Matthew 14:26-33 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It's a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid.” “Lord, if it's you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”Philippians 4:11-13 …for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.Mark 2:1-5 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”

FEAR & SCARCITY

3 LIES WE TELL OURSELVES ABOUT MONEY

In a world bombarded by societal pressures and cultural norms, it's essential to recognize the three profound lies culture often tells about money. As we delve into this enlightening journey, we are reminded of John 8:12, where Jesus proclaimed himself as the "light of the world," guiding us out of darkness and into the light of life. The first deception, "Your Money Equals Your Success," is debunked with the wise words of Luke 12:15, warning against the allure of possessions. We explore stories of Judas, Lazarus, the Rich Man, and Cornelius, all reflecting the significance of godliness and contentment. The second fallacy, "You Don't Need Anyone Else," finds its counterpoint in the parable of the Rich Fool from Luke 12:16-21 and the cautionary verse from Isaiah 5:8. Nebuchadnezzar's story serves as a vivid example. Lastly, the notion that "You Only Get One Life" is confronted with the biblical wisdom found in Proverbs 13:22 and Deuteronomy 30:19. Join us in exposing these cultural falsehoods and seeking the true light of financial wisdom.

Miracles, as described in the Bible, are profound manifestations of divine power and grace. To invite these supernatural occurrences into your life, you must first anchor yourself in unwavering faith, as the Bible tells us in Matthew 17:20: "Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Let this scripture remind you that faith, no matter how small, can move mountains.Here are four types of miracles and expect God to lead you through these life changing miracles. This week's message is all bout miracle. You can watch or listen from podcast to understand the road map to your miracles. Healing Wonders (curing of physical impairments and illnesses)Defeating Darkness (casting out demons and unclean spirits)Miraculous Nature (calming storms, feeding multitudes.)Reviving Lives (raising the dead, restoring to life)

Being insecure refers to a state of feeling uncertain, anxious, or self-doubting about oneself or one's abilities. It is a common human experience and can manifest in various forms, such as social insecurity, physical insecurity, emotional insecurity, and intellectual insecurity.People who are insecure may struggle with low self-esteem, self-worth, and confidence. They may constantly compare themselves to others, fear rejection or failure, and seek validation and approval from others. Insecurity can also lead to negative thought patterns, such as pessimism, self-criticism, and self-doubt, which can further fuel feelings of insecurity.Insecurity can have various causes, such as past experiences of rejection or trauma, negative messages from parents or peers, cultural and societal standards of beauty or success, and personal beliefs and values.Dealing with insecurity can be a challenging process, but it is possible to overcome. In this message, Pastor Philip unpacked few practical steps to overcome the insecurity.

Matthew 15:1-3 Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!”Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? Matthew 15:10-20 Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. What goes into someone's mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.” Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?” He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots. Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” Peter said, “Explain the parable to us.” “Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them. “Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person's mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
