Last week we uncovered the original narcissist—the father of lies, the enemy of our souls. He manipulates, gaslights, and deceives, but Jesus shows us a better way. In this message, Pastor John shares how to re-route your thinking when fear and selfishness threaten to take control. Discover how conflict often comes from our fear of not getting what we want or losing what we have, and how Jesus calls us to trust the Good Father instead of clinging to possessions, pride, or control. Through the story of Naboth's vineyard, the teachings of Jesus, and the promises of Romans 8, we learn how to live free from fear, stop reacting to threats, and walk in peace knowing nothing can separate us from God's love. Key Points: Conflict happens when selfishness collides. Fear of losing or not getting drives most of our struggles. Rerouting your thinking means choosing truth over fear. Trust the Good Father for justice, timing, and provision. Nothing—absolutely nothing—can separate us from the love of Christ. Scriptures: Matthew 5:40–42, 1 Kings 21, Romans 8:31–39, Matthew 16:24–26 If this message encourages you, don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to hear more teachings that help you build meaningful, lasting relationships God's way.

The overzealous charismatic community often embraces the law of attraction incantations, unintentionally and intentionally! Sadly, "decree and declare" statements are twisted, and many believe that speaking positive affirmations into existence can manifest desired outcomes. Is this practice truly biblical, or does it lead Christians down a dangerous path of deception? Let's examine and debunk the numerous misused Scriptures (Matthew 7:7-8, Mark 11:23-24, Job 22:28) that many fall for in the body of Christ.

In this powerful message from Matthew 3:1–12, we unpack the real purpose behind John the Baptist's ministry—and how it demanded a radical shift in Israel's perspective. John wasn't just calling for personal reflection—he was announcing the soon arrival of YHWH and the literal, physical, Messianic Kingdom promised to Israel. This wasn't some vague Greco-Roman idea of an inner kingdom in the heart. It was a national, earthly reign just as the prophets foretold. John's baptism symbolized a public commitment to believe God's message and accept the Messiah when He appeared. It pointed forward to the cleansing and forgiveness God would offer through Jesus (cf. Ezekiel 36:25–27; Zechariah 13:1). Those who believed John's message were spiritually prepared for the coming of Christ. This sermon invites you to reconsider your own perspective.

In this sermon, we kick off 2025 by focusing on the theme of "celebrate" and the importance of staying true to our church's mission and vision. Drawing parallels from the Apollo 13 mission, the sermon emphasizes the necessity of keeping our eyes on the right focus to avoid drifting off course. We explore the biblical foundation of the church, as Jesus first mentioned it in Matthew 16, and discuss the significance of being an assembly of believers on a shared mission. The sermon challenges us to be active participants in the Great Commission, making disciples and living on mission with Jesus. As we celebrate our church's 60th anniversary, we are called to unite in purpose, grow in our faith, and help others find and follow Jesus. Join us as we commit to being a church that thrives on mission and impacts our community for Christ. Scriptures: Matthew 16:13-18, Matthew 18:20, Colossians 1:15-18, 1 Corinthians 14:26, Ephesians 4:12, Matthew 28:16-20, Luke 19:10 For more information about our church, visit npfcc.org To help support the ongoing work of NPFCC and our mission partners around the globe, you can make a donation at npfcc.org/give
