Paul's first visit to the Thessalonians (in Macedonia) was perhaps around 51 AD. The letter commenced with “grace” (Greek'charis' – love) and “peace” (Hebrew'shalom' – wholeness, or peace), which come from God, our Father. As a group of Christian believers the Macedonians were severely persecuted, like their fellow Jewish believers in Judea – many of them being put to death for their beliefs. The Thessalonians were, however, extremely generous in financially contributing to Paul's preaching – especially the Philippians. The central message of both letters is the second coming of Jesus Christ to set up the kingdom of God on earth. Every chapter of both letters refers to this – some chapters containing several references (in the Bible we find over 500 references to the second coming of Jesus Christ). Their love and labours for the Truth were exemplary to all believers. Note verse 9 refers to their belief in “the Living God” and cites not only the verse in Jeremiah 10:10, but the whole context of Jeremiah 10 was relevant to the situation of the Thessalonian believers. Chapter 2 speaks of the love of Paul, Silas, Timothy and Titus among them. Interestingly the name Titus means “nurse”, or “rearer”. Paul worked to support his companions' needs and for the preaching of the gospel. The Apostle commends the believers for their patience in suffering persecution. Finally he expresses a desire to see them again and says that in the day of Christ's coming their acceptance of the gospel would be his victor's crown (Greek ‘stephanos').

Brian had been with the heart specialist for more than an hour. His friend remained in the waiting room, praying for wisdom and healing for his ailing friend. When Brian finally returned to the waiting room, he showed him the pile of papers he’d received. As he spread them out on a table, he discussed the various options being considered to treat his threatening condition. The two discussed the need to pray and ask God for wisdom for next steps. And then Brian said, “Whatever lies ahead, I’m in God’s hands.” King Hezekiah “spread [a letter] out before the Lord” (2 Kings 19:14). The words in the letter didn’t address a threatening medical condition but the threat of a powerful enemy—Assyria—that had seized all the fortified cities of Judah and was preparing to attack Jerusalem, its capital. Hezekiah prayed, “You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. . . . Now, Lord our God, deliver us” (v.19). Soon the prophet Isaiah sent a message to Hezekiah, telling him, “The Lord . . . says: I have heard your prayer” (v. 20). And “that night” God destroyed the Assyrian army (v. 35). Whatever you face today, spread it out before—bring it to—God. As you “present your requests to God” (Philippians 4:6), He hears you and is with you. You can rest in His hands as you experience His wisdom, love, and hope.

Have you ever caught yourself scrolling through social media, convinced everyone else's life looks better than yours? That their relationships seem more fulfilling, their careers more successful, their spiritual journeys more meaningful? The truth is powerfully simple: the grass isn't greener on the other side—it's greener where you water it.In this milestone 200th episode celebrating five years of ministry, we dig deep into the dangerous illusion of comparison that steals our joy and blinds us to God's unique blessings in our lives. Drawing from Galatians 6:7-9, we explore how what we sow today determines what we'll reap tomorrow. When we focus on nurturing our own lives rather than envying others, we discover the fruits of our labor blossoming in ways that bring true fulfillment.Through biblical wisdom and practical insights, we examine three critical aspects of this journey: understanding the deception of comparison, recognizing the importance of nurturing what God has already given us, and learning to plant seeds of faith in our daily lives. The parable of the talents reminds us we're responsible for stewarding our gifts, while Paul's words in Philippians teach us contentment is ultimately a choice we make every day.What if your perfect life is already growing right under your feet? Stop comparing yourself to others' carefully curated highlight reels and start investing in your own garden. Support the show

Stress is often seen as the enemy—but what if God wants to use it for our growth? In episode 98, Drew and Tim talk with Dr. Charles Stone, a veteran pastor and leadership expert, about how stress, when understood and managed well, can lead to spiritual maturity and emotional resilience. With wisdom from Scripture and neuroscience, Dr. Stone offers practical tools and godly insight to help us stop letting stress define us and start letting it refine us.Rather than avoiding or resenting stress, we can learn to embrace it with wisdom and faith. Dr. Charles Stone shares how our brains are wired by God to respond to stress and how practices like emotional naming, metacognition, and intentional joy can help us stay grounded in God's presence. This episode reminds us that in a world driven by pressure and performance, we can find peace, purpose, and strength through surrender and spiritual discipline.Stress has two sides: the event and your response—you can't always control the first, but you can grow in the second.Naming your emotions (affect labeling) helps reduce anxiety and increase mental clarity.Think about your thinking (metacognition) to discern truth from lies and realign with God's Word (2 Corinthians 10:5).Build a “pleasure piggy bank” by savoring daily joys that strengthen your soul (Nehemiah 8:10 – “The joy of the Lord is your strength”).Prayer and surrender shift us from fear to faith, allowing God to work in our stress (Philippians 4:6-7).Pastors and leaders must release the need to please people and embrace their God-given calling (Galatians 1:10).Learn more about Dr. Charles Stone's ministry at charlesstone.comGrab his book Stress Less on Amazon

