We Are LifeChurch

Now is not the time to suffer through church services, ticking time until they end. Now is the time to muster every cell in our bodies to stand and worship God.

There is only one thing on this earth that can stop God from doing a work in our lives, and that thing is our own human spirit. WE are the ones that limit God.

Pastor Brown preaches on the power of personal and corporate vision. He also shares some important and exciting information regarding where God is leading LifeChurch in 2012.

Throughout the Bible, there are 4 images that represent the spiritual attributes of a Christian. Pastor Brown presents what each image means and how each one fits in our lives.

Sometimes the most faith filled thing you can do is stand still and wait on the Lord. Wait, and trust that God will work things out.

John the Baptist, whom Jesus called "the greatest of prophets," could have claimed that title with pride. Instead, he laid it on Jesus. Saying he had his own mantle to carry, Jesus was the Messiah, not him.

The devils that walk this earth, purposing to torture and oppress, are forever searching for a dry home to live in. Pastor Brown expounds on the three ways these devils attack us and how we can prevent them from finding a home in us.

Today is your day, your day to be healed, your day to get your answers. Have faith in prayer, and the Lord will hear you from heaven. Don't let your surroundings discourage you, never give up seeking your promise from God.

A slave, by earthly definition, serves his master not with love, but with bitterness and contempt. Why then would our loving God, call us to be servants to Him? Because serving God is nothing like serving any other master.

Because we are caught between two worlds, human beings today can become Spiritually dead, meaning they are disconnected from God's Spirit, led instead by fleshly desires and appetites. In that, they're faith becomes flatlined.

Just as the alabaster box that was broken for Jesus was an extravagant form of worship, so is our praise to Him simply because He's worthy. LifeChurch presents our second annual music concert with guest music directors, Mark & Ashley Waddle.

As Christians, God wishes us to bear fruit and grow. However we cannot do either until we have first plowed up the fallow ground of our hearts in order to make it fertile and rich enough to grow the seeds of life God wishes to plant there.

Our God is power incarnate, He is infinitely great, and He has called us to step out into an incredible journey of greatness with Him. He's just waiting for us to take that first step into the unseen so He can blow our minds.

We have an eternal element to us as human beings. When we try and fill that element with temporal things, we feel even more empty and restless. Jesus has commissioned us with the highest calling of bringing souls to Him and to heaven, to be fishers of men.

Sometimes we can pray and pray and pray to be delivered from our situation, not knowing that that hard place, that impossibility, is exactly where God wants us, so that He can produce safety and peace from chaos and fear.

Human nature is rebellious. We think we need to help God out with His plan, kind of tweak it to make it better, but all God wants from us is obedience. If we simply obey Him, the miracle we need begins to appear on the horizon.

Pastor Brown, Ric Perez, and Marvin Hinds all speak from what God has laid on their hearts in a special message that can only be described as Spirit lead.

Life is going to throw stuff at you. We can't avoid it, it will happen. The good news is, God's got a plan. No matter what you go through, no matter how deep your valley, God's got a plan. He WILL see you through.

Someone who has a different kind of spirit is someone who is outside the norm. They don't usually flow with the majority, and they listen for God in unusual places...and find Him. The need for this different kind of Spirit is greater now than ever before.

No matter where you are in your walk with God, He can still call you for a purpose. He called Gideon when Gideon himself was in the middle of doubting God's very existence, but because Gideon stayed true in his values, God honored him.

In modern culture, the word *awesome* has lost its meaning. In the modern church, God has lost a title that perfectly describes Him. To be *Awesome* is to inspire *wonder, awe, and dread.* Too many worship a *cool* God, instead of an *Awesome* one.

In this final chapter in the study of the book of James, we read that a mature believer is prayerful in times of troubles. He is patient in his trial, relying on his relationship with God to see him through.

As Christians, we are trees of life. And as trees, we need to continuously be growing, via our relationship with Christ, in order to bear fruit, for our fruit is what makes us attractive to the world.

Continuously there is a war trying to rage within us between our flesh and the Spirit of God. If these wars are allowed to wage, strife and discord will manifest within us, creating a wedge between us, God, and our church family.

Through prayer there is unity, and with unity there is power. God isn't looking for someone with the best tools and the perfect talents to complete his will, all He needs is someone to agree with it. When we agree with Him and submit completely to Him, therein lies His blessings and power.
