“Occupy Till I Come”

This message that I spoke Sunday (07/12/15) is of vital importance for every bible believing, God fearing child of God concerning these "end of days" in which we live. Satan is using everything and anything he can to strike fear, frustration, helplessness into Gods people. He wants us to stay out of government, schools, arts/entertainment (all 7 pillars of society). He wants to confuse, divide and shut up the body of christ. But, if we, (followers of Christ) understood we were" created for such time as this", we were commanded to "raise the standard", to "occupy till Jesus comes" and we are not to fear man but fear God we would take back what the enemy has stolen from us. The light should not be running from the dark but the light shines in the darkness. The 7 pillars of society is our missions field not matter what country you are in. God said fight the good fight of faith, He didn't say hide until I come back. You and I are not responsible for the outcome but for the act of obedience, to come up against evil, to be salt and light. Please listen to the Sunday message - it is life changing!

“Joy” Fruit Of The Spirit (Week #7)

As you mature in your life as a follower of Christ, their our measurable, testable and observable “things” that prove that maturation. One of those “things” is Joy. Joy doesn’t mean feeling good all the time. That’s impossible! You can’t chase a feeling - God said your feelings profit you nothing (they get you into trouble) it’s the spirit - God’s Word and His Promises that give you life, that give hope and ultimately joy when life isn’t that great. Joy is the settled assurance that God is in control of all the details of my life, the quiet confidence that ultimately everything is going to be alright, and the determined choice to praise God in every situation. Listen to this weeks Wednesday bible study on Joy and find out how you can have it. Note: The lesson begins at 15:28 -  current events are first.

“Obedience To God’s Commands Brings His Blessing To Do His Plan”

Gods Plan for your life is for you to be obedient to His Word, the Bible (which is the plan). As your soul prospers, a divine nature change, God said He would prosper you in all areas of your life. Relationally, Physically, Financially and Spiritually. He is causing you to prosper so that He may lift you up in due season to bring light in a dark world. He never said it would be easy but He said His grace (power to do the plan) would multiply or prosper in everything you need to go where He has called you to. Be obedient and let the Blessing of the Lord overtake you - that is His Plan. Listen to this weeks msg which is the final week of this series on Living and Walking In God Plan For Your Life.

“Faithfulness” Fruit Of The Spirit (Week #6)

The bible says that God is faithful (all the time).  The evidence or proof that God is working in us,  is we are faithful as well. The fruit of the spirit in Galatians 5 that Paul speaks of, said there is proof or a measuring stick to see if we are in Christ or changing from our old way of living - the natural man. Faithfulness is one of those areas. Faith is trust and obedience, and Faithfulness is a character trait, or fruit, that shows faith over the long run. Our faith shows that we trust, faithfulness shows that we can be trusted. Please watch/ listen to this Wednesday teaching to see if you are faithful/obedient to God. Lesson begins at 25:15 mark (current events are first).

Stop the Strife in Your Life

Do you know someone who is argumentative? always has to be right? prideful? maybe that's you ? God says that we need to stop causing strife. God has a plan for you and it's to prosper you for His purpose but He can't if you cause strife. God also commands us to confront those who are causing strife - at church, home, place of business. If we allow ourselves or someone to continue in strife, God's Word says that it is  a fire from hell and it will destroy everything around it. God has a great plan for you and in order to walk in it we need to get rid of strife (pride, always having to be right, confrontational spirit). Some people bring joy where ever they go and some when ever they go. Please listen to this Sunday message on how to get rid of strife in your life.

“Peace” Fruit Of The Spirit (Week #5)

Peace is something everyone tries to obtain - from countries, work environments, classrooms, households and in our own personal lives. How do we obtain Peace ? Gods Word says that He, God Himself can give us peace - long lasting peace. The world or our natural man tries to make peace by trying a temporal fix, but it doesn’t last. Jesus said that He leaves the follower of Christ His Peace which is His Word. Gods Word is truth and it has the answer for everything that is causing confusion in your life. Confusion or not knowing what to do steals your peace. God is not the author of confusion but the giver of Peace through obedience to His Word. Please listen or watch this Wednesdays teaching on Peace. Note: The lesson begins at the 14:24 mark following current events.

The bible says you shall be known by your fruit or to the extent you allow God's Word to be manifested in your life.

How to Know and Live in God's Plan

All of us at some point in our lives have asked God "Whats The Plan?" or "I need to know what you want me to do". Just some of those "things" are: marriage, job, finances, relationships, raising children, relocating etc. Gods Word already has the plan for everything we could ever think of or ask. His Plan or Will is for us to be obedient to His Word or Commands and all of the other "things" will be taken care of. We often ask God on what to do when He has already told us, but we are looking for a different way, our way or the seemingly easier way. Gods plan, is not to harm us but to prosper us, His Word is the Plan for every single one of us. As we become more obedient we move along in the next phase or page of the blue print. Watch this Sundays message on how to know and walk in Gods plan.

“Longsuffering/Patience” Fruit Of The Spirit (Week #3)

God is patient with us and He commands us to be patient with others. He says in His Word that He is patient because He wants us to repent. Patience or Long-suffering doesn't mean the absence of discipline or correction because He said He only corrects those He loves. He shows His patience by disciplining us instead of walking away from us when we sin. Please listen to this Wednesdays message on Patience and Long-suffering - if we are patient with others God will be patient with us. Current Events are the first 20 minutes of the recording.

“Love” The Fruit Of The Spirit (Week #1)

Gods Word says that you and I, those who profess to be followers or imitators of Jesus Christ will be identified as Christians by "something". He tells us in Galatians chapter 5 that we will be known to the world or identified by our fruit which is the work or change that we allow Jesus presence (the holy spirit) to do in us. In order for the believer to be a witness to a nonbeliever world we have to set ourselves apart from our old self in 9 areas which make up the fruit of the spirit. We can't just work on one - it's one fruit with 9 elements or components. The first week is love, not what we think love is, but what God says it is. If we love God then we will keep His commands, if we love God then we are commanded to love people and His Word tells us how to love others. So, do you love God?
