    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 31, 2018
     | 5,925 views

    Life is unpredictable yet for the most part many of us live our lives in a very predictable fashion. What can we do? The simple answer is change but we don't like that word; even if it's for the better. But change shouldn't be shunned; it can be embraced.

    ESCAPING THE ROUTINE RUT As we head into the new year we might not be too excited. One reason is we anticipate that 2019 will not be too much different than 2018. Life is unpredictable yet for the most part many of us live our lives in a very predictable fashion. We perform the same routines ...read more

    This sermon looks at seven promises, resolutions of God that God's people can take hold of as their own with full assurance that God will keep every one of them.

    God’s Resolutions Before we look at the resolutions that God has made concerning all of us, I began by thinking about our New Year’s resolutions, and then I thought about what it meant and where it all came from. It seems that the word, “resolution” had its origin back in the late 14th century. ...read more

    We can need a fresh start for many reasons- a bad relationship, financial debt, addiction, etc. So, we make a fresh start. We move away, we change jobs, we get involved with new people, etc. A fresh start feels good and can make all the difference in the world.

    Israel had seen the 10 plagues, the Red Sea open, the miracles in the wilderness, and God conquer the promised land. But 24 years later their devotion cooled off. Joshua brought them to a decision to recommit their lives. We need to make a new dedication too!

    It’s a different kind of blank check the Lord will be giving us.... “I will give you what you asked, even those you did not ask for— No other person in all the world will be compared to you for the rest of your life! I will give you a long life.”

    “Want A Blank Check? ...Check It Out!” 1Kings 3:3-15 3- Solomon loved the Lord and followed all the decrees of his father, David, except that Solomon, too, offered sacrifices and burned incense at the local places of worship. 4- The most important of these places of worship was at Gibeon, so the ...read more

    You cannot enter new dimensions with old thinking. You cannot handle new glory with outdated obedience. God is inviting His people to let go of comfort, tradition without life, and spiritual complacency.

    NEW OIL FOR A NEW SEASON INTRODUCTION God is a God of seasons, progress, and divine movement. He does not keep His people static, and He does not repeat Himself mechanically. When God shifts seasons, He releases fresh oil to match new assignments. Every season in God requires a corresponding ...read more
