Costly Worship

There is no worship without sacrifice.  Think about it!  It is all over the Bible.  God is honored when we worship Him in a costly manner.  Even David knew this and said, “I will not give to God that which costs me nothing!”

In these messages we continue to learn that we are called to minister to God and discover what blesses God.  Let God draw you deeper.

Ministering to the Lord

We are not only called to minister for the Lord but to the Lord. Our primary calling is to know and love God.  In fact, we find our identity and purpose when we put Him first and honor Him.

In these messages, the Lord is teaching us what blesses Him.  We often think of our own needs and wants; but do we really consider what God wants?  Let God draw you deeper.

Action Sunday

We often want the promises of God to come instantly without any obstacles; we wish we could see the fulfillment without the struggle.  But people of faith know that is not how it works.  God gives us promises because He knows we need them to endure; He gives us a vision of the future because we can’t see it yet and need the hope to keep going.

In this message, you will be encouraged to rise up and move into your promised land.  For our church’s vision, that means rising up together.  Joshua wasn’t called to take the promised land by himself; he was simply the leader who empowered and coordinated a the people of God for a move of God.  The same is true of our church and our mission to reach our region: it will take every person doing their part.

Vision Sunday 2018

God has something in His heart for our future and He shares it so we can believe Him, get into alignment, and move forward.  If we don’t have a vision from the Lord, how can we know what to invest our time and energy into!?   In this message, listen to the vision God has given The Rock, how that vision is manifesting in St. Louis, and how you can partner and support this move of God.  I believe this will encourage you and help you tune your spiritual ears to hear God’s heart and vision for you in 2018.

Led by the Spirit

You won’t be able to fulfill your calling in the flesh, in your own limited ability.  God’s promised blessings and your calling can only be realized through the favor and power of God, as God says, “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit”–Zechariah 4:6.

We often face obstacles, problems, questions, insufficiencies and we don’t know what to do.  The heart of God is calling out, “I want to help you.  I have the answer to that problem.  Ask Me and I will show you what to do.”  God promises: “Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know”–Jeremiah 33:3.

In this message, we unpack the importance of walking in the Spirit and the consequences of not.  As we observe the life of Joshua, we will see he is a great example of this.  I think you will be both encouraged and challenged.  Enjoy!

 

Breaking Fear

What holds you back from entering into your promises, realizing your potential, fulfilling your calling?  I have found it is most often fear–paralyzing fear.  Fear is often why we hide, why we compromise, why we settle, why we run, why we give up.

So how do you overcome fear?  In this message we find out how to break the power of fear in our lives so that we can enter into God’s promised land for our lives.  2018 can be your best year, but you will have to make some changes and align with God.

Here is a sneak peak: when fear speaks to you, you will need to speak to it.  That’s right!  Fear has a voice.  It is time for you to find yours.  Get ready to learn how to use the sword of the Spirit.

Enjoy!

 

Move Forward

In this series, God is preparing us to enter into our promised land this year.  God is using the words He spoke to Joshua to encourage us to rise up and take hold of our territory from God.  But, there is something that stops most from entering in: fear.  It is the one thing that can keep us paralyzed.

Between you and your promised land is always a Jericho.  

So what will you do?  Will you stay and hide in the wilderness or will you rise up and enter into your promised land?  In this message, God will break the fear that has been holding you back from your destiny.

Enjoy!

Enter Into His Word

There are times to receive a promise; there are times to wait on a promise; and there are times to rise up and enter into a promise.  God wants 2018 to be a time of entering in.  It is time to take hold of your territory, to enter into your promised land.

In this series, we hear God’s word to Joshua to receive both promises and principles for us.  God’s word will prepare you to possess your land.  If you are going to enter into your promised land you will first need to enter into God’s word, because His word contains the instructions, truths, wisdom, grace, strength, confidence you need.

Let this message encourage you to seek the Lord this year, entering into His word so you can enter into your promised land.

Enjoy!

The Gift of Peace

Christ our solid hope; our perfect love; our defying joy; our Prince of Peace. Christ is THE Gift of God–the Light of the world, the bright and morning star, our Immanuel.  And this Christmas Jesus is giving us the gift of His presence, filling us with His fullness.

Receive the peace of God, rest for your soul through this message.

Enjoy!

 

The Gift of Joy

The joy of the Lord is not the joy of circumstance or the joy of emotions.  The joy of the Lord, the joy of our salvation, is a gift from God beyond this world.  It is resurrection joy that defies circumstances.  It is joy before you see the results.  It is the victory before the victory.  Receive the joy of the Lord in this inspiring, prophetic message.  Let Jesus give you joy by the power of the Holy Spirit.