May can feel like a whirlwind of transitions—graduations, shifting schedules, and unexpected change. Today Dot and Cara talk honestly about the tension between longing for the past, trying to control the future, and learning to stay grounded in the present. Sharing Paul's words in Philippians 3, they remind us that contentment isn't found in control but in knowing Christ. Whether you're overwhelmed by change or wishing for it, grab your Bible, turn to Philippians, and lean in with us.Got a question about today's episode or something else you'd like to hear us talk about on the show?

Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

In a world full of conflict, Jesus' words **“Blessed are the peacemakers” (Matthew 5:9)** are more relevant than ever. But what does it *truly* mean to be a peacemaker? This Bible talk dives deep into God's wisdom on reconciliation, forgiveness, and how we can bring His peace into our relationships, communities, and even our own hearts.

Unity through Christ-like Humility - Philippians 2:1-11 (Sunday, 11th May 2025)1. Our unity can be found in Christ.Philippians 2:1-2 - If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit; if any bowels and mercies, fulfil ye my joy, that ye be like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 2. Humble yourself.Philippians 2:3-4 - Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.3. Follow Christ's example.Philippians 2:5-8 - Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.4. Christ-like humble unity gives glory to God.Philippians 2:9-11 - Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Big Idea:  When we stand back to back, we can't see the damage we cause or the joy God gives. Ephesians 4:25; Colossians 3:9-10 Titus 3:1-11 Romans 14:13 James 4:1-12 Philippians 4:1-3 Back to back is attack mode.  Face to face is grace mode. The post Mom, the Referee appeared first on Kalkaska Church of Christ.

Before any decision is made, one must determine the cost before moving forward. Many people are curious about Jesus and interested in following Him, but unsure if they are willing to surrender what is necessary. Jesus made it very clear what the cost is to follow Him. That cost is not anything one can do other than love Him with their whole heart which results in the denial of self. Theme verse: Luke 14:25-28Anchoring verses:Luke 14:25-28Mark 10:17-22Philippians 2:5-8Luke 14:26-28

In this passage, the Apostle Paul makes one of the most extraordinary statements of this entire letter: “Do not be anxious about anything.” Anything? I can understand saying, “Don't sweat the small stuff,” but “Don't worry about anything?”It would be easy to dismiss Paul's words if he were some lofty, ivory-towered theologian. But remember, Paul was writing this letter from prison! If anybody had reason to worry, it would be him. He literally didn't know if he would survive from one day to the next. And yet, letting go of worry was how he lived–how he survived.How is that possible? Let's see if we can find some answers by looking at three questions: Where does worry come from?What does worry cost?How is worry defeated?  1.     Where does worry come from?Your culture and history and biology can set you up to be a worrier. But we all wrestle with worry because we all have problems.An expert in this field says that worry results primarily from two things: A heightened sense of vulnerability, andA diminished sense of power.We worry because we're vulnerable and exposed and we know we can't do much about it. Conversely, where there's a decreased sense of vulnerability and increased sense of power, anxiety will be lessened.This is why Pauls reminds us to “Rejoice in the Lord.” When you have entered into a relationship with Him, you have no reason to be anxious because Someone real big is with you 2.     What does worry cost?Worry causes all kinds of physical ailments. But it also leads to a “divided mind.” That's literally what the Greek word means. Worry multiplies problems actually keeping me from finding a solution.  3.     How is worry defeated? We said earlier that when you increase your sense of power, anxiety is diminished. That's why Paul tells us, “Don't worry about anything, instead pray about everything.” Pray about the big stuff. Pray about the little stuff. If something is big enough to be in your thoughts, it's big enough to pray about. And when you do, soon you'll find a sense of God's peace settling down over you.   Text: Philippians 4:4-7 Originally recorded on January 11, 2009, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Philippians is a remarkable epistle (or letter) to the church in Philippi. In it, the apostle Paul writes on topics such as prayer, worship, Christian living, humility, unity, and the powerful work of Christ completed in us. People often recognize this book by it's many familiar passages such as, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" and "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!" to name just a couple.  This book is packed with life-changing principles, so grab your Bible and join Jerry Dirmann as he dives into the amazing book of Philippians, and helps us see how to apply this book in practical ways.   You can also join Jerry everyday on this podcast as he walks us through a chapter of the New Testament, and gives us some amazing insights and applications.

