Speak Life Church
Thanks for listening to the Speak Life Church Podcast ( ) Psalm 96 O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth. 2 Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day. 3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people. 4 For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. 5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens. 6 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. 7 Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the...

Choose to thank God
Speak Life Church
Psalm 73:16-17 Candid conversation about what’s going on and being thankful and grateful to God. Choosing to appreciate God no matter what. Two sides of everything that happens. It’s our perception. King James Version 16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; 17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all thy works.

Hope You Don't Drown
Speak Life Church
This title came to me after the Message so I guess I know what my next live sermon will be about. This week we are continuing on about hope. Having an attitude of gratitude so that you can have healthy hope in the Lord. Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you and worked for those who take refuge in you, in the sight of the children of mankind! (Psalm 31:19)

What Are You Hoping For?
Speak Life Church
“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him” (1 John 5:14-15).

Romans 10:2 - For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
For those who have been Catholic or worshiped in a denomination that related to - you know this is the Lenten Season. It’s 40 days before easter. Starts right after the orgy and bacchanalia which is Mardi Gras - ending on Fat Tuesday. All man made stuff.
40 days- ceremonious stuff -giving up stuff, man made rules
I have learned that sometimes having too much information gives you a paralysis of analysis.
You don’t know who to trust.
You latch on to things that you like and can understand, YouTube videos, speakers, IG people, and you integrate that into your faith. But it is not biblical, it is not sound doctrine.
I heard that…
- This guy on tik Tok said…
- I don’t have to go to church because…
- I don’t have to support a ministry because they are all crooks, you heard that ministry trying to get a plane?
- God knows my heart…
The devil lives for our passion, our burn out, our losses …
When we start new things, our faith walk included -join a new church, many were eager to learn, respond, and volunteer. Over time, however, eagerness waned. They lost their zeal.
What is Spiritual Zeal?
Spiritually speaking, at the beginning of our relationship with the LORD, we were eager, too. Our hearts were challenged and changed; we mourned over our wrongs, immediately sought forgiveness from God, and changed our ways.
We felt clean! We were excited! We wanted to pray, witness, read God’s Word, do good works, influence our world, and honor the Lord in any way we could!
How do we renew and keep our zeal for him? That was precisely the concern of the Israelites. What they did may serve as an example to help us.

Four ways to keep our zeal
Nehemiah told them this was not a time for grieving; this was a time for rejoicing, for they were seeking to obey God and were enjoying his favor! Their grief turned to joy. Nehemiah 8:9-12 (NASB)
1. Keep our zeal by making a commitment
2. Keep our zeal by holding ourselves accountable
3. Keep our zeal by assigning responsibilities
4. Keep our zeal by being attentive
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. (Romans 12:1- 2, 10- 11, NIV)
Don't watch the clock; do what it does. ...
“Just because you're taking longer than others does not mean you're a failure. Keep going.”
