Key Verses: Matthew 13:24-30; 36-43

The Savior's Standard Dr. Jacob Hawk Human nature seeks the least required. We want the bottom line. It's easy to adopt that same mindset toward faith. Matthew 18 unveils “The Savior's Standard” of forgiveness. It stretches our understanding and challenges our commitment, but it builds relationships that soar. Key Verses: - Matthew 18:21-35 - Galatians 6:10 Matthew 18:21-35 NIV Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.“Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold was brought to him.Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.“At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,' he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.'The servant's master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.“But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!' he demanded.“His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.'“But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt.When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.“Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,' he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to.Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?'In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.“This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.” Galatians 6:10 NIV Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.Subscribe to PRESTONCREST - with Gordon Dabbs on Soundwise

Pastor John Ryan Cantu brings this week's message, “Nothing But Leaves." Key Verses: Matthew 21.6-11 ESV: “The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them. Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?” And the crowds said, “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”” Mark 11.12-14 ESV: “On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.” Sermon Topics: Holiness If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe and share it with your friends on social media.

This week, we look at the miracle of Jesus walking on water. When the disciples were instructed to go to the other side of the sea of Galilee, they set off. Yet as they were traveling and were far off from the land, they were experiencing difficulty because they were against the wind and waves. During this difficulty, Jesus made His way out to them. Through this miracle, Pastor Brandon points out how there can be times when we are where God wants us to be yet still face difficulty. Through this miracle we can learn that even if there is difficulty or trials, when we respond to what Jesus tells us to do, amazing things happen. But to get through the difficulties of this life we need to keep our eyes on Jesus. - Key Verses // Matthew 14:22-33 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

Biblical fasting involves intentionally abstaining from food to dedicate time to prayer and spiritual growth. While Jesus presented fasting as an expected practice, it must be done privately and with pure motives. This spiritual discipline helps believers draw closer to God, hear His voice more clearly, and put physical desires in submission to spiritual growth. The practice often accompanies major decisions, times of repentance, or periods of seeking spiritual breakthrough.Key Verses: Matthew 6:16-18, Joel 2:12-13, Isaiah 58:3-7, Acts 13:2-3, Psalm 34:18Key Takeaways:Biblical fasting is specifically about abstaining from food for spiritual purposes.Fasting should be done in private, not for public recognition.Fasting without prayer is merely dieting.Discomfort in fasting helps us grow spiritually.Fasting helps us hear God's voice more clearly by removing distractions.Reflection Questions:What misconceptions about fasting have you held in the past?Why do you think Jesus emphasized keeping fasting private rather than public?How does fasting help us hear God's voice more clearly?What role does discomfort play in our spiritual growth?How can fasting be used as a response to personal or community challenges?What's the difference between fasting and dieting according to the sermon?How can we ensure our fasting is genuine and not just for show?What specific spiritual goals would you like to achieve through fasting?Practical Application: Choose one meal per day to fast from during the 40-day period, and dedicate that mealtime to prayer and Bible reading. Keep a journal of what God reveals to you during these times of focused devotion.Support the show

