In this powerful follow-up to “Pentecost: The Forgotten Moment,” we shift our focus from the event to the people—those who responded with obedience, and those who didn’t. Out of 500 who saw the resurrected Jesus, only 120 waited, prayed, and obeyed. These were the Remnant. This week’s message challenges us to evaluate: Are we part of the 120, or are we clinging to comfort like the 380? Discover wh...

This is our core verse for today Acts 2:1–4 (NKJV)“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place… Suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind… and there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire… and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit…”

As we continue through our “Live Like…” series is, we are talking about generosity being a normal part of our lives. GENEROUS— A readiness to GIVE more than necessary. And for the Christian, giving is the nature of our Father. As a matter of fact, I’m sure most of you have either heard or said, “You're acting just like your father”

Let’s remember, at it’s core GENEROSITY is ultimately a heart posture, an attitude about giving.

GENEROSITY is ultimately a heart posture, an attitude about giving. GENEROSITY is our norm is a revelation we’re still growing in as a church, but we’ve definitely made it consistent practice.

Jesus Himself didn’t even start His earthly ministry until the Holy Spirit came upon Him. Think about it, both the public ministry of Jesus in the gospels and the public ministry of the church through the book of Acts began with the empowerment of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus told us, “these signs will follow them that believe,” we simply have to be open to embracing our new creation. This spiritual reality is for every believer! We are speaking spirits, confined to humanity. And tongues is simple speaking a spiritual language. As a matter of fact Jesus actually told us, “My words are Spirit.”

Serving is our Privilege” simply allows us the opportunity to discover what God will do through anyone willing to be open to their assignment.

The reason “Serving is our Privilege” is we understand that as we offer our lives as a sacrifice to God, He inspires our heart to want to be part of what He’s doing. As a matter of fact, Jesus takes it personal when we serve. “When you’ve done it unto the least of one of these, you’ve done unto Me.”

Jesus repeatedly made this statement, “The Greatest in the Kingdom will be a SERVANT”

Colossians 3:23-24 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Matthew 20:26-27 NIV Whoever, wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave- just as the Son of Man did not come to be...

Remember, Spirit within, Spirit upon— Think about it, Jesus is the FIRSTBORN, our example of one born of the Spirit and He’s the one who actually said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me” Don’t forget, Jesus repeatedly talked to His disciples about the Holy Spirit.

Live Like. . . Worship is our Desire P6

Pastor John LoBuglio We will be discussing and studying the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the Evidence of Praying in Tongues

Worship is a place we go in the spirit where the people of God not only acknowledge, but reverence God for who He is. And at the end of the day, just like our life of faith, our life of worship, worship becoming our desire, starts with a renewed mind and transformed heart.

Worship is our Desire because; in the words of the apostle Paul, “By the grace of God, I am who I am.” So on our worst day, we still have these new lives Jesus made available for each of us.

Worship is one of the most spiritual things a Christian can take part in. And without question one of the best ways to experience God’s presence in a more tangible way from our human position. Here’s the thing, WORSHIP IS OUR DESIRE, and I realize that it’s not going to be everybody’s desire, but I am presenting to you this morning the opportunity to be a part of where we’re going.

Worship is a spiritual avenue for the people of God to not only acknowledge, but reverence God for who He is. To connect with our Father on a more authentic level.

In “The Live Like Life” there has to be transformation in our thinking for Faith to be our Response. It’s the only way a human can engage in a different dimension, in spiritual living. And believing is the key that unlocks faith.

Ultimately, it’s faith that gives every believer access to God’s world. But like we touched on in our last couple of talks, it’s also why unbelief is so deceptively destructive.

When it comes to Living Like… Faith is our Response, we have to realize that in the scriptures, believing and faith flow together. If we think about it, God not only designed us to live by faith, he actually commanded us to. Seriously, if God makes the same statement 4 times, Habakkuk 2:2, Romans 1:17, Galatians 3:11, Hebrews 10:38, THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH

Here’s the deal, Live Like… Faith is our Response, starts with the understanding that believing and faith go hand in hand.

Please understand, when we talk about being passionate for the Lord, it’s never out of some works approach. Our passion simply grows the better we get to know Him. For example, God is good, Jesus is good, Holy Spirit, good!! And the better we know Him, the clearer this truth becomes. God's plan for His creation hasn't changed. This is why He made us in His image. We're suppose to be an expression...

Jesus is our passion is birthed out of a relationship. “He who loves Me” It’s in relationship that He begins to manifest Himself to each of us. In a Live Like… “Jesus is our Passion” life, we have to realize that it is a life-long process of surrender that keeps us open to transformation, by getting to know Jesus.

Colossians 3:1-3 (NKJV) “If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.”
