    Halloween has been a popular event in America. It is a time that many see as just a fun time to dress up, get candy and see people. Historically, Halloween has not always been so innocent and some of the practices have been derived from pagan worship.

    God is making his final call to his people, "Repent and prepare to meet your God". Too many of God's people live in a false sense of security, believing in lying words. Let's make our salvation sure and fully commit to serving the Lord!

    Like Samuel, we are often frustrated in our intentions. But turning to prayer, as he did, will help us remove the blame from ourselves, will help us understand the motives of others, and will help us accept reality and move on toward something better.

    In this message, I want us to consider specifically the words “Thanks be to God.” Let’s see what Paul said we were to be thankful for. 1- Thanks be to God for victory over sin 2- Thanks be to God for victory over death 3- Thanks be to God for victory

    Romans 1:21 “For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.” INTRO.- Many people don’t give thanks to God. They may be thankful, but not to God, which is a big ...read more