Growing In God Podcast Web Description: We can be very concerned and even fearful about all the tumult in the world. But as Psalm 2 explains, the nations are in an uproar because they oppose the Kingdom of God. So we should not be surprised by what is happening since we are the ones praying, “Thy Kingdom come, and Thy will be done.” We should be immovable in our faith because our focus is on the Father and not on the world. Show Notes: It is easy to worry about all the turmoil in the world right now. But the events we see taking place are no accident. And they are not without our participation as Christians. We have initiated and are initiating much of what is going on. You could say, “I'm not doing anything. How am I making these things happen?” Well, for centuries Christians have prayed to the Father, “Your Kingdom come; Your will be done on earth.” It is His Kingdom—His will—that the nations are raging against. We can compare these times to watching a hurricane. From one perspective it is a confusing scene of things being ripped apart and swirling around. From another perspective we see the weather forces that are the root cause of all the turmoil. And in the simple prayer Christ taught us, we can maintain a perspective above the storm that is focused on the root cause. We can have a fixed focus on the Father, His will, and His coming Kingdom. You do not have to look around and say, “What is all this craziness in the world? Can you believe what's happening?” Instead, look at the root cause of the hurricane and recognize that everything happening is very simple to understand. It is exactly what was spoken by John the Baptist and Yeshua (Jesus) two thousand years ago. And it was spoken by all the prophets before that about the son of David coming and setting up His Kingdom. By this focus we can put our stake in the ground and become immovable, which is where we are supposed to be in our faith.   Key Verses: •       Matthew 6:7–13. “Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth.” •       1 Corinthians 15:25–28. “He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.” •       Matthew 3:1–3. “John the Baptist came, … saying, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.'” •       Matthew 4:12–17. “Jesus began to preach and say, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.'” •       Psalm 2:1–12. “As for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion.”   Quotes:  •       “This has been going on for a long time. This preaching of and speaking of the Kingdom of God is at the very heart of Christ, the very heart of Judaism, the very heart of our faith.” •       “When nations are addressed, it is not necessarily every individual within that nation. We as believers do have a way of thinking that is a biblical worldview. We have a way of living that is, again, not necessarily in alignment with all of those in the nation surrounding us.” •       “There are going to be many other rulers and dictators and governors, even democracies, that are going to be displaced by this Kingdom that God is bringing forth.”   Takeaways: 1.    What are we living through in these days that we call the end-time? We are living through the dispossession of the leadership and rulership of the earth because the Kingdom of God is coming. And do not forget that we as believers have been a great part of praying these days into existence. 2.    Do not look around and say, “I don't get it. I'm afraid. I'm confused. I'm concerned about the wars and the rumors of wars. It seems like the world has become very dangerous.” Well, it has. And that is because the Prince of Peace is coming to rule and reign. So, do not let your heart be in fear. Do not let your spirit become passive or melt within you. 3.    Continue to pray the prayer that Yeshua gave us from the beginning. Keep your focus on the Father. Keep worshipping Him as the Lord, the Creator of all, and keep speaking into existence, “Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”

Web Description: In this day it is essential that we know and believe the love God has for us, as we read in 1 John 4:16. Otherwise, we become overwhelmed by the increasing lawlessness in the world, and we find our love growing cold. The Kingdom is God's love. And we can only minister His love to others when we know His love for us personally.   Show Notes: Yeshua (Jesus) said, “Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold.” Already we see this happening with people as they react to the increasing lawlessness around them. The fact is that we are affected by the spirit realm. And as we watch all the negativity happening in the world, we have to take care that we are not drawn into the same spirit.   Yeshua directly tied the increase in lawlessness to people losing their love. Satan knows this and brings all the lawlessness and wickedness because they generate a force in direct opposition to what Christ is trying to impart to us, which is His mind that has the capacity to know the love of God. As His Son, Yeshua knew the love the Father had for Him, and He came to impart the knowledge of that love to us as individuals.   We need to come into the knowledge of the Father's love for us because Christ is sending us into the world for the same purpose that He came. It is not to do signs and wonders. It is not to perform healings. It is not to speak living words. It is to impart the love of the Father into the lives of people. But you cannot impart what you do not have. The greatest preparation you can do right now to carry out the will of God in the earth is to become aware of His love for you personally.   Key Verses:   •       Matthew 24:12–14. “Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold.” •       1 John 4:7–13. “The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.” •       1 John 4:14–16. “We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us.” •       Ephesians 3:16–19. “Know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge.” •       1 Corinthians 2:16. “We have the mind of Christ.” •       Romans 12:2. “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” •       John 15:9–13. “Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.” •       John 17:24–26. “The love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”   Quotes:   •       “Everything that's going to happen in the bringing forth of the Kingdom between now and the manifestation of it in the earth is born out of love.” •       “The spirits that are taking over this age right now have a purpose. And that is to block the knowledge of love. It is to remove love from the hearts of humanity.” •       “If we can come to know this love that God has for us individually, we can be filled up to the fullness of Him, to the fullness of that love.”   Takeaways:   1.    When we see everything happening in the earth, our immediate tendency is to be caught up in the negative. But it is not for us to relate to what is going on from a negative perspective. It is simply a matter of shifting our focus and awareness to God's presence. 2.    Yeshua had the awareness of God's love for Him personally, and He functioned out of the knowledge and the understanding of that love. And Christ came to bring the knowledge of that love to us as individuals. 3.    Why is satan bringing all this lawlessness and wickedness and this increase of evil? Because if he does that, then the love of people grows cold. The wickedness is in direct opposition to what Christ is trying to impart to us, which is His mind that has the capacity to know the love of God. 4.    As humans we struggle with knowing the love that God has for us. That is why we need this impartation of the mind of Christ that is beyond human knowledge or human ability to understand.  

