Messiah’s House · Men and Women – Jason and Leanna Craft Men and women fight many battles that are unseen. Seeing our differences helps us to better understand each other. What we don’t understand, we can fail to honor and respect. This message deals with some of the hidden struggles that both men and women face. The post Men and Women appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Worship: A Matter Of The Heart – Justin Garcia All of us can find many different reasons to worship or not to worship God. One thing is for sure, there are external factors that can influence our worship heavily. The reality is only one thing matters to God: it’s the condition of our heart. We cannot be true worshippers if our worship is shaped by the traditions and expectations of men. The Lord doesn’t want worship born out of religious duty. He wants worship born out of sincerity, authenticity, and obedience. He’s seeking worshippers who will worship him in spirit and in truth.

Messiah’s House · Winning The War Within, Part 3 – Jason Craft This message deals with a certain mindset that keeps Believers from walking in the abundant life that Jesus came to give us. This is the third part of a three part message that reminds us that our hearts and minds are directly connected to our spiritual walk with God here on the Earth. This last past part of the message deals with a bitter mindset.  In this teaching we will see four ways to spot a bitter root and four things we need to understand concerning bitterness.

Messiah’s House · Winning the War Within, Part 2 – Jason Craft The Christian life is a process of renewing our minds and appropriating by faith that which God has provided by His grace. Our spiritual journey here on the Earth is directly connected to the way that we think. Living the abundant life requires us to have a certain mindset. We are called to set our minds on things above, not on earthly things. We should think like Heaven. This is the second part of a three part message on mindsets that keep Believers from victorious living. The post Winning the War Within – Part 2 appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Winning The War Within, Part 1 – Jason Craft Scripture tells us that as Believers we have victory through our faith in Jesus and that whatever is born of God overcomes the world.  Living in victory requires a certain mindset, it requires us to adjust our thoughts to His thoughts and our ways to God’s ways.  Overcoming the world requires us to renew our minds and see things from Heaven’s perspective.  This is the first part of a three part message on mindsets that keep us from walking in the abundant life.

Messiah’s House · The Day Hell Lost – Jason Craft Jesus told the disciples that He would die and that He would be raised on the third day. Jesus told the disciples how he would die and what would take place when He was lifted up. Jesus appeared to the disciples after He had risen and He spent forty days teaching them things concerning the Kingdom. After Christ ascended, the Church was birthed on the Day of Pentecost but in less than 20 years people were questioning if Christ was ever actually raised from the dead. This teaching deals with the resurrection of Christ and what became available to us through Him being lifted up on the cross. The post The Day Hell Lost appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Reigning In Life – Jason Craft From the first chapter of Genesis to the last chapter of Revelation, scripture makes it clear that mankind was created to reign. Many believers know that we will reign with Christ in the Millennium and that we will reign with Him forever and ever, but did you know that we were created to reign in life right now? This message deals with both God’s sovereignty and man’s dominion on the Earth. The post Reigning In Life appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · We Are Family – Stephen Tow As believers, many of us have discovered the powerful, life-changing truth of our identity in Christ. But how often do we reflect on the identity we share together as the body of Christ? In today’s message, “We Are Family,” we will explore our shared identity as the family of God. We’ll examine our need for God’s family, define what that family looks like, and confront the barriers that keep us from fully engaging in it. Join us as we gain fresh insight and a renewed perspective on God’s purpose for us as a church body—to know, embrace, and live out our identity as the family of God.

