Life Bible Church

God is the all-sufficient One God, who made all things, needs nothings, gives life to all, rules over everything, and in whose presence we all exist and live. If we have Him, we have everything! We must be careful that we do not develop a religious nature that assigns omnipotence to limited things. We should instead seek an authentic spiritual life with Jesus at the head.

To know Jesus is the highest aspiration in all of life, so what holds us back from him? Idols, plain and simple. When we Jesus for who He is and set all idols aside, Jesus once again becomes our One and Only. 

Matthew 9:32-38 | How are workers sent out in to the Lord's Harvest, and what should the workers expect their work to look like? Pray, pray that God will send the workers and that the workers will work like Jesus!

Matthew 9:18-31 | Everyone has a reputation, and being a person of faith will certainly draw the attention of the people around us. How do people see us? What if we are laughed at? Will we walk by faith even if everyone else thinks we're crazy? Faith, it turns out, always gets the last laugh.

Matthew 9:14-17 | Jesus' disciples did not fast like John's disciples. Jesus made it clear that they would one day, but these good practices would be more fitting after the new birth where they would be truly beneficial.  Are you in a fasting or a feasting season?

"God is One God" was the prevailing revelation of God for centuries. But then whispers begin to emerge of a Son, and this Son has a major part to play in God's Master Plan. What is His name, and what is the name of His Son?!

Matthew 9: 1-13 | Authority is determined not by what title I give myself, but by what obeys me. Jesus walked in God's power and authority, but used it to serve the least of these. Do we walk in the authority He has given us?

Matthew 8:18-34 | Discipleship has a cost, and it can be steep! Have I really considered what following Jesus will cost me personally? What if He leads me into a storm, or in to a graveyard full of demons? Considering this, will I still say yes to His call? 

Matthew 8:1-17 | God is a miraculous God, and Jesus came to reveal the Father. If this is so why are miracles so rare? There is a relationship between faith and our experience of miraculous things. Lord, increase our faith!

Matthew 7:15-29 | We are all mastered by something, and it will either be a spirit of lawlessness or the Spirit of Christ. What we choose for the foundation of our lives will determine the fruit that we bear in the long run.

Matthew 7:7-14 | How does God treat us when we ask Him for things? If the law of sowing and reaping applies to this principle of prayer, then God gives to us in proportion to the way we treat others. Take the narrow way and do the extraordinary thing- be kind to others!

The holy Word of God is entrusted to the church, and we have the precious pearl of the gospel of the Kingdom. We are to share these things with all who will listen, but there are also times when we must choose who is worthy to receive the precious things of God.

Matthew 7:1-6- Jesus did not say, never make  judgments, but rather, "Do not judge". But what's the difference? There are righteous judgments I must make that will help me discern how to handle the precious pearls of God's truth.  

Matthew 7:1-6 - Jesus did not say, never make  judgments, but rather, "Do not judge". But what's the difference? There are righteous judgments I must make that will help me discern how to handle the precious pearls of God's truth.

Matthew 6:16-18- When I fast, is it to be noticed by men or noticed by God? Fasting gets God's attention, and when His eyes are fixed on us, a breakthrough is coming.

Hear a word from Columbian Missionary, Brian Miller on the Lord's Prayer!

Jesus taught that our giving and our personal praying should be done in secret- for God's eyes only. But is there also a deep connection between the two?

When our wills are submitted to Jesus, and we are walking by the Spirit, we will have enemies for Christ’s sake. How should we deal with them? Jesus says our strength lies in the ability to love them, bless them, and pray for them.

God is a peacemaker and a God of everlasting faithfulness. His faithfulness is born in us as a fruit of the Holy Spirit. God desires that the children of His kingdom be covenant-keeping and faithful like their Father in Heaven.

Jesus did not come to do away with the Law, but to fulfill it. By the Spirit, He has forever completed all that was necessary for our salvation and brought us from a life under the letter into an abundant life in the Spirit.

Jesus said we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We are here to cause a defined effect, to bring a visible and tangible enhancement, by bringing Christ into every arena of life.

There is a wedding feast coming, and the only guests allowed entrance will be the rightful citizens of the kingdom, the true sons and daughters of God. When the time for the Heavenly Banquet comes, God Himself has provided for us to be dressed for the occasion. Have you put off the old self and put on the righteousness of Christ?

To make progress in a spiritual life, we must walk by the Spirit and break down the flesh through discipline and perseverance.  Fasting and spiritual warfare bring us to the end of our strength where God’s power begins, supplied by His Spirit.

Repentance prepares the way for the coming of the Lord. The same repentance that invites Jesus into our lives also keeps our spirits fit for His Holy Spirit.  Do we practice repenting to man and to God?

Being led by the Spirit means receiving words from God- a combination of “living words” and “written words,” quickened by the Holy Spirit.