Web Description: Let us come to Christ and learn of Him. Let us take on His yoke. Let us change our whole approach to walking with Him. Instead of stressing and struggling and carrying a burden He has not put on us, let us enter His rest. His works are already finished. And it is not our job to do new works or to pray for new things. We are simply to be the expression of what He has already created.   Show Notes: After years of serving the Lord, do you feel weary? Do you feel a heaviness? Are you weighed down by all the burdens you carry? That means you need to try a different approach. Yeshua (Jesus) said, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” It comes back to the fact that we need to enter His rest. We need to remember the Sabbath.   When you remember the Sabbath, what are you remembering? You are remembering that God has already completed everything He has promised. So if you are stressed out from serving the Lord, consider that your stress is from working so hard to bring the manifestation of His promises that you are doing your own works—not the works He has completed.   Yeshua said that He could do nothing of Himself. He only did the works of His Father. And He told us to learn of Him. When we do that, we will find rest for our souls. We need to come to Christ and learn of Him because He knew how to be in God's rest. And we need to know how to do that. Let us change our approach. Instead of being those who are struggling and straining to do the will of God, let us be those who are bringing into this moment all that God has already provided.   Key Verses:   •       Matthew 11:27–30. “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” •       Jeremiah 31:25. “For I satisfy the weary ones and refresh everyone who languishes.” •       Hebrews 4:1–3. “We who have believed enter that rest.” •       Psalm 95:9–11. “Your fathers tested Me, they tried Me, though they had seen My work.” •       Matthew 4:5–7. “It is written, ‘YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST.'” •       Hebrews 4:9–10. “The one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works.” •       John 5:19. “The Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing.”   Quotes:   •       “When you look at the world, it's languishing right now. We should be the ones who are imparting the refreshing of God's presence. But we can't impart what we don't have.” •       “God gets angry when you test Him. Why? Because we should already know He's God. We should already absolutely know beyond a shadow of a doubt who He is and what He is capable of in our lives.” •       “What do we remember on the Sabbath? We remember that everything we need, everything we're believing for is already done.”   Takeaways:   1.    We are not supposed to be weary, under a heavy burden, and stressed out in our walk with God. Yeshua is saying, “All you who feel this way, come to Me, and learn a new way. Learn a different approach. Learn of Me because My yoke is easy.” 2.    This is necessary for us because the longer we walk with God, the more our tendency is to say, “I believe. But can God really do what I believe?” We have seen enough in our years of walking with God that our faith in Him should be absolute. And we must not put God to the test like those who failed in the wilderness by challenging His ability. 3.    It is all about the Sabbath. The Sabbath was established because God finished His work. And we must come to the realization that everything God is going to bring is already done. We should not be praying for God to do things in the future. We should be manifesting His finished work.  

Text: Philippians 2:3-8 Theme: This message introduces "Metanoia," a Greek word meaning "change of mind" or repentance. It challenges us to shift from a self-centered mindset to one that places God at the center of our lives. Drawing from critical scriptures like Philippians 2:3-8 and Romans 11:36, the message emphasizes that life, faith, and even our struggles are not about us but about glorifying God. By embracing humility and recognizing God's sovereignty, we find true peace and purpose, moving from self-focused living to a life that lifts up the name of Jesus. Key Verses: Matthew 16:25 (NLT) If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it.

Pastor John Ryan Cantu brings this week's message, “Divided We Stand." Key Verses: Matthew 10:34-39 ESV: ““Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.”  Matthew 12:25 ESV: “Knowing their thoughts, he said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.”  Matthew 10:5-7 ESV: “These twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles and enter no town of the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And proclaim as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'” Sermon Topics: Unity, Commitment, Sacrifice If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe and share it with your friends on social media.

Worship leader Leah Rios brings this week's message, “Forgiveness.” Key Verses: Matthew 18.21–35 NKJV: “Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, ‘Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.' Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. “But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!' So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.' And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?' And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. “So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.” Ephesians 4.32 NKJV: “And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.” Psalms 103.12 NKJV: “As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.” Isaiah 1.18 NKJV: “Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.” Luke 6.45 NKJV: “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” Psalms 139.23 NKJV: “Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;” Jeremiah 17.9–10 NKJV: “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.” Luke 23.34 NKJV: “Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast lots.” Sermon Topics: Forgiveness, Restoration, Healing If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe and share it with your friends on social media.
