Priceless faith It is important to remember that the promise land was God’s initiative. God desires all good things for us (all good and perfect gift is from above).

We had an amazing time. Our apostle preached on contagious power. We learned that doing things in the name of Jesus is a consciousness we must imbibe. How Jesus did not just die for us; He died as us. That He took our debt and died our death, and by baptism, He brought us into a new possibility. So what we see Him do, we can also do. As such, we can refuse to live an ordinary life.

Is it an insult or a compliment to be called “the Salt of the earth”? In the old days, salt was incredibly expensive, such that it could serve as currency. This implies that it’s a huge compliment - the Church is important; we are not a distraction but a blessing. Matt 5:12-13. To be Salt requires that you are joyful in persecution. The world does not know the truth, and they may never do but don't because of that lose your stance. Don't begin to compromise to blend in because they don't underst...

Why bother to pray? 1. For God's sake You might not know what you are saying, but it does not change the fact that he hears. God is listening, you are not doing it for activity's sake. (1 Cor 14:2, Heb 12:2, Psalm 42:1) 2. For People's sake. You must see how your prayer might be what the person beside you needs. Maybe someone in your family needs it, for the body of Christ. 3. For your own sake There is no time of prayer that leaves you the same way. When you spend time praying, you avert the pl...

One of the most emotional texts in the scriptures is John 21:15-17 for these reasons: 1. This was the first time Jesus spoke to Peter after he betrayed him. 2. Jesus had just risen from the dead. Jesus wanted Peter to prove his love for Him by caring for his sheep. If Jesus is indeed the love of our life, we must see that the church is a big deal to him. Hence we can establish two things from John 21:15-17 1. Corporate worship * Church is a group of reverent, obedient, and committed people gathe...

Before man began person-to-person interaction, he first interacted with God. In fact, man-to-God interaction is more natural than man-to-man’s. What is strange is a man who doesn’t hear God. The man God made was naturally designed to be supernatural. However, the fall of man introduced a new reality. The good news is this; in the new creation, God has restored man to his factory settings. Now, by his spirit within, you have the capacity to hear God and do miraculous things again.

Well, it shouldn't, because fear is not an anchor in Christianity, hope, faith, and love are. 1 Cor 13:13 THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF HOPE Ordinary hope means wanting something to happen and having a good reason that it might.
