    Living Life To The Fullest
    If there is going to be a formula for living life to the fullest, it should come from God. God designed life and He is the one who gives life! So I think it would be good for us to take a look at what He says about how to live life to its fullest.
    1 Peter 3:10-12 For “He who would love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit. 11 Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

    The Human Aspect – Part 2
    God made us all different. These personality differences can become sources of conflict in a family and in His Kingdom. But it was God’s plan to design each of us differently, so there must be a positive side to the Human Aspect as well. There is no right or wrong personality - God made you to be you.
    Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, so that we should walk in them.”

    The Human Aspect – Part 1
    Much like the corporate world, the workings in God’s Kingdom are influenced or affected by … The Human Aspect. Our personality and our traits will affect the outcome of the efficiency of His Work. Our attitudes and our focus will affect the outcome of the efficiency of His Work.
    1 Corinthians 2:1-2 Brothers, when I came to you, I did not come with superiority of speech or wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

    Satan Is Attacking Me …

    ... And I am mad at God!

     
    We often attribute bad things to satan or God's punishment. The result is - we look away from God for comfort. But what is the real reason bad things happen? And who do we blame?
     
    Luke 13:1-5 There were present at that time some who told Him of the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse offenders than all men living in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

    Seek My Face – An Echo
    God desires for us to seek Him in all we do and then echo back to Him and to the world around us what He is telling us.
     
    Psalms 27:6-8 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies encircling me; therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord. 7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Be gracious to me and answer me. 8 When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”

    Praise Him With Singing
    The love of music and song was put in us at creation. God loves singing. He loves His people to sing praises to Him!
    Psalms 149:1-3 Praise the Lord! Sing unto the Lord a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the godly ones. 2 Let Israel rejoice in its Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. 3 Let them praise His name with dancing; let them sing praises unto Him with the tambourine and harp.

    So, here’s what it all boils down to, we exist to glorify God by fulfilling our mission of reaching the world and leading them to Christ and then helping those believers to be followers of Christ.

    Can I Have a Do Over?
    Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just yell “do-over” and get a chance to do it again? Wouldn’t it be nice if everything that happened in your life was written on a chalkboard and you could just walk up and erase the board and do it over? Is God a God of 2nd chances?
    Hebrews 7:26-27 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, for He is holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners, and is higher than the heavens. 27 Unlike those high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices - first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for He did this once for all when He offered up Himself.

    What Must I Do To Gain Eternal Life?
    One of the most intriguing and written about topics is … the topic of “How to gain eternal life”. Every religion, every culture, every race and every generation has had some fascination about the afterlife, living forever or gaining eternal life. But what does God say?

    A Wildman Set Free
    Though satan roared against us, though the legions of hell sought to destroy us, though our hearts were vile and destructive, if you are a Believer, at one point in our life, Christ came to us and by the power of His omnipotent grace He saved us.
    Mark 5:1-4 They went to the other side of the sea to the region of the Gadarenes. 2 When He had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit came out of the tombs and met Him. 3 He lived among the tombs. And no one could constrain him, not even with chains, 4 because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. But he had pulled the chains apart and broken the shackles to pieces. And no one could subdue him.

    Be Still and Know
    This Psalm teaches us that whenever disaster strikes and it seems that all hope is lost, God can handle things which seem like total disaster to us. When we allow Him to handle them, He will handle them in His will, His own time and His own way.
    Psalms 46:1-3 God is our refuge and strength, a well-proven help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

    Jul 19, 2020
    Balanced View of Prayer
    We have many biblical models for prayer in the Bible. How do we do all of those? Are we supposed to do all of them? If you pray one way and it works for you, is that the way I should pray?
    1 Kings 8:28-29 … give consideration to the prayer of Your servant and to his supplication, O Lord my God; listen to the cry and to the prayer which Your servant prays before You today, that Your eyes may be upon this house night and day, even toward the place of which You have said, ‘My name shall be there,’ that You may listen to the prayer which Your servant shall make toward this place.

    The Strength In Unity
    Abraham Lincoln quoted scripture from the Bible and then he went on to say something very profound - “I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other.”
    Mark 3:24-25 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

    The Tower Of Babel
    When man continues to try to do 'life' without God ... we always see consequences.
    Genesis 11:6 The Lord said, “The people are one and they have one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do; now nothing that they propose to do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

    The Body
    I think we hear ‘we are the body of Christ’ so much, but do we really know what that means? What does it look like? How does that play out in our real, practical life?
    Romans 12:4-6 For just as we have many parts in one body, and not all parts have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and all are parts of one another. We have diverse gifts according to the grace that is given to us: if prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;

    Fall In TO Worship
    We think about the phrase "Fall in" and we think about a soldier falling into line or maybe the idea of falling into the arms of God. But have you ever thought about the idea of falling into Worship? This sermon challenges us to Fall In ... TO Worship!
    Psalms 86:9-10 All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, and shall glorify Your name. 10  For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You are God alone.

    What can we learn from the story of Sodom & Gomorrah? A lot!! But what is the main lesson to learn? Listen and tell us what you think!
     
    Genesis 18:16-22 Then the men rose up and looked toward Sodom, and Abraham went with them to see them on their way. Then the Lord said, “Should I hide from Abraham what I am doing, since Abraham will surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed in him? I chose him, and he will instruct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing righteousness and justice, so that the Lord may bring to Abraham what He promised him.” ** Then the Lord said, “Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grave, I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has come to Me. If not, I will know.” The men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the Lord.

    Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. A man was there named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. He tried to see who Jesus was, but was not able from the crowd, because he was little in stature. So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was to pass that way. When Jesus came to the vicinity, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must remain at your house.” So he hurried and came down, and received Him joyfully. When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” Luke 19:1-10

    His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” - John 2:5
    Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Him with her sons. And kneeling before Him, she asked for a certain thing.

    Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already attained or have already been perfected, but I follow after it so that I may lay hold of that for which I was seized by Christ Jesus.
