Have you ever felt like God was silent, or that your waiting season had no purpose? In this message, Pastor Steven Staton reminds us that God's silence never means His absence. Through the story of David's anointing in 1 Samuel 16, we discover that God is always working — even in the waiting.Before David ever held a crown, he learned faithfulness in the pasture. While others overlooked him, God was shaping his heart to lead His people. In the same way, God uses our seasons of obscurity, monotony, and preparation to form in us the character needed for what's next.This message will challenge and encourage you to stay faithful where you are, to trust God's timing, and to worship while you wait. The pasture may feel hidden, but it's where God does His best work.Key Scriptures:1 Samuel 16:1–13Psalm 13Romans 5:3–4Main Takeaway:Don't mistake God's silence for His absence — He is working in your waiting.Watch, reflect, and share:God chooses the unlikely to accomplish His purposes.Character is greater than charisma.Faithfulness in small things prepares you for greater things.Learn more about the Real Hope Christmas Party outreach at bellshoals.com/realhopechristmas.

What if courage doesn't come from standing alone—but from standing together?In this message from Esther 4:13–17, our Discipleship Director, Matt Fucarino, teaches that courage shows up in community. When Esther faced an impossible choice—to risk her life before the king or remain silent—she didn't do it alone. God surrounded her with Mordecai and an entire community fasting and praying for her.Even though God's name isn't mentioned once in Esther's story, His presence is everywhere. The same is true for us—His grace meets us right where we are, and His people help us stand when life feels overwhelming.In this sermon, you'll learn:How courage grows when we walk with othersWhy vulnerability and community go hand in handHow God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary thingsWhy Jesus is the true and better Esther—who risked it all for our rescueWhat it means to find hope, healing, and strength togetherKey Scriptures:- Esther 4:13–17 — “For such a time as this.”- Philippians 3:20 — “We are citizens of heaven.”- 2 Corinthians 5:20 — “We are Christ's ambassadors.”- Luke 9:23 — “Take up your cross daily and follow Me.”Search Keywords:Esther sermon, courage and community, for such a time as this, Pastor Matt Huff, TNLC sermons, forgotten promises series, finding courage in hard times, God's purpose in pain, faith and friendship, biblical communityYou might feel far from home—but God has placed you exactly where you can make the biggest difference.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who needs the courage to trust God and lean on community.

God calls us to move from fear to faith. Perfect love casts out fear and leads us to “enter in” to His promises today—not someday.Key Scriptures (quick notes)Deuteronomy 1:6–8 — Break camp; go take possessionDeuteronomy 1:17–18 — Do not fear people; judgment is God'sNumbers 13–14 — Giants vs. faith; Joshua and Caleb believeProverbs 29:25 — Fear of man is a snare1 John 4:18 — Perfect love casts out fear2 Timothy 1:7 — God did not give a spirit of fear2 Corinthians 10:4–5 — Pull down strongholds; cast down false reasoningsEphesians 6:12 — Our wrestle is not against blood and fleshIsaiah 6:1–5 — From horizontal to vertical visionEzekiel 28:15–19 — Lucifer's fall; the start of two willsJohn 1:3; Colossians 1:16 — Christ the CreatorZephaniah 3:17 — The Father rests in His loveRevelation 3:20 — Fellowship: He stands and knocksMatthew 11:28–30 — Take My yoke; find restHebrews 4:1–10 — Enter His restPsalm 103:12; Romans 6:1–6 — Sins removed; old self crucifiedPhilippians 2:12–13 — Work out what God works in1 Peter 5:7 — Cast all care on HimZechariah 4:10 — Do not despise small thingsJob 36:7 — His eye never leaves the righteousThemes“You've stayed long enough—break camp and advance.”Leadership under pressure: judge without partiality; do not fear people.The real fight is with fear-fed reasoning, not “giants.”Two wills, two forces: fear or love; we cannot serve two masters.Perfect love actively expels fear as we submit our will.Entering promises brings new battles—and deeper rest.Fellowship restores perspective: from horizontal worry to vertical worship.God never violates our will; He waits to “grace us out” when we cry, “Help!”What We LearnedFear is a spirit that snares; love is God's active energy that frees.Strongholds form where our will won't submit; truth pulls them down.Rest = transferring our full weight to Christ (like sitting without clenching).Joshua and Caleb model faith that sees promises bigger than giants.Chastening is loving correction, not payback; Calvary settled the debt.Discussion StartersWhere have we believed “giants” more than God's promises?What does “taking His yoke” look like in our schedule this week?Which stronghold thought keeps circling, and what truth replaces it?

