King David: From Rags to Riches

2 Corinthians 9:7–8 (ESV) Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.

The key to David's success was not his position, or even his resources. The key to David's success is that he Honored God; he was a man after God's own heart

Dragging Around Or Pressing Forward?

New Year's Eve Sunday PM Service with Marty Murray

What Do You See And Hear?

The enemies plan is for believers to no longer believe. He uses the visible obstacles to influence us in such a way that we allow them to rob us of our faith and in doing so affect our ability to live overcoming Christian lives.

Committed, Tested, And Empowered

In Christ, God became man and was born into this world to redeem mankind. As a man, Jesus was Committed, Tested, and Empowered in His earthly walk as He carried out His purpose and destiny for His life. He lived it and accomplished the mission He was sent to do.

In the same way, we too must recognize that as our example, Jesus is not only showing us the way the Christian life unfolds for us as His disciples, but also that like Him, we too can overcome and live the life of purpose and destiny we are also called to live in carrying out the will of God in this earth.

Faith Is Seen

What we learned today is that faith is laying hold of the unseen realm of hope and bringing it into the realm of reality. Faith is what opens the door for the power of the Word of God to be released into this natural realm, into the world we live in and into our very beings.

The Bible teaches us that faith is the evidence of things not seen. In other words, the Bible teaches us that you can see faith when it is evident in the lives of people. Faith is seen in the way people speak, and faith is seen in the things that people do

A Bountiful Eye

When we come to a place where we recognize God as Provider and realize that there is no lack in the Kingdom, we have begun to see through a new lens. We can now live life through the perspective of a bountiful eye. As a result, we can freely do what God desires knowing He is faithful.

Naomi Is Coming Back Home

Perhaps you find yourself in a situation that reminds you of Naomi and her predicament. I want you to know today that God is visiting His people once again. I want you to hear the call of God to come back home.

Like the prodigal, you don’t have to be completely well and whole to come back; you just need hear the Father’s call to you to come back and let our loving, and merciful God begin His work of reconciliation, healing, restoration in your life.

Come back home and He will save you. He will make you whole!

Let There Be Light

As we have seen, regardless of the people’s reaction, Jesus, as well as His disciples continued to shine the light of the gospel to those around them. It was their privilege, & their charge, to shine as they were commanded, not based on how the people responded. In fact, they prayed that God would empower them to do so even in the midst of opposition.

Beautifying The House of God

Jesus revealed His glory while He walked the earth, and now, as His body, we are still to reveal His glory. It begins by becoming a part of the House, but it doesn't end there. He continues His work by beautifying the House. That process is simply letting Christ shine in us and through us.

Bringing Freedom Into God’s House

God has been waiting for a generation of believers who understand their mission and choose to fulfill it. Unlike the house of Joseph, as we do so, we must do things His way, and not the way of the world. If we partner with the world, we continue to enable the enemy’s dominance. We must partner with God, and following His Word, bring His ways into the world where we live. Only then can we truly bring His Kingdom here.

“Let Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.”
