Legacy Church is a church in the Kyle/Buda Texas area. We meet at Carpenter Hill Elementary on Sundays at 10:00am Central.
Mark 2:27-28 (NLT)—1) Sabbath isn't for God; it's for us. Sabbath restores the rhythm of work & rest to our lives that God intended. 2) Sabbath is a gift Sabbath isn't a religious burden or a punishment; it's meant to be a pleasure. 3) When you lead, serve, or work from rest, it enables you to truly put your heart & energy into everything God asks of you. W/out Rest isn't a sin; it's a responsibility. 4) Rest in God, not from Him. Matthew 11:28-30 (NLT) What fills your “tanks”? If you don't rest, God will rest you.
God's best is better than your best every single time. Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) 2Corinthians 6:14-15 (NKJV)nterests… Who you marry is the 2nd most important decision you will ever make. Proverbs 31:30, “Charm is deceitful & beauty is fading, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” 2Corinthians 6:17-7:1 (NKJV) If your convictions aren't firmly Rooted in honoring God & His word, you'll find yourself continually compromising. The formula for frustration—fabricated expectations + failed realities = feelings of frustration. God's lowest thought about you is higher than your greatest thought about yourself. Your purpose isn't for someday; God has a mission for you to do right now. 2 Corinthians 5:18 Acts 20:24
Who is disciplining your children? Who is raising them & investing into them spiritually? Greatness demands intentionality. Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV), “Train up a child in the way he should go, & when he is old he will not depart from it.” Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (NLT) The devil doesn't take a day off & we can't either. Great families demand intentionality. Great parenting demands intentionality. Great children demands intentionality.
Matthew 7:24-27 According to this scripture, what's your life & family built on—rock or sand? It won't happen by accident. choose to go beyond the discomfort & start deepening your roots. Romans 3:10-12, “There is no one who is righteous (apart from Jesus), no, not one.” Isaiah 64:6, “Our righteousness is like filthy rags.”
Marriage is the foundation of the family unit. What you did to win their heart is key to continuing to win their heart. Do you know your spouse's Love Language? “If you're going to be married, do what it takes to have a blast.” Success leaves clues. Make Jesus your 1st love. -Know & embrace your role Ephesians 5:32 (NLT) -Set yourself apart only for them. -Pray together -Love & honor on purpose. -Look your best for them. -Flirt with them. -Date them. -Make time for intimate oneness. 1 Corinthians 7:5 (NLT)

No Matter What God, just as firmly as our feet are planted on this floor, we are predetermining in this moment that NO MATTER WHAT, we are those who stay in faith! We walk in obedience to God. We pitch our tents in the Land of Hope and we refuse to relocate. We rest & trust in Your plans. We trust Your perfect timing. We are firmly Rooted in You and we will not be moved NO MATTER WHAT! You can't wait until you need to be rooted to get rooted. “it's all about the soil.” Matthew 13:1-8 John 15:1-8 Apart is a slippery, costly slope. The fruit of abiding in The Vine, is that we become more and more like Him.

Rooted In Trust Jeremiah 29:11 God's will is going to ultimately be done, but we have a part to play in it all. 1Corinthians 6:20 Just because God has a plan for your life, doesn't mean things are always going to go smoothly. Just because things aren't going the way you thought or they're not happening on your timetable doesn't mean God's plan isn't working. Your calling isn't to be “successful”, it's to be faithful. Philippians 1:6
Step Up & Step Out Ephesians 4:12-15 (NLT) Matthew 24:13, “He who endures to the end will be saved.” John 15:8, “By this, My Father is glorified—that you bear much fruit & prove to be My disciples.” No root=no fruit. The people in this community NEED Jesus. Are you ready & willing to step up & step out by faith into God's purpose for your life & ministry?
Christmas Eve - Immanuel Matthew 1:23 Matthew 28:20, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” 1) His “Withness” brings peace. 2) His “Withness” creates boldness. Romans 8:31 “If God is for you, who can be against you?”
How you end one thing will determine how you begin the next. Faith—trust, belief, conviction of the truth, holy fervor, confidence in who God is. Who or what is the focus of your faith? Romans 10:17, “Faith comes by hearing & hearing by the word of God.” Luke 17:5, “Lord, increase our faith.” Matthew 17:20 (NLT) Matthew 6:30—“And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today & gone tomorrow, won't He more surely care for you? You have so little faith.” Hebrews 4:2—“The Gospel was preached to us & them, but the word didn't profit/benefit them because they didn't mix it w/ faith.” Hebrews 11:6—"W/out faith it is impossible to please God…” 1John 5:4—“…this is the victory that overcomes the world—our faith.” Luke 18:8, “…When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth.” What is the greatest step of faith you have ever taken? James 2:18,20, 26, “Faith without works is dead.” What if you don't? What if you do?

