    If we are going to have the power of the Holy Spirit in operation in our lives, we must first get "plugged in", "turned on" and "fired up" with Jesus.

    Plug into the Power By Pastor Jim May (This sermon references a video that was purchased from Sermonspice.com that depicts a young man using a chainsaw without starting it.)

    James reminds us that our words can be the most powerful force known to man. Words can set the course of individuals and nations. Consider what God has to say to us about the way we speak.

    “For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. Indeed, we put bits in horses’ mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, ...read more

    The Word of God is powerful, and is a key element of change in our life if we will allow it to be.

    If there is one thing we desperately need in the Church today, it is for our people to be continuously transformed by God. We need to get into His Word until His Word gets into us! We need to see change in a lot of areas in this world. All of us recognize that need. But even areas in people and ...read more

     | 5,071 views

    Where is the power? The power is found in Christ alone! It sounds so simple, then why do we have such a problem following it.

    Where Is The Power? No matter how hard I try, I just can’t stop using profanity, lying, cheating, stealing, turning my back on God! What I need to know is: where’s the power. Didn’t God say that He would never leave nor forsake me, then why do I find myself in these situations time after time. ...read more

    There is power in the word...or so where told...but what exactly is this power and how do we tap into it? (plenty of room to customize for your people!)

    I read a story about a pastor who was visiting one of his members. The lady of the house was trying to impress him about how committed to God she was by pointing out the large Bible on the bookshelf and talking in a very reverential way of it as "the Word of God". Her young son interrupted the ...read more

     | 7,420 views

    There is only one power at work in the last week of Jesus’ life - not Pilate’s, not the religious leaders’ - but the power of His love for the world. This power kept Him silent and drove Him to the cross.

    John 15:9-13 9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. ...read more

    Jesus comes to us as the "I Am" in the situation we are in. His power is not confined to or limited by circumstances. We are to trust that He always acts on time, in His own way, to accomplish a greater purpose.

    Martha’s brother Lazarus was dead. • Jesus said to Martha: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believers in me will never die.” (John 11:25) Martha sees God’s answer as something that can happen only in the future. • Her ...read more
