Elevate Life Church

Pastor Sergio concludes his series telling us in order to have a relationship with God, He has to be our Father & King and we have to be His sons & daughters. Relationship with Jesus is about getting to know Him! Important things have appointments, when we have a relationship with God we have to set aside time for Him. We can't be in a relationship with Jesus and still have a relationship with our past worldly life. Sin shatters our connection with God and will take our marriages, we cannot believe the lies of the serpent(the devil). Blame is always a mark of sin in our lives. Repentance is how we deal with sin. God doesn't mine us having money, just don't let our money have us! Adam & Eve had dominion together in their marriage in the Garden..

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking to us about how we need to stay away from things that will mess up our judgement. Until we make the sacrifice to have a constant daily relationship with God, He can't change our nature. Change happens through discipleship! We cannot run from those who correct us. We have to understand and respect the order of God's marriage. We also have to lay down our lives the way Christ laid down His life for us and His church! We won't get anything in our relationship with God if all we do is come to church. Nothing in us can be fixed by God if we're ungrateful. Submission is an attitude of the heart!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking with us about how we have to accept certain life concepts by faith. We have to have Jesus in our marriage! We can't just have Jesus in our marriage on Sundays. God wants mankind to reflect the image of God, nothing does that more than a Godly marriage! God has to have our heart first, with Jesus in the center. Satan never attacked Adam until Eve, he saw the strike potentials. Satan hates when two people come together and Jesus is the center because they're unstoppable! Marriage should cause you to look more like God and act like God. The more we serve Jesus, the more we look like Him!

Pastor Sergio starts his new series talking to us about why a Godly marriage is much different than a traditional worldly marriage. When family is done right it fills your house with treasures, when it's done wrong it fills it with trauma and bitterness. Unless the Lord builds the house, our labor is in vain. You have a new culture if you follow Jesus! The institution of marriage is the most important institute created by God. We can't enforce Kingdom culture on the world's culture. The institution of marriage is more important than church culture, government, society and every financial institution. The secret of a successful marriage is not love! The reason God created marriage is to replicate His nature and image in the earth. The #1 reason for marriage for a Kingdom citizen is to serve God!

Pastor Tina continues this series talking to us about how we live a life of rhythm and change For everything in life there is a season. God appointed seasons for this time and sees seasons from eternity, from the beginning to the end. We can't move through time like God does. God works on His Kairos time, not the Chronos time we see. Knowing your season really matters. What season does God have you in? Do you allow circumstances to define your season? Seasons don't last forever they always have a beginning and an end. You have to ask yourself: What does God want us to experience in this season?

We are blessed with hearing powerful testimonies from some of our Elevate Life Church Serve Team as they pour out the reasons why they serve God!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking to us about why the throne of ourselves will never be fulfilling. As long as we're on the throne of our own heart and not the throne of God, we'll never get fulfillment! You have to give your heart to God in order to have a heart for God. Disobedience opens up the door to lack. We can't let excuses keep us from doing what God tells us to do. When we have a Biblical fear of God, we're submitting to His mission. We don't get to chance God's Word because of our past experiences.

Pastor Sergio begins this new series talking to us about how God's Word sets us up to have a heart for God. Sometimes the Word shows us how we actually look and pushes us in the direction to make us better. God is stronger than anything we will ever face! The power of God is released when He is first in our life! When something is the will of God, it doesn't mean it's always going to come true. If you want the will of God in your life, quit thinking it's just going to happen. When something other than God has your heart, you will never have peace!

Pastor Willard continues this series talking to us about how we have to locate where we are at in order for us to possess our promise. He talks to us about how even though we are walking into a season of promise, we still will have to face some battles. God brings us out of slavery to bring us in to our promise land but we have to obey God every step of the way. God has created us for a purpose to do good things! We have to obey God at His command. We have to understand who we are in Christ now and that we are in right standing with God. We have to make sure we don't have a sense of entitlement with God and that He owes us something. We have to protect out heart with gratitude to achieve this! We have to allow God to give us revelation and speak to us. Revelation will cause us to run toward God and carry His fire when He reveals Himself to us! How are you serving God on your own? God doesn't want us to just reach the promise land as individuals, He wants us to reach it with everyone in His Church! In order for us to possess our promise our comfort level must be challenged for us to be fruitful. If we're going through a battle, could it be that's where God wants us to be to go into our promise land? We have to recognize who is in front of us in our life so we can experience freedom in Him. Just Go with God and obey!

Pastor Sergio continues his series talking about how Jesus brought us out of slavery to bring us into our promise! Heaven is not the destination, it's the reward. If we just got saved and go to Heaven, what about the years we are here on the earth? Jesus didn't save us from sin and slavery to leave us in the wilderness! Life isn't just about getting our needs met. When we're not not fulfilled in Him, we turn into a complainer. We can't keep complaining or we'll miss our promise! Complaining takes the vision off of our promise. Comfort cannot fulfil us. There are things that have to happen before we can contend for our next promise. We have to progress from the food of bondage to the food of Revelation. When we get to Revelation, God opens up the windows of Heaven and provides clarity! When we feast on His Word we have to act on His word so we can activate it. Most of what God has us do isn't for us, it's for others.

Happy Easter! Pastor Sergio talks to us about how when we are living in a way that is contrary to God's Word, we are enemies of God. Thankfully, we have all been reconciled through Jesus! God's love is amazing, we can't qualify or earn it, He loves us even when we're doing things contrary to His Word! We can't doubt His Word. There were 7 types of people that showed up to hear Jesus teach in the Bible and doubted, are you one of these 7 types? We have to make sure we live under the Lordship of Jesus. To receive Jesus as our Lord, we have to submit to His Word! We have to be known by our fruits, not by our church attendance! If we're a follower of Jesus, we can tell by how we talk, how we live and where we go. We can't reduce Jesus to just our golden ticket to Heaven. We have to adjust our heart to know the real reason we serve Jesus, is to serve Jesus!
