Our mission: To live as Jesus among the broken. Through word and deed, telling people about Jesus and teaching them to follow Him. 2 Corinthians 4:6; Genesis 1:3-5; John 1:1-5; John 8:12; Matthew 5:14-16; 1 John 2:7-11 • God has abundant grace in store for you today if you will simply position yourself to receive it. • The love of God is real, available, and powerful enough to set you free from whatever darkness entangles you. • Wrap your life up in Jesus that he might be your great deliverer, healer, and source of comfort and strength. • We forget that darkness is temporary. We forget that all we need to do is turn on the light. No matter how dark it may be, if we simply remember to flip the switch, or even light a candle, we can still become a beacon hope.
The power of "Thank You" is limitless. Matthew 15:32-38; John 11:41-44; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 "Thank you" helps us savor life and find beauty and truth. "Thank you" helps us discover our true nature, abilities and talents. Dr. Bob Emmons from U.C. Davis, has made a career of studying the scientific impact of gratitude. He studies have discovered: · Gratitude improves physical and mental health · Gratitude improves self-esteem · Gratitude enhances empathy & reduces negative emotions · Gratitude improves our quality of sleep · Gratitude makes people like us more · Gratitude strengthens our emotions · Gratitude leads to a positive attitude · Gratitude enables us to be much happier in life Rewire our go-to responses: •Gratitude Journal •Thank you notes •Thank you notes on social media •Gratitude walks •Gratitude gift box •Gratitude through giving •Gratitude jar – 30 days of gratitude Gratitude gives us the power to heal, to be energized, and to change lives. It is the spirit of Jesus.

We're glad you joined us. Enjoy the service. We are going through the gospels and taking a look at Jesus' life. We want to become more like Jesus. We want to draw from His source and His wisdom. Through Christ's ministry, his radical teachings caused even his followers to ask, "Who is this man?" This series examines these teachings and points out all the ways he challenged the norms of his time to bring new ideas about justice,, equality, and compassion for those who were often disregarded.
Exodus 33:12-23 ESV • There is no promised land without the presence of God. • All we can do is ask. But we must ask. Only in asking do we receive. • There is no barrier between you and God. 1. A Jesus follower likes to talk about him, but they do it in such a way that causes you to want to know more about him. 2. A Jesus follower embraces their enemy with love. 3. A Jesus follower is full of compassion for outsiders. (Mark 6:3, Matt 9:36, Mark 8:2) 4. A Jesus follower is the one who is quickest to show others mercy. 5. A Jesus follower when asked to describe what God is like, describes Jesus.
Exodus 31:1-2 We live in a Strange Land with a Strange Call. Bezalel was filled with God's Spirit The Spirit of God is intended for creatives, craftsmen, servant, entrepreneurs... EVERYONE. All of us create, and in doing so, show the world who God is. 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 Joel 2:28-29 Colossians 3:23-24 Find Partners - We are not meant to walk alone. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 The Spirit of Jesus that is in you will create the impossible. Mark 11:22-24

John 4:19-24 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.” “Woman,” Jesus replied, “believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” We are saved to worship God. All that Christ has done in the past and all that He is doing now leads to this one end. -A.W. Tozer True Worship is Spiritual (v.23-24) Spiritual Worship is From the Heart (v.23) “And the duty of singing praises to God seems to be appointed wholly to excite and express religious affections. No other reason can be assigned why we should express ourselves to God in verse rather than in prose, and do it with music, but only that such is our nature and frame that these things have a tendency to move our affections.” —Jonathan Edwards True Worship is Authentic (v.24) Authentic Worship is Biblical Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. -2 Timothy 2:15 (NIV) Authentic Worship is Honest These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain... Matthew 15:8–9a (NIV)

Jesus gave us a model of how to love one another: · He loves unconditionally (while we were still sinners Jesus died for us) · He loves sacrificially (He suffered for us, became sin for us, and died for us) · He forgives us all the way to eternity. · We are to love like Jesus. Unconditionally, sacrificially, and all the way to eternity. Let's look for ways to: · Love unconditionally (while we were still sinners Jesus died for us) · Love sacrificially (He suffered for us, became sin for us, and died for us) · Forgive all the way to eternity. · Love like Jesus.

