Expectant Living in Uncertain Times
The Blessing & Cost of Becoming a Devoted Follower of Christ
When things are starting to fall apart
Can you hear the Holy Spirit? You are expected to hear the Holy Spirit.
Coming to Christ is more than a ticket to heaven. It is a calling to a life and eternity of purpose. Jesus rose from the dead and gave gifts to His followers. Hear Pastor's message about your calling and how to protect it from the discouragement of darkness.
Satan hates for believers to use the name of Jesus. 1. His Lordship - Jesus is Lord. Absolute Power 2. His Finality - Jesus will have the final word 3. Exclusivity - Acts 4:12 4. Character - perfect 5. Authenticity
Before your faith can grow and be activated you need to be healed in your soul, so you can get the garbage off of your faith!!
There comes a time when you need to have a revelation moment and internalize that God really loves you! It’s more than a general religious statement. It even moves beyond the faith level and becomes intimate and life changing. When we know that God loves us our love is multiplied!
When God is in the equation—things get multiplied. Expectations are surpassed! Jesus multiplied five loaves of bread and two fish feeding five thousand men plus women and children. We live in a time when resources are often insufficient to meet the need. We need to be spiritually multiplied. God told Abraham, “I will bless you and multiply you.” Join us for this sermon series as we explore what the Word says about how to be multiplied. God can multiply your resources, faith, strength, peace, and anointing. Come be multiplied!
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; (2 Corinthians 4:6-9 ESV)
You cannot separate Jesus and His Word. They are linked inseparably together. Jesus has power and His Word has power!

What does it take to move forward? 1. It's too soon to give up & quit 2. Perseverance 3. Don't loose your spiritual footing 4. Don't forget moments of inspiration 5. Write down the things in your life that are troubling you. 6. Ask God to give you a plan, a strategy, a Word.

Moving Beyond Discontentment - We all live in a tent, either “contentment or discontentment”.
The Daring Direction - Mission The High Calling
Partnership - The Game Changer.
We are better together because God deigned the kingdom to work through a community of faith.
After salvation God has promised to give us more. The Holy Spirit will empower the children of God to do things for Christ they could not do in themselves. He gives us power to overcome the "stage fright" of life.
We are called to live in grace, walk in grace, grow in grace, and speak in grace.
Moving the Heart of God. God can't speak to you if your don't pray.
God is a God of healing and recovery. He restores and beyond to blessing. His heart is for you. He treasures you because you are of great value to Him.
God is the heavy weight champion of the universe. He has all resources, wealth and power in His control. Knowing The Most High God will change your courage, hope and boldness.

God is Peace, Yahweh Shalom, is a dynamic revealed name. This message explores the implications of knowing Yahweh Shalom and how He helps us overcome worry and stress. Psalm 9:10 (ESV) — And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
