This world is full of hurt and heartache. It's chalked to the brim with deceit and betrayal. And that's because we live in a fallen world...full of people who make mistakes. It's because we have an enemy who has a goal to steal, kill and destroy. Now while we can't always avoid hurt and heartache...while we can't always dodge betrayal...there IS a way to deter deceit. Understand that God is FOR us...

A lot of people make this common mistake when considering salvation. They think that they need to clean up there act BEFORE coming to Him. They think that they can't be received...unless they are ALREADY clean. But is this true? Can this idea be found in the Scriptures? Certainly not. It's just the opposite! When we realize our sinful state...when we see our sin for the filth that it is...we're to...

In today's message, we'll be encouraged to submit to God. To allow Him to work in and through us. Remember that we're not to take pride in the works of our hands. We must realize that it is our FATHER that is doing the work. All WE must do...is say YES to Him. And when we do, He'll empower us to DO what is right. He'll lead us in the right direction. However, when we try to accomplish things in th...

God's ways are not OUR ways. God's ways are not the WORLD'S ways. They are HIGHER. And that's why it's so important to not follow after the ways of this world. That's why is CRUCIAL that we not lean on our OWN understanding. As believers, we need to realize that God truly knows what's best for us. His plan is PERFECT. He has our best interest at heart. And it's with that understanding that we TRUS...

The Scriptures teach us that when we walk according to the Spirit, then we will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Do you believe that? It's true! When we submit to God and allow His Spirit to work in us...we'll be enabled to walk in the truth. We'll be given the grace to do what is right. We will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh when we're being lead by our Heavenly Father. We need to be commi...

God hasn't left us alone. He didn't offer His salvation...just to turn around and leave us to fend for ourselves. He is there with us...every step of the way. So in any situation of life...He's there. He wants to lead us and guide us. He wants to strengthen us. He wants to direct our path. It's His desire that we would HEAR His voice and OBEY it. But even the act of obedience...comes as a result o...

Where do you go in times of trouble? Who do you turn to...when your world gets turned upside down? Do you rely on your own resources? Do you look to the solutions of this world? Do you lean on your own understanding? In today's message, we'll learn that when difficult times arise, we're to turn to God. As believers, we must understand that HE is for us. We don't have to face the battles of life AL...

Repentance is VITAL in the life of a Christian. It's KEY in the process of salvation. First, we must understand what TRUE repentance is. It's not just saying that you're sorry. It's not just a feeling of guilt. True repentance brings a response...it brings change. When you come to a place of realizing your sin...you make the decision to turn AWAY from it and walk in God's ways. You submit to Him a...

We're all human. We're ALL imperfect. We all make mistakes. And that's why God sent His Son. Through the shed blood of Jesus, we can be cleansed and forgiven. We can be set FREE. And that process begins with a heart of repentance. But what IS repentance? Is it simply saying 'I'm Sorry'...or is it MORE? Well as Pastor Terry will explain to us, repentance means that you come to a place of humility....

In our study today, we'll learn how DANGEROUS compromise can be. Especially for believers! When we, at any time, feel that compromise will HELP us...we're sadly mistaken. There is NO excuse for compromising God's Word. There's NEVER a reason for us to reject what our FATHER has said...in order to accomplish something in this life. Christian, we can't ignore or set aside His Word! And we shouldn't...

Why did David show Saul mercy? That's the million dollar question! Just put yourself in his shoes. What would YOU do if you had a Saul in your life? How would YOU react? Would you extend the same kind of mercy DAVID did? In today's message, we'll learn who it is that fights our battles. For Christians, it's our Heavenly Father. There's no need to take matters into our own hands. It's not up to US...

This life is short. It's fleeting. We're here one moment...and gone the next. And while we're here on this earth...we're to be about our Father's business. So as Christians, we need to be HEARING from Him. We need to have direction, discernment and godly understanding. We can't be affective in His ministry...if we're walking according to our own worldly wisdom. That's why we need God. That's why w...

