Dad Tired - ReCreate Church, Sunday Service, July 15, 2025 Overflowing, Part 3: Dad Tired ReCreate Church | Pastor Michael Shockley | Father's Day ---------- EPISODE SUMMARY Feeling like your battery is constantly drained? Whether you're a dad, mom, student, or caregiver, we all know what it's like to run on empty. In this hilarious and encouraging Father's Day message, Pastor Michael explores the reality of being "Dad Tired" and discovers the secret to renewed energy through the powerful promise of Isaiah 40:30-31. From the dangers of "The Dad Chair" to the inspiring story of the prophet Elijah's burnout and recovery, you'll learn that true energy doesn't come from better sleep schedules or energy drinks—it comes from connecting with God's purpose for your life. Core Message: If you need energy, find purpose. ---------- KEY TOPICS COVERED The Reality of Dad Tired - Different levels of exhaustion: dog tired, dead tired, Dad tired - The power of "The Dad Chair" and unexpected naps - How responsibilities drain our batteries - The surprising ways kids can recharge us When Even the Strong Get Weary (Isaiah 40:30-31) - Why even young, athletic people run out of energy - The danger of exhaustion vs. evil - How victory can be as draining as defeat - Elijah's burnout after his greatest triumph The Meaning of "Waiting on the Lord" - The Hebrew word "qavah" - to bind or twist together - Moving from passive waiting to active connection - Weaving our weakness with God's strength - Binding our purposelessness to His purpose Elijah's Journey from Burnout to Purpose - Running away and wanting to die - The importance of rest, nutrition, and self-care - God's assignment: finding purpose in anointing kings - Discovering he wasn't alone - 7,000 faithful remain - Training the next generation with Elisha The Promise of Renewed Strength - Mount up with wings like eagles - Run and not be weary - Walk and not faint - Living on resurrection power, not battery power ---------- MEMORABLE QUOTES "One of the most dangerous pressures we face isn't evil, it's exhaustion." "To wait upon The Lord means to bind yourself to His Purpose. Nothing will energize you like the purpose of God for your life." "If you live disconnected from God, you are a single, fragile strand that will snap under pressure." "Energy flows from purpose." ---------- BIBLICAL FOUNDATION - Primary Text: Isaiah 40:30-31 - Supporting Story: Elijah's burnout and restoration (1 Kings 19) - Key Hebrew Word: Qavah (H6960) - to wait, bind together, twist into rope - Historical Context: Isaiah's shift from judgment to comfort and hope ---------- PRACTICAL APPLICATION For Physical Energy: - Prioritize rest, nutrition, and self-care ("snack and a nap") - Maintain healthy sleep schedules and exercise - Recognize the biblical importance of basic needs For Spiritual Energy: - Connect daily with Jesus through prayer and Scripture - Remember your identity as God's beloved child - Bind your life to God's purposes through obedience - Move from passive waiting to active connection with God For Parents Specifically: - Find recharging moments in connecting with your children - Remember that your greatest purpose is following Jesus - Express that purpose through loving and teaching your kids - Your identity isn't "Good Dad" or "Bad Dad" but "Beloved child of God" For Everyone Running on Empty: - Stop trying to manufacture energy on your own - Plug into resurrection power instead of battery power - Weave your small story into God's great story - Trust that Jesus emptied Himself so you could be filled ---------- THE GOSPEL CONNECTION Jesus didn't just come to forgive sin but to give abundant life.

