In today's message, we'll begin to look at the life of David. We'll start out with one of the most famous stories in the Bible...the one where David defeats Goliath. Pastor Terry will use this story to remind us that God can use ANYONE. It doesn't matter how old or young you are. It doesn't matter how much strength or intellect you possess. The ONLY thing that matters, is that you're WILLING. And...

Many people today think that by going to church on all the traditional holidays and saying an occasional prayer...is good enough. They think that that is pleasing to God. But that's not exactly the case. Our Creator desires more than just our time and lip service. He wants our hearts. He wants us to submit to Him WHOLLY. Understand that God desires to commune DAILY with His people. He wants them t...

Sin brings death. Plain and simple. Sure, it's pleasurable for a season. But once the pleasure is gone...all that's left is shame and guilt. Then of course, destruction. That's right. When we do not deal with sin...it only gets worse. And in the end...it brings death. But thankfully our Heavenly Father loved us enough to send His Son. Jesus, our Messiah, bled and died so that we might be FORGIVEN...

The Scriptures teach us that pride comes before destruction and a haughty spirit before the fall. So it would be fair enough to say that PRIDE isn't exactly a GOOD thing. Especially when that PRIDE...is in OURSELVES. Understand that the abilities, talents and strengths we possess CAME from God! It's true! Those gifts were not acquired by your own power. They were given to you BY GOD...for HIS glor...

How big is God to YOU? Is He big enough to handle your problems? Is He big enough to provide for your needs? Of course these questions may seem silly. Especially considering the fact that our God IS big enough! But some people act as if He's NOT. They struggle with unbelief, doubt and fear. They lack trust. When it comes down to the nitty-gritty...they don't believe that God is in control. But as...

It's a fact that we serve a God who gives second chances. And that's because He LOVES us and WANTS us to succeed! He's not a hateful God who will strike us dead the MOMENT we made a mistake. Just because we fail...it doesn't mean that He's through with us. As long as we have a genuine and humble heart that WANTS to confess and repent...He's there. He's ready to cleanse you and RESTORE you. He want...

Are you aware that there's a battle taking place RIGHT NOW for YOUR soul? It's true! Regardless of whether or not we can SEE the war taking place...it still doesn't change the fact that it's waging. Understand that there's a spiritual realm and there are powers and principalities and rulers of darkness AT WAR. And so we must be on guard. We must pray for the grace to discern what is of God and wha...

God has given us all that we need to live a life pleasing to Him. We have His Word...His loving and gentle instructions. We also have His Spirit that leads and guides us. Understand that there's nothing within us that's CAPABLE of allowing us to walk in His ways. WE simply canNOT please God in our own strength. It's ALL possible through His Son, our Messiah, Jesus. By His grace we're enabled to wa...

As believers, we need to understand that God's will...will be done. And we need to consider that in all that we do. We must realize that God is sovereign. His ways are higher than our ways. His plan is perfect and His WILL will be accomplished. And what a blessing it is...that He allows us to be a part of it all! That's right! God doesn't make us sit on the sidelines. He WANTS us to be active in H...

When you encounter times of trial and difficulty...remember what God has done for you. Remember what He has ALREADY delivered you from. Just think back to your days before salvation. Consider the state that your heart was in. You were LOST in sin...destined for HELL. But God wanted to give you HOPE. That's why He sent His Son. Never forget the ways in which He has expressed His love to you. Let th...

In today's message, we'll get to witness what happens when people dabble in paganism and idolatry. When they refuse to put OFF those things that are not of God. You see, the Scriptures clearly tell us that the children of God are NOT to take part in these evil practices. We're not to be a part of wickedness...even if it seems innocent or playful. But what about YOU, believer? Are there practices o...

Christian, are you aware that God still speaks to His people? It's true! He desires to speak to YOU! So...in what WAYS does He speak? Well, sometimes He DOES speak in an audible voice, but that's not the ONLY way God talks to us. He speaks to us through His Word. He speaks to us through His Spirit. And in today's message, we'll learn that SOMETIMES God uses other brothers and sisters to speak to u...

