Life will hit you with things. Things to do, things to battle, things that cause you stress, things that bring you down. Jesus said there was one thing that was needed. If we will do that ONE THING, everything else will work out. Today we talk about the one needed thing. 

What do you do when everything goes wrong? David faced such challenges and if we do what he did, we can experience victory, just as David did!

Mark chapter 5 tells us the story of a man who had lost everything and was full of demons. But then, he met Jesus! He was changed forever! Today hear the inspiring story of a man changed by Jesus! 

How do you measure love? Sometimes we see love as sending flowers, a compliment, being there for someone and so on. Those are all great things but the ultimate measurement of love is when we give. The bible says, "God so loved the world that he GAVE. Today, we attempt to measure God's incredible, boundless love! 

What do you do when it's black as midnight and you can't find an answer? Paul and Silas and others in the bible chose to pray and to worship when things went wrong. Today we look at worship as a spiritual weapon! 

Make no mistake about it, life is going to punch you in the face. As Rocky Balboa said, "It's not about how hard you can hit but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." We must determine now, once and for all in our hearts, "Don't ever quit!" 

The meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus is one of the most important things you'll ever read! It is paramount to the Christian faith. Today we take a look at that incredible meeting! 

Doubt and unbelief tie God's hands in your life but stepping out in faith does the opposite! Today we talk about untying God's hands in your life! 

We know that nothing is impossible with God but when you throw people in the mix, well, things change. Jesus went to his own home town and the bible says, "He could do no mighty works there because of their unbelief." Because of unbelief, the hands of God were tied. Today, we learn about tying the hands of God in our lives. 

The bible has so much to say about your thoughts. We've all heard people say, I just can't stop thinking bad, negative thoughts. According to the bible that is not true. With the help of the bible, we can change the way we think and renew our minds.

This is our theme at church for 2021! We are believing the Lord that this coming year will be our year of revival! But this isn't just for us, we want all Christian's and all churches to experience revival in 2021! 

Forgiveness. It's not easy to talk about. But, forgiveness brings freedom. Forgiveness lifts a heavy weight from our spirits. 

Tradition says a lot of things about who Jesus is. Different denominations say a lot of things about who Jesus is. BUT what does the bible say about who Jesus is? Today we look at Isaiah 9:6 to see! 

Jesus said you must be born of the water and of the Spirit. In another chapter he said, "If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink! Peter said, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you SHALL receive the GIFT of the Holy Spirit. The Lord has an unlimited supply of the Spirit. All you have to do is be hungry for Him! 

God has a gift for you! It's the gift of the Holy Spirit! The Old Testament prophesied of this beautiful work of God's love in our lives!!!! 

Mark chapter five tells the incredible story of this woman and her healing! Always remember, God's delay isn't always God's denial. She struggled for 12 years but then "heard about Jesus." It's a beautiful and timeless story. 

Do your circumstances dictate your faith? Are you moved by what you see or are you moved by the promises of God? No matter what giant or mountain is in front of you, know this, that giant is NOT bigger than the God inside you! Greater is HE that is in you!!!! 

Are you speaking words of life or death? What you say matters! Jesus said we would give an account for every idle word we speak. What we say can be used to destroy or edify, the choice is up to us! Change your words, change your life! 

Almost all battles we face start with our thought life. But there is good news! The Word of God has plenty to say about how to control our thought life! Today we talk about it on the Inspire Preaching Podcast. 

Do you ever wake up and think, "This is just an ordinary day?" We need to think in a different way! Every day can be a day of divine opportunities with the Lord using us to change the world around us! Every day can be an extraordinary day!
