    Dealing With Delay

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Aug 4, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,357 views

    We have our Christian beliefs, yes-but that isn’t the same as believing God. Believing God is a personal response that grows out of our Christian faith and is expressed by our increasing trust in Him while waiting on Him and His promises.

    God cares about our physical needs BUT our spirituality is a priority to God!

    We are here to worship God who is One but exists in 3 Persons. Although God is all around us and is involved in our lives, God knows we will be blinded with just the physical and so God gave us His Words. How does one worship someone?? If we are to worship God properly, we need to be at awe with ...read more

    We cannot please everyone but we need only to please God, our Creator. In this message, we will learn three desires that Moses had that win the approval of God. Our goal is that we will also gain God's approval for everything we do.

    If we do not desire God's will for the life of the church, then we will see the Body of Christ fall far short of God's will.

    This message is a call to pursue God's presence during a worship service. New Testament Christianity calls for our participation. We must be careful our "worship" service doesn't become a performance with an audience. We want everyone engaging in worship.
