Resurrection Life Church

The Holy Spirit of God has been misunderstood and misrepresented since the day of Pentecost.  When the people of the city heard the 120 in the upper room speaking in tongues and worship they supposed they were drunk.  Unfortunately it is not much different today.  The Holy Spirit was at the beginning of time as we know it.  He has been prominent though out the Old Testament.  But when He shows up in the New Testament, He shows up in power and might.  Because of that power the world was changed forever and the Church of Jesus Christ was born and continues to thrive in the midst of turmoil and chaos because of the Power of the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit is our provider.  He will always deliver unlike the enemy who never delivers on his promises.  The Holy Spirit will always provide whatever we need!

Our earthly fathers should be a representation of our heavenly father.  However, that is not always the case.  Why?  There are a thousand different answers.  If you and I are going to be the godly fathers that we should be then that means we have to go to our heavenly father and let Him father us, guide us, and love us so we in turn can be that to our children.  We need our Father God in order to be a godly father to our sons and daughters.

Life can get a little choppy at times.  Difficult to say the least.  The storms of life don't show up when it is convenient.  No, they are always in the most hard, difficult, and perilous times of our life.  However Jesus is always with us as His followers.  He might not be behaving as we think He should be He is with us none the less.  Jesus will not let your "boat" sink.  No, with Him it will "float".  He may not calm the storm He just might need to calm you in the midst of your storm.  Either way, He is in control.  Your job is to simply trust Him.

One word from God can change your world instantly. It can revolutionize your life. Set you on fire. Enable you to do things that have been beyond your grasp. One word from God can not only change your life but all those around you. God wants to speak to His people. The question is, do His people want to hear His voice?

Our lives as followers of Jesus Christ should be a witness of Life. The Life that He brings. The Life that He is. The words we speak should bring life. The life we live should bring life. How we do our jobs should bring life. Why? Because we are witness of that Life. The disciples saw first hand as eye witnesses to the Life that Jesus brought to people while He was on this earth. However, it was in the best interest of the entire world that Jesus should leave. Because then He could pass that Life on to us and we then begin giving that Life away, so, others can be witnesses of Life also.

At one time in history a cross represented cruelty, pain, sorrow, shame, and the worst of humanity.  The Romans wanted the cross to strike fear into people's heart.  It was easier to control the masses when horrific death scenes were on display.  It was during 4th century that the Cross became a symbol of hope and redemption rather than one of death.  Although the death that Jesus suffered on the Cross that day two thousand years ago was horrid and unimaginable, today all across the globe the Cross is beacon to all those who are in need of hope, restoration, and life.  Today there is a POWER in the Cross. No more inability to be the man or woman of God that He called us to be.

There are a lot of people giving out advice on how to live.  Podcast, videos, books, social media post and a host of other ways to communicating to people.  However, the apostle James had a lot to say about living and how we are to apply the wisdom that we gain from our relationship with God.  This week in part two Pastor Allen deals with the awe of God and the beginning of wisdom is the Fear of the Lord.

God did not create man to live alone.  We've all heard the point of Adam and Eve.  However, God also meant other people.  We need each other.  We were created to be together.  No man is an island.  As cliche' as it is it is nonetheless true.  Last week Pastor Pat Murray did an amazing job of talking about partnership.  This week Pastor Allen takes it a step further about the power in those relationships and how God uses them to empower us as His Church and we bring glory and honor to Him.

Unless God builds it, it will not last.  Yes, mankind has build structures that have lasted centuries but we are talking about a life.  Our hope and trust can't be in our own ability to sustain ourselves.  We can't do it without God.  How do we allow God to do the work in our life that will sustain us and out last us?  First and foremost we must pray.  Prayer is not a command but a privilege that we get when we submit ourselves to Jesus and make Him Lord of our life.  And second is fasting.  Fasting is not a welcomed activity in the American Church because it goes against all that our culture teaches.  Indulge, indulge, indulge.  God is telling us to fast and restrain ourselves for a period of time so that we can get direction from the divine contractor on our part in building a life that last and one that bring honor to Him.
