everyone! How are you this Monday? Hope things are doing well at your end. Anyway, it’s the 3rd Monday of May and we have prepared something special for you here at 2 Empower U. Today’s episode will have Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach talking about the “enemies in your mind”. 
 
How often have you found yourself thinking about good, happy blessings only for your thoughts to be interrupted by all the negativity you can imagine? It can be anything – your pet dog or cat getting sick, being mugged on the streets, children dying of hunger, an earthquake, or trouble or a fight with someone you love. These are all considered enemies that cloud your mind and weaken your faith. And these are what Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach’s insights will focus on today.
 
How to Handle Enemies
 
Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach will share valuable pointers that can help you improve the way you handle the enemies in your mind. He will use real-life situations that make it easier to understand and visualize what you should do or are expected to do. He also gives several suggestions of actions that you can adapt:
 
Come to an agreement with yourself
Don’t be an enemy to yourself
Don’t oppose yourself
Everything works in and through the mind
 
“You are the adversary that you must agree with.”
- Pastor Thomas A. DeLoach
 
It is also important to have great faith in the Lord. Pastor Thomas has always stressed this out, even in earlier episodes of 2 Empower U.
 
“Great peace have they who love thy Lord and nothing shall offend them.”
- Psalm 119:165