Messiah’s House · A Better Covenant – Royce Gooch Covenant is an important concept in scripture. Join us as we look at the concept of covenant in the Bible and see how the covenant we now live under is a better covenant than the one that Moses received in the wilderness, and how God’s love and grace ministers to us under this “better” covenant. The post A Better Covenant appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Utterance Gifts – Jason Craft We are called as God’s people to pursue the gifts of the Holy Spirit and therefore it is important that we understand what each gift means. The utterance gifts listed in 1st Corinthians chapter 12 are gifts that say something. This teaching deals with prophesy, different kinds of tongues, and the interpretation of tongues. Each gift is defined in this message and there are biblical examples given concerning each one of these gifts. The post The Utterance Gifts appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Power Gifts – Jason Craft There are nine manifestation gifts listed in 1 Corinthians chapter 12.  These gifts can be better understood by breaking them down into three different categories.  There are three revelation gifts, three power gifts, and three utterance gifts.  These gifts still exist today and they will increase more and more as we get closer to the return of Jesus.  This teaching focuses on the three power gifts. Listen as we define each gift and  see biblical examples of each gift in operation. The post The Power Gifts appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Revelation Gifts – Jason Craft This teaching deals with the three revelation gifts that are listed in 1 Corinthians chapter 12. These gifts are all supernatural and they all reveal something.  Listen as we define the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, and the discerning of spirits and we see biblical examples of each gift in operation. The post The Revelation Gifts appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Are The Gifts For Today – Jason Craft There has been much debate in the Body of Christ as to whether the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit are for today or did miracles die out with the last Apostle. There are also many Believers who are simply confused about the gifts because they have had bad experiences or because they have had bad teaching concerning this subject. This message shows us from a biblical perspective that the gifts are for today and also addresses why so many people are apathetic concerning the miraculous gifts of the Spirit. The post Are The Gifts For Today appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Closing The Generational Gap – Jacob Larra This message reveals how the enemy’s strategy is not just to attack individual faith, but to disrupt discipleship between generations. When generations stop understanding one another and stop pouring into one another, faith is no longer passed down. It teaches that closing this generational gap begins with a clear understanding of identity in Christ, because identity is the foundation for a faithful life. From that foundation, believers are called to live out visible, everyday obedience so the next generation can see what genuine faith looks like under pressure. Finally, it emphasizes the importance of sharing personal testimony as the bridge that demonstrates God’s faithfulness and helps younger believers develop faith of their own. The post Closing The Generational Gap appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Love: The Foundation For The Spiritual Gifts – Justin Garcia Everyone wants to be a superhero nowadays. To have special powers would make us feel special, important, and needed to the world. The Corinthian church had a similar perspective when it came to the spiritual gifts found in 1 Corinthians 12. These gifts were considered badges of honor and superiority within the church. Paul combats this view in chapter 13 by grounding them in the truth that there is a more excellent way. Love should be the real reason why we earnestly desire the gifts. They’re given for the benefit of others; not for our own. Love gives the spiritual gifts true meaning! The post Love: The Foundation For The Spiritual Gifts appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · What Not To Do – Jason Craft Christianity is not a passive religion that advocates waiting on God to act. God has already acted! God has already provided everything we need for life and godliness. The Christian life is not about getting stuff from God but rather it is a process of renewing the mind and appropriating by faith what God has already provided by grace. We need active faith! We must also understand that active faith is not always about doing something but sometimes it is about not doing certain things. This message deals with four things that you shouldn’t do in 2026. Happy New Year! The post What Not To Do appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Purpose Conference Sunday – Bill Spencer Purpose is one of the deepest needs woven into every human heart. And because purpose is at the very center of the vision of Messiah’s House, we want to lean in together—discovering what it means for us personally and what it means for us as a church family. Join us as guest speaker, author, and founder of Narrow Gate Ministries Bill Spencer will unpack our God-given purpose through the lens of Scripture.