Faith—trust, belief, conviction of the truth, holy fervor, the character of one who can be relied on. Faith is confidence in who God is Hebrews 11:1—"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for…” Habakkuk 2:4—“But the just (righteous) shall live by his faith.” Ephesians 2:8-9, “For by grace you have been are saved through faith…” Mark 11:22, “Have faith in God.” Because Jesus is who He says He is, don't you think we should pay attention to what He has to say about this? Mark 5:36, “Jesus overheard their conversation & said, ‘Don't be afraid; just believe.'” Ephesians 3:12—“…we have boldness & access w/ confidence through faith in Him.” Hebrews 10:22—"Let us draw near w/ a true heart in full assurance of faith…” 2Corinthians 5:7, “For we walk by faith & not by sight.” Galatians 2:16, We are “justified by faith in Jesus, not by works of the Law.” Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified w/ Christ…the life I live, I live by faith in the Son of God…” Galatians 3:26, “You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.” 1Peter 1:7—"…& your faith is far more precious to God than mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring you much praise & glory & honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.” 1Peter 1:9—"…receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.” Lisa Bevere—“If you think you have blown God's plan for your life, rest in this. You, my beautiful friend, are not that powerful.” We serve a God who specializes in the impossible! Don't give birth to an Ishmael!
Instant Obedience The person who fears God says, “How close can I get to God? & How far away from sin can I get,” not “How much sin can I get away with?” Psalm 55:19—“Because they do not change, therefore, they do not fear God.” Proverbs 1:7—"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” Proverbs 27:7—“A satisfied soul loathes the honeycomb, but to a hungry soul, every bitter thing is sweet”. The fear of the Lord is to obey God, even when you don't see the benefit of it. Complaining is saying, “God, I don't like what You're doing, & if I were You, I would do it differently.” Hebrews 11:24-26 Some religious people think suffering pleases God, but it's obedience that pleases Him. The cross doesn't speak of suffering; it speaks obedience. Genesis 22:1-18 Exodus 33:1-3 God's presence was more important to Moses than His promises. But to Israel, God's promises were more important than His presence. Practice instant obedience. Will you obey even if you don't see the benefit of it?
Out Of Egypt 2Corinthians 6:16-7:1 We were created to have a real, intimate relationship w/ the King of the Universe! Moses had to lead the people to the Promiser before he could lead them into the Promised Land. So many people don't fear the Lord because they haven't encountered Him. Exodus 19:3-6 The whole reason God brought them out of Egypt was to bring them to Himself. Isaiah 29:13—“They draw near to Me w/ their mouths, but their heart is far from Me.” Exodus 20:18-21 Mark 4:22— “There's nothing hidden that will not be brought into the light.” The person who fears God says, “How far away from sin can I get?” They wanted both God & Egypt—what they thought was the best of both worlds. Hebrews 11:24-26 1John 2:15-16 Will you choose to know the Promiser so you can experience your purpose—your Promised Land?
Preparing The Table Psalm 23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Jeremiah 29:11 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 2 Peter 1:3-5 3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. John 6:16-21 NIV Jesus Walks on the Water 16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, 17 where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them. 18 A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. 19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. 20 But he said to them, “It is I; don't be afraid.” 21 Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
The Lost Key Some people have gotten used to living stuck spiritually Psalm 89:6-7 You will never find God's lasting presence in a place that doesn't greatly fear Him Familiarity is one of the most dangerous things to a believer. You begin to count as a common thing what God calls holy. The greater the glory, the greater & swifter the judgment. Balancing the love & the fear of God will keep you from falling into ditches. 2Corinthians 7:1—"Let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh & spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”
