Last Sunday we kicked off our 4 part Breakthrough teaching series with BREAKTHROUGH PRAISE. We talked about Paul & Silas being wrongfully imprisoned for casting a demon out of a little girl… 25 But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.  26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the p...

Have you ever noticed that when you go to step out and do something great for God, there is always resistance and opposition? The enemy has no idea who you are until you start to open your mouth…And when you make a stand to be used by God, the enemy brings the attack. Paul shows us this is not uncommon. ACTS 16: 19-34 16 Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed wi...

We have had 3 big prophetic words spoken over us as a church this year and these prophetic words all line up with each other. (You can listen to these on this week's podcast). These prophetic words also line up with what the Spirit of God has been saying to Ps James and Ps Paula. This is exciting because we believe that we’re on the cusp of a breakthrough…a God shift. There is a breakthrough anoin...

  Psalm 100:1-5 “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all you lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before His presence with singing.

Jesus resurrection surprised everyone Revelation 21:1 What seems like the end is just the beginning of something new - 2nd chance  Luke 24:1-8 Jesus resurrection was traumatic.  Trauma is any experience that doesn’t fit in with our usual way of thinking about how the world works.

We find it so easy to naturally be selfish and yet Jesus spends so much of his time teaching us that to be like Him is to put others first.   · He tells us that He did not come to be served but to serve others and to give His life as a ransom for many. · He tells us repeatedly that the first will be last and last will be first.  · He tells us not just to invite those to dinner who can pa...

 

God is relational and he created humanity because He wanted to be in relationship with us. We were created to be in relationship, both with God and with each other. Because of this, there is nothing more fulfilling than engaging the presence of God. There are two aspects of God’s presence: · His omnipresence – which means that God is around us at all times · His manifest presence – which is what A...

We take Jesus seriously – so what does that mean? It is important to think about Jesus as a human being in order to help us work out how Jesus wants us to live. What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? Jesus Christ was a first-century rabbi who taught people how to live on earth. He was entrusted with speaking in the synagogue and at the temple. Let’s look at the calling of the first 4 discipl...

Do you see yourself as a person of influence? As a leader? Most Christians don’t. Instead they see themselves as nice people, loving people, and unfortunately, keep to myself people. There is nothing wrong with being nice or loving, however, Jesus instructs us to be SEEN in John 13:15: By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. Our love is to be seen as a te...

 

The book of Genesis records how God came to a man named Abram and challenged him to SEE.

All the land that you SEE I will give to you and your offspring forever. I want you to notice something here; God tells Abram to take a look around. And then God...

If someone were to look at us, what are we going to improve, or def...
