Scripture: 1 Peter 5:7, Luke 6:38-39, Jude 1:22
Denomination: Assembly Of God
Peter is so eager to establish our identity (because it is the basis for so much of what he says in the book), he blurts it out before he even gets to the greeting.
1 Peter 1:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the elect, strangers [in the world], scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia, 2 [chosen] according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and ...read more
Scripture: 1 Peter 1:1-2
Probably the most worn-out prayer there is, is that one-word reaction we always have when we suffer, “Why? Why is this happening?” Peter gives us the answer.
1 Peter 1:6 In which you rejoice, a little while, if necessary, you may be grieved in multifaceted trials, 7 in order that the proof of your faith (more precious than gold, the perishing through fire, but proved), it may be found toward praise and glory and honor in the revelation of Jesus Christ, ...read more
Scripture: 1 Peter 1:7-9
Last week I threw out 3 challenges. I accepted one of those challenges for you. Today is the 1st of 3 part series titled: Fruit of the Spirit
Last week we discussed being created in God’s image. His character. I went home and that message began to percolate inside me. That night, not long before we went to bed, I told Lisa “I’ve got nothing for next week”. The next morning, my prayer was about Walking by the Fruit of the Spirit. About 5 ...read more
Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23
There are at least four core commitments for Christian living: (1) abide in the Word, (2) pray your heart out, (3) be killing sin, and (4) give your life away.
Our lives tell a story—a story about who we are and what we value, where we’ve come from and where we’re going, what we want and what we’ll do to get it. And what most of us do is, we make “the story” of our lives about us. But God makes “the story” of our lives about Christ. Someone has said, ...read more
Scripture: Luke 9:18-27
Denomination: Presbyterian/Reformed
God, through Haggai, challenges the people to look honestly at their lives-- their priorities, and how well that's worked out for them. God wants his house built.
Today, we start a new three week series on the book of Haggai. I should really start, by explaining something about the background of Haggai. Give you something to set it in the context of Israel's history. But I just don't want to. I'll just say this: Haggai prophesied to ...read more
Scripture: Haggai 1:1-14
When we sin God is displeased and our relationship with Him is disrupted. That continues until we confess in sorrow and repentance and He forgives and brings us back out into the light.
Matthew 6:5-15 And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men.

Scripture: Matthew 6:12
Jesus did not call us to stay safe within four walls; He called us to go out, to be His witnesses, and to bring the light of the Gospel to every corner of the earth.
For many, church has become a comfortable place—a sanctuary where we find peace, encouragement, and fellowship. But Jesus never intended the church to be a final destination. Instead, He envisioned it as a dynamic launching pad, a place that equips, empowers, and sends believers into the world to ...read more

King Solomon said ‘‘Where there is no vision the people perish.’’ One of the things that this verse makes very clear is that a vision is vital to carrying out God’s will and Purpose for our lives
‘‘Where there is no vision the people perish.’’ One of the things that this verse makes very clear is that a vision is vital to carrying out God’s will and Purpose for our lives.

Denomination: Evangelical/Non-Denominational
While events in history may appear to be shaped by the whim and fancy of men, the truth is that our all-merciful God is “silently, patiently working out the counsels of His own will.”
May 20, 2023 Our next story from the book of Daniel occurs in the 2nd year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign. In the night Nebuchadnezzar had a dream – a dream so vivid that he couldn’t go back to sleep. He was so troubled by this dream that he called his magicians, enchanters, sorcerers and ...read more

Women do not have fight to play a major role in war. The gentle schemes of women are often able to do what bombs and bullets cannot do. Mary Murray is a great example from the Revolutionary War. George Washington and two of his generals had escaped from the British in New York, but General Putnam ...read more
Scripture: Joshua 2:1-21
Peter didn’t even give an invitation. There does not appear to be an invitation given anywhere in the early church. People were so moved by the Holy Spirit that they cried out for conversion.
A pastor was telling his visiting grandchildren a fascinating bedtime story. They listened to him breathlessly, but when he was finished one of them took a deep breath and said, “Grandpa, was that a true story, or were you just preaching?” This attitude could be learned by a child in ...read more

The love of God. It is given in the person of Jesus Christ. 1 John, tells us the purpose of his coming. What a lavish love this is that has been poured out upon us.
Agape-we are lavished with love. An advent sermon. There are some truly magnificent things that can happen in a person’s life. I think of life itself, the meeting of those two cells that contain all the coded DNA required to form a fully-fledged human being, that turned out to be you, with your on ...read more

Denomination: Salvation Army
Being filled with the Spirit is a fundamental part of our Christian faith, and we are called to live out of the abundance of the Spirit's power in us, not just to the point of being filled, but to the point of overflow.
Good morning, church family! Today we're going to dive deep into Colossians 2:9-10 where Paul talks about the richness and fullness of the Spirit. It's a message that's not just about being filled, but being filled to the point of overflow. A.W. Tozer once said, "The Spirit-filled life is not a ...read more
