     | 11,330 views

    We all want comfort. And God offers it to us as he did to the exiled Israelites. We can take comfort that our sin has been paid in full, that God's word outlasts our problems, and that God is coming again. Forgiven, forever, for sure!

    Isaiah 40:1-11 Lasting Comfort Handel’s “Messiah” begins the first phrase of today’s passage: “‘Comfort ye, comfort ye my people,’ saith your God.” The theme of “comfort” sounds good, doesn’t it? Especially when you just can’t quite get comfortable. Bones ache, thoughts ruminate, neighbors ...read more

    What could possibly be so terrible that when God see's it he is horrified by the sight? It is the sight of a people who have no intercessor.

    The illustration is a fictional story about "knowing the day of our death". Jesus knew why He was going to Jerusalem. The disciples believe the "kingdom" of the Son of Man, Daniel 7 is about to be fulfilled. Jesus turns Daniel upside down. Service!

    How can we live in such as way as Christ followers that God will be free to show up and show off in our lives and draw unbelievers to Christ?

    I want to talk with you about God’s visitation program. Now, when we think of a visitation program in church, we think of visiting someone to tell them about Jesus. But today, I want us to think about God visiting us to show Jesus to others. (READ TEXT) In verse 12, Peter mentions “the day God ...read more

    A Spirit-filled church receives the power of the Holy Spirit to witness for Christ, live in unity, and finish God’s final mission.

    There is a picture of the church in the book of Acts that stands as both our history and our calling. It is a picture of a community awakened, empowered, and united by the Holy Spirit for the fulfillment of God’s final purpose in the world. Acts does not begin with a church capable of such a ...read more