Daily Voice Devotional with Niyi AdekunleThursday, 12th June Prayer 12In Jesus' model prayer to His disciples, five key elements are highlighted: the Person of God, His Purpose, His Provision, His Pardon, and His Protection. Today, we focus on God's pardon—His forgiveness.Forgiveness is essential in the place of prayer. When Jesus prayed, He spoke to with a Person He had a personal love relationship with, He addressed Himas “Our Father.” This relationship, however, can be strained by sin. Just as no meaningful relationship can thrive without forgiveness, our walk with God depends on our willingness to receive and extend pardon.Luke 11:4 (TPT),"Forgive our sins as we ourselves release forgiveness to those who have wronged us."KJV says: “And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us.”We must forgive because we have first received forgiveness from God. Our relationship with God happens on two platforms. • Vertical (between us and God)• Horizontal (between us and others)Human relationships many times come with offense, so learning to forgive is non-negotiable. If God, Who is perfect, forgives us, we must also forgive others. Holding on to bitterness or resentment creates a barrier in our prayer life. Jesus even said if you're offering a gift at the altar and remember a conflict, you should settle it first. (Matt.5:23-24)We cannot maintain a healthy relationship with God while holding unforgiveness toward people. Unresolved bitterness disrupts our spiritual connection. Releasing others is not just about peace with them; it's about power in prayer.To pray effectively, we must forgive sincerely. Forgiveness frees us, heals relationships, and allows God's grace to flow freely. It elevates our prayer life and strengthens our spiritual walk. Is there someone you need to forgive today? Release them in prayer. As you walk in forgiveness, your relationship with will God deepen, and your prayers gain new power and clarity.God bless you, enjoy your day.

We Abide in His Purpose

In this episode, Pastor Andy talks about Groundhog Day and references the movie starring Bill Murray. He discusses the idea of replacing the groundhog with a cake reveal, yet the focus shifts to finding hope through Jesus rather than a groundhog. Andy reflects on the tough month of January and the challenges of personal growth and improvement. He shares uplifting words from the book of Ephesians about God's power, purpose, and provision. Andy further discusses the trials of life and how they are opportunities for God to work for good, citing Romans 8:28 as a key verse. He emphasizes the importance of knowing God's love and purpose, and how suffering and hardship can bring about greater good. The talk concludes with an encouragement to trust God's active role and work in our lives, especially through challenging times. Additionally, the pastor announces some church group activities and events for February.   01:07 Reflecting on January 02:39 Finding Hope in Ephesians 04:00 Exploring the Book of Romans 05:01 An Oasis in Scripture 12:26 God's Promise in All Things 18:46 God's Active Role in Our Lives 20:40 Trusting God's Goodness 29:49 Called According to His Purpose 33:33 Community Announcements and Events

It ALL Works Together for the Good of Those That Love The LORD and Are the Called for HIS Purpose

This is message 7 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 6:1-10 Isaiah's vision of the Lord high and lifted up reveals God's unmatched holiness, providing a clear view of Himself, His people, and His purposes. The clearer Isaiah saw the Lord, the clearer he saw himself as he truly was—unworthy and in need of cleansing. This clarity also revealed the work God had for him, leading to his surrender and willingness to serve: “Here am I. Send me!” A vision of God's holiness brings conviction, aligns lives with His will, and equips His people for His work with a renewed understanding of their dependence on Him.

Hebrews 6:9-20 reminds us that Christ is the anchor for our souls. His character is immutable, and His promises are true because He cannot lie.  3 questions to ask yourself as you read this passage:  1.What am I anchoring my soul to?  If you are anchored to Christ, your life will produce this fruit:  Labor in love (vs. 10a)  Minister to the saints (vs. 10b)  Diligence and rejection of laziness (vs. 11)  Learning from and imitating other believers (vs. 12)  2. Is God a trustworthy anchor?  Three reasons God is trustworthy:  His Person (vs. 13-15)  His Purpose (vs. 14)  His Promise (vs. 13b. 16-18)  3. Am I anchored to Christ?  Jesus is a better anchor for our souls. He calls us to be disciples, which means to be disciplined, to spend time learning from Him, and to talk to Him so we can become more like Him.    Join Pastor Chad Glover as he shares how Christ is the anchor for our souls.  Don't forget to click the “bell” to SUBSCRIBE to get more videos like this to grow your faith!  Connect with us on Social Media ↴  Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/abundantlifels/  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/abundantlifels  Be a part of the Great Commission: https://livingproof.co/irresistible/  More information on our sermons: https://livingproof.co/sermons/  Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?

