In the meantime, we can rely on God to meet all our needs here on earth.

The death and resurrection of Jesus was the culmination of His ministry. He gave His life so we would have forgiveness of sins and live. When He said it is finished, He meant it.

As we head towards Easter weekend where we acknowledge the death and burial of Jesus and celebrate His subsequent resurrection, we will look at the week before. Jesus made His way into Jerusalem on a colt fulfilling prophecy in Zechariah 9:9. The servant King is making His way towards fulfilling His purpose as our King and savior.

As believers we're on a journey. This world is not our permanent residence. As citizens of heaven we are called to make a difference here. We are called to pray first of all for good government. When we do we should expect to see a breakthrough for the furtherance of the Gospel.

We have many examples both in Scripture and Church history of the effectiveness of prayer and fasting. "For such a time as this we have been brought into the kingdom." In light of all that is going on in the world it is time for the Church to get more serious about seeking a new Great Awakening that will change the course of history as we approach the end of this age. May we stir up the Hope withi...

Last week we talked about how God has a plan and purpose for your life. Today I want to talk to you about the price that accompanies that purpose. Will you be willing to pay it?

God has a plan and purpose for your life. The gospel is so much more than being forgiven. It is about being set free to serve the One who has purchased our freedom. And now that we are free, we can finally live the life He called us to live, not only in freedom, but in service. We should all be doing our part to ensure the body is strong and functioning as God intended it to. We all have a role to...

God is trustworthy. What He has given to us has equipped us to live a godly life. This "treasure in earthen vessels" enables us to experience peace and contentment based on "Christ in us, the hope of glory". Our born again lifestyle should reflect Him.

The last instructions Jesus gave was to go in to all the earth and make disciples. He also told us that He would send a Helper. The Holy Spirit will give us power and His gifts to accomplish what Jesus has given us to do. We need His power now just as much as they needed it then.

We finally come to the end of the letter to the Romans. In this final chapter, Paul greets over 20 people by name, a couple that are unnamed, and several churches that are meeting in people's homes. These are people who he had met along the way in his missionary travels, and it seems he intended to meet them in Rome. He also closes the letter with greetings on nine other believers with him when he...

As we near the final chapter of this lengthy letter Paul mentions how satisfied he is with the believers' while reminding them (and us) of "some points". Then he expresses his desire to visit them and afterwards head to Spain. He explains the reason for the delay was preaching all around where Christ had never been heard of. Since he was done, he was going to deliver some much needed aid from Mace...

In this chapter, Paul is going to reveal a third way we are to behave when interacting with other Christians. Basically, he is going to deal with selfishness. As Christians we are to love God and love others with all our hearts. We are to serve one another. And Christ was the ultimate example of servanthood. His entire purpose was serving us. To give His life for ours. Our goal as Christians shoul...