In a special Mother's Day message, we see that the real battle of life starts in our minds. Philippians 4:8 reminds us to focus on what's true, pure, and lovely—because what we think about shapes how we feel and live. When we fill our thoughts with God's truth, peace and joy begin to guard our hearts like a gentle shield.

Motherhood often feels like a nonstop evaluation of what you do or manage in a day, especially around Mother's Day. But we are reminded that, just like Hannah, a mother's identity is rooted in being seen and loved by God—not in her endless tasks or visible results.Hannah's pivotal moment was when she opened her heart to God and was reminded of her worth, not just when her prayer was answered. This Mother's Day, discover deeper comfort and worth in God's unconditional love rather than the pressure to produce or perform. Listen to this uplifting message for more insight and encouragement for moms.Scriptures Referenced1 Samuel 1:1-28, 2:1-2; John 1:12; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 2:3Key InsightsYour identity isn't found in what you produce.

Let's be honest—life can feel heavy sometimes. With everything going on in the world, and in our own lives—stress, strained relationships, tough circumstances—it's easy to lose sight of joy. It can feel like joy is something that comes and goes, depending on how things are going. But what if joy didn't have to depend on your circumstances? What if there was a kind of joy that held steady, no matter what life throws your way? God says “yes!” and tells us how through the Apostle Paul's letter of joy called Philippians. We'll study this New Testament letter verse by verse to help you learn how to find joy in life.

Scripture: Acts 1:3, Luke 24:36-47, John 14:27, Philippians 4:7. What does the sermon series "Forty Pus Ten" mean? There were forty days from Jesus' resurrection to His ascension. Pastor will focus on the convincing proofs of Jesus resurrection demonstrated in what Jesus' final words and actions during the forty days and will show us how they still speak to our lives today. There were ten days from Jesus' ascension to the Day of Pentecost. Pastor will focus on what happened on Pentecost and what that means for our Christian walk and daily lives. Jesus lives!  This is the most important event of the planet since creation! Join us and see why! Our study for today is on the evening of Jesus' resurrection. They are experiencing fear, confusion and uncertainty. They've heard some of the stories going around that Jesus was alive and risen from the grave but just days earlier they had seen Him arrested, crucified, put to death and placed in a tomb. They were not expecting a resurrection! On Resurrection Sunday morning the tomb had been found empty. As they gathered together in fear in a locked room, there was also confusion. They had heard the reports of people seeing and talking to Jesus.  There was uncertainty - how could this be true? And then, “While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.'” Luke 24:36 How is this story relevant for us today? All of us has encountered fear and Jesus speaks to us, just as He spoke to His followers that day: “Peace” Shalom. He spoke into their fears, confusion and uncertainties and He speaks Peace to each of us into our lives to our fear, confusions and uncertainties. Jesus goes on and says why are you troubled? Why do doubts rise in your minds and then He shows them His hands and feet. In effect saying that it really is Him!  He tells them to touch Him and then He eats food - He's in the flesh, He is alive. He goes on to tell them how all that is written about Him in the Old Testament must be fulfilled and as He continues it begins to become clear to their minds - Jesus opens their mind explaining the what the Scripture declared all along has been about Him. Then He goes on to say what's ahead, “He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” Luke 24:46-47 What this means for us today - because Jesus is alive it changes everything and it changes each one of us! It changes:     ⁃    How we look at life     ⁃    The way we handle difficulties, fears, uncertainty, doubts and troubles     ⁃    The way we look at the future     ⁃    What matters in life It gives us:     ⁃    A reason for living     ⁃    True living - forever! Application     ⁃    The call is personal to encounter Jesus Christ. To encounter Him and His Peace     ⁃    We are called to heed the scriptures and to listen to them. As we listen - He comes into our hearts     ⁃    We are called to experience a new mind - the Holy Spirit changes us from within. Jesus is ALIVE!  His resurrection is not only the most significant event in the history of the world, it is the most important thing in each of our lives.  No matter what we are going through - the fact that He is alive and that we by faith receive what He offers: forgiveness, hope, assurance and life forever —- that changes everything! Pastor closes with the words from the chorus of a song from Bill and Gloria Gaither. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
 Because He lives, all fear is gone;
 Because I know He holds the future,
 And life is worth the living,
 Just because He lives! Life is worth living, just because He lives!!! Now What? Learn about God at https://www.awakeusnow.com EVERYTHING we offer is FREE.