Messiah’s House · Moving With The God Of Miracles – Stephen Tow In our Miracles series, we have explored what miracles are, identified three types of miracles, and examined the purpose and necessity of each. Today’s message, “Moving with the God of Miracles” focuses on the fourth miracle—one that led a large group of disciples to a decisive moment in response to Jesus’ declaration, “I am the bread of life.” In this message, we will uncover the three key heart issues Jesus exposed that prevented many from continuing to follow Him. Join us as we discover how God’s miracles are never meant to end in amazement alone but are designed to move us forward in faithful obedience as true disciples of Christ. The post Moving With The God Of Miracles appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · When God Doesn’t Show Up, Miracle Series – Jason Craft Have you ever waited on God only to have Him not show up in time? Have you ever asked God for help and yet the “worst” possible thing still happens? In this teaching we see a great miracle that Jesus performed when He raised Lazarus from the dead. The question is why did Jesus let Lazarus die in the first place? Jesus could have healed Lazarus sooner but He chose to let him die. This message deals with the purpose behind all miracles and it addresses some temptations that we face when it seems that God didn’t show up in time. The post When God Doesn’t Show Up – Miracle Series appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Miracle of the Right Mind, Miracles Series – Jason Craft Jesus performed 37-40 individual miracles that were recorded in the gospels. John tells us that Jesus performed so many other miracles that even if they were written one by one, the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.  One of the primary types of miracles that Jesus performed was the casting out demons.  Many people today, even in the church, don’t believe in demons and yet Jesus said we would cast them out in His name.  This message deals with demonic strongholds and five signs of someone who is being influenced by demons. The post The Miracle of a Right Mind – Miracles Series appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Only God Can Do This, Miracle Series – Jason Craft Many Christians tend to believe miracles are instances when God intervenes in human events by doing something that violates the laws of nature.  However, definitions like this do not actually line up with the Bible’s definition of a miracle.  This is the first message in a four part mini series on the subject of miracles.  In this teaching we see how scripture defines a miracle and we also look at the four types of miracles that Jesus performed during His ministry time on Earth. The post Only God Can Do This – Miracles Series appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Gratitude In The Tough Times – Royce Gooch We know that the Bible tells us we should show gratitude to God, but what about those times when things are tough and we have trouble being grateful? What about the times that we even wonder If God is really good? Let’s examine what gratitude can do in our lives. The post Gratitude In The Tough Times appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Growing In Gratitude Being grateful and being thankful are not the same thing.  Being thankful is typically an automatic response to a specific event or gift.  Being grateful is a deeper, more sustained feeling of appreciation.  Gratitude is an attitude while thanksgiving is an action.  This message deals with how to grow in my gratitude toward God and have a mindset that is focused on the right things. The post Growing In Gratitude appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Understanding Forgiveness – Jason Craft If forgiveness was based on a feeling, we would never forgive people. The truth is that forgiveness is a choice and we can actually choose to crucify our feelings. Not only is forgiveness a choice, it is also a commandment given to us by Jesus. Obeying God’s commands is a way that we show our love for God. This teaching deals with understanding forgiveness from a biblical perspective and how to actually forgive people when they hurt you. The post Understanding Forgiveness appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Ministry of Reconciliation – Jason Craft The Kingdom of God is primarily relational, not simply functional.  God created us for fellowship with Himself and those around us.  Satan hates the Church that God is building and therefore he is constantly attacking us in the area of relationships.  When we should be fighting for one another, the devil tries to get us to fight with each other.  This message deals with four sources of relational discord and how to be reconciled when a relationship has been damaged. The post The Ministry Of Reconciliation appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · How Deep Is Your Love – Justin Garcia What do we do when the enemy’s voice makes sense, only to deceive?  