Good Morning,  

According to the scriptures, God does not change. Malachi 3.6.  And Jesus Christ, is the same today as He was yesterday and will remain so forever. Hebrews 3.8.  This unchanging God can and will change a life of sin and disobedience to a life of purity, righteousness and godliness, if we will cease our conformity to the world and study His word, know it and keep it,  He will transform us through Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth and the life, calling you from darkness and into His marvelous light. John 14.6; 1 Peter 2.9.  And if we remain faithful until death and we will receive the promised crown of life. Revelation. 2.10.  There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4.12.

Good Morning,  

God wants to forgive us of our sins, repair the damage sin has done in our life, transforming us into a people who can live eternally with Him.  To receive His forgiveness, we must first forgive others who have trespassed against us. See Mark 11.25.  Forgiveness comes from the heart and God knows the heart.  God wants Unity among His people (His church) so all who wear His name will have the mind of Christ, doing good, so the world can know are His disciples indeed.  This is the will of God for us.

Good Morning,  

We must be careful where we place our faith.   There is a demonic faith that believes but does no good. See James 2.  Remember Peter, when his faith weakened he began to sink, Matthew 14.31 and Jesus said to him, "Oh you of little faith, why did you doubt?"  And then there was the Canaanite woman who Jesus commended saying, "Oh, woman, great is your faith!  Let it be to you as you desire." Matthew 15.28. Therefore to him who thinks he stands, take heed lest he fall. 1 Corinthians 10.12.  Take heed, watch and pray. Mark 13.33.  The faith of the disciple must be a constant faith, a faith that cannot be turned off and on.

Good Morning,  

Paul wrote in his first letter to the church at Corinth about being thankful to God and a reason why.  "Thanks be to God who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.  Therefore my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.  Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong, let all you do be done with love."  As Christ's disciples we must be brave and strong in the work of the Lord, spreading His gospel to others for this is God's will for us.

From 1 Corinthians 15.57-58; 1 Corinthians 16.13-14.

Good Morning,  

We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.  And I am persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels, nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to to come nor height nor depth nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8..37-39.  God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5.8.  The love of Christ which surpasses all knowledge so we may be filled with all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3.19.  If we are to have the mind of Christ, then we must let our love toward others grow just as His love for us.  So let your love grow through study, knowledge and the doing of His commandments.  

Hope everyone has a great Saturday.  I am looking forward to being with you in the morning to express our love for God through worship.