Being in Christ, Part 3  MESSAGE SUMMARY: In today's message, we delve into what it truly means to 'die in Christ.' Drawing from Philippians 3, we explore the transformative power of faith that turns our fear of death into anticipation of eternal life. The key lesson here is that for those in Christ, death is not an end, but a transition - a gateway to our true home. The apostle Paul's words in Philippians 3 challenge us to shift our perspective, viewing our earthly lives through the lens of our heavenly citizenship. This perspective challenges us to live with purpose, pressing on towards the goal of our heavenly calling. Also, this teaching encourages us to live with purpose and confidence, knowing that our ultimate destination is secure in Christ. We're reminded that our citizenship is in heaven, and that this earthly life is just a prelude to the glory that awaits us. As we contemplate this truth, we're invited to release our fears about death and instead focus on living fully for Christ in the present. The message beautifully illustrates how our faith can transform our approach to both life and death, offering comfort and hope in the face of life's greatest mystery. How might our lives change if we truly embraced this eternal perspective? It's an invitation to live boldly for Christ, knowing that our ultimate destiny is secure in Him.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FORGIVEN.

Philippians 1:23, "My desire is to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far."The life of a believer is a journey through time toward eternity. Each day that passes, each trial endured, each breath drawn in this fallen world, moves the child of God one step nearer to the full enjoyment of what has been secured by sovereign grace--eternal life in the presence of Christ. For the person redeemed by the blood of the Lamb, the end is not loss, but gain. The grave is not a prison, but a passage. Death is not a defeat, but the door into everlasting joy--when faith gives way to sight, and hope blossoms into eternal delight. The Christian looks forward to this not with fear, but with longing. For to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. The anticipation of Heaven is not centered on what will be enjoyed there, but Who will be seen there. The glory of Heaven is not in its beauty only, but mainly in its King.The true believer understands that Heaven is glorious, because Christ is there. Heaven is not merely rest, but fellowship--the unhindered communion of the saved sinner with his Savior. That which is begun now by faith, will be perfected in that day when we behold His face. The Christian's joy is not ultimately in a crown, but in the pierced hand that places it upon the brow. It is not the throne that satisfies, but the One who sits upon it.The pathway to that glory is often darksome. God, in His wisdom and mercy, weaves sorrow and affliction into the lives of His people. Yet even the midnight of suffering, is governed by the hand of a loving Father, and every moment of pain has a divine purpose. The believer, upheld by the Spirit, walks through th

Andy's talk form the Sutton service examines the Philippian church in Acts 16, emphasizing its focus on reaching the unchurched. Diverse individuals found faith, a desire for the present church. Recent UK trends show openness to faith. The sermon urges prayer, as salvation is God's work in spiritual battle, and action within our current context, mirroring historical examples. The call is to pray for five non-believers and share faith where we are, trusting God for transformation.

Paul prays for the Philippians, his partners in the gospel.

