    From the chaos before Creation through the chaos of today’s world, GOD is in control

    In the beginning the world was in chaos. There was no form, no function, no order, "Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths." GOD was not pleased with what He saw and created the heavens, the earth, and all living things. "GOD said, “Let there be ...read more

    Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them into something good in our lives.

    Matthew 4 God is in Control (4:1) 1. Jesus “was led up by the Spirit…” - God is in control here. - This was all apart of God’s plan. - God doesn’t transform trials into good. - Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them ...read more

    self-control - is at the heart of our faithful walk before God and people. We lose it in small ways which leads to bigger problems

    Respectable Sins – Self-Control How often have you had someone say to you ‘He who is without sin cast the first stone?’ Or maybe you have someone say to you ‘Judge not lest you be judged?’ I reckon they must two verses which are most often taken out of their context and misapplied. The second ...read more

    Sometimes it seems like we’re on a run away rollercoaster, in times like these we need to be reminded that (God is still in Control).

    I want to start this message by prophesying to somebody: God is in control, it doesn’t matter what is happening in the economy, and it doesn’t matter what is happening on a political level, or whose in the white house. It doesn’t matter what they do to social security, healthcare, or anything ...read more

    We as humans have a hard time giving up control of anything, but in order to find the abundant life Jesus offers, we must cede authority of our lives to Him, even if that means going into choppy waters.

    We began last time by looking at Jesus as He came down from giving the Sermon on the Mount. He begins to demonstrate that it isn’t all talk—that He really is the coming King and controls His creation, both the visible and invisible. We see Him first approached by two people who really have no ...read more

    FCF: God is in control. If things seem out of control, maybe it is because somebody else thinks they’re able to take God’s place.

    We’re going to begin looking at Daniel 2 for the next three weeks, because it does a wonderful job of teaching us something so fundamental: How to talk to God. As Christians, each and every one of us is blessed with direct line to God himself. It’s almost magical to think about that fact. But I ...read more

    Learning to let go of situations in life you can’t handle and how to let God take control!

    Why me, God…why am I going through this? Have you ever thought, whispered, or screamed that question? Have you ever thought that God was against you personally?
