A Sure Hope

You know to get to God you must accept Jesus and follow Him, but have you ever considered what God did for you?

Have you spent nights trying to figure out why things happened or are happening? Maybe you feel like you need to know the Bible inside and out to understand.

Have you ever experienced a great disappointment, and wondered why God would allow something like that to happen?

Every religious system is trying to find a way for man to get to God. Many systems teach you that you can get to God through your good works, but they will never be good enough. Today, Pastor Dave explains that Jesus was sent to be that bridge and a relationship with Him is the only way to God.

Have you ever gone through something that has made you question why it was happening?

You have to get behind the truth that God is sovereign and just, and He has a plan!

Whether you are good and righteous before God’s eyes has nothing to do with what you’ve done.

Jesus took on all sin so that you can be made righteous.

Have you ever had someone try to comfort you during a difficult time, but they just made it worse by saying the wrong things?

It’s easy to become so attached to the things of this world: money, careers, possessions, and even family and loved ones. In today’s message, Pastor Dave reminds you that as believers, our true home is in Heaven. You’re just passing through this world. Fix your eyes on Jesus, not on the things of this temporary world.

When you make a mistake or stumble and fall, God isn’t disappointed in you. He already knows everything you will do, and He knows that you are weak and frail. Today, Pastor Dave teaches that when you fall, God has mercy on you and helps you in your sufferings. In what areas do you need God’s grace and mercy today?

God invites us to bring our troubles to Him and pray with confidence. In today’s message, Pastor Dave reminds us we can count on God’s help. He challenges us to be persistent in prayer because God is always faithful. God desires for us to come boldly before Him with our needs and expect His provision.