The Growth Mindset in a Christian Context Paul challenged believers to put effort into their spiritual life. Change is a part of growth and we should desire to be more like Jesus. A Christian is filled with the Holy Spirit who is working to make us like Jesus. Change will happen. The joy is that we can embrace it and benefit from working with God instead of against Him. A growth-minded believer: Welcomes challenges as opportunities for sanctification (James 1:2–4 NKJV). Perseveres under trial, knowing endurance produces spiritual maturity (Romans 5:3–5 NKJV). Seeks feedback and correction, recognizing rebuke refines faith (Proverbs 27:17 NKJV; Proverbs 12:1 NKJV). Celebrates others' growth, rejoicing when fellow believers flourish (Romans 12:15 NKJV). 2. Discipleship and the Great Commission Jesus' charge to “make disciples” frames our growth-oriented calling: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” —Matthew 28:19–20 (NKJV) A growth mindset fuels the “teaching” phase: we believe learners can grow in knowledge, obedience, and Christ-likeness. It also shapes our own approach, as we accept that our skills in evangelism, teaching, and mentoring improve through practice, prayer, and reliance on God. 3. Spiritual Growth is a Process Scripture depicts growth as a journey: “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” —2 Peter 3:18 (NKJV) “Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection…” —Hebrews 6:1 (NKJV) “I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” —Philippians 3:14 (NKJV) These passages underscore that maturity takes intentional effort—exactly the outworking of a growth mindset in the spiritual realm. 4. The “One Another's” and Growth Mindset Command Scripture (NKJV) Growth-Mindset Connection Love one another John 13:34–35 Encourages perseverance in relationships even when hard. Serve one another Galatians 5:13 Builds humility and stewards gifts for others' growth. Encourage one another 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Puts others first. Admonish one another Colossians 3:16; Romans 15:14 Welcomes correction for mutual sanctification. Bear one another's burdens Galatians 6:2 Cultivates perseverance and compassion. Spur one another on Hebrews 10:24 Motivates toward good deeds and spiritual progress. Pray for one another James 5:16 Invites God's transforming power in growth. Be kind and tenderhearted Ephesians 4:32 Gives mercy to those who need it, we all do! Together, these “one another's” form the relational soil in which a growth mindset flourishes—each believer both a learner and a teacher, giving and receiving grace, correction, encouragement, and accountability. 5. Practical Implications for Disciple Makers Model a growth mindset by sharing your own struggles and progress in Bible study, prayer, or ministry skills. Set incremental goals for disciples (e.g., memorizing Scripture, leading a small group), celebrating small wins to build confidence (Zechariah 4:10 NKJV). Cultivate “one another” rhythms in your church—regular accountability groups, prayer partnerships, and service teams. Teach the biblical process of growth—explain that sanctification involves trials, correction, and perseverance, rooted in passages like James 1:2–4 (NKJV) and Hebrews 12:11 (NKJV). Encourage reflection—have disciples journal progress, confess weaknesses, and plan next steps, reinforcing that effort and dependence on Christ yield transformation.   **(00:00) END PART 1** **(27:00 – 5:00) BEGIN PART 2**   The Holy Spirit reshapes how we think about challenges, our own abilities, and the process of sanctification. 1. Confess Fixed-Mindset Thinking and Renew Your Mind “I can't change,” “I can't do that.” and the like are big hinderances to spiritual growth. Lies need to be brought into the light and exchanged for truth. The question should be, “What is God doing? What does HE want me to do?” God empowers His people for His work. “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” —Romans 12:2 (NKJV) Practice: Keep a “mindset journal.” When you catch yourself thinking “I'll never grow in this,” write it down and pray: “Lord, show me Your truth here.” Replace it with a Scriptural affirmation (“I can grow by God's grace”—Philippians 4:13). 2. Meditate on God's Word Daily A growth mindset flourishes when immersed in truth. Scripture both reveals God's power to change us and gives the roadmap. Read, Think Deeply about,and put it into practice. “…but his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night.” —Psalm 1:2 (NKJV) Practice: Start with 5–10 minutes each morning reading a short passage (e.g. one chapter of Proverbs or the Gospels). Ask: “What does this teach me about God's promise to strengthen me?” 3. Pray for Wisdom and Perseverance Growth requires divine enablement—both insight and the grit to keep going. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally…” —James 1:5 (NKJV) “Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.” —James 1:2–3 (NKJV) Practice: Begin each day by asking God for wisdom to see opportunities for growth and the patience to endure them. When trials come (at work, in relationships, in ministry), thank Him for the refining work He intends. 4. Engage in Christian Community Even if attendance has been spotty, intentional fellowship is vital for encouragement, accountability, and skill development. “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another…” —Hebrews 10:24–25 (NKJV) “As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” —Proverbs 27:17 (NKJV) Practice: Commit to attending at least one fellowship gathering (Sunday service, small group, men's/women's Bible study). Ask a mature believer to meet monthly as a “growth partner” for prayer and feedback. 