Title: Fasting Passage: Matthew 6:16-18
Title: Lay Up Treasures in Heaven Passage: Matthew 6:19-24
As we continue our sermon series, "Teach Us to Pray, take a listen as Pastor John teaches us how to make requests of God.
We live in a culture overflowing with stuff—but starving for peace. Storage units, constant upgrades, credit-card debt, the hedonic treadmill… it all reveals something deeper: we want more, but it's never enough. Into that world, Jesus says, “Watch out for greed. Life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” (Luke 12:15) This week, Pastor David exposes the Lie of Scarcity, reveals the Truth of the Father's Abundance, and anchors us in the Hope of the Generous King—a King who became poor so that we might become rich in God.
How are your investments doing? And we're not talking about your stocks or 401K. Instead, we're talking about the investments that you're making for eternity? Matthew 6:19-24 is a familiar passage to many, yet it has a depth and richness that can shift our heart posture from seeking temporary gain to eternal reward. Listen as Pastor Rob shares the final message in our series, Investing Wisely.
Today, we will have Pastor Ed Jager leads us in worship. We will be reflecting on Matthew 6:12,14-15; 18:21-35, The Gospel of Forgiveness According to Matthew .
Where is our heart? Jesus says it is located where our treasure is. If we are going to value what is most important, then we had better perceive and understand where our treasure is. In this final message in The Generous Heart series, pastor Jeremy Writebol give us four reasons to make gospel work our greatest investment.
In this episode, we explore Jesus' teaching in Matthew 6:19–24 and discover why Gospel work is the greatest investment of our lives. From our treasures to our perspective to the master we serve, Jesus reveals what truly leads to the #Blessed life. We look at how our hearts follow what we value most, how generosity brings light into a dark world, and how choosing God over money reshapes everything about our daily lives. If you've ever wrestled with where to put your time, energy, and resources—or wondered what the “good life” really is—this conversation will help you see God as the true treasure, invite you into a sharing, helping Kingdom family, and challenge you to put Him first in every area of life.
In this sermon we conclude our series on forgiveness. We talk about the relationship between bread and forgiveness in the Lord's Prayer and what they have to do with our deepest needs and the living into the future God has made possible. May we encounter the crucified Christ raised from the dead in these words.

This message invites you into a season of seeking God with expectation. We're asking Him to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think—for our region and for the people in our lives who desperately need Christ.We're stepping into deeper unity, hunger, and spiritual well-being. We want hearts resolved to go where God sends us and ears that recognize the Spirit's voice—individually and as a church.We're praying toward real outcomes: the salvation of friends and family, bold and obedient faith, humility and renewal, deep dependence on the Holy Spirit, baptisms and recommitments to Jesus, radical joy and generosity, clear discernment of God's leading, and a growing hunger for God's presence through prayer, song, and Scripture.We believe God honors a church that depends on Him, expects Him to move, and seeks His face together.Support our mission and learn more atwww.alloflife.churchGive to the work of the gospel herewww.alloflife.churchcenter.com/giving
In this message, we discover how to practice righteousness through trusting God's caring provision for our daily needs, freeing us from worry by seeking His kingdom first and learning lessons from birds and flowers.
Send me a Text Message!"Seek first the Kingdom of God." That's our final challenge for this series. We don't use the word Kingdom very much today, but in Jesus' day they used it all the time. They understood a little bit better than we do, what a Kingdom was all about. See in a biblical sense, everyone has a kingdom. Your kingdom is whatever you control. Your Kingdom is that part of your life where what you say goes. Dallas Willard calls it "the range of your effective will." Throughout life we have this inclination to protect and maybe even expand our kingdoms. So what are your little kingdoms? You might have more than one. Some people are bold and obvious about kingdom-building; some people are sneaky and subtle about it. But we all have a little kingdom or two that we are trying to build. The question is am I living for my little kingdom, or am I living for His Big Kingdom?

Send me a Text Message!In this episode we going to focus on a promise and a challenge from Jesus. The promise is "Where your treasures lead, your heart will follow." The challenge is "so put your treasures in heaven, because your heart is made for heaven." Where your treasures lead your heart will follow. So where are you storing your treasures? Where is your heart? In the grand scheme of collecting stuff and counting stuff and saving stuff and spending stuff, whatever you do, don't lose your heart!
This episode in the sermon series, "Teach Us to Pray", provides instruction on how we should respond to God in prayer, by repenting those things not aligned with Jesus; accepting God's will and confessing our struggles.

Send me a Text Message!Sometimes we make prayer so complicated! And yes, there are depths to prayer that I may never fully explore or understand, because there are depths to God that will ever be mysterious to me. But at the same time, there is meant to be a simplicity and an ease to prayer that is the ease of a son or daughter coming to their Father, their Papa God. Stop trying to earn it. You can't anyway, but we don't come into His presence because we earn it. We come in because He loves us. We come in because it's home.Call out to him today. It may be that your prayer is nothing more than, "Daddy come here! But listen for His voice deep in your heart, He wants to be with you. Just let Father God love you.

Send me a Text Message!I believe that the most important part of Jesus teaching on prayer in Matthew 6:5-15 is the Father part. When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray hesaid, "Ok, when you pray...say Father." Much of the Lord's prayer was not all that different from the standard Jewish liturgical prayers of the day; one big difference, "When you pray, call Him Father." When Jesus lived, what he had to say about God blew away the routine categories of God-pictures. The father-truth shaped everything Jesus said and did. It certainly shaped his prayer life. But then this this amazing thing happens, Jesus passes it on to us. "Not only my Father, your Father. God is your Father." So here's my question, What if I learned to pray like his kid?
P.O.G. Daily Pause: Wednesday – Matthew 69 “This, then, is how you should pray:“‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,10 your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.Note: Ok…. This is a little different but try taking a look at the Lord's prayer as a consecration prayer. Pretty cool!

In this message, we learn to fast with sincere hearts by keeping it secret rather than performative, while seeing self-denial as a way to invest in heavenly treasure and declare our sole allegiance to God as Master.
Join us as we begin a new sermon series where we learn to pray using the model Jesus provides in Matthew 6:5-13.

Series: This Is The Church Passage: Matthew 6:19-21 November 16, 2025 www.clearcreekcoc.org
What you value is not neutral. It is steering the entire direction of your life. In this message from Matthew 6:19 through 34, we explore Jesus' call to stop living for possessions and begin living for the Kingdom of God. Jesus teaches that: You cannot serve God and mammon at the same time. Your treasure pulls your heart toward whatever you pursue. A generous, Kingdom focused "good eye" fills your life with light. A greedy, materialistic "bad eye" fills your life with darkness. Worrying over money and needs reveals the true object of your trust. We walk through how: Not valuing possessions enough to seek them, in verses 19 through 24, breaks the grip of materialism and exposes the idolatry that often hides in modern Christian life. Not valuing possessions enough to worry about them, in verses 25 through 34, frees your heart to trust your heavenly Father who feeds the birds and clothes the lilies. At the center of this message is Jesus' command: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33 NKJV. When God's Kingdom is placed first, your priorities shift, your anxiety decreases, your generosity grows, and your trust in the Father deepens. If your life has been driven by security, comfort, or accumulation, this message will challenge you and call you back to one Master, one vision, and one treasure. Watch now to understand how what you value drives your life and how to realign your heart, your money, and your worries with the Kingdom of God.