God has a mission for us to fulfil. He sends us to preach the Gospel and make disciples (Mark 16:15-20, Matt 28:18-20). His Purpose is to save as many as possible and we must play our part. We need His POWER to be effective in His work of being His witness (Acts 1:8). That's what the BAPTISM in the SPIRIT is about. If you are saved, you have the Spirit WITHIN, but you also need to receive the anointing of His Spirit UPON, like Jesus (Acts 10:38). There are 2 impartations of the Spirit, WITHIN and UPON. In both cases, God only gives us the Spirit when we surrender to Him. First, by faith we surrender to His saving Love and Lordship, and are saved. There is also a 2nd specific surrender to God that needs to happen, when we say: “Lord, I am willing to do whatever you want me to do, but I need your power. So, I dedicate myself to you to be empowered to fulfil my ministry.” When you do that, you are in position to receive the fullness of the Spirit UPON you to accomplish the mission He has for you. Acts 1:8: “You shall receive POWER (dunamis, potential energy) when the HOLY SPIRIT has come UPON you; and you will be My WITNESSES.” So, we have His potential Power upon us, if baptised in the Spirit, but we must ignite it by speaking His words. Once we have His POWER UPON, we must RELEASE it by PRAYING in the Spirit and SPEAKING His words. In Acts 2:3-4 the Spirit filled them (v4) and came upon them (v3), manifesting as fire (v3), as they prayed in tongues (v4). When we speak under the inspiration of the Spirit, we SHINE His LIGHT (2Cor 4:3-6, Matt 5:14,16). As we preach the Gospel, testify, and pray in the Spirit, that fire is ignited. By yielding to the Spirit and speaking His words, they activated His Power upon them, and their light shined forth. The outward evidence of receiving the Spirit UPON is SPEAKING in TONGUES (Acts 2:4, 10:44-48). This is the BAPTISM in the SPIRIT (Acts 1:5, 11:15-17). A spiritual law is you can't make an UNCLEAN thing HOLY. It must first be CLEANSED by BLOOD, and only then can it be made HOLY, by DEDICATING it to God, for the HOLY SPIRIT to possess it. The Presence of the Holy Spirit in us makes us holy. You can only be BAPTISED in the SPIRIT, if you have first been BORN AGAIN, for you must first be CLEANSED by the BLOOD, before you can be made HOLY by the SPIRIT within and upon. When you receive Christ (1) you are cleansed by His Blood, and born again, and only then does (2) the Spirit come WITHIN you. You must first (1) be BORN AGAIN by the application of OIL of the Spirit, before (2) your spirit can receive the NEW WINE of the Spirit within and upon you (Matthew 9:17). When God poured His Spirit UPON the Gentiles in Acts 10, Peter knew God had fully accepted them, like the Jews, on the basis of their faith in Christ. Acts 15:8-9: “God, (1) who knows the heart (that they were saved), (2) acknowledged them (outwardly, before the Jews), by giving them the Holy Spirit (upon), just as He did to us (the Jews, at Pentecost), and (in this way, proved to us that) He made no distinction between us (Jews) and them (Gentiles) - that (1) He had PURIFIED (cleansed) their hearts by faith.” When you dedicate to God to do His will, He sets you apart to His work, by anointing you with His Spirit UPON. First (1) you are SET APART to God (made HOLY), to belong to Him, by the Spirit WITHIN. Then (2) you are SET APART to do His work by the Spirit UPON (the BAPTISM in the SPIRIT). God had to do 2 things in Isaiah to prepare him to be a prophet: (1) CLEANSE him by BLOOD. Then (2) ANOINT him with the SPIRIT, so his heart and lips were on FIRE with His Spirit. When he saw God's glory, he repented of his unclean heart and lips, and dedicated himself to God (Isaiah 6:5). Then a BURNING COAL from the Altar of Sacrifice was applied to the incense altar of his heart and lips. These COALS, burning from the FIRE of the Sacrifice, had the BLOOD on them, which had paid for his cleansing. They represent the SPIRIT, who communicates the value of the Sacrifice to us, (1) CLEANSING us by the BLOOD, and (2) IMPARTING His holy FIRE, causing the incense of prayer and worship to ascend to God from our burning heart (v6-7). They also represent the ANOINTINGS of God, purchased on the Cross, where Christ shed His Blood for us. So, a burning anointing of God came on Isaiah. His heart was on fire with God's fire, and his lips were on fire, declaring God's truth. This fire of God on him was his anointing to be a prophet. The burning anointing of the coal set his tongue on fire, giving him power to prophesy. Having received this power, he was sent to go forth and speak for God (v8). This is how we receive the Baptism in the Spirit. If born again, you qualify, but you need to dedicate yourself to God and ask Him to FILL you with His SPIRIT, and yield your tongue to His Spirit to speak His words (Acts 2:4). The POWER of the SPIRIT (1) filled their HEART from the inside, and (2) came on their LIPS, to speak His words.

