We’ve gone through some things in 2024 but we all have unfinished business that might carry through to the new year if we don’t actively choose to let go. The thing is, our unfinished business is not just going to go away at the start of the new year, that healing, forgiveness, that sin: if it’s not intentionally removed will remain. Like the Israelites that came across Jericho, there are walls we face that can only be overcome through obedience. As we lean not on our or understanding and see a circumstance through the eyes of God, it begins to give us the strength to...

Read: John 1:9 The first Christmas wasn’t this wondrous occasion full of gifts and celebration but it was a moment where Mary had to reveal some difficult news to Joseph about the miracle baby she was carrying. He didn’t believe her yet he had to submit to obedience when the Lord asked him to trust His plan. The first Christmas was filled with feelings of betrayal and confusion but there was a greater purpose that was about to unfold. Could it be that you are running from something and cursing something that looks like it is from the enemy is actually from God?Being chosen to change...

Without vision people perish, which means they expire living hopeless lives and many times they end up waiting around dead things expecting it to give them life. Religion is man made and as we go through the motions we might become dry in our faith but as a river of living water Jesus will bring life wherever He shows up. Let’s not be like the people surrounded at the pool waiting for an angel to save them when the one who carries healing we desire,, is in the room waiting to encounter us. We can be people that hear about Jesus but because our eyes are so focused on breakthrough...

All throughout the Bible God would constantly ask the Israelites to remember. Because sometimes looking back at the things that God got you through can give you the courage and confidence to believe that He’s going to get you through the now. But there are times that the Lord says, “I need you to forget the former things and perceive the new.” If we are looking back we will never be able to move forward into what He’s wanting to do through us. When we start living in a way that fills our house with light, we can be entrusted to change the neighborhood and then the world! The...

God is everywhere and is not confined to a building because of that we see Jesus at a wedding, where He ends up performing one of His very first miracles. The miracle that turned water into wine wasn’t as simple as Jesus snapping His fingers but instead He gave the servants a process, a series of steps to follow that brings this miracle to pass. Oftentimes this ends up being the case with our own lives; we might be broke and He gives us a process to heal our finances, we might need community and He gives us a process to getting plugged into the family. Here are some things to remember about...

The 7th hour represents the God hour over our life as 7 is the number of completion. Sometimes in life we find ourselves stuck on a road without end but with, there is always something to expect at the finish line. It's at the 7th hour that miracles take place, it’s where the sun stands still and we see God move. The Roman Official that came to Jesus for a miracle heard the stories but he wasn’t a follower of Jesus yet he came humbly to God as the answer for his heart's cry. What Jesus ended up giving this man was a word, a precious word that was planted on rich soil that then...

The Lord longs to give us His Holy Spirit power, not just power for selfish gain but power so that we can be a witness in testifying about the truth of God. It’s okay if we don’t have the personality of the prerequisite in our biblical education to do so but all we need is the power to go out and preach this word with our lives. Along with the power we also need to be able to discern where the Holy Spirit is leading us because some things can simply be a good idea instead of a God idea. Sometimes the call of God might lead us to encounter closed doors which is why it is important to start...

Revelation 3:14-17 Those who God loves, he disciplines through truth in love by giving us an honest picture of our lives. As we continue this series on the churches we see that in everything God says He is longing for intimacy with us. With the church of Laodicea He does commend them for their works but because they were a church that worked hard yet has chosen to be lukewarm, He ultimately rebukes them the most. God addresses the attitude in which they had succumbed to living their lives and implores them to become either hot or cold. Christianity is an all in the way of being, you cannot be...

The first Christmas wasn’t this wondrous occasion full of gifts and celebration but it was a moment where Mary had to reveal some difficult news to Joseph about the miracle baby she was carrying. He didn’t believe her yet he had to submit to obedience when the Lord asked him to trust His plan. The first Christmas was filled with feelings of betrayal and confusion but there was a greater purpose that was about to unfold. Could it be that you are running from something and cursing something that looks like it is from the enemy is actually from God?Being chosen to change the world means that it is a call to change everything we touch, it is a warrior's life, a life filled with the cost of saying no to convenience and yes to Him. Sometimes when we’re chosen to change the world we don’t feel very chosen in the moment. Sometimes in order for God to use a person greatly He has to break them deeply because we are the vessel and He’s the vine and the only way for the snoring comes out is through that crushing.
1. God will always hide us before He uses us.
2. When God gives gifts it doesn’t always evokes praise at first
3. God wraps our gifts in a way that wont be pleasing to man, but when we open them we will see His glory!
Many times in life we get jealous of other people’s “gift wrapping” because what we see on the outside is truly not the gift. We need to open the gifts of God because we can enjoy the greatness within. Don’t let the paper it’s wrapped in make us run away from what it is. The enemy will try to distract us with things that glitter but will lead to death, so as a church we are not going to get stuck on the papers of rejection, fear, doubt or pain and we will embrace every gift He has for us!
