YTF – SAME GOD Yesterday Today Forever Week 1 Same God Our Posture Towards Jesus When we needed hope and joy – Jesus is our king, born in a stable, coming to be with us.When we needed salvation, Jesus is the Son of God on the cross, taking our sins. When we needed to overcome fear, even the fear of death, Jesus rises from the dead.When we needed to have a heavenly hope, Jesus presents himself, returning to the Heavens.

V2.023: End Game The Fear—Faith Era The year of divine discomfort. If you fear God, you won't fear the end. If we stand in the face of worldly fear without the fear of God, we are in the most treacherous of places. If you have faith in God, you won't have the desire to have faith in man-made solutions. The World has adopted a fear that has caused them to place their faith in themselves. Dread of the end or

MEN AND WOMEN OF FAITH… These men and women of faith forsook all of their hopes and dreams to chase after the promises of God When we choose to forsake

Joseph – An ordinary man. Who was this man?  *19-20 year old from Nazareth.  Joseph grew up being taught who God was.  He went to Hebrew School and had a Bar Mitzvah just like all the other boys.  He lived in a culture that taught him to know and believe God in every area of life.  Joseph's ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Noah, Moses, and Rahab did their job of passing down the promise. Malachi to Matthew Silence…. 400 years  Joseph

Rahab The last few weeks, we've been learning about faith and some of the people often described as “heroes of the faith” that are named in Hebrews 11. Hebrews 11:31 “It was by faith that Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed with the people in the city who refused to obey God. For she had given a friendly welcome to the spies.” Joshua 2 & 6 Who was Rahab? Rahab's story is probably the most relevant for today's time than

NOAH KNOWING  Genesis 6:5-8 NKJV  Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So, the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of

“In time, Joseph and all of his brothers died, ending that entire generation. But their descendants, the Israelites, had many children and grandchildren. In fact, they multiplied so greatly that they became extremely powerful and filled the land.”‭‭Exodus‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NLT‬‬ ”By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king's command. Hebrews 11:23 *”By faith Moses, when he was born, was

Photographs of Faith The story of Joseph Gen. 37,39-50 I Wonder if Abraham ever thought about the journey his descendants would have go go on to finally see the promise come to pass? Faith is not about seeing the provision but holding onto the promise.  Joseph would not see the promise in his lifetime, but played a major part in making sure that promise would come to pass.  Make no mistake about it, Joseph had to have Great faith to

PHOTOGRAPHS OF FAITH 2 ABRAHAM You have no idea what God may produce through a single seed planted in faith. The settling of our expectations is the limitation of our faith. Maybe you believed in God's blessings at one time, but along the way, your disappointment has driven you to make your own plans. Our God is not in the business of consolation prizes. Abraham, the artist formerly known as Abram, labored through his dream. Genesis 12 – The great

Photographs of Faith 1 The Construct of Faith What Faith Is Not 1. Faith is not just a religious feeling. Trusting our entire eternal existence in how we feel is confusing and dangerous. Proverbs 28:26 (NLT) Those who trust their own insight are foolish, but anyone who walks in wisdom is safe. 2. Faith is not blind. It is not accepting something without evidence. Acts 17:10-12 (NLT) That very night the believers sent Paul and Silas to Berea. When they

CHEMISTRY OF A CHRISTIAN 10 The Construct of Intentionality  THE RACE SET BEFORE US  Hebrews 12:1-2 (ESV) Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame,

Chemistry of Christian 9 The Oath THE FLESH THAT BLINDS AND THE SPIRIT OF LIGHT Romans 8:5-9 (TPT) Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. But those who live by the impulses of the Holy Spirit are motivated to pursue spiritual realities. For the sense and reason of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace. In fact, the mind-set focused on the flesh fights God's plan and

We carry the only message of real truth in the world. 1 Timothy 3:15 But if I'm delayed in coming, you'll already have these instructions on how to conduct the affairs of the church of the living God, his very household and the supporting pillar and firm foundation of the truth.

The truth and holiness of the Father found Adams' intent faulty. Just as Adam's sin created unrighteousness, Jesus's true and holy intent produces righteousness for all mankind… Romans 5:12 (NLT) When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam's sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone

WHERE WERE WE?  The Holy Spirit brings us into a relationship with the Word and therefore the Father. The Father initiates our identity, restores it through Christ, and brings the expression of its through the Holy Spirit. Making us in His image before the revelation of identity and relationship is the highest expression of GRACE. Through the Holy Spirit, God

Christianity has created a community that attempts to overcome by being combative and defensive as the first response. But we were designed to be image bearers and promote the elements of God's character. It is those elements that change circumstances, release us from bondage, heal the sick, transform and give us freedom. We combat addiction instead of embracing purpose. We fight

EXPLOSIVE PRACTICALITY 3 “IT IS FINISHED!” Later, knowing that all was now completed, and so that the Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, ‘I am thirsty.' A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus' lips.   When He had received the drink, Jesus said, ‘It is finished.' With that, He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. John

The Kingdom Fight – The Line in The Sand Psalm 2:1-12 TPT How dare the nations plan a rebellion. Their foolish plots are futile! Look at how the power brokers of the world rise up to hold their summit as the rulers scheme and confer together against Yahweh and his Anointed King, saying: “Let's come together and break away from the Creator. Once and for all let's cast off these controlling chains of God and his Christ!” Humanity choosing for

Mankind brings hell on earth by rejecting God's kingdom and building their own.  Jesus came to restore humanity and announce that His Kingdom has come!