Join me today as we look at time. There has been an accusation against God that His timing is off; that He is TOO SLOW.  He counters that it is not slowness, but that His PURPOSE is PATIENCE so that PEOPLE do not PERISH.  He wants everybody to have a chance to be with Him. That comes only through repentance.  I didn't repent yesterday. I haven't repented today. "I'll do it tomorrow". Well that is the only day we DO NOT get. That potential future day is gone like a thief in the night. In reality, the only day we have is TODAY. The only word we have is, "I'm SORRY."bewithme.us and bewithme.us@gmail.com

Exodus 33:14-15 “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Then he said to Him, “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here.We Talk About God's Presence Being Inescapable and That He Is Omnipresent  “Everywhere At The Same Time, Always  Present,” But A Closer Look At Scripture  Reveals That God Is More Concerned With His Presence Manifest In Relationship with His people and The Redemption Of Mankind.We See That In The Bible that The Story Of Scripture Begins And Ends With The Presence Of God. The Difference Between His Omnipresence And His Manifest Presence, Is The Same As The Difference Between Saying, “God Is Everywhere,” And Saying “God Is Here.” Join us as Pastor Art teaches how Praise ushers in God's Presence and with His Presence the Power of God manifests to accomplish His Purpose. Support the showThanks for joining us!

There is a purpose for the pain that we face and go through. We learn to GROW through what we Go through and His Purpose is accomplished through it!

Jesus wrote a letter to the church in Pergamos. He recognized their situation, because He saw exactly where they lived. In fact, He planted them where they were for His Purpose. He also saw the areas where they were compromising, so He provided them a pathway back into effective ministry.In this sermon Pastor Monte encourages us to confront the compromise that we've allowed to take root in our own lives, so that we can receive the Legacy Jesus has for each one of us as individuals, but also as His Body in our world.Support the show

