Along your journey there are going to be times where you come to a place where you need counsel. It's critically important who you listen to. It will direct your future. It will lay forth the path of your destiny in God.

Jesus said that his death and resurrection would affect a fundamental shift about our relationship to God. That it would change from being external to being internal. Jesus said, "You will understand I'm in the father, but I'm in you and you're in me. We are one in the spirit." That's the new birth. It's not religion.

God is soon coming to set everything right. The justice that your heart longs for is coming in the final judgment. God's going to set up a kingdom with his son on the throne and he's going to rule in righteousness. There will be no sin, no evil, no rebellion, no murder, no sorrow, no sickness, no death, and no crying. What a glorious day.

Jesus said, "I've come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly." More abundantly means beyond measure, overflowing, more than you need. Are you living in the overflowing life Jesus promised you? Or are you feeding on empty counterfeits, leaving you dry and unsatisfied inside?

If we're willing to ask God to to help us, he will strengthen us because he's a compassionate God. He helps us in our fears and our weaknesses because that's who he is.

In the Old Testament, they had one altar to worship at. It was in Jerusalem. It was God's altar before the temple. In the New Covenant, we have one altar to worship at. It's the cross of Jesus Christ. It's the finished work at Calvary. It's the body and blood of Jesus poured out at Calvary. That's the place of our washing. That's the place of our cleansing. That's the place where we're fed the body and blood of Christ. That's the place of our victory over every sin.

Believers are often shocked when the enemy is permitted to attack them even though they're walking faithfully with God. Sometimes the result of walking faithfully with God is that more trouble comes from the devil. But don't lose heart. God is setting us up for a greater victory to bring greater honor to his name.

Many people have only a confession of godliness but no power to live a godly life. These people are deceived. They're confident they're right with God when they're just as lost as the atheist or the agnostic. Jesus came to change us from the inside out to make us new creatures in Christ. God seeks to dwell with the one who is humble and of a contrite spirit and who trembles at His word.

Sometimes we make seeking the Lord all about the need for the moment, the thing that is pressing, the financial difficulty, the healing, the answer, the wisdom that's needed. But it's so much more than that. We we need to move past the seeking God for the gift or the answered prayer and into "I want God".

Why do we give? Spiritual people give first to bless God for all that he's blessed them with and to gain true riches. True riches are people won to Christ through the everlasting gospel. People granted eternal life instead of eternal condemnation.

One of the greatest deceptions is that more possessions will lead to a more fulfilling life. Having wealth is not evil, but wealth having us, is.

God isn't waiting for you to get more experience so he can use you, he's waiting for you to believe him so he can use you.

We live in a world full of temptation, of seductions. To walk in repentance is to continually withdraw or turn your soul from sin.

Jesus, the good shepherd, pursues the one who is lost to save them and to make them his. He's not about crowds. He's not about masses. He's about individuals.

A trembling heart does not turn aside even when it has failed in sin. It remembers what great things God has done.

The scriptures say the law came by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Grace is what makes the gift of God so great and the message so joyful. Grace gives us the treasure and the joys of heaven based on the merit of another.

Jesus talks about believing almost 100 times in the gospels. He challenged people on being a believer more than anything else in the Bible.

God is longing to pour out His glory on the earth. He chooses to do it through those who believe, those who call on his name in fervent prayer.

Jesus warned that in the last days that an abundance of false prophets would seek to draw people after themselves. Even people who speak a prophetic word can be false teachers. Are you able to discern the truth?

Simplicity of heart means single and sincere devotion. The opposite of a simple faith is a heart cluttered with multiple cares, affections and distractions.

Though Rahab's name means "wide and proud" she chose to humble herself and go the narrow way.

Some contemporary voices claim that God has abandoned Israel, no longer having any concern for its future, because Israel has largely rejected Jesus Christ. But does this perspective align with biblical teaching?

Jesus is coming soon for his pure and spotless bride. Now is the time to share the Gospel with urgency.

Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone. Trying to earn it only leads to doubting and believing that Christ's sacrifice is not enough. Are you truly saved?

Standing in the storm of suffering? Jesus heals broken hearts and frees the oppressed. He lifts you from prisons of bitterness to an age of grace where forgiveness flows freely. Embrace the hope that God’s mercy meets you today—forgiveness without fear.Scriptures:Luke 4:18-19John 12:47-48John 3:17-18Acts 13:38Eph 1:7Acts 26:18 ESVActs 2:38 ESVActs 10:43 ESVCol 1:19-20 NKJV2 Cor 5:18-19 Phil 4:13 Rom 12:19Rom 12:20,21Matt 6:15 2 Sam 13:1,2 ESV2 Sam 13:32 Sam 13:4,52 Sam 13:6,72 Sam 13:10-232 Sam 13:28-332 Sam 13:38,39 2 Sam 14:1 ESV2 Sam 14:142 Sam 14:212 Sam 14:23,242 Sam 14:28Isa 61:1-4 NKJVIsa 61:7

