  • 19 My Grace is Sufficient
    Oct 6 2024

  • 07 Pray in Faith
    Oct 6 2024
    Prayer is communicating with God. Our attention is not to be on the prayer but on the God who hears and answers prayer. We are not to substitute prayer for faith, but pray in faith, believing God. God does not want us seeking things; He wants us to seek Him. He closes doors in our lives so that we will get alone with Him. We can pray in faith believing God, and God will hear and answer our prayers!

  • 16 Vessel Unto Honor
    Oct 2 2024
    This is message 16 in the Labour In The Church series 2 Timothy 2:20-26 Paul uses the metaphor of a great house to describe the local church, where there are both honorable (gold and silver) and dishonorable (wood and earth) vessels. The honorable vessels represent believers set apart for God's use, while dishonorable vessels represent those operating in their own strength or false believers. Paul urges believers to be vessels of honor by separating from false teaching, preparing for God's work, fleeing youthful lusts, following righteousness, avoiding foolish disputes, dealing gently with others, and focusing on soul-winning.

  • 06 Lifting Up Our Hearts and Hands to God
    Sep 29 2024
    In this world, evil men and seducers are waxing worse and worse. God is searching for a people who will pay the price in their own personal lives to please Him. Only after we are willing to confess our sin can we call out to God in prayer. The first request God desires us to make is for His will to be done. The Lord is still working on us. He is opposed to the wickedness of our world, but it is in our hearts and hands that God will first do His work.