As Christians, we're to be a people who LOVE. And not with this WORLDLY sense of LOVE...but a REAL and TRUE BIBLICAL love. When we deal with the Saul's of life...we're to do so...in love. We're to deal with them...Scripturally. Understand that in ALL situations, we're to handle things according to God's ways and NOT our own. The Word is clear. We're not to lean to our own understanding. We're to t...

In today's message, we'll be learning about the Saul's of life. About those who are self-centered and self-seeking. Those who follow after their own desires. Those who aren't concerned for ANYONE...other than themselves. Pastor Terry will teach us how we're to DEAL with these kinds of people. You see, while we're not to allow people to run over us...we're also called to act in LOVE. In situations...

Do you know any Saul's in your life? Self-centered, self-seeking, self-promoting people who are only motivated by what THEY can get out of life? Perhaps YOU are a Saul? What motivates YOU? Why do you do the things you do? Are you focused on pleasing yourSELF? Are you bent on having things done YOUR WAY? You see as believers, this isn't how we're supposed to behave. These aren't the qualities and c...

Where do you go in times of trouble. Where do you find comfort and strength. Where do you take refuge? Well as believers, we have a Heavenly Father who is there for us during our times of trial and tribulation. He has not left us alone. Sometimes He uses these trials to teach us how much we truly NEED Him. But understand that it's not just during the HARD times that we need our Father. We need Him...

Salvation isn't a one-time thing. It's a process. We don't just say one prayer and then walk away...continuing in our sinful life as usual. Understand that as soon as we confess and repent...as soon as we accept Jesus as our Savior...we begin to change. God begins His work of grace in our lives. Slowly, day by day, we'll be given the power to walk in His ways. We'll be given the desire to DO what...

In our message today, we'll see that David is a man on the run. King Saul's affections toward him went from FONDNESS...to HATRED. And it's the king's jealousy...that has put David in danger. And so David flees. He seeks refuge in a cave. But believer, where do YOU go when you need shelter? Who do YOU turn to when you need help? Understand that WE have a King that is FOR us! In the book of Psalms w...

You've heard it before, but the fact still remains. GOD has a PLAN for our lives. And He is FAITHFUL to COMPLETE it. The Scriptures confirm this for us. In the book of Philippians we read: 'Being confident in this very thing, that HE who begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.' So you see, God wants to work in and through you. He wants to finish the work that He st...

In our time of study today, we'll learn of the struggle between King Saul and David. Pastor Terry will share with us that Saul could be considered a TYPE of the enemy. A TYPE of Satan. You see, he was jealous of David. His affections went from a fondness...to a hatred. And eventually, Saul sought to KILL David. And that's JUST like Satan. It's His goal to steal, kill, and destroy. And when you're...

In today's message, we'll see that King Saul's affections towards David...quickly turned into jealousy and hatred. Have YOU ever encountered a situation like that, believer? Most of us have. But we can't allow the Sauls in our lives to deter us from following the path God has laid out before us. We need to trust in HIM and allow His power to work in and through us. We need not fear man...because m...

Life is full of challenges. But as believers, we have a power that we can draw on. We have a GOD that is FOR us. Remember that David defeated Goliath. And in doing so, he captured the hearts of the people of Israel. But that doesn't mean things were always rosy for David. We'll quickly learn that even after doing RIGHT...he'll encounter trials. You see, there WILL be people who will come against u...

In the Scriptures, David is described as being a man after God's own heart. But what exactly does that MEAN? Well, it doesn't mean that David was perfect. In fact, as we continue to study his life, we'll learn that he is VERY human. He failed...just like the rest of us. But what we'll consistently SEE from David...is his heart. Sure, David made mistakes. But what did he DO about it? Well, when Dav...

In our message today, Pastor Terry will ask a very important question. One that we need to consider. And that question is: Do people know that God is WITH you? When you speak...are they hearing HIS words and not your own? Are they seeing Him in the things that you do? You see as believers, it should be our DESIRE to be known as a child of God. We should WANT others to recognize His work of grace i...
