The Focus Point Podcast

We are starting our STRONG series in the book of Joshua! We are in the homestretch of the “Journey to the Promised Land” series. In this episode, we are going to see 2 things that God wants Joshua, the people of Israel, and us to BE.

In this episode, we are going to be taking a 30,000ft view of Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. But we are also going to take some dives into the books to see some key moments in the story we have been following in the “Journey to the Promised Land” series. We are also going see how having “continued faith” can help us and how a lapse in faith can cost us as it did Moses.

In this episode, we are going to be at something God showed me while I was on vacation in Myrtle Beach. I hope that what God showed me encourages you like it be me.

In this episode, we are going to be taking a flyover look at the rest of the book of Exodus while zooming in on a few scenes in those chapters. We are going to see how God provides for us, how God instructs us, and how we need people to help up in our life - because God doesn’t want us to do life alone.

It is time to do some celebrating! There are times along our journey when we can see how God has brought us to where we are and how He has helped us get there!

As we continue on in our series in Exodus, we are at the Red Sea and Israel starts to have doubts that God is really going to help them escape the pursuing Egyptians. But we are going to see how…. 1) God keeps His promises, 2) God is with you, 3) God is a miracle worker, 4) God is a way maker, and 5) God is fighting for you! (Remember the Journey to the Promised Land theme so far… God always keeps...

In this episode, we are going to be looking at the 10 plagues of Egypt and what God wants us to learn from them and how God keeps His word… so we can have continued faith in Him. We will also take a brief moment and look at the final plague as the instructions for the Passover event show up in another event later in Israel’s journey to the Promised Land.

In this episode, we are going to look at how making excuses can delay our progress toward our Promised Land. Even though we know that God will be with us we still make a thousand excuses as to why we can’t do what God has asked us to do. Moses had excuses, but God has a promise.

Have you ever felt like you have made a mistake and God can’t use you because of it? Well, in this episode, we are going to see how God thinks differently about you because if you aren’t dead, God is not done with you! Also, we are going to see how God hears us - so have continued faith! Link for the episode referenced in the episode—> https://anchor.fm/focuspointpodcast/episodes/YHWH---S4-E21-e1j...

In this episode, we are going to see extreme faith and trust in God. We are also going to see how faith and trust in God is rewarded. This is our combined theme for the last few series: God always keeps his promises, but we must remain faithful to him even when the future isn’t clear, because faith in God’s plans will be rewarded, so have continued faith!

As we continue on in our series “The Journey to the Promised Land”, we are starting a series in the book of Exodus! In this episode, we are going to see a promise that God made with the nation of Israel. We are also going to see how Egypt, which was once considered a promised land for the Israelites, is now more like a prison because of the fear of the new Pharaoh.

God has good plans for our lives. But we may not always understand everything that is happening until we get to where God is taking us. It is then that we look back and see how God has been with us every step of the way.

No one likes waiting… Abraham didn’t want to wait. Joseph didn’t want to wait. We don’t like to wait. But it is a part of the process. Sometimes we just have to wait for God to reveal the good He has for us!

As we continue our look at the life of Joseph, we are going to see how Joseph handles the temptation of jeopardizing his integrity to possibly get more than he already had. We will also see how this temptation to jeopardize our integrity as we pursue our dreams or goals is just as big of problem for us. Also, we are going to see how God is with us and how that helps us reach our goals without chan...

In this episode, we are going to see how people don’t always view your dreams plans or goals the same way you do. We are also going to see how important it is to remember that God is a god of dreams, and it’s important to not leave God behind as we pursue our dreams.

In this episode, we are going to lay the foundation for the “Dreams” series. We are also going to dive into the verses that we are using as the foundation for this series as we look at the life of Joseph.

We are continuing our brief look at Jacob and Esau. We are going to see how God’s plans prevail even when we don’t understand what is going on. In this episode, we are going to see a similar situation to another brother story we saw earlier in our series in the book of Genesis. We are going to see if the outcome is different or the same and what that means for us in our lives. We are also going to...

Over the next 2 episodes, we will be looking briefly at Jacob and Esau’s story. We are going to see how God keeps His promises and how God has good things for us, but our hearts need to be in the right place. We are also going to see how God’s plans for us will always prevail - even if we take steps to go our own way. You can find their entire story in Genesis 25-36. (This is episode 15 in our ser...

As we bring our “Look to the Stars” series to a close, we are going to look at how Abraham has learned that God does keep His promises and that remaining faithful to God helps in the process when Abraham didn’t understand what was going on. In the same way Abraham learned this about God, we can as well. Let’s look at this part of Abraham’s and see what we can learn and how it will help us even whe...

We are returning to the Look to the Stars series! As we continue to look at Abraham’s story we are going to see that it does pay off when we wait on God, instead of trying to help God. Because God keeps His promises, we just need to trust Him even when we don’t understand.

As we enter into a one week rest after Easter, we wanted to look back at the first episode of this year to ready our hearts and minds to continue on in the “Journey to the Promised Land” series as well as our series in the life of Abraham called “Look to the Stars”. In this episode, we will also be reminded of our word of the year JOURNEY and the passage of Scripture that goes along with it - Psal...

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY!! In the Bible, there are two trees of life. In this episode, we are going to look at both of them. We are also going to look at them in a way that was introduced to me by a sermon clip from another pastor. I hope that you are blessed and encouraged by the words in this episode!

In this episode, we are going to look at the words of the prophet Isaiah as he accounts what would happen to Jesus.

We begin Holy Week today. We celebrate Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. This event also caused many people to realize that Jesus was indeed the Messiah.

In this episode, we are going to see how Abraham tried to help God keep His promise to him. We will see how sometimes we do the same thing and try to help God. Finally, we will also see how trying to help God can delay what God has for us.
