What motivates you? Solomon - the wisest man to live, besides Jesus - went after pleasure and had everything that he could ever want - from wives to money and accomplishments - but he ultimately called it all meaningless. In this message Pastor Duane will help you recognize if you are motivated by worldly pursuits rather than in a relationship with God, and if so, how to reverse those actions.
Teaching Pastor, Josh Goodman, continues the series talking about how we shouldn't focus on the temporal things of this earth but be focused on eternity and the promises of heaven just as Jesus did.
We all face a gravitational pull to things that don't matter. Pastor Ryan frames up a message to help us begin to live being motivated by eternity in everything we do. You will never miss what you invest in eternity.
ETERNITYDriven By EternityEcclesiastes 3:11 God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart."What we do in life echoes in eternity” - Maximus (Gladiator)1. The Judgement Seat of Christ2 Corinthians 5:9-10 Therefore, whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to be pleasing to him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each may be repaid for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. (CSB)Picture: Bema Because of Jesus Christ, we will not be judged for our sins because they have already been paid for on the cross.John 5:24 Truly I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life. (CSB)Romans 8:1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. (CSB) We are NOT saved by works, but we are saved FOR works.Ephesians 2:8-10 For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God's gift— not from works, so that no one can boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do. (CSB)Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. (CSB) The Judgement seat of Christ will be a place of Revelation.2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ…(CSB) The Judgement seat of Christ will be a place of Rewards.2 Corinthians 5:10 …so that each may be repaid for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. (CSB)1 Corinthians 3:11-15 For no one can lay any foundation other than what has been laid down. That foundation is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw, each one's work will become obvious. For the day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire; the fire will test the quality of each one's work. If anyone's work that he has built survives, he will receive a reward. If anyone's work is burned up, he will experience loss, but he himself will be saved—but only as through fire. (CSB) TimeEphesians 5:16 …making the most of the time, because the days are evil. (CSB) TalentsColossians 3:23-24 Whatever you do, do it from the heart, as something done for the Lord and not for people, knowing that you will receive the reward of an inheritance from the Lord. You serve the Lord Christ. (CSB) Treasure1 Timothy 6:17-19 Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be arrogant or to set their hope on the uncertainty of wealth, but on God, who richly provides us with all things to enjoy. Instruct them to do what is good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and willing to share, storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of what is truly life. (CSB)“Only one life,'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last.” - C.T. Studd2. The Great White Throne JudgementRevelation 20:11-13,15 Then I saw a great white throne and one seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from his presence, and no place was found for them. I also saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life, and the dead were judged according to their works by what was written in the books…. And anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. (CSB)

Legacy 2020 - Week 1 - Driven By Eternity - Pastor Aaron Burke by @weareradiant
"One day you will stand before God and give an account of your life. The most important question you can ask yourself now is, will you be ready?

In this 12 part sermon series, we look at the best-selling author, John Bevere's approach to eternity.

We are to be driven by eternity in our hearts. This is where our legacy begins.
This morning, as Pastor Brad teaches us about The Power Of Partnership, we finish the Driven By Eternity series. Pastor's Notes: TEXTPhilippians 4:10-19 NKJV10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your[a] care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity.11 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: 12 I know how to [b]be abased, and I know how to [c]abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through [d]Christ who strengthens me.14 Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my distress. 15 Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. 16 For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your account. 18 Indeed I [e]have all and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. 19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. INTRODUCTIONGood morning, everybody!I’m super excited to be here with morning. Thanks to everyone who has continued to keep my family in your prayers during this difficult time.It is with great joy that we’re anticipating our upcoming FIRE Conference with Christopher Alam. As we have shared before, please invite your lost loved ones and those you know who are ill and need a touch from the Lord. It starts THIS Friday night at 7 pm. We hope you will be here.Today, I will be finishing this series with a message entitled “The Power Of Partnership”.ILLUSTRATION Many of you are familiar with start up businesses. If you look around you, everything had a beginning. Starbucks, Wal Mart, Apple, Samsung, Chevrolet, etc.The one thing that shares a commonality among all of these is stock. Most companies today that are thriving have astronomical stock prices.If you would have bought into Apple and Wal Mart in the 80’s and Amazon in the late 90’s, you would be a millionaire by now. Today, a single stock comes at a hefty price.However, the thing about stock is that buying stock is investing in a product. In essence, you are getting ownership into the company.When the company wins, every shareholder wins. When the company goes broke, well, everyone goes broke. TRANSITIONThe great think about the Kingdom of God is it isn’t like that. It isn’t going broke, nor will it ever!Yet, when we give into the kingdom, it’s like investing stock into a booming company.Now, before you get all sideways with me, I’m not trying to tell you that you give to get rich. That is totally the wrong motive for doing anything.We give out of an obedience to God and His word. We also give because of our love for His work!What we do for eternity is literally the only thing that will last for eternity.Yet, just like a stock can pay out, our dividend is souls yes, but also many other blessings! God blesses those who bless the kingdom.BACKGROUNDIn our text, the Apostle Paul is writing to the church at Philippi.According to history, the Apostle Paul founded the church on his second missionary journey.He actually wrote this letter to thank this church for partnering with his ministry.It’s been told throughout the years that a church will often take on the personality of it’s leader. Here, it’s apparent that Paul imparted a missionary spirit and a heart of generosity into his people.Praise God!There’s a blessing that comes when people catch a heart for the work of God.Let’s look at our text APPLICATION1. It keeps giving (vs. 10)- I want you to notice that Paul said it “flourished again”.