Pastor Gabriel Menchaca January 1st, 2023 The question that can help us most identify what is first in our life is where do I spend my time when I have a choice to spend my time? Church is a choice. Prayer is a choice. Reading the Bible is a choice. Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Seeking the Kingdom first - begins and ends with your intake of Scripture and your time in prayer. “He who began a good work in you, w...

Pastor Daniel Mancha July 17th, 2022 Matthew 16:13-16 NKJV “When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”” A disciple is: One who follows the teachings of another. One who accepts and as...

A Disciple: ABIDES in the words of Jesus (accept or act in accordance with (a rule, decision, or recommendation). LOVES other Believers/Disciples AIMS to become a friend of Jesus. Internal definition - how can you examine your life to see if you’re a disciple? John 8:31-32 31 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” NLT 31 Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “Y...
Romans 8:14-16 14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. The Spirit Himself - testifies with our Spirit. “There is nothing attractive about the Gospel to the natural man; the only man who finds the Gospe...
Ephesians 4:29 ESV 29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. 4:29 MSG 29 Watch the way you talk. Let nothing foul or dirty come out of your mouth. Say only what helps, each word a gift. 4:29 NLT 29 Don’t use foul or abusive language.

Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Essentially, the entirety of where we’re trying to say is this: Not that we would be perfect in our speech, but that we would at the very least recognize that God ultimately pays attention to and cares about what we say, how we say it, why we say it and who we’re saying it to. Whatever controls your tongue, controls your life. ----more---- A new Church located in Los...
God pays attention to and cares about what we say, how we say it, why we say it and who we’re saying it to. Matthew 12:33-37 33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit. 34 You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 35 The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil....
John 20:19 -23 NLT “That Sunday evening the disciples were meeting behind locked doors because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. Suddenly, Jesus was standing there among them! “Peace be with you,” he said. 20 As he spoke, he showed them the wounds in his hands and his side. They were filled with joy when they saw the Lord! 21 Again he said, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.” 22 Then he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.” 23 If you ...
Pastor Jeremy Ballon "The Arrival" - Palm Sunday The Arrival Luke 19:28-40 After telling this story, Jesus went on toward Jerusalem, walking ahead of his disciples. 29 As he came to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany on the Mount of Olives, he sent two disciples ahead. 30 “Go into that village over there,” he told them. “As you enter it, you will see a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks, ‘Why are you untying that colt?’ just say, ‘T...

Matthew 16:24-25 24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. To surrender is to observe, submit and follow the leadership and Lordship of Jesus over your life. “If not to God, you will surrender to the opinions or expectations of others, to money, to resentment, to fear, or to your own pride, lusts, or ego. You were ...
Once you realize who He really is. There’s no way that your treasures or your valuables or your idols or your earthly goals are still more important. “If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you. He will never go into partnership as a part Saviour of men. If He be something He must be everything, and if He be not everything He is nothing to you.” ― Charles Spurgeon Mark 14:3-9 3 And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, a woman came with an a...
From the "Quotidian" Series (4 parts) | recorded Sunday, September 26th, 2021 in Hawaiian Gardens, CA. Save all the sermon notes in your Bible app: https://my.bible.com/events/48771419 Battles happen daily. Wars can last a long time. Truth is a mirror not a microscope. Matthew 7:3-5 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own...
Francis Frangipane the author of the book "the three battlegrounds" said : “You will remember that the location where Jesus was crucified was called “Golgotha,” which meant “ place of the skull.” …the first field of conflict where we must learn warfare is the battle ground of the mind; i.e., the “place of the skull.” For the territory of the uncrucified thought-life is the beachhead of satanic assault in our lives. …We must be crucified in the place of the skull. We must be renewed in the spirit...
Our homes are not places to be absent from the conviction of the Holy Spirit. Rather, if we allow the Holy Spirit to convict us and lead us and teach us in our own home we create the ease of hearing this conviction in our daily life. Matthew 6:9-13 Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread, 12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lea...
We are faced daily with questions concerning our positions or stances on many different issues. How are we supposed to act justly? When everyone around is doing all they can to cheat? How am I supposed to be kind when I get so angry? And they’re angry at me? How am I supposed to be humble when everyone is so prideful around us? When humility is taken as inability or weakness? Matthew 6:9-13 Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come, your will be done...
Luke 15:3-7 ESV 3 So he told them this parable: 4 “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? 5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.’ 7 Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven...
Matthew 28:18-20 18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” FORWARD - Mission Once vision is established we can confidently move forward on Mission.

The world needs people anchored to Jesus ; Not turned by emotion or culture. Not moved by pressure or politics. Having depth in scripture and impact in culture. IN ACTS 9:10-19 GOD gives a vision to Ananias. Ananias has to move forward. In Acts 18:5-11 God gives a vision to Paul, Paul has to move forward. A lot of times we think just because God has put a vision in us it will just happen. A lot of times we are sitting on the vehicle God gave us to see the vision come into fruition. Forward movem...

Luke 23:34 34 And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments. If Jesus asked for forgiveness (for us) at His death, we should make it a daily practice to forgive as Fathers, Sons and followers of Jesus. Matthew 6:8-13 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heave...
Romans 5:12-15 12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men[a] because all sinned— 13 for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. 14 Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come. 15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's tr...
