No Possible Way!
When we see people around us that are horrific in their lifestyle, we often say there is no possible way that God would save them. Whether a mass murder, rapist, terrorist or whomever, we often write them off. God however, hasn’t and doesn’t write them off. He love all as we see in John 3:16 and has made a way to have a personal relationship with them. Just…
Divine Appointments
I apologize that the end of the sermon did not get recorded. With at said, we are looking at the way God directs us to follow in obedience to His call and His leading. The way we do this is to be immersed in Him, His Word and to listen to the still small voice that He speaks with inside each person that follows Jesus fully. We see how Philip listened and the Ethiopian…
A Serious Warning
Often times we skirt around the issue of true faith in Jesus as well as the matters of the battle in the supernatural realm. In Acts 8 we see Simon the sorcerer seeing the full power of God and wants it for personal and selfish reasons/motives. His heart was not right and his motive was off base. He has a non-saving faith and also a wow factor believe/amazement at the…
Got Persecution?
In the early church, they encountered difficulties and joyous times. We are also going to or already experiencing that. As we see, joy is in the suffering, the pain, the hurt and the struggle when we go through it with God. As you look at His Word in this message, may you find strength, courage and endurance to go through whatever you are going through. I pray for you,…
His Story
As we look at Act 7 we see that Stephen prove that God is who He said He was, is and His promises. His story is one of Truth and Grace and it woven through out the Old and New Testament. Stephen respectfully tells God’s story, ones these religious leaders knew very well as the evidence of who God is. Not wanting to hear the truth as they couldn’t handle the…
Passion and Truth…is that a crime?
Stephen we see in Acts 6 is selected as a deacon. Then he serves, many come to faith in Jesus and the leaders then drag him in on false trumped up charges. Stephen faces a mock trial like that of the Jesus. He never waivers and never falters from the truth. Stephen remains constant, passionate and holds on to the truth. Quote…Working hard for something we…
How Can I Help?
When we look at Acts 6:1-7 we see there was a need to be met. God used Godly men filled with the Holy Spirit and full of wisdom to meet the need. He also used everyone in the body as they gave of their time, gifts, talents and possessions. We have to ask ourselves, “How Can I Help?” and What can I do? When it comes to serving in the body of Christ, we need…
When God Says DO IT!
We look at a review of the first 12 verses in Acts 5. Then we delve into the nitty gritty of the struggles that come from obedience and following God. No matter the issues, the struggles, the challenges and trials, we can trust that the Father has a plan and the end result is for His Glory. The apostles met with major demands and situations that were overcome able by the…
One for All, All for One
When we are in the family of God, He desires for us to be one with Him and one with the family of God. Part of that is being completely committed to Him, His plan and His will in our lives. As the early church was, there was a need…they met it! What a blessing to be a part of a body that is that way. Acts 4:32-37
Celebrating An Empty Grave
As we look at Luke 24:1-12 we see that the Father’s plan was to glorify Himself through the Son. Even in the cruel death of Jesus, the Father was glorified. In His resurrection, the Father was glorified. Now, even in our lives, we need to glorify the Father. The empty grave gives us victory over our sin and death! The promise of the ONE that came to save! He is…