When we endure suffering in our lives, the first thing the enemy convinces our flesh to do is question if God is indeed good. None of us want to experience disappointment, but these hardships can actually reveal some deep inner motives and expectations that we didn’t know existed within ourselves. Does your love for God have an ulterior motive? Are you serving God out of a desire to see Him meet your expectations? Suffering and disappointment will force you to answer this question, “How deep is your love?” The post How Deep Is Your Love appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Offense – Bradley Graham We invite you to enjoy this powerful message on offense from Bradley Graham, one of the elders at Messiah’s House. The post Offense appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Contagious Community – Jason Craft Community is so good that the devil attacks it. The enemy knows the power of Believers united together so he works overtime to isolate us. Isolation is where the enemy whispers lies to us. Community is where God speaks truth through one another. Community does not happen automatically by joining a church. Fellowship is something we must learn how to do. Community is something that has to be cultivated. Listen to this message as we look at six spiritual qualities of the first century church. The post Contagious Community appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Fighting For Unity – Jason Craft Our salvation, although it is free, brings a great responsibility to us as God’s people. Jesus is building his church and He is building us together. He requires of us to love one another and endeavor to have the unity of the Spirit among us. Unity is something that we have to strive for and it requires us to have a certain mindset. Unity is hard work but it is worth fighting for because our unity attracts the Holy Spirit. The post Fighting For Unity appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Building Strong Families In Difficult Times – Stephen Tow Today we are facing difficult times that challenge God’s original design and plan for families. From the pressure of today’s society to the problem of self-centeredness, families need to be strong in order to stand firm against the enemy. God made the institution of family, and he provides himself to help build it. The good news is, if we allow the lord to build our house our family will be strong and shine in today’s society. Join us today as we look at foundational and fundamental truths to help us build strong families in difficult times. The post Building Strong Families in Difficult Times appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · From Pain To Purpose – Jason Craft Many Believers get stuck in life because of something they did or because of something that was done to them. Life can be difficult at times and there are many people who live in constant brokenness and bondage. The good news of the gospel is that God can give beauty for ashes. God can take our pain and use it to bring us into our purpose. This message is a message of hope for all those who are hurting. The post From Pain To Purpose appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Baptism of Fire – Jason Craft This message is part of our “Reset” Series and deals with the doctrine of baptisms. According to scripture, there is one baptism but there are three in one. Many Believers have been baptized into the Body and have also been baptized into the water but many have never heard of the baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the biggest key to walking in the power of God. Is it possible that you need another baptism or a fresh filling of the Spirit? Listen to this teaching that breaks down the difference between receiving the Holy Spirit and having the Holy Spirit come upon you. The post The Baptism of Fire appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Healing Through God’s Word – Jason Craft According to Psalm 107:20, God sent forth His Word and healed the Israelite’s. The Word of God is like medicine for your soul and it can heal every area of your life when it is applied. If you need healing today then listen to this message and your faith will be increased. The post Healing Through God’s Word appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Presence of God, Reset Series – Jason Craft This is the first message in a four week mini series called RESET.  Reset is a way of starting again after a period of change. This series will take us back to the original vision and mission of Messiah’s House.  Change is here to stay but there are some things that aren’t supposed to change.  This teaching deals with the presence of God as it pertains to three main areas.  Enjoy! The post The Presence of God, Reset Series appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Missing Peace – Stephen Tow The book of Philippians primarily has a theme of joy. However, as we enter chapter 4 Paul gives us some powerful truths about the peace of God. In a time where anxiety is at an all-time high, God offers a peace that passes understanding and protects our hearts and minds. Join us today as we close out our summer series “By the Book” in Philippians chapter 4. Let’s find the missing peace God has made available and intended for us to live in. The post The Missing Peace appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Trash Or Treasure The Philippian church was dear to the heart of the Apostle Paul. In this chapter (chapter 3) we will look at Paul’s encouragement to the church to beware of those who would entice them back into a dependence on the Mosaic law, and to value knowing Christ above all. The post Trash Or Treasure appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Unity Through Humility – Jason Craft There was a conflict among the members in the church at Philippi. The Apostle Paul writes to the church and encourages them to be of one accord and of one mind. By using Jesus as the example, Paul lets us know that humility is the key to having corporate unity. The second chapter of Philippians also gives us a beautiful picture concerning the Incarnation of Christ. Listen and be encouraged in your faith. The post Unity Through Humility appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Joy In The Journey – Jason Craft Philippians 1 gives us a glance into the emotional and spiritual state of Paul while he was in prison. It emphasizes his enduring hope despite his physical circumstances and the joy he found in sharing the Gospel. This chapter serves as a powerful reminder that in life or death, the Gospel of Christ is not hindered but rather advances.

