    We must confess with our voices that we have what we are believing for. This is a public acknowledgement of our faith, and lets everyone know what we are believing and where we stand. We must make sure that what we say matches what we are believing for.

    Confessions: public validations of your faith or public rejections of your faith *A word spoken is as an arrow let fly! *Prov 25:11 “Like apples of gold in settings of silver Is a word spoken in right circumstances” I. Words are important. Prov 18:21 “Death and Life are in the power of the ...read more

    There is One that has never made a mistake, One that we can totally put our trust in and believe every thing He says whether we understand it or not. And that of coarse is our Great God.

    THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD Deut. 7:9 2-14-09 Today I want to talk for a little while on the “faithfulness of God”. As we all know there are people in this world that are not faithful hardly to do with any thing, It seems that it’ is really hard for us to put confidence ...read more

    The main point of this sermon is that through Hannah's story, we learn about the transformative power of prayer and God's ability to turn our mourning into dancing, reminding us to trust in His goodness and faithfulness in every circumstance.

    Good morning, family! Today, we will be diving into the life of Hannah, a woman who experienced God's mercy, the power of prayer, and the blessing of restoration in her life. But before we go any further, let's take a moment to welcome the Lord's presence with us today. Please join me in prayer. ...read more

    What is it to have mercy? What is it to have guilt? No doubt we have at some point felt that we are no longer to be forgiven for some sin or transgression. But then there is something called faith.

    In verses 12-13: Is it not wonderful to know that Christ has reached down and forgiven us from our sins, and then to call us into a ministry, no matter what that ministry is? Look at Paul and what he was before he came to know Christ as his Savior. He denounced the teachings of Christ, and he ...read more

    Every genuine believe is a steward of the christian faith. When men of dubious character rise to teach false doctrines, you must speak the truth and defend the faith.

    TEXT: Jude 1:3 - 4 (NLT) "Dear friends, I had been eagerly planning to write to you about the salvation we all share. But now I find that I must write about something else, urging you to defend the faith that God has entrusted once for all time to his holy people. I say this because some ...read more

    Habakuk had developed an attitude based on circumstances of feelings and emotions. If what you’re praying for is not happening, can you still believe and have faith in God for his provisions?

    When everything is against you, that’s when you hold on to God’s word. Everything around you can give way, it doesn’t matter, hold on to God. Public opinion can be against you, it matters not. Doctors say you’re going to die, you can’t make it, family is saying drop ...read more

     | 825 views

    In the opening verses of Jude, we’re reminded that following Christ means embracing a new identity—one marked by complete submission and ownership by Jesus. This message calls the Church to stay alert and defend the faith from subtle internal threats that distort grace and divide the body.

    It’s the end of June of 2023. Crazy, isn’t it? Well I guess not really - that’s how time works. But, May 1st of this year marked half a decade that I’ve been here at New Hope, and in fact, this month, although it’s almost over, marks exactly 2 full years since I’ve started preaching here. Kind of a ...read more
