Harvest City Church Leicester

Faith is activated by people who have prepared their hearts to receive all God has set aside for them.

“Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the...

What does our future look like? We may not know, but we serve God who knows!

How do we love God with our all in difficult times?

The history of God’s initial promise realised so fully at Jesus’ first coming increases confidence that the rest of God’s promises will be fulfilled at Jesus’ second coming and after that, into eternity.

“On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, “Te...

““Remember to observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of rest dedicated to the Lord your God. On that day no one in your household may do any work. This includes you, your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, your livestock, and any foreigners living among you. For in six days the Lord made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and everything in th...

When we receive encouragement early in life, it will greatly benefit us for the rest of our lives. We have to learn to be like Barnabas and be an encourager.

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood...

Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest."

‘My people have forgotten how to do right’ says the Lord. ‘Their fortresses are filled with wealth taken by theft and violence’.

Faith is not just about the church, but about how we behave in the work place. Regardless of like for your boss or the company. Our Christian behaviour should express itself in our places of work, which includes our schools and universities. We should bear witness by our work ethic. We 'work' unto the Lord not man. The Bible is a book for life not just something we read and indeed practise on Sund...

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.

Parental authority is vital and helps bring stability to our society. God established mankind within the structure of family life. Children are to submit to the authority of their parents in Christ. This begins in the home and the example is fleshed out by the example of the parents.

I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. You have already been pruned and purified by the message I have given you. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitf...

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. A...

Marriage is for a life long companionship. To keep this we need to understand the reason and design for marriage. It’s not a trap or sentence.

If we are going to understand the Christian family, it needs to be in the context of the church family. We do not exist as separate entities on our own but we exist as families within God's family.

We all go through seasons when life is upside down and we experience troubles, however God is able to take us through and from those troubles into a place of blessing.

We all go through difficult seasons and we face adversity, however we can rest in the knowledge that God is on our side and He will see us through.

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish. The LORD knows the way of the righteous: The righteous can have peace because a loving God in heaven knows their way, and will protect and preserve them.

If we are not careful and remain focused, we could slip away and end up adrift and further away from where God intends for us to be.
