Pastor Gabriel Menchaca "To abide" simply refers to the moment-by-moment experience of walking in harmony (communion, fellowship) with the Holy Spirit; that is, without any "unresolved offenses" that are disrupting that harmony (communion, fellowship).

Mark 10:17-27 “Money is so intimately related to the possessor, that we cannot give money without giving ourselves.” If we are making Goals for ourselves; don't forget that especially when it comes to money. God is not asking for your money - he's asking for your worship. The greatest and most devastating part of what Jesus asked the rich young ruler, was to come and follow me.

Matthew 14:13-21 ESV The miraculous was done by Jesus but the ministry was done by the Disciples. There has to be a shift in your thinking. You're not a disciple when you just sit and receive, you're a disciple when ministry is given from His hands to yours. “We have only” is mindset that doesn't matter when Jesus is involved. He will multiply what we bring to Him. What Jesus multiplied the Disciples distributed. #nwlachurch #newwavela #church
Proverbs 3:3 Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. How do I establish my heart? I write it on my heart. I absorb what God loves and what God hates. I spiritually create a standard that distinguishes my desires from God's desires. I'm able to compare and contrast - I think this should be done - but I know this is what God desires and is pleased by. Proverbs 7:3 My son, keep my words and treasure up my commandments with you; 2 keep my commandments and live; keep my teaching as the apple of your eye; 3 bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart. If I asked you about sports, or if I asked you about something in the industry you work in you might have such a recall that it would blow me away by your knowledge; but as a Christian do you have God's word written on your heart? Psalm 119:10-12 With my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments! 11 I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. 12 Blessed are you, O Lord; teach me your statutes! “He who began a good work in you, will carry it through…” Philippians 1:6 Church Website | NWLAChurch.com Church Instagram | @NWLAChurch Facebook | @NWLAChurch Twitter | @urbanchurch

The Spirit of God will always encourage you to share the message of the Resurrection of Jesus, The Spirit of the World will always ask you to be quiet about. The Resurrection was the platform in which Christianity spread. To this day we preach not of just the death of Jesus but of the life that came despite death. Matthew 28:5-8 5 The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you.” 8 So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Matthew 28:11-15 11 While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12 When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, 13 telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.' 14 If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” 15 So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day. ----more---- “He who began a good work in you, will carry it through…” Philippians 1:6 Church Website | NWLAChurch.com Church Instagram | @NWLAChurch Facebook | @NWLAChurch Twitter | @urbanchurch

True Family wealth begins when God heals. Series main scripture: Matthew 6:21 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The wealth of a family is found in the Gospel of Jesus.

Pastor Gabriel Menchaca | AW Tozer: Unfortunately, many modern Christians have reduced Him to a single-attribute God. Never mind that the angels in God's presence do not cry out, day and night, “Love, love, love,” but “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty” Love is defined by God. Don't make the mistake of thinking learning about love and pursuing love is the single most important thing you can do as a Christian. God defines love. In heaven they cry out who he is and what he is and that is Holy. John 3:16 16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. ----more---- A new Church in the Los Angeles area.

Pastor Gabriel Menchaca January 1st, 2023 The question that can help us most identify what is first in our life is where do I spend my time when I have a choice to spend my time? Church is a choice. Prayer is a choice. Reading the Bible is a choice. Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Seeking the Kingdom first - begins and ends with your intake of Scripture and your time in prayer. “He who began a good work in you, will carry it through…” Philippians 1:6 Church Website | NWLAChurch.com Podcast | CarryUsThrough.co Church Instagram | @NWLAChurch Podcast Instagram | @CarryUsThroughCo Facebook | @NWLAChurch Twitter | @urbanchurch Host: Instagram | @GabrielMenchaca_ GabrielMenchaca.com
