Today, Pastor JD brings you Jesus’ clear warning: do not fear those who can only kill the body. Instead, fear the One who has authority over your eternal soul. This isn’t meant to terrify you but to set your priorities right. When you fear God first, you’re able to live for Him above the threats or demands of anyone else.

In the life of Job, the enemy had to ask permission before he could do anything. In today’s message, Pastor JD explains that Satan is not free to do whatever.

In today's message, Pastor JD explains that you can be firmly anchored in the Lord and still find yourself overwhelmed by emotions. If you shift your focus away from Christ and onto your circumstances, you can begin to sink. The key is where you fix your eyes. Looking to Christ is what keeps you from sinking.

Have you ever wondered why the king’s advisors couldn’t pin anything on Daniel? It’s because Daniel chose to follow God's guidance rather than the rules set by mankind.

In today's message, Pastor JD explains that God holds your very breath in His hand. And He continues to give you that breath, second after second. Even when you have used that same breath to pursue other things or turn away from Him, He still sustains you. That is incredible mercy and entirely undeserved grace.

How quick are you in a crisis to turn to every person for help except the One who can actually do something? Today, Pastor JD describes when Belshazzar did just that.

Spiritual attacks are scary. The closer you are to God, the higher on the enemy’s target list you are. Never fight that battle alone; the Church is a community that will stand alongside you.

It may not be easy, but God will provide a way where there is no way.

Pastor JD today discusses the purpose of prophecy. God didn’t put prophecy in His word for fun, or for casual, light reading, but as a warning and a heads-up for us! God desires to see us prepare for the coming days – challenges and blessings included – so that we may share the Gospel effectively with as many people as possible!

Sometimes we read about the heroes of the Bible and think they were on a completely different level than us. Today, Pastor JD will explain to you how they were ordinary people: imperfect, weak, and often afraid. The difference was that God used them anyway. And the same God still delights in using imperfect people today.

It’s tempting to take credit for our successes, our talents, or the good things happening in our lives. But every good gift comes from God. Pastor JD will talk to you today about giving God the glory He alone deserves for what He’s done. The strength, wisdom, and opportunities you have are because of Him.

Pastor JD concludes our longest series, DAVID, with a challenging message on living with David's ontology.

We hope this message blesses you and helps you live better. For more about ConnectCommunity, visit: https://www.connectcommunity.org
