    As Christians, we need to take a stand for God. It’s not always easy. During GOOD TIMES – When things are going right - We get complacent. During BAD TIMES – When everything seems to be going wrong – We get discouraged … blame God … look to ourselves for

    When The Mantle Must Rest PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 147 views

    The sermon encourages embracing God’s timing, resting from roles when needed, prioritizing presence and relationships, and trusting prayer to shape our lives and seasons.

    There’s a rhythm stitched into the world by the hand of God. The tide rolls in and slips out. Winter gives way to spring. Babies cry, grandparents smile, and somewhere in between we learn how to hold on and how to let go. Seasons change. And if we’re honest, our souls feel it—the gentle tug that ...read more

     | 8,528 views

    We often pride ourselves in our work ethic, but we are addicted to work! This sermon takes a look at our need to find rest in the midst of a chaotic world and a myriad of responsibilities; using Jesus' practice of finding rest as our example.

    IMMEDIACY IN MARK When we read the Gospel of Mark, we read a story moving at breakneck speed. Mark is the shortest gospel, and in it we don’t find a genealogy, or narratives from his childhood, or even much of a prelude before Jesus is baptized. And once he is baptized, it seems like he is ...read more

    All we have to do is believe and rest on His word and He said He would take care of everything for us. Sounds easy, it is, just that easy, if you will let it be!!!

    Take God’s Word For It Matthew 4:4 NKJ 4…He [Jesus] answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” Matt 4:4 MSG 4Jesus answered by quoting Deuteronomy: "It takes more than bread to stay alive.

    Hebrews 3:7-4:11 encourages us to enter God’s rest. In a time when the fulfillment and joy that brings rest is hard to find, what a word of hope!

    It’s time to take a test to see if you’re putting in to practice and progressing in your faith

    2 Corinthians 13:5 (NLT) 5Examine yourselves to see if your faith is really genuine. Test yourselves. If you cannot tell that Jesus Christ is among you, it means you have failed the test.

    A Time To Wait, A Time Not To Wait Series

    The believers were instructed to wait in Jerusalem. They were not ready, but why not? They were absolutely convinced of the resurrection, but still not ready to launch out and take the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Wait for the power of the Holy Spirit.

    We gain a lot by studying the book of Acts. We learn about how the church grew in its infancy stage. Now over twenty percent of the world’s population claim to be true disciples of Jesus. But we are starting here with one hundred and twenty loyal believers huddled together in one room. It helps us ...read more

    Revival begins and endures when we seek, rely, and rest in God—trusting His strength in prosperity, adversity, and every ordinary day.

    Part 1 – The Background and the Blessing There are times when the Spirit of God moves in obvious ways — when people are desperate, when the bottom has dropped out, when tragedy drives hearts to prayer. But there are also quieter seasons, when everything seems fine, when the bills are paid, the ...read more