Fearless Matthew 21:46, “They wanted to arrest Him, but they were afraid to try because the crowds considered Jesus to be a prophet.” Luke 19:47-48, They “were looking for a way to destroy Him, but they could not find a way to do it, because all the people were captivated by what they heard.” Isaiah 41:10, "Fear not, for I am with you…” 2Timothy 1:7, "For God has not given you a spirit of fear…” Psalm 23:4, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil…” Psalm 27:1, "The Lord is my light & my salvation, whom shall I fear?” Deuteronomy 31:8, "He will never leave you or forsake you. Do not be afraid or discouraged.” John 14:27, “Peace I leave w/ you. My peace I give to you… Your heart must not be troubled or fearful.” Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong & courageous; do not be afraid or dismayed for the Lord Your God is with you wherever you go.” Galatians 1:10—You can't be a people pleaser & a servant of Christ. Paul Chappell, “Fear of man is the enemy of the fear of the Lord. The fear of man pushes us to perform for man's approval rather than for God's directives.” Fearing people can lead you to deny Jesus. God's opinion of you (or anything else) makes man's opinion irrelevant. Isaiah 51:12, “I—yes I—am the One who comforts you. So why are you afraid of mere humans who wither like the grass & disappear?” Hebrews 13:6—"The Lord is my Helper; so I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” Psalm 56:4, “O God, I praise You. I trust in God so why should I be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” Proverbs 29:25 “Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but to trust the Lord means safety.” Matthew 10:28, “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear Him who can destroy both soul & body in hell.” 1) Turn off the “news” 2) Take God at His word 3) Learn to walk in the Spirit 4) As soon as you recognize it, confess & repent 5) Question your fear of man 6) Understand & grow in the fear of the Lord Oswald Chambers, “The remarkable thing about God is that when you fear God, you fear nothing else, whereas if you do not fear God, you fear everything else.”
counterfeit—an imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud. Should Christians celebrate Halloween? Let your stance & convictions be based on honoring & prioritizing the Lord in every way possible. 1John 4: 18, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love cast out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.” Why would you invite in, pay for, participate in, or pursue what Jesus came to cast out? Counterfeit fear doesn't draw us closer to Jesus.
Relativism Relativism—the philosophical position that all points of view are equally valid & that all truth is relative to the individual. 1. “All truth is relative.” If all truth is relative, then the statement “All truth is relative” would be absolutely true. 2. “There are no absolute truths.” The statement, “There are no absolute truths” is an absolute statement that's supposed to be true. Therefore, it's absolute truth; & “There are no absolute truths” is false. 3. “What is true for you is not true for me.” If what's true for me is that relativism is false, then is it true that relativism is false? 4. “That is your reality, not mine.” Is my reality really real or not? If it is, then my reality states that relativism is false. If my reality isn't true, then relativism isn't true either since it states that my reality is true. “We all perceive what we want” “We are only perceiving different aspects of the same reality” “No one can know anything for sure.” Among Christians, 54% identify God as the basis of truth. "We are seeing an untethered generation, young people completely adrift, with no foundation in God, biblical truth, or standards of morality—the very things that enabled generations before them to live well & flourish. Those who still recognize the truth of God & His standards have a responsibility to share these with the next generation. Or they will be lost to this next generation, & maybe to our nation forever." God's word has to be valued, read, taught, & lived out in our homes.
Vindicated— cleared from suspicion or accusation; upheld or justified by argument or evidence; shown or proven to be right, reasonable, or justified; cleared of blame or suspicion. Christianity isn't a blind, ignorant religion; it's a very intelligent faith. “For anyone to read the New Testament & not conclude that Jesus claimed to be divine, he would have to be as blind as a man standing outdoors on a clear day & say he can't see the sun.” Was Jesus a liar? Was He a lunatic? He must be Lord! John 20:31—“But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, & that by believing in Him you may have life.” Joshua 24:15, “Choose this day who you will serve.”