**Matthew 4:18-22** Following Jesus is a personal decision of saying "yes" to His invitation. He will never force us; it is not a command. Following Jesus means humbly submitting our entire self to Him. We leave the old things of life behind when we recognize Jesus as Messiah and our Savior. When Jesus said 'follow me' it included knowing him and what He expects. We do this by reading his Word and applying it to our own life. We spend time daily talking and listening to Him. Following Jesus involves following His example.
Luke 5:15-16 "But now even more the report about him went abroad, and great crowds gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities. But he would withdraw to desolate places and pray." To live as Jesus among the broken. Through word and deed, telling people about Jesus and teaching them to follow Him. Do you have any idea how important your prayers are? · Your prayers are so important that God promises in Scripture that He will answer them. · Your prayers are so important that God says His house–His temple, His church building–shall be called a house of prayer. Matthew 21:13 · According to Daniel 10 and 11, your prayers are so important that they shake Heaven and earth. Your prayers move angels and displace demons. God keeps your prayers in Heaven. He stores them up, and they rise before Him as incense continually. The book of Revelation tells us so. Look at Revelation 5:8. "And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints." The twenty-four elders who are seated before God the Father are holding golden bowls full of your prayers and mine. We see this again in Revelation 8:3-4 "And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne, 4 and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel." Your prayers are so important that God actually keeps them, and they are offered up to Him over and over as a continual sacrifice. Have you ever thought your prayers weren't important? My friend, your prayers thunder in Heaven. Revelation 8:5 "Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth, and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake." · Your prayers are being stored in golden bowls in Heaven. · Your prayers transcend time and space. · Your prayers are ascending into the face of God as sweet incense. Your prayers matter.
**John 1:1-5 The Good of Family How does your heart tend to respond when you are required to submit to the authority of someone else? In what ways did you forget about the presence and plan of God this week, existing as if you were an autonomous and independent being? The Good of Absolute Truth How does your heart tend to respond when someone criticizes or aruges with your actions or views? In what ways did you compromise or minimize the truths of God's Word this week? The Good of Dependence How does your heart tend to respond when you can't accomplish something on your own, or when someone else proposes a more successful alternative to yours? Reflect on how your day-to-day existence is dependent on both God and other people. How can admitting weakness be a strength? THE KEY TRUTH: Jesus is the Greatest of All Time and He calls us to follow Him in doing good for others. (Matthew 22:34-40)
**Philippians 4:4-7** The first step in practicing peace is a little counter intuitive... Rejoice! Be glad, celebrate, take pleasure in the Lord! Not in the things of this world... though the Bible does say he gives us good things to richly enjoy, we need to remember that it is in the Lord that we need to celebrate! Be Glad! Anxiety: Experiencing worry, unease, or nervousness, typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome. 1 - "Every Situation" When you talk to Jesus about the small things, it becomes more natural to talk to him about the big things. 2 - "By prayer and petition" Prayer: simple requests of the Lord Petition: An earnest or urgent request (to God) 3 - "With Thanksgiving" Peace beyond what we can understand! His peace will guard our hearts AND our minds.

Read: Mark 12:28-31 The greatest commandment is to Love God with all our being; the second is to sacrificially love our neighbor. The Bible is full of commands from the Lord that we are unable to actually fulfill...by ourselves. The sooner we realize as a Christ Follower that we are unable to walk out the Christian life on our own, the better. The greatest need as a Christian is to receive from God the very resources we need to love, and live for, God. Jesus comes to live inside our hearts by the Holy Spirt...However what we need daily to be overcomers...is only found IN HIM. Overcoming sin: Power from the Holy Spirit to say "No." Walking through stress and anxiety: The joy of the Lord is our strength Being Selfless and Humble: Grace from Heaven to position oneself in a low position Fulfilling God's purpose every day: It is He who works in us to will and to do His good pleasure Title of the message this morning is Called to be With Him. What does it mean to be WITH him? Luke 10:38-39 Called to Sit with Jesus Luke 10:39b Proverbs 8:34 Called to Listen to Jesus Luke 10:39 Called to Talk to Jesus Luke 18:1 Called to Walk with Jesus Mark 3:14
Those that God used in the past were just ordinary people with an extraordinary Master. Read: Jeremiah 1:5, John 15:16 You Are An Ordinary Person, Capable Of Extraordinary Things. Moses, God's Deliverer, was a murderer and fugitive of the law (Exodus 4:10-12) David, the Great King of Israel was an adulterer and murderer (Acts 13:22, Psalm 51:1-2) Paul, the Apostle was a persecutor of Christians and the Church (Acts 8:1, 9:1-2) Gideon, a man with low self esteem (1 Samuel 16:7) Jeremiah, called the "weeping prophet" (Jeremiah 1:7-9) You were meant for more.