His Purpose. Why we are Here. Moving Forward.Give to ROBERT's GO FUND ME: Robert's Go Fund MeRobert Treat was born in Anchorage, Alaska in 1969 and adopted at birth by an oil driller and his wife moving to Malta when he was a week old. He spent most of his childhood traveling all over the world living in Africa, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Norway, Trinidad, Borneo, Scotland and several other countries. Robert left high school at age 17 and immediately enlisted in the Marine Corps. Prior to leaving for basic training his recruitment was transferred to the United States Navy due to extremely high testing scores. He was initially trained as an Operations Specialist and later went on to become an instructor for Anti-Submarine Warfare specializing in Target Motion Analysis. Following Robert's short career in the Navy, he went on to work in the private sector as a contractor for several government Intelligence and Law Enforcement Agencies. He was contracted to many Special Access Programs specializing primarily in Project and Finance Management. While in this role he managed projects relating to Space Based Electronics and Armor Systems, Genetic Engineering, Social Engineering and Psychological Operations along with several other “Dark Programs”. Robert cites his most interesting role as working as an undercover operator within an undisclosed “illuminate” order and serving as their Assistant Minister of Finance. While in this role he enjoyed the trust and confidences of many of the world's most secretive elites and had first hand access to many of their agendas and goals. Robert retired from this life in 2015 and settled into a quiet life as a regular citizen and in 2018 he opened a small bar in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. The rise of COVID in 2019 brought with it reminiscences of some of the more frightening and insidious elements of the projects he participated in throughout his career.In 2020 Robert was diagnosed with a progressively terminal illness and made the decision to disclose his knowledge and contacted his trusted friend Connie Willis to share this information.

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:0:00 - Intro 0:14 {Bookshelf Tour!} When can we get a bookshelf tour? 11:48 {Should Churches Keep Records of Giving?} My church requires all employees to give to the church (in general; any amount is fine). They pulled me aside to ask why I haven’t been giving, and when I told them I was, but that I felt better giving anonymously in the offering plate rather than having a record attached to my name, they told me it needed to be tracked. Am I wrong for feeling weird about this, or are they? 17:49 {Is Absolution or Absolving of Sins Biblical?} Does John 20:23 and Matthew 6:14 indicate that absolution (the act of forgiving someone for having done something wrong or sinful) is biblical? 23:52 {New Names in Heaven?} Do you have any insight about Revelation 2:17, specifically about the implication of new names in Heaven? 29:07 {Is Changing our Appearance Sinful?} Would changing our appearance in any way be a sin since God has created us in His image? For example, if we wear makeup, is that covering our natural beauty? And if we shave our body, is that destroying the beauty God has given us? 33:53 {Am I Obedient Enough? Repentant Enough?} I have recently been worrying a lot about whether I am obedient enough, repentant enough, or believing enough to be a real Christian. How can I biblically deal with this struggle? 39:55 {Why Does Jesus Conceal the Meaning of Things?} In Luke 9:44-45, why would Jesus tell His disciples this, only to have the meaning concealed? Why tell them if it wasn’t meant for them to understand? 43:52 {Raising Dead & Healing for Today?} Raising the Dead: Should we practice Matthew 10:8 today, or has the command to heal, cast out demons, and raise the dead ceased? 47:53 {Why is Abraham Commended for being with Hagar?} Why is Abraham commended for his faith when he tries to conceive a son through his slave, Hagar? Isn't that an indication that he had a moment where he lacked faith? 50:24 {Can the Deceased Hear/See Us?} Do you think that dead people can hear us and see what’s happening in our world? 55:40 {Discerning God’s Voice} How can I tell when the Holy Spirit is talking to me? Ever since hearing a sermon about a pastor's conviction to spend more time with God, I think I’m hearing God ask for more time when I close my Bible. 59:56 {Encouragement amid Infertility} My husband and I have struggled to have a baby, and I have had Psalm 127:3 on my mind. It makes me feel like there is something I need to do, and a lack of faith. What is the context of the “reward”? 1:04:18 {Why Can I Be Saved, But Not Judas?} Heartbreakingly, I have betrayed Christ for things worth far less than 30 pieces of silver. What is fundamentally different between Judas and me? Why can I still be saved, but he couldn’t? 1:06:36 {Who are the Called According to His Purpose?} Given the way Romans 8:28 is worded, I am wondering: are all people called according to His purpose, or only those of us who love Him? 1:09:27 {Hot? Cold? Lukewarm?} What does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:16 when He says it’s better to be hot or cold than lukewarm? 1:13:50 {Could Cain Still Be Alive?} How do you feel about the Bible conspiracy that Cain is still alive somehow and is wandering the Earth to this day? 1:15:20 {Witnessing to Stubborn Family Members} Does “shaking the dust off your feet” (Matthew 10: 14) ever apply to family? Or are we to always endure in witnessing to family, despite continual rejection? 1:18:15 {Was Jesus’ Analogy Flawed?} Someone's response to Matthew 5:13 was “How can salt lose its saltiness? If it wasn’t salty, it wouldn't be salt.” I understand what Jesus is saying here, but does this mean Je

