4 BAD WAYS TO LOOK AT YOUR VALUE “Jesus was going through the city of Jericho. A man was there named Zacchaeus, who was the chief tax collector, and he was wealthy. He wanted to see who Jesus was, but he was too short to see above the crowd. So he ran ahead to a place where Jesus would come, and he climbed a sycamore tree so he could see him. When Jesus came to that place, he looked up The post Ho...

“Now one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, so he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. When a woman who had lived a sinful life in that town learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume, and as she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hai...

“22 What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun? 23 All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest. This too is meaningless.” Ecclesiastes 2:22-23 We know that IN all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28 Ways To Use Your Pain For God: USE...

“Great is the LORD! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure his greatness.” Psalm 145:3 (NLT) 1. ACCEPT HIS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— Ephesians 2:8 “Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace withGod through our Lord Jesus Christ” Romans 5:1 God has said, “Never...

Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sin...

“No one knows what will happen in the future and there is no one who can tell us.” Ecclesiastes 8:7 “Now listen, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to a certain city and we will stay there a year.

” 4 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good isit? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is The...

Faith that allows me to trust God WHEN I TRUST GOD, HE GIVES ME HIS WISDOM! “If any of you lack wisdom, you should pray and ask God, because he gives it generously to anyone who asks!

Just ask!” James 1:5 “Those who become wise will be happy; wisdom is the key to a blessed life.” Proverbs 3:18 “Wisdom is go...

When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.16 Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters.“ James 1:13-16 We Are No...

“James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ:To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations. Greetings!” James 1:1 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing ofyour faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you...

Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. Timothy 6:11 “But you” “Man of God” Important factors “Flee from all (of) this.” Lesson to Paul and Tim...

The post Getting Over You: Eternal over Temporary appeared first on Impact Christian Church.

God designed us to enjoy people and to use things. But, we live in a society that uses people and enjoys things 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we wrought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.” Timothy. 6:-6-8 God wants us to move toward contentment 1.) Trust God completely “ But godliness...

“There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.” Proverbs 16:25 These are the things you are to teach and insist on. 3 If anyone teaches otherwise and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, 4 they are conceited and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result i...

This must be deleted from our thought process: Our problem is not a scale problem, our problem is a sin problem. Question Can we have peace with Jesus? Yes, we can. Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we nowstand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God...

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all. 17 As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.”[a] He i...

“Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.” Romans 15:7 Justification:  Being made right with God.  1.We are made right by faith, not by what we do. What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3 ...

23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[a] through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—26 he...