1- The incarnation shows us the perfection of God's love. 2- The incarnation shows us the perfection of Jesus' understanding of our hurt, our struggles and our temptations. 3- The incarnation provides a perfect sacrifice for our eternal freedom. Jesus did not deserve death but He died. We deserve punishment but receive forgiveness. Why are these stories in the Bible? Why did God leave us one tale after another of wounded lives being restored? So we could look back with amazement at what Jesus did? The purpose of these stories is not to tell us what Jesus did. The purpose is to tell us what Jesus does. He's not doing it just for them. He's doing it for me. He's doing it for you. I want to be free from my prison of negativity. The incarnation of Jesus is perfection. I want to strive for the perfection He displayed.

HE IS PEACE Even the Winds and Waves Obey Him “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.” (Psalm 46:1-5) HE IS POWERFUL “But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy, Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.” (Psalm 5:11) “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.'” (Psalm 91:1-2) JESUS IS IN YOUR BOAT “Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

PASTOR MATT RENEAU BIBLE REFERENCES Matthew 8:14-17 ESV 14 And when Jesus entered Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever. 15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and began to serve him. 16 That evening they brought to him many who were oppressed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: “He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.” Matthew 8:1-4 ESV 1 When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him. 2 And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” 3 And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a proof to them.” Matthew 11:4-5 NIV 4 Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: 5 The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor. NOTES The Will of the Healer Matthew 8:1-4 Faith in the Healer Matthew 8:5-13 • The healing of God is not to attract a crowd. The healing of God is to point crowds to God. • Not just a physical healing, but a holistic process. He cares more about our cleansing • The greatest question, “God, are you willing?" The Voice of the Healer says: I am willing The age old question, what if he doesn't heal? THERE IS A MYSTERY TO DIVINE HEALING. • Praying for Healing is not a formula • It's not self effort • It's God effort! It's in Jesus Name! Not my name! Not the name of a leader!

BIBLE REFERENCES Isaiah 54:13 (AMPC) And all your children shall be disciples [taught by the Lord and obedient to His will], and great shall be the peace and undisturbed composure of your children. Deuteronomy 6:5-7 (AMPC) And you shall love the Lord your God with all your [mind and] heart and with your entire being and with all your might. 6 And these words which I am commanding you this day shall be [first] in your [own] minds and hearts; [then] 7 You shall whet and sharpen them so as to make them penetrate, and teach and impress them diligently upon the [minds and] hearts of your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down and when you rise up. Isaiah 44:3-4 (AMPC) For I will pour water upon him who is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground. I will pour My Spirit upon your offspring, and My blessing upon your descendants. 4 And they shall spring up among the grass like willows or poplars by the watercourses. NOTES 1- Seek a Partnership with God. The best thing one can do for a child is to stay personally in tune with God's Spirit and wisdom. 2- Focus on the Big Picture – Don't be Discouraged by the Daily Challenges 3- Treat Your Child With Respect – Listen To Them Use Discipline to Teach, Not Punish Praise Good Behavior 4- Remember Who You Are.

BIBLE REFERENCES Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.” John 10:9-11 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. John 14:1-7 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. (ESV) This means that, contrary to man's perspective, the Lord is not late with his promise to return, as some measure lateness. But rather, his “delay” simply reveals his loving patience toward you, because he does not want any to perish but all to come to repentance. (TPT) Revelation 7:9-12 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” NOTES 1- The narrow way reveals the beauty of grace. 2- If God is for us, who can be against us? I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