Messiah’s House · Let’s Get Down To Business – Jason Craft This message gives an outline to the fourth chapter of Colossians and deals with Paul’s final instructions to the church.  There have been countless books written telling the Church “what not to do” but in this message, Paul closes out his letter by telling us what every church should do. Paul gives us five directives concerning the business of the Church. The post Let’s Get Down To Business appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Decision Is Yours – Justin Garcia There are so many voices in the world today telling you how you should talk, what you should think, and how you should conduct your daily life. Colossians 3 gives very practical ways on how to overcome the pressures of the world and live in the freedom that comes only through salvation and Christ’s sufficiency. The reality is you can either live in freedom for the glory of your Lord or be enslaved to the expectations of men, but you can’t do both. The decision is yours. The post The Decision Is Yours appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Lordship Versus Legalism – Jason Craft Lordship is about relationship. Legalism is about rules. Lordship is about serving Jesus out of delight. Legalism is about serving Jesus out of duty. It is important that we never place confidence in a practice rather than in the Person of Jesus. This message is about how to spot a legalist and signs and symptoms of legalism. The post Lordship Versus Legalism appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Put Jesus First – Jason Craft According to scripture, Jesus is the firstborn over all creation and He is also the firstborn from the dead. This message comes from Colossians chapter one and deals with Jesus’ preeminence over both creation and redemption. This message also answers the questions to life’s most two important questions. Listen and be encouraged in your faith today. The post Put Jesus First appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · The Church That Prays – Jason Craft The Church That Prays This is the fifth and final message on the Book of James. James is writing this letter to an assembly of Jews who according to Chapter 1 were scattered out of Jerusalem by the persecutions of Acts 7 and 8. James is writing to Believers who were under tremendous stress and he is encouraging them to live out their faith in spite of trials and difficulties. James completes his epistle by giving directions concerning prayer and confession. He reminds us that God is at work in our prayers to bring about His will.

Messiah’s House · The Big Four In James 4 – Stephen Tow James chapter 4 is full of rich truths and insight. In this message, we will highlight 4 topics. Two that will reveal the enemy’s plan to pull us away from God and two that will position us in close and fulfilling fellowship with him. Join us as we continue our summer series “By the Book” in the book of James. We are sure to be challenged, equipped, and ultimately called into a place of knowing God as Lord, Shepherd, and Father. The post The Big Four In James 4 appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Watch Your Mouth – Jason Craft Words are very powerful and they have the ability to alter our lives. Our words can be used for good or for evil, we can speak life or we can speak death. Do our words cause division or healing, are they used to slander and gossip or full of grace, joy and optimism? Are our words used positively or negatively? Is your tongue a fire starter or a soothing balm? James chapter 3 is a challenge for us. Biblical training in the area of speech is needed for all of us because we talk a lot. This message deals with the power of the tongue, the sins of the tongue, and how to tame our tongues. The post Watch Your Mouth appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Favoritism and Faith – Jason Craft James chapter 2 deals with two major themes. The first theme is about favoritism and the second theme is about faith. In this teaching we see that the bible strongly condemns favoritism for several reasons and we also learn about three different kinds of faith. The Book of James is highly misunderstood because it is viewed through the wrong lens. The Book of James is written to Christian Jews and therefore we must keep in mind that this letter is a post salvation letter about how to live out our faith in Jesus Christ. The post Favoritism and Faith appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Trials, Temptations, & Trouble The book of James is important for us because it is a short letter full of practical insights into Christian living. The letter is filled with exhortations to Believers about the way they should live their every day lives and show evidence of their faith in Jesus. This teaching is based on the first chapter of the Book of James and deals with how we should live out our faith when we face trials, temptations, and troubles. The post Trials, Temptations, & Trouble appeared first on Messiah's House Church | Amarillo, Texas.

Messiah’s House · Jezebel Goes to Church The Jezebel Spirit is a territorial spirit that wants both homes and churches. Any church that operates in the prophetic will have to stay on guard against this spirit because Jezebel hates the prophetic.  This message defines the Jezebel spirit and deals with signs and symptoms of this spirit. NKJ SCRIPTURES:  1 Kings 19: 1-10 -1 Timothy 4: 1,2 -1 Kings 16:30 -1 Kings 21:25 -Revelation 2: 18-29 7 signs of Jezebel… 1.  It Causes Control, Manipulation, & Domination. 2.  It Causes Fear, Flight, and Discouragement. 3.  It Seduces and Provokes Sexual Immorality. 4.  Teaches False Doctrine. 5.  Loves Leadership Positions. 6.  Thrives Where Leadership is Weak. 7.  Not Repentant.
