Even the best that we have can't compare to Jesus. To know Christ is our ultimate goal. To know Christ is to love people.

Look out for the interests of others. Be done with grumbling, arguing, selfish ambition, vain conceit. Work out you salvation. This can ONLY be done by the Holy Spirit working in you and you letting yourself be "poured out" like the apostle Paul was, like Jesus was...obedient EVEN unto death in EVERYTHING. But the Holy Spirit was poured out on ALL flesh making it possible to have the mind of Chris...

Explore Philippians chapter 1 as we look at how Paul's faith (even when he was in jail) led others to know Christ and strengthened the faith of other believers. Whatever has happened Whatever is happening Whatever will happen when we put it in the hands of God.... we find peace and great joy. We can trust God!

When you feel alone know: 1. Someone has been here before- your situation is not unique 2. God has limitless power, you have hope as an anchor 3. You can honor God in your difficult situation.

Joshua sat in proximity to God even after everyone else left David served in obscurity even when he knew his great calling Jesus washed the feet of Judas while knowing he would betray him.

Are you ready to quit? Are you mad at your situation? Do you wish it were all just different? Your Valley of Trouble has a door of Hope! Jesus shows us our blueprint in saying "not my will but yours be done"

Joshua was near Jericho. Jesus was near Jerusalem.

Looking at the life of John the Baptist and his relationship to Herod and Herodious we can see ourselves as we choose when we listen or don't listen to what God is saying. Herod put his "conscience" in prison so he only had to listen to it when it was convenient and then finally he put his "conscience" to death. He thought that would free himself but it did the opposite.

We can be in a place of craving what we do not have OR in a place of consecration of the things that do not honor God. Craving brings us to the grave, Consecration brings us to God. The podcast explores Numbers 11:23 and Luke 9:46.

When we confess our sins God forgives us because of Jesus sacrifice. Take a look at Leviticus 26:37 and John 14 as we explore the gift God has given us!

When something is ruined in your life, how do you fix it? There is a clear blueprint in the life of Nehemiah when he looks to rebuild the temple. 1.He first recognizes the despair in the situation. 2.He Prays 3.He repents of his sins and the sins of his nation 4.He depends on God to lead him forward to renewing, restoring, rebuilding and breathing life into a dead situation.

The power of sin is broken in our lives by Jesus! We are forgiven and set free! No shadow of shame should be on the face of a follower of Jesus. He is faithful to forgive our sins and to cleanse us of ALL unrighteousness.

Through dry seasons we must stay focused on God. We can trust Him.

The principle of rest is woven through the Bible from creation to the Law to Jesus to Heaven. Life is busy, time is precious and rest for our souls in Jesus is the key to peace.

Does God really know what He is doing? Yes! God is active in our everyday lives.

God loves you. From creation until now he has been pursuing people to find rest in Him. He has given this great hope, this great message of salvation to us to share freely.
