Who Do You/They Say That I Am?
A Word of Light Ministries
One day, Jesus asked His disciples two questions: “Who do people say that I am?” and “Who do you say that I am?” These questions are important as it relates to sustaining our walk with Jesus. It’s important that we know exactly who we are following. How can we trust someone if we have no idea who they are? More importantly, if we don’t know who Jesus is for ourselves, then we can become easily swayed by other people’s negative comments about Jesus.

God's Will
A Word of Light Ministries
The devil thrives in our self-confidence. In fact, he wants us to become so self-confident that we no longer rely on God in our everyday lives. This is when we get ourselves into trouble. This is when we fall into sin. This is when we stray so far away from him that we make terrible life altering decisions. In today’s sermon, we discuss how staying in God’s will protects us from ourselves. ---------- We're on an incredible journey of exchanging our plans for God's plan and embracing His holiness.

Resist The Devil, Reduce The Struggle.
A Word of Light Ministries
Let’s be honest. Most of the problems we encounter are self-inflicted. We often struggle in life because we don’t take the time to fortify our spiritual defenses. Life has a way of slowly chipping away at our armor. If we’re not intentional about routine repairs, we run the risk of our defenses weakening. When this happens, our resistance runs low, ultimately setting us up for failure. In today’s sermon, we discuss how resisting the devil is the key to living a life that is almost free of self-induced struggle. ------------ We're on an incredible journey of exchanging our plans for...

Healthy Heart // pt 2
A Word of Light Ministries
There’s an expression about having “itching ears.” In its slang form, having “itching ears” means that a person is eager to hear any and everything. In 2 Timothy 4:3-4, Paul wrote, “For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear what they want to hear. They will turn away from hearing the truth and will turn aside to myths.” The key to having a healthy heart is to not allow it to develop “itching ears.” In today’s sermon, we continue to explore...

Healthy Heart // pt. 1

info_outlineWhat does it mean to be a servant of Jesus, and are you willing to do what’s necessary to be His servant? Being a servant of Jesus will require our most prized possession, our will. When the Lord (or His servant) approaches you, will you respond like Mary by saying, I am the Lord’s servant, and I am willing to accept whatever He wants (Luke 1:38) or will you walk away like many others?