5. Set Small, Measurable Goals for Spiritual Disciplines SMART goals Growth rarely happens overnight. Incremental victories build confidence that God can grow you further. “For who has despised the day of small things?…” —Zechariah 4:10 (NKJV) Practice: Choose one discipline (e.g., Scripture memory, daily prayer journaling, service) and set a tiny goal: memorize one verse a week, pray five minutes daily, serve once a month. Celebrate each completion by recording it in your journal and thanking God. 6. Welcome Correction and Feedback A growth mindset leans into rebuke, knowing it produces maturity. “The ear that hears the rebukes of life Will abide among the wise.” —Proverbs 15:31 (NKJV) “But exhort one another daily, while it is called ‘Today,' lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” —Hebrews 3:13 (NKJV) Practice: Invite a trusted mentor or friend to give you honest feedback on your spiritual habits. When you receive correction, respond with “Thank you—help me understand how to improve.” 7. Practice Gratitude and Celebrate Others' Growth Focusing on progress—both yours and others'—reinforces a mindset that abilities can expand. “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.” —Romans 12:15 (NKJV) “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” —1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NKJV) Practice: Keep a “gratitude list” of spiritual wins you see in yourself and others. Send a quick note or text to encourage a fellow believer when they share a breakthrough. 8. Rely on God's Strength in Weakness A growth mindset isn't self-reliance; it's dependence on Christ, who is at work in us. “…when I am weak, then I am strong.” —2 Corinthians 12:10 (NKJV) Practice: In moments of discouragement (“I failed again…”), confess your weakness and ask Christ to work through it. Memorize 2 Corinthians 12:9–10 and speak it aloud whenever you feel stuck.     **(5:00 – 1:00)** Doctrine Today Jesus and His Present Ministry The Holy Spirit's Role in Disciple Making. Dispensational Baptist view of the End Times Understanding Theology is Important The Gospel and Ongoing Disciple Making Church Role in Discerning God's Will Barriers to Disciple Making Spiritual Warfare Jesus – Incarnation God's Sovereignty God's sovereignty means that God reigns over all things with perfect wisdom, power, and love, and nothing in our lives is outside His control. 1. God's Sovereignty Brings Peace in Uncertainty When life feels chaotic or unjust, God's sovereignty assures us that nothing happens apart from His knowledge or plan. “The Lord has established His throne in heaven, And His kingdom rules over all.” —Psalm 103:19 (NKJV) “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” —Romans 8:28 (NKJV) Why it matters: Even suffering and confusion have purpose under God's rule. He's not reacting—He's reigning. 2. God's Sovereignty Fuels Evangelism and Disciple-Making Because God is sovereign over salvation, we can evangelize boldly, knowing He draws hearts to Himself. “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.” —John 6:37 (NKJV) “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him…” —John 6:44 (NKJV) Why it matters: The results of disciple-making aren't on your shoulders. You sow and water; God gives the increase (1 Corinthians 3:6–7 NKJV). 3. God's Sovereignty Grounds Our Identity and Purpose You are not random. You are created, saved, and called intentionally. “Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.” —Psalm 139:16 (NKJV) “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” —Ephesians 2:10 (NKJV) Why it matters: Your life, your calling, and even your challenges are part of God's good and sovereign plan. 4. God's Sovereignty Produces Worship and Humility When we recognize God is in control and we are not, we bow in awe and dependence. “Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, The power and the glory, The victory and the majesty; For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours; Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, And You are exalted as head over all.” —1 Chronicles 29:11 (NKJV) “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. —Isaiah 55:8 (NKJV) Why it matters: Sovereignty reminds us that God is God—and we are not. 5. God's Sovereignty Guarantees His Promises Will Stand We can believe God's Word with full assurance because no power can thwart His will. “Indeed before the day was, I am He; And there is no one who can deliver out of My hand; I work, and who will reverse it?” —Isaiah 43:13 (NKJV) “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.” —Psalm 33:11 (NKJV) Why it matters: Our eternal hope is secure because it rests in God's unshakable rule.   **(1:00)** It's important for all of us to see the big picture in life. God IS working and He WILL complete His work in you. Daily remind yourself that God is drawing you to Himself and He invites you to be an active participant in your spiritual growth. Reject the lie that you can't change. See the person God wants you to be and put real effort into doing your part, trusting that God will always do His part.   – “Thank you for listening today! -If you enjoyed the show you can listen to all the past shows wherever you listen to podcasts.