We are called to move forward by faith, not fear. God has already given us the land—His promises and His rest—and invites us to enter in through trust, surrender, and submission of our will. Fear is the spirit that opposes love, but perfect love casts it out.Key Scriptures (mentioned or read)Deuteronomy 1 Proverbs 29:25 Ezekiel 28 Isaiah 6 1 John 4:18 2 Timothy 1:7 2 Corinthians 10:4–5 Ephesians 6:12 Romans 7 Matthew 6:24 Philippians 2:12–13 Hebrews 12 Revelation 3:20 Zechariah 4:10ThemesFaith Over Fear — God calls us to advance into His promises despite giants and obstacles. Fear paralyzes; faith acts on divine certainty.The Will of God — From creation there was one will; rebellion created two. Our rest comes when our will aligns with His.The Origin of Fear — Fear is not from God; it's a demonic spirit that seeks to snare believers and oppose divine love.Perfect Love Casts Out Fear — Experiencing God's completed love removes torment and brings rest to the soul.The Two Masters — We cannot serve both love and fear, light and darkness. Submission of the will brings freedom.Rest in Christ — Just as Israel entered the Promised Land, we enter rest by accepting our death and resurrection with Christ.The Yoke of Love — The neck represents the will; taking Christ's yoke keeps us close and teaches us gentle submission.Spiritual Warfare — Our battle is not against flesh and blood but against fear-based lies that oppose truth.Growth Through Grace — Chastisement and correction are acts of love; God lovingly trains us toward maturity.Dependence and Worship — Trust is worship. To rest in Him is faith in action—just as sitting without tension is an act of trust.What We LearnedGod's promises are sure; fear blinds us from entering into them.Fear's root is pride—self-reliance instead of God-dependence.Love's root is humility—resting in what Christ has already finished.Our growth experience depends on submission of the will, not striving.God never violates our will but waits to be gracious when we call for help.Each trial is designed to replace fear with faith and self-effort with rest.Entering God's rest requires embracing our death with Christ, not just His death for us.The Spirit reveals truth gently, leading us into light and casting out darkness.Reflection QuestionWhere have we allowed fear to dictate our steps, and how can we let love lead us forward into God's promises?

In this message, we look at the story of Saul—the man who looked like everything Israel wanted in a king. He was tall, strong, impressive, and came from a wealthy family. But beneath the surface, his heart was already being eaten away by hidden flaws—spiritual neglect, insecurity, pride, and disobedience. Through Saul's story in 1 Samuel 9, we learn a sobering truth: it's not the big failures that destroy us, but the small compromises we ignore. Like termites behind a wall, little sins—small lies, pride, laziness, selfishness—slowly hollow out our spiritual foundation until everything collapses. This lesson challenges us to “sweat the small stuff”—to pay attention to the subtle warnings, the quiet compromises, the habits and attitudes that weaken our walk with God. It's a call to humility, repentance, and spiritual awareness before it's too late. God doesn't want us standing in the ruins of what could have been. He wants to rebuild us from the inside out. When we face our hidden sins and let Him restore us, what once was rotting can become new again.

Through the contrast between Caleb's giant-killer faith and the ten spies' grasshopper mentality, we understand how perception determines possession in the Kingdom. This segment culminates in prophetic activation and prayers for divine acceleration.Key Scriptures:2 Corinthians 5:17.

Before David fell publicly, he drifted privately. His story reminds us that sin rarely happens in a single moment—it happens through a series of unchecked decisions, quiet compromises, and subtle desires that pull our hearts away from God. In Week 5 of The Life of David, Pastor Dustin Woodward takes us into one of the most pivotal chapters in David's life: the moment temptation turned into tragedy. What began as a glance became deception, a decision, and ultimately, destruction. But even in David's darkest chapter, God's grace wasn't finished writing his story. Temptation isn't just about weakness—it's about where we've placed our loyalty. Will we trust God's will, or satisfy self-will? Through Scripture and honest reflection, Pastor Dustin shows us how temptation takes root, why desire can't be controlled outside of God's design, and how conviction opens the door to restoration. Key Scriptures: 2 Samuel 11 | James 1:14–15 | Titus 2:11–14 In this message, you'll discover: How small moments of compromise lead to life-changing consequences The difference between temptation and participation Why deception grows when we negotiate with sin instead of confronting it How conviction, not condemnation, leads to freedom and restoration The transforming power of grace that can redeem any failure If you've ever felt trapped by temptation or weighed down by regret, this message is for you. God's grace meets us not at the end of our story, but right in the middle of our failure.

What does it mean to truly worship God? In this message from our We Believe series, Brian Ming unpacks what true godly worship looks like—not on our terms, but on God's.Worship isn't about preference or performance; it's about posture. God is seeking worshipers who will worship Him in spirit and in truth (John 4:23–24). True worship starts with understanding who God is—God is love (1 John 4:8)—and responds with a life of surrender, expression, and sacrifice.From Abel's offering to David's costly worship, we're reminded that real worship costs something. It's more than a song; it's obedience, humility, and a heart fully given to God.Join us as we rediscover the power of genuine worship—the kind that moves beyond the stage and fills the room, that lifts hands, raises voices, and gives glory back to the One who deserves it all.

Through his personal journey from writing letters to becoming a prolific author, we learn that prophecy is fulfilled not at the moment of manifestation, but at the moment of faith.**Key Scriptures:**- 2 Corinthians 1:20.

