2-23-20 Mind of Christ

Isaiah tells us God's thoughts are higher than ours. Some take this to mean that God is simply beyond us, and His ways are unknown to man. Surely, God is beyond us, but I see this verse as a call to think in a better way, to lift our thinking to another level. His Spirit is the key and the avenue in which we access the thoughts and ways of God.

2-16-20 Breaking Limitations

Is it possible that we are at times the cause of some of the delay in our lives? Do we sometimes tie God's hands? At the same time, God will use every season of our lives to develop us and build us - even those that we may have put ourselves in with questionable decisions.

2-9-20 Have You Heard?

Reading God's Word is a needed habit in the life of a believer. We should take it in through the eyes on a regular basis - but it is especially good when we hear God's Words spoken to our spirit as we read. So, for he who has ears to hear, let him hear!

2-2-20 Sword of the Spirit, part 2

When it comes to prayer, we will always have those needs that we ask God to meet. There's absolutely nothing wrong, and our Father has given us this privilege. But I also believe that there  are some things we need to speak to rather than pray about. This is where the Sword of the Spirit comes into play.

1-26-20 Sword of the Spirit

Hebrews 4:12 tells us the Word of God is sharper than a two-edged sword. It's also likened unto a sword in the book of Ephesians. The Bible is more than just a normal book. It's a weapon of warfare for fighting spiritual battles. But like any weapon, we must learn to use it. 

1-19-20 Climbing with Jesus

In Matthew 5, we see where Jesus climbed a mountain to get away from the crowd for awhile. It says that the committed climbed with Him. Because of that, they received a special session with added insight from the Lord. There's a benefit to climbing with Jesus!

1-12-20 To Fear or Not to Fear

Exodus 20:20 says "do not be afraid" (in reference to God) and at the same time suggests that the fear of God is a good thing. So apparently, fearing God is different than being afraid of God. One is needed and beneficial while the other can be detrimental to a healthy relationship with our Creator. Fear God - yes! Be afraid of God - No!

1-5-20 Three Things Needed

Our General Superintendent, Doug Clay, has highlighted three things that are necessary for the Assemblies of God Fellowship as we move into a new year and decade. Those three things are the focus of this message.

 

12-29-31 Christianity Today

Everyone has their thoughts about various things. God has given us the ability to reason, to think, and to come up with ideas. This is an awesome part of what makes us human. And while amazing, the potential problem is that we elevate our thoughts to a place higher than God's Word. We must remember and embrace Isaiah 55:8,9.

12-22-19 Immanuel

God is in control - always. This doesn't mean things are always good, just that He is never caught unaware. And regardless of what takes place, God's plan will be fulfilled. From creation until the birth of Jesus until this very moment and from now on, God is in control.
