A pure heart is transparent with an uncompromising desire to please God in all things.

Where do you turn when the troubles of this life come your way? Do you try to rely on your own strength or do you turn to the Lord?

God meets us in our brokenness.

May we live in the fear of the Lord. May God continue to show us that our idols on earth are worthless and only He is worthy of our hearts.

Today, let’s focus on this one opening line in our prayer and listen as the Holy Spirit brings to our minds all the names of God.

To reflect Jesus’ image and to testify of His attributes is to choose to be vulnerable, devoted, and authentic.

Here are a few tips to help “redeem the time.”

Be reminded that more life-changing than s’mores, hayrides, and cider is the captivating life of abundance in choosing Christ.

God saved His child, who cried out to Him.

A simple prayer for us…

We’ve been given the armor of God, and now we must use it!

Let’s take some time to pray this morning and ask the Lord how we can better serve Him through our giving and support of our pastors and staff.

Truly our spiritual exoneration only comes from our guilt/sin being covered with his Son’s innocence “doing the time” for us.

May we take the time to refocus our thoughts, plans and actions back to Jesus and His mission.

If we have the same goal, the same motives, and the same message, we should encourage and rejoice that others want to follow and do the same.

It’s time to make a change. It’s time to dig in and gain understanding.

Open your Bible. This is where you will find Jesus speaking to you today. Hear His voice.

Be filled today and then pour out all that Jesus has done for you, in you and through you.

Are you willing to follow Christ at all cost? Deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow Him daily.

God is the ultimate Promise Keeper.

It doesn’t matter what your friends say, your family’s belief system or what the world says. It only matters what you say about Jesus.

Where do you choose to dwell, in the camp of self-sufficiency or in the camp of life?

What are you seeking, and are you looking in the right place?

Not only did Jesus experience the hills and valleys, but He promises to be with us as we travel this earth. Whether we are on the mountain top of victory or feeling defeat in the valley, God is with us.

Let’s learn and imitate the Master teacher. The only one qualified to throw a stone…didn’t.

Learning is good, but what will you do with it?

We too can go to Jesus and beg for His help just as the disciples did, but we must have faith that He is in control.

The time is coming for His return and He will call His children home. You will not be left behind if you are a part of God’s family.

For the Christian, it is vitally important to recognize our shape and allow The Potter to create a masterpiece that only He can visualize in our round lump of clay.

His love is for all people. His gift of salvation is for every man, woman and child, no matter their age, background, color, sex, or past. Jesus truly knew no borders. He crossed them all for us so that we could be saved.

I want to be right with God. That’s the only perfect way, and it’s through Jesus Christ.

Spend time studying your play book (the Bible), seeking instruction (prayer), and exhibiting sportsmanship (service) that is easier to spot than your eye black.

Seek Christ. Go to Him in prayer and read His word. Our decisions should always line up with His direction in scripture.

Sometimes we use prayer as an excuse for inaction.

Sometimes even the easiest lessons can be the hardest to learn. Far too often, we are focused on the mistakes and sins of others that we don’t even recognize our own need of repentance.

God is not looking merely for human improvement, He wants a commitment of surrender; one that will be more than reactions to commands and more like responses His love.

So, what’s your response today? What path have you chosen and would you say it’s worth it?

Like these 12 men did, drop everything and follow Him. And He can use you to turn this world upside down.

God is the creator of all things, which gives Him all authority.

This man came for healing, something he wanted desperately. But he left with far more than that. He left with what he needed. His sins were forgiven!

If you are searching for a friend, let me assure you, there isn’t a greater one than Jesus.

King Asa’s story shows us that when we have a heart to get to know God, we will find Him!

The power of the Lord is present to heal. To heal your brokenness from sin. To heal the gaping wounds that feel as if they will overtake you. To heal your pride, your fear, your pain.

Our God-given desires must be submitted to God’s authority.

When we obey God’s voice, He will greatly reward and bless us far more than we can think or imagine.

To commune with God in the stillness of the morning renews our weak, broken and feeble spirit.

Our reasonable and right response should be to serve our Lord with our life out of gratitude for the incredible gift He has given us.

You no longer have to fumble your way through the dark, searching, full of fear of what might be hiding and waiting to destroy you. There is a light, and His name is Jesus.

I want to be His biggest fan. I want to share His name with others so that they may believe, too. I want to, do you?

Allow God to teach you – to mold and shape you- and when the fire comes, you’ll know God’s getting ready to use you. Rely on Him and His truth, a solid foundation, to get you through.