In this message, The Fight for the Next Generation, we turn to 2 Kings 3:26–27 and hear the urgent call of God for His church: the harvest is ready, and it's time to fight for the next generation of believers. This is not about age, but about souls—those who are coming to Christ for the first time and those yet to be reached. This message challenges us to: Break generational curses so new believers don't inherit the same bondage. Hold to the ancient paths of truth (Jeremiah 6:16) and not water down the gospel. Preach Christ and Him crucified with clarity and boldness. Embrace the power of the Holy Ghost who still heals, delivers, and sets free. Show grace to new converts as they grow through the process of sanctification. We cannot pass on what we have not broken through. If we remain bound, those stepping into the faith will stumble where we stumbled. But if we walk in freedom, the next wave of believers will be bold, Spirit-filled, and ready to carry the truth of Jesus into the world. Key Scriptures: 2 Kings 3:26–27 Proverbs 22:28 Jeremiah 6:16 1 Samuel 3 1 Corinthians 6:11 The time is now. The church must rise—not to raise a new gospel, but to raise up a new generation of disciples who will spread the message of Jesus like wildfire.

Courage In The Face Of Giants - The Life of David

This week in The Life of David (The Making of a King), Pastor Dustin Woodward unpacks one of the most iconic stories in Scripture: David vs. Goliath. It's more than history — it's a picture of how God still calls ordinary people to step into extraordinary moments. David wasn't looking for a spotlight. He was simply running an errand, delivering food to his brothers. But in the Valley of Elah, an ordinary assignment turned into an extraordinary opportunity. A shepherd boy, overlooked by many, stepped forward in faith to face the giant that left an entire army paralyzed in fear. Key Scriptures: 1 Samuel 17:17–51 | Luke 16:10 | 2 Corinthians 1:21–22 In this message, you'll discover: Ordinary assignments lead to extraordinary opportunities – Your faithfulness in the small opens the door to God's greater plan. Your past battles prepare you for today's victories – Every lion and bear you've faced was preparing you for something bigger. You can't fight giants in someone else's armor – God's anointing rests on authenticity, not imitation. You can't conquer what you won't confront – Avoidance never brings freedom; victory requires courage. The enemy's weapons become your testimony – What the enemy meant to defeat you can become the very thing God uses to display His power. “Opportunities often come disguised as giants.” “The giant you won't face is the giant you can't defeat.” Whether your “giant” looks like fear, addiction, insecurity, financial pressure, or broken relationships — the truth is this: the battle belongs to the Lord. What God has entrusted to you is enough to defeat the giant in front of you. This message will strengthen your faith, challenge your perspective, and remind you that with God, no giant is too big, no battle is too strong, and no situation is beyond His power. Our Prayer Today: That you would rise with courage like David, face the giants standing in your way, and trust that the same God who empowered David is with you right now.

As Christians, how should we respond?In today's teaching:1 - Why has there been global grief over the assassination of Charlie Kirk?2 - Is it time for Christians to rise up and retaliate?3 - Did the Bible prophesy an increase of violence and persecution in the last days?Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 1 John 3:11-16Other Scriptures referenced in this teaching: John 12:24-26; Psalm 94:1-5; Romans 12:17-19; Matthew 5:44-48; Matthew 24:9-14; 2 Timothy 3:1-3Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffshuttlesworth/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttleswor Learn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

In this thought-provoking episode of Made for Impact, host Petia Kolibova Burns dives into the controversial world of human design—a system mixing astrology, I Ching, Kabbalah, and chakras—and why she no longer puts her trust in it. Once a tool she embraced in her personal and professional life, Petia now re-examines its origins and spiritual implications through the lens of her Christian faith. She candidly shares how she was first drawn in, what made human design so appealing, and the moment she began to question whether this system was truly serving her—or subtly pulling her away from God. What You'll Learn in This Episode The real origins of human design (and why its mystical roots matter). • How Petia went from skeptic to believer to Christ-led truth seeker. • Why human design, astrology, enneagram, and similar tools may feel like solutions—but leave a deeper spiritual void. • The danger of using external systems as “temporary fixes” instead of pursuing lasting fulfillment in God. • Questions every woman of faith should ask herself before relying on new age practices. Key Scriptures & Reflections The Bible's caution against idolatry and misplaced trust. • Why seeking identity and purpose outside of God can become a subtle form of bondage.

Because of the social media wildfire of rapture predictions for September 23rd, 2025, I have had a multitude of questions come my way in recent weeks.First of all, the doctrine of the rapture is a biblical belief that both living and dead believers will be suddenly “caught up” or “snatched away” from earth to meet Jesus Christ in the air at the time of his return.Despite the growing unlettered attack upon the doctrine of the rapture, the majority of early church fathers wrote about escaping the tribulation and being saved from coming wrath, which is an early rudimentary form of rapture theology.In our time together today, I would like to answer 3 questions often asked on this subject.1 - Why have so many predicted the Rapture will take place on September 23rd, 2025?2 - Does the Bible teach the Rapture will take place on a Jewish holy day?3 - What does the Bible say about date setting? ———————————————————Key Scriptures for today's teaching: Text: Matthew 24:30-36Other scriptures used in this teaching: Mark 13:32-33; Acts 1:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:1-2Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Thank you for listening, and subscribe for new content each week. Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffshuttlesworth/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttleswor Learn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/