- This implies that their giving had continued to be a blessing.- It likely not only continued to help him spiritually, but I’m sure it helped him emotionally. It helps people to know that others are “with them”.- When we give to missions, we are “a part of the team”.- It’s a great thing to know people love you and are supporting you.2. It’s a Blessing (vs. 14)- Notice that the words, “shared in my distress”.- Literally, they lifted a burden.- Week after week, month after month, I get requests from missionaries. I wish I could say yes to all of them. The number one thing they have need of is not only prayer, but resources.- There are projects that need completed and people that need to be reached.- Sure, the Gospel is free. Plane tickets, Bibles, vehicles, etc. are not. 3. It’s Partnership (vs. 15-17)- The biggest thing I wish I could communicate with people is that when we are giving to ministry, we aren’t giving it people. Yes, it goes into the hands of people, but it goes into the hands of God.- It’s not just giving. That’s what the church has taught all these years. Notice Paul said giving AND receiving,- They sent consistent aid to Paul.- He told them it was going into their account. Did you know that you have a heavenly account? How do you put stuff in it? Giving!- An account is meant to put stuff in AND to take stuff out.- Your blessing account gets full when you’re a giver and generous towards the work of God. 4. It’s Sacrifice (vs. 18)- I’m not sure how much they gave, but Paul recognized it as a sacrifice.- You only sacrifice when something is valuable. If you’re putting $2 in the missions offering but paying $100 on a cell phone, thats not sacrifice. Oh come on, somebody!- I’m not trying to beat you up. I’m trying to let you know that God blesses us when we truly are generous. Notice was Paul said in 2 Corinthians 9:6 “But this I say, He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. “- Notice there are only two levels of giving with God: Sparingly or bountifully. Or as a I like to say it, stingy or generous.- Don’t be mistaken. The amount doesn’t determine which one that is, but rather proportion and attitude. 5. It’s Security (vs. 19)- Notice Paul starts off the verse with “and”. That means it’s connected.- This is a verse that is often taken as a promise isolated and out of it’s context.- However, the promise of God “supplying all your need according to His riches in glory....” is directly connected to missions giving.- Point blank? When you take care of God’s business, you don’t have to fret and worry. People are all financially messed up when they put themselves first, and then maybe if anything is left, they might give a little to God.- No! I’m challenging each of us to be generous when it comes to giving, but especially to missions!Why? CONCLUSIONBecause we are driven by eternity! Souls Souls Souls!We have to pray, we have to go, and we have to give!
This morning we continue our series with a self titled message called Driven By Eternity. Pastors Notes: TEXT2 Corinthians 5:1-11 NKJV For we know that if our earthly [a]house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our [b]habitation which is from heaven, 3 if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked. 4 For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. 5 Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as [c]a guarantee.6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.9 Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. 11 Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.INTRODUCTION Good morning, everyone! We’re so very glad that all of you are here today! If you missed last week, I preached a passionate message entitled “People Of The Spirit”. I shared with you the history of our church and movement, and endeavored to show you we have a long history of passionately proclaiming the Gospel. Today, I want to talk with you from the title of our series, “Driven By Eternity”. ILLUSTRATION To full understand the concept of a people being “Driven By Eternity”, I feel like we need to understand the definition as a whole. Look at what Websters Online says:1. operated, moved, or controlled by a specified person or source of power."a chauffeur-driven limousine"motivated or determined by a specified factor or feeling."a market-driven response to customer needs"2. (of a person) relentlessly compelled by the need to accomplish a goal; very hard-working and ambitious.Both of these words describe what it means to be driven. To have a drive toward something means to be passionate about something. TRANSITION I’d submit to you this morning that we need to have a passion for souls!At the end of the day, all that really matters is reaching people for Jesus Christ. It needs to drive us when we get up in the morning. It should drive us when we are about our day. It should consume our thoughts upon our laying down. BACKGROUNDThis very thing is precisely what Paul gave his life for. After his conversion, Paul tried to right some wrongs that he had done in his previously life. That’s why he made the statement in Romans 1:14 NKJV “I am a debtor…..”In this particular passage, he is showing us that urgency in which we should share the good news. Look with me and let’s study this together. APPLICATION The Frailty of Life (vs. 1-3)- In the context of this verse, Paul calls this earthy body a “tent”.- A tent is a temporary structure that usually doesn’t have the appearance of something glorious. - That’s the way our bodies are. They are meant to be temporal. - It truly gives us the reality that death is imminent. 2. The Anticipation of Eternity (vs. 4-8)- The book of Ecclesiastes says that God has placed eternity in our hearts. - Some may deny it, but I truly believe we long for eternity!- Paul writes and says “God has prepared us for this.”- As believers for sure, this world is not our home. We are longing for Heaven!- Whether we like it or not, we are leaving!3. Certainty of Judgment (vs. 9-11)- As a believer, we have an appearance to make!- Where? It will be before the judgement seat of Christ!- This my dear friends is why we persuade men!- We must be driven by an eternity focus!CONCLUSION In light of this, how does that make you feel like? I’m telling you that we must get busy doing the Master’s work!In the words of the late Leonard Ravenhill, “Are the things you’re living for worth Christ dying for?”