The Book of Romans Chapter 8 - We Are Predestined and Called According to His Purpose by Shawn Ozbun

While scripture reveals the character and nature of God, prayer is the place where we go to form a relationship with Him. It's simply a conversation with the One we love. How can we develop a deep relationship of prayer? On this episode we'll explore some ways to approach prayer and some of the questions and issues that affect our prayer. Formats for Prayers The ACTS method of Christian prayer: ADORATION: Give God praise and honor for who He is as Lord over all. CONFESSION: Honestly confess and repent of the sin in your life. THANKSGIVING: Verbalize what you're grateful for in your life and in the world around you. SUPPLICATION: Pray for the needs of others and yourself. THE LORD'S PRAYER This prayer has been broken down many ways as a model. Here are three models to identify the various sections. His Name, His kingdom, His will, Give us, Forgive us, Lead us, Deliver us. (Andrew Murray) God's glory, God's kingdom, God's will, Provision, Forgiveness, Guidance, Protection. His Presence, His praise, His Purpose, His Provision, His Pardon, His Protection Quotes “The first and chief need of our Christian life is fellowship with God.” Andrew Murray “God will either give us what we ask or give us what we would have asked if we knew everything that He knows.” Timothy Keller “God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart.” Charles Spurgeon Bible Verses Quoted: Matthew 18:19-20 Romans 8:28-29 Luke 18:1-8 I John 5:14 Jeremiah 33:3 Mark 14:36 James 4:8 Other Resources Christenson, Evelyn Carol.

Listen as Pastor Luke finishes up Part 4 of Persecution and how God can still use this in our lives, for His Purpose. 

God's purpose for our lives is always beyond our ability do it on our own – it requires God's help. He knows that we're prone to being delayed or distracted by our fears, friends, feelings & frustrations.As a result, He will use various conditions and actions to move us into His purpose for our lives. We are never able to fully stop at places of confusion or celebration, only the place of total obedience to His purpose.

When we encounter Hannah in I Samuel 1, she is carrying an ever-increasing “bitterness of soul”. There are factors in Hannah's journey and ours that lead us from the bitter anxieties of unfulfilled dreams to the sweetness of productivity. What becomes apparent is that God's design for Hannah was infinitely greater than Hannah's desire. What Hannah wanted was 1) a social safety net and 2) bragging rights. What God wanted was a prophet who would identify and mentor one of the greatest progenitors and prefigures of the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. She wanted to give birth to temporal security. God wanted her to give birth to eternal destiny. Therefore, He shut up her womb until her purpose was submitted to His. Moreover, God used Hannah's frustration to bring her around to a place of surrender. She “poured out her soul before the Lord.” In a prayer of consecration, she emptied herself of the bitterness that had filled her earlier. We notice that soon after her soul was emptied of bitterness, her womb was filled with a son. Her desire was accomplished; her soul experienced sweetness. How many professionals are serving in bitterness (toxicity, poison) because they want the right thing but for the wrong reason? God, in His providential mercy, will sometimes cause a delay in success because if the goal were to be achieved in bitterness, the attainment itself would be contaminated and fall short of God's purpose and the individual's healthy sense of personal gratification. If you are carrying bitterness within, for whatever reason, just know that God awaits you – He will let you, help you, to pour that poison out in His Presence. Then He will lead you to fulfillment of His Purpose. This is the ultimate sweetness for your soul and for every aspect of your life.