As parents, it's good that we take our children to church. It's GOOD that we include them in activities with believers. But don't think that just because they are participating, they're saved. You see, they MUST be born-again. We ALL need to be! We can't ride on the coattails of our parents or grandparents. We can't rely on the fact that we're good people who attend church. The Bible says that the...

In today's message, we learned the importance of family. Pastor Terry will remind us that we're put into our family...for a reason. Just as in any other situation, we're there with a purpose. We're there to make an impact. We'll learn that it's in the home where people become who they are. How you bring up your children...makes a difference. Sure, ultimately it's up to THEM to decide whether or no...

Pastor Terry will exhort us to make a decision TODAY. That God will be number one in our lives. That we'll submit to Him and His Word. That we'll commit to walking in His ways. That we will ALLOW Him to work in and through us. We're told in the Scriptures to choose THIS DAY whom we will serve. So what's it going to be? Will you continue to serve SELF...which essentially means that you're serving S...

Time goes by so fast. People are born one minute...and gone the next. We only have a limited amount of time on this earth...and NONE of us know when we will breathe our last. So with that being said, we must make our time...count. How are YOU spending your time? Are you investing it in the things of God? In people? In being a servant? Or...are you selfishly wasting your time? Squandering it away o...

As believers, we're called to go forth and share the gospel...the good news...with others. You see, there are a lot of people in this world who are lost and dying. They need hope. They need a Savior. And we have the answer! We know that by grace through faith...they can be SAVED! So why hold that in? As servants of the Most High God, we should be actively sowing seeds. We need to be sharing the tr...

In the book of Ecclesiastes, we learn that it's much better to be wise...than a fool. And the wisdom spoken of here isn't pertaining to WORLDLY wisdom. It's in reference to GODLY wisdom. And we attain THAT, by submitting to Him. By studying His Word. By allowing His grace to work in and through us. You see, we NEED His wisdom in this life. The Scriptures are clear...we're not to lean on our OWN un...

As believers, we understand that we're living in earthly tents. One day, our bodies will pass away. And while that's not always the most PLEASANT thought...we can still have hope. Hope in knowing that this is not the end. On this earth, we're simply passing through. We're here to do the work of our Creator...until our time is done. Pastor Terry will remind us that we have the hope of Heaven. We ca...

In this life, we will all be held accountable for our actions. We will be held accountable for what we know. No one is exempt from this. So understand that what we DO...matters. You see, if you're a true born-again believer, then your actions should confirm that. The things that you do, the words that you speak...they should all reflect the work that God is doing in your life. However, if your fru...

As humans, we all experience times of trial and difficulty. And sometimes, we want to give up. We want to give in. But as believers, we have a place that we can go in these times. We can GO...to the feet of Jesus. He is there for us in our time of need. We don't have to look to our right or our left. We don't have to fix things in our own strength. All we need to do...is look to HIM. Seek His face...

The Bible is full of wonderful principles for life. And when you apply them to your heart...they will bring blessings. Well in today's message, we'll learn a few of those principles. One of them is that we're not to accept bribes...regardless of what WE think the outcome will be. Understand that God truly knows what's best for us. His Word is given to us for our GOOD. And when we submit to it...wh...

The Scriptures teach us that the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. Understand that it's not MONEY that's evil...it's our LOVE of...that causes problems. As believers, we must realize that it's GOD who gives and takes away. He is our provider. We must learn to trust that He will see to it that we have what we need. We don't need to strive for financial gain. Sure, we're called to work...

Think before you speak. This is a GREAT rule of thumb for us ALL. Often times, we speak before we've truly considered the impact of what we are saying might have on others. But as believers, we must understand that our words have meaning. They can impact people...sometimes positively...other times...negatively. So before you open your mouth...think about what you're going to say. Ask the FATHER to...