This morning Pastor Brad starts a new series he calls Driven By Eternity with a sermon titled People Of Spirit. Pastor's Notes: TEXTMark 16:14-20 NKJV14 Later He appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen. 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who [a]believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they[b] will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.INTRODUCTIONGood morning, everybody!I’m so glad each and every one of you are here. This morning, we are going to start a brand new sermon series entitled “Driven By Eternity”.Over the next three weeks, we’ll be looking at the mission of the church and what we are called to. Last week, I preached about the necessity of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Today, I want to preach to you about “ People of The Spirit. BACKGROUNDIn our text, we see Jesus have a conversation with His disciples about the work they were to do. He accompanied that with soul willing, along with accompanying signs of supernatural power such as healing, deliverance, tongues, and casting out demons. All of these were to follow after the Holy Spirit would be poured out, which is what we learned about last week. Yet, verse 20 is what I wanted to lock in on. It says:“And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the Word through the accompanying signs. Amen”. These people went out and preached the Gospel, believed God, and saw the world turned upside down. The Book of Acts is actually a historical record of the formation and mission of the church.In Acts, you see this brand new church that was formed in Jerusalem. They had received the power of the Holy Spirit.They received opposition and persecution, but with God’s help, they pressed forward. Souls were being saved, disciples were being baptized, and corrupted culture was being challenged. (We should still be doing this today!). Acts records the very missionary journeys that the early Apostles did, spreading the Gospel to all of the known world at that time. TRANSITION Yet my friend, you and I have the same responsibility and are a part of the same mission: To share Jesus Christ and to warn people about eternity. That’s what is truly great about our church. Let me take you on a journey. APPLICATION Our Past- Let’s look at our past. - Denomination believers heard about a prayer meeting in California. - Many went there and received the Baptism of the Spirit. - In this revival, people were awakened to eternity and the soon coming of Jesus. - Out of this revival formed many groups, but most notable is the one you’re a part of right now. In 1914, a group assembled in Hot Springs Arkansas to establish was we know is the Assemblies of God. - From there, a doctrinal statement was formed and a passion for missions. - Missionaries were sent all around the world with many going on faith, packing their belonging in coffins to be shipped overseas with no expectation of returning. - Churches all over the USA were planted through revivals, prayer meetings, and brush arbor services. - Such is how our church was started. In 1922, Gordon and Glen Miller came to Woodward to start a new work. In 1924, Woodward First Assembly of God was started. - Throughout the years, many pastors have served, many leaders have came out of our church such as pastors and missionaries, and many people have been saved, healed, and filled with the Holy Spirit. - Yet, He isn’t done. Our Present- Dear friends, God is doing something TODAY!- Times have progressed. Methodist have updated. Scenery has changed. Yet, our mission is the same: SOULS- Today, souls are being saved.- Today, people are being healed. - Today, marriages are being restored. - Today, the Holy Spirit is still filling people. - Today, we are still sending missionaries!- The mission is still the same: To exalt Jesus and to preach this full gospel message across the land!- Fun Fact: Did you know that our church sends out roughly $4,000 per month in missionary support to 42 different missionaries and missions outreaches? That's why we ask you to give. That’s why we need you to sacrifice!Our Future- While we honor the past, we live in the present. Yet while we live in the present, we plan for the future. - We will see more people saved.- More people healed. - We will raise up more leaders.- We will support more missionaries. CONCLUSION