Welcome to the Podcast of Southwest Bible Fellowship in Tempe, Arizona. WHO ARE WE? • We are a group of people who are committed to living the grace life as set forth by the apostle of the Gentiles, the Apostle Paul. • We come together to study our Bibles, and yes, we believe we have God's perfect Word in the King James Bible. It and it alone is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice! • We do not come together and study our Bibles for the intent of being smarter than others. We understand that knowledge for the sake of knowledge is purely vain and serves no Godly purpose. • We do come together and study our Bibles for the intent of knowing our Lord Jesus Christ and the power of His resurrection. (Philippians 3:10) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that we have been crucified with Christ; nevertheless we live; yet not us, but Christ liveth in us: and the life which we now live in the flesh, we live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved us and gave himself for us. (Galatians 2:20) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that because Jesus Christ shed His blood for us and we should not live for ourselves but for Him, who died for us and rose again. (2 Cor. 5:15) • We do not claim to have attained to these lofty goals, but we press toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

"I Have Decided to Follow Jesus" has been a popular “invitation” song since the 1970s.

What is the connection between cleansing from sin and forgiving one another? Listen to this message to learn that sin separates us from God and when we sin, as believers, we are to name our sins to God to be forgiven. In turn, we are to forgive others. Find out we are to walk in the light as God is in the light and that our post-salvation sins are not automatically forgiven after we have trusted in Christ as our Savior. Enjoy fellowship with God as we move toward spiritual maturity.

Ever catch yourself spiraling in doubt before you hit “record”? In yesterday's episode, we talked about cutting the mental clutter—but what do you replace it with?In this quick podcast-growth episode, we're diving into what happens when you clean house spiritually and mentally… and forget to fill it with something better. (Spoiler: It doesn't go well.)You'll learn:➤ What Tony Robbins and the Gospel of Matthew have in common (yes, really) ➤ 3 scriptural anchors to help you submit your podcast work to the Lord ➤How to refuel your purpose, without pressureThis is episode 3 of 5 in this week's short series to prep your heart and podcast for the Profitable Podcast Bootcamp kicking off May 13.

Connect with me here! Send me a text message! The other day…I made a video…posted it yesterday. About waking up and not wanting to do my bible reading. I just didn't feel like it. And I kept feeling the nudge to do something else instead… I LITERALLY had to battle myself and force myself to read. Now was it a HUGE  success because I read? Did God literally open the heavens and pour out fresh anointing because of my obedience? No. Could I have been disappointed? Yes…was I? No. Because obediecnce it about the heart and because God asks it of me…not because of what I can get in return. Cause ultimately it isn't about me.There are a small group of us going through the Lisa Trk bible study on Monday's and last night we were talking about King Hezekiah…and how he started out by doing the right things but because he was blessed he then turned it into thinking that HE had something to do with his blessings. He became boastful, proud and super self centered. We chatted about the fact that this is common and relatable. I mean how many times have you tried to take credit for good things in your life that you KNOW God did? I know i've done it..I've got both hands raised right now cause I'm double guilty! It's human nature to make things about ‘me' instead of God or others. That is where choice comes in. The choice to choose reading yoru Bible even when you don't feel like it. Even when the earth doesn't shake or you feel emotional after reading. The choice to build your spiritual muscles through discipline even if you don't hear form God right away or see the difference over night- just like any other muscle right? Hebrews 12:11 For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.Philippians 4:8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these thingsBe encouraged, challenged and blessed today!!Join the ROOTED Bible Study group here> https://stan.store/mrsangelapitnikoff/p/rootedGrab your downloadable scripture cards here>> https://stan.store/mrsangelapitnikoff/p/30-scripture-cards✨Come hang with me on IG- https://www.instagram.com/mrsangelapitnikoff/✨Join our FB sisterhood!- https://www.facebook.com/groups/kingdomdaughterssisterhood✨Want some fun free resources?

Have you ever tried to do several tasks all at the same time? It feels like you might get more done that way, but is that the result you get?Not even close! All you end up with is a few partially done things, so none of them can be crossed off your list.One of the easiest ways the devil can pull you away from God's plans for you is distraction, because when the enemy keeps you busy juggling multiple things, you won't have the focus to pursue what God has truly called you to.“I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 3:14Press on toward the prize.