Vindicated | God's Word Ephesians 4:11-14 The Bible is absolutely supernatural & the more you dig into it, the more amazing it gets. Psalm 138:2 ,”For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.” 1) Is the Bible infallible? Can you trust it completely? 2) Is it inspired? 2 Timothy 3:16—“all Scripture is God-breathed.” 2 Peter 1:20-21—“No prophecy of Scripture came from the prophet's own understanding or from human initiative. No the prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit & they spoke from God.” 3) Aren't there contradictions in the Bible? 4) Aren't there “lost books” that should be a part of the Bible? 5) Hasn't the Bible been re-written so many times that we can't trust it anymore? It was written over a 1,600 yr. period It was written by over 40 different authors from every walk of life It was written in different places It was written on 3 continents It was written in 3 languages For 40 different men—most of whom had never met—to write 66 different books, in 3 languages, over a period of 1,600 years & have 1 harmonious thought is humanly impossible. What are you going to do with it?

Vindicated Vindicate—to clear from suspicion or accusation; to uphold or justify by argument or evidence; to show or prove to be right, reasonable, or justified; to clear of blame or suspicion. They've tried to make God in their image. It's ok to have doubts or to question some things you read in the Bible. Questions aren't wrong, but the way in which we question can be. 1Peter 3:15 (NIV)—“But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness & respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.” Romans 10:9-10 “These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.” (Matthew 15:8) We set the course; you set the pace. We have to speak the truth in love & we have to love people enough to share the truth with them.

Cutting the Rope is the way to cut the ribbon on the dreams God has given us. Closed doors are God's way of Cutting the Rope for us. Sometimes our Plan B is God's plan A. We are an Easter people living in a Good Friday world. Faith is taking the 1st step before God reveals the 2nd step. Hebrews 11:1, "Faith is confidence in what we hope for & the assurance of what we do not see.” So often, we live as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. You can't just imagine unborn tomorrows; you've got to get up every morning & move in the direction of that dream. Matthew 25:23, “Well done good & faithful servant!” If you want to Win the Day, you've got to live like it's the 1st day & the last day of your life. Whatever you don't do today, you're less likely to do tomorrow! Hebrews 3:15, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.” Action Steps: Pray & Dream w/ Jesus re: Your Unborn Tomorrows. -Choose a start date. You won't finish what you don't start.

Flying the kite is realizing that God is in the small things. So many times we want to do Big amazing things for God but that isn't our job. Our job is to concentrate ourselves to God. Then God does amazing things for us. It starts with the fourth habit fly the kite. It's doing little things like their big things. Go ahead and dream big, but start small. “If you aren't making little sacrifices right now, you aren't ready.” “If you are taking a little risk right now, you aren't ready.” Be faithful in the little things as though they are big things. Zechariah 4:10 Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel's hand.” The Israelites hadn't even broken ground on the temple yet. All they did was measured and God was already rejoicing! Our heavenly father celebrates the little steps of faith. Let's not despise what God is doing. Little by little, bad habits are broken. Little by little, good habits are built. Little by little, dreams become a reality. Small steps of faith move God's heart! The best way to Steward every moment and make each day into a masterpiece is to recognize each day as miraculous. Every day is an opportunity to go after your God-given calling and purpose. Kaizen A Japanese term meaning an uncompromising commitment to continuous improvement! If you do the little things like their big things, God will do big things like their little things. God is not looking for a perfect picture but rather a picture he can perfect. He is looking for willingness.

