Winter Bible Seminar 2017 Recap

"I realized the importance of my call and heard how much God loved me."
—Vanessa Anseline

Every year, men and women from other countries fly in to attend Winter Bible Seminar. For first time attendee, Vanessa Anseline, it was a truly revitalizing experience. Traveling all the way from Gold Coast, Australia, she had no idea how massive Rhema was. "It was a little scary, driving on the wrong side of the road and not having my GPS work," she laughed. Coming from a smaller church, she saw how big this faith family really is!

"All of the people at Rhema came alongside me and made me feel so welcomed," Vanessa shared. "I feel very encouraged and like I'm not alone." She had such a wonderful time, she plans on coming back to Winter Bible Seminar next year!

• Our dates for Winter Bible Seminar 2018 are February 18—23.
• If you missed any of the services this year or would like to watch them again, you can do so at vimeo.com/rhema.
• Messages are also available to purchase as WBS mp3's.

Are You Ready to Receive?

We all face a choice. We can be satisfied where we are, or we can choose to move to a new experience with God. We are still His people, no matter which direction we take. But we are the ones who decide whether we will enjoy all of His blessings.

I know that sometimes it can seem as if there is no way out of our situation. But look at what Second Corinthians 6:2 (NEB) says: "The hour of favour has now come; now, I say, has the day of deliverance dawned." The dawn of a new day is here! Dawn means a new beginning.

The Light of a New Day Has Come

 Dawn means the old darkness has faded away and the light of a new day has come. We can rise from the darkness that we've been in—the darkness of hardships, trials, tribulation, and all the other difficulties the devil is throwing at us. We can enter that new day!

It's time for us to wake up and realize that God is not only with us—He's ready to deliver us and set us free! He deals in abundance, and He is ready to bring us the maximum, superabundant, over-the-top blessing. He is always ready. The question is, are we ready to receive?

You see, it's up to us to take action and receive. In His Word, God has given us all the direction we need to receive His blessings. If we wait for Him to just drop the blessings on us, it will be too late. We must decide to go after them. Now is the time for us to believe God and speak His Word in order to receive the blessings He has for us!

If you are ready to receive, I encourage you to dig into your personal Bible reading with assistance of our web articles and devotionals.  Your sure to go higher in faith and spiritual victories as you dig deeper into His Word!

And remember, the reason we have any blessings to receive is that Jesus defeated the devil for us. He triumphed over him at the cross. God has given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

 "The 2016 A Call to Arms Men's Conference was nothing short of amazing! For three days, men from around the world heard life-changing truths, uplifting messages, and experienced powerful times of worship. They gained tools to help them successfully sail the ocean of life and handle the wind and waves of adversity.

The fired-up men left better equipped to guide their marriages, children, finances, and careers. They also learned how to be a godly voice in government.

Here's a sample of what men experienced this year. Be sure to join us next year for A Call to Arms 2017, to be held November 2-4 on the Rhema USA campus in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