Remember who you were—this keeps you grateful, humble, and ready to share Christ. Remember your rescue from the pit.Scriptures:John 12:262 Pet 1:5-9 1 Tim 1:12,13 1 Tim 1:14-16 1 Thess 2:10 ESV 2 Sam 9:1-13 NKJV2 Sam 19:24-302 Sam 19:31-38

Hiding in confusion or darkness? Return to Him where your heart finds rest. His cross is your foundation, not busyness or fear. Walk in the light. John 12:23-26John 12:26 ESVGen 3:8 ESVJohn 17:24 ESV Rev 14:4 ESVJohn 8:12 NKJV John 12:35 NKJVJohn 12:36 NKJVPsalm 25:8-9 ESVPsalm 119:105 NKJVJohn 16:12-14 ESV2 Thess 2:9-12 ESVJohn 12:26 ESVPsalm 32:8,9 NKJVMatt 11:28-30 NKJV1 John 1:6 NKJV1John 2:9-11 ESVJohn 21:17-22 NKJVIsa 50:10 NKJV2 Sam 22:29Mic 7:8Prov 4:18 ESVProv 3:5,6 

When the world turns against you, choose to see Jesus's glory in the brokenness. Walk through suffering knowing Christ's cross reveals the world's deepest need.Scripture References:John 12:37 NKJVJohn 12:39-41John 12:44-45John 6:40John 3:3 John 12:27-33 ESVJohn 15:12-14 John 17:20-231 Pet 4:12-14Acts 9:16 ESVCol 1:24 ESVPhil 3:10 NKJV

Standing for truth isn't comfortable—it means facing backlash for speaking God’s truth in a divided nation, risking criticism for standing against cultural decay, and sometimes losing friends who refuse to follow Jesus. True courage comes from knowing God’s power is greater than the world’s opposition, and that our mission is to be bold and courageous in a world that wants us to stay silent.Scripture References:Ephesians 4:1-2

Prov 12:27 NKJV Heb 11:6 Prov 10:4Rev 3:17-18Col 2:3 Col 3:3 Prov 13:4Mark 6:31 NIV Heb 4:9-11Jer 29:11-14Prov 22:29 2 Tim 2:152 Pet 1:10 2 Pet 1:5-8 ESV 2 Pet 1:91 Tim 4:8 NIV 1 Tim 4:10 NIV1 Tim 4:15 NIV2 Pet 1:10,112 Pet 3:11 2 Pet 3:14 Rev 19:7Heb 4:16 Heb 7:251 Thess 5:23-24

Scripture reference: Revelation 2

Following Jesus isn’t a comfortable path – it involves denying oneself, confronting sin, and potentially facing opposition. True discipleship is about embracing a life of self-denial and surrendering to God’s plan, even when it means letting go of what we think we want.Scripture References: Mark 8:34 NKJVMark 8:34 AMPLIFIEDMark 8:35-36Luke 14:26-27Luke 14:33 Mark 10:21 Mark 10:22Mark 10:23-27Luke 9:23 Psalm 40:8 Phil 2:13Rom 8:13 Judges 17:1-3 ESV Judges 17:4,5 ESVJudges 17:6-10 ESVJudges 17:11 ESVJudges 17:12,13 ESVJudges 18:17-19 NKJV Judges 18:20Mark 10:28-31

This message explores how God defines blamelessness – not as sinless, but as someone who actively fears God and avoids evil. It reveals that a life of integrity isn’t about avoiding mistakes, but about consistently choosing to live in accordance with God's will.Scripture references:1 Thessalonians 5:23-24Job 1:8Proverbs 9:10James 1:5Romans 12:9James 3:11(back to) Job 1:82 Corinthians 6:17Psalm 4:3Colossians 1:19-23Genesis 17:1Deuteronomy 18:12-141 Thessalonians 2:13-142 Peter 3:13-14Philippians 2:12-162 Samuel 12:13-14Proverbs 11:3-6Proverbs 11:20Proverbs 13:6Proverbs 28:101 Thessalonians 2:10

This message explores a surprising truth about Christ’s sacrifice – a battle fought in the spiritual realm, and how embracing grace, not striving under the law, unlocks true rest and strength in God’s love.Scripture references:Gen 3:15 NKJV 1 Pet 3:18-19 Acts 2:27 KJVCol 2:13-15 1 Sam 4:21-221 Sam 5:1,21 Sam 5:3,41 Sam 5:5-7Matt 12:29Luke 11:21-22Heb 2:14 Heb 2:15Eph 2:2 Titus 3:3-5 Col 1:131 Pet 5:82 Tim 4:171 Pet 5:9James 4:6-7Luke 4:13Luke 4:141 Pet 5:8-91 Pet 5:101 Pet 5:11