You may not be responsible for what happened, but you are response-able. Charles Spurgeon, “I have learned to Kiss the Wave that throws me against the Rock of Ages.” You can't move past the pain if you ignore it, hide it, or try to deny it. The circumstances you're asking God to change might be the very circumstances He's using to change you. Like physical wounds, if emotional wounds don't fully heal, they can become infected. Deuteronomy 29:29 Sometimes God delivers us from suffering, but more often than not, He delivers us through it. The way you release “scar tissue” is through forgiveness. Your miracle might be closer than you think! It's the little steps of obedience that often take the most faith!
If you want to change your life, start by changing your story. Flipping the script starts with your internal script. The stories we tell ourselves become self-fulfilling prophecies. Faith is connecting the dots between past-tense providence, present-tense circumstances, & future-tense provision. Our outlook on life is the byproduct of a few experiences. We need God to sanctify our memories as well as our imaginations. What are your signature stories? Numbers 11:4-6 If you don't like your storyline, God can change it. He can redeem the loss, recycle the mistakes, & rewrite the pain. You aren't defined by the things you've done wrong. You're defined by the things Jesus did right. What God says about you has to become your signature story. Your brave is someone else's breakthrough. Your hurt is someone else's healing. Your disappointment is someone else's deliverance.
Win The Day | Independence Day Have you had a spiritual Independence Day? God the Father has created us to be & live free. It's in us to want to live free Your circumstances don't have to be great or even good, in order for you to live free. Galatians 5:1, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1 (TPT), “At last we have freedom, for Christ has set us free! We must always cherish this truth & firmly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.” 2 Peter 1:3
Win The Day Thomas Carlyle, “Our grand business undoubtedly is, not to see what lies dimly in the distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.” Live in day-tight compartments. If yesterday is history & tomorrow is a mystery, Win the Day! What are your top-of-the-Empire-State-Building moments? Matthew 6:9-13 Most of us want God to provide more so we can trust Him less, but He loves us too much to do that. Can you do it for a day? The odds of success get greater as the time compartments get smaller. We would gain a lot more ground if we would focus on habits instead of goals & did so one day at a time.

Positioned Are you playing the right position? Are you playing your part? Are you even playing at all? 1Corinthians 12:12-19 God has you here on purpose & for a purpose. 2 Samuel 11:1 “Sin will take you further than you want to go, keep you there longer than you want to stay, & cost you more than you want to pay.” Luke 10:38-42 We need to let our service of Him come from the overflow of our experience in Him
Wake Up! Luke 11:17, “A kingdom divided can't stand.” Galatians 6:10, “Do good to everybody—especially the household of faith.” 2Timothy 3:1-5—"In the end times, perilous times will come…” Isaiah 5:20-21, “Woe to those who call evil, good, & good, evil…” 1Peter 5:8—Be alert, knowing the devil walks about like a roaring lion. Matthew 26:41 “Watch & pray so you won't enter into temptation…” 1 Thessalonians 5:6, “So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert & be clearheaded.” Colossians 4:2, “Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind & a thankful heart.” Ephesians 6:18, “Pray in the Spirit at all times & on every occasion. Stay alert & be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.” Luke 21:36, “Keep alert at all times. And pray that you might be strong enough to escape these coming horrors & stand before the Son of Man.” Mark 13:33, “And since you don't know when that time will come (when Jesus will return), be on guard. Stay alert!” Do you need to wake up? Acts 2:17, “In the last days, I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh…”
1 Corinthians 16:19-20—“You are not your own, you were bought at a price.” I may have a lead role in the narrative of my life, but it is God who is the main character. What God reveals He intends to heal. Taking over as the author, and “choosing our own adventure”, only leads to endings He never authored. His name is Author AND FINISHER. If we will hand Him the pen, He gets the final word. Our story is meant to be His autobiography. “For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Revelation 19:10 “I will not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.” Psalm 118:17 Not one page of my story will ever be wasted. “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.” Revelation 12:11 Pastor Steven Furtick says, “You need to start telling yourself your own story. Start there. And then never stop telling yourself your testimony. Sometimes there’s no more important testimony. Sometimes you need to walk your present self into your past & introduce it to the God who was in order to remind yourself of who He is and who He will be.”
Your story is valuable, needed, important, & powerful to somebody. “A man with an argument is never at the mercy of a man with an experience.” 1Peter 3:15, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope you have.” 1) Before—What was your life like before you placed your faith in Jesus? Jackie Hill Perry—“I think there’s a lot of fear in being honest about where God has brought us from. I think sometimes we could be comfortable with people seeing where we are now, not recognizing that there would be so much more fruitfulness if they understood how we got there.” 2) How—How did you come to Christ? 3) Since Final tips & pointers: Stick to the point Be specific Be honest Avoid “Christianse” If all else fails, brag on Jesus. We need to tell our stories
