The worst thing that can happen to anyone is coming to the end of your life and realizing you never had a relationship with God. Eternity is everything for a Christian because even in death you don't have any fear. But the condemnation for a nonbeliever is eternal separation from God. Today, Pastor Bill's going to point out how important it is to have a relationship with God, where you'll get to experience so many blessings here on earth, and where you won't face condemnation in eternity away from Him.

Satan will try every trick and scheme in the book to make you stumble in your walk with God. The closer you are to God in your relationship with Him, the more opposition you'll see come your way. What's the best thing you can do to face him? Pastor Bill's going to show you today that it's spending more time with God, in prayer, and in His Word. You'll be more equipped and stronger to face the stumbling blocks Satan's going to try to put in your way. But you'll never face more temptation than what you can say no to.

When you spend more and more time in God's Word, the things that God doesn't want in your life will start to surface. You might feel conviction in His Word, or He might send someone into your life to make you aware of something that needs to change. Pastor Bill's going to show you today that nobody stays the same when they come to Christ. The old ways of sin that you used to live in need to be given up, so you can fully step into the calling that God has for you. Remaining in your sin only makes you miss out on the blessings God has planned to send your way.

Do you look forward to spending time in God's Word? It's constantly taking in what He says through The Scriptures that will take your relationship to the next level. As Pastor Bill is going to show you today, God doesn't want you to begrudgingly spend time reading. He wants you to look forward to that time with Him, finding joy and comfort in His Word and enjoying the blessings that come from that time with Him. Is it something you feel like you have to do, or do you look at it as something you get to do?

Is there a sin in your life that you're struggling with, that you keep coming back to even though you know it's wrong? It doesn't have to be an overwhelming part of your life. God doesn't want it there, and if you come to Him with it and ask Him for strength to give it up so you can keep growing in your walk with Him, He'll give it to you. Pastor Bill's going to show you today that God doesn't want you to suffer in your sin, but to be free from it, to be full of joy in His forgiveness and grace.

You've died to sin when you were saved by God. You were saved from sin so you can live a life fully devoted to God, free from the guilt, shame, and condemnation that sin brings with it. The joy God will bring to your heart as you press in closer to Him is unlike anything the world could ever offer, and it's waiting for you every day. As you'll see today with Pastor Bill, it's a daily choice you need to make to not give in to the old sins you used to, but to walk in the freedom you have of being a child of God.

Every day is a struggle against the dark and light inside you. Satan is trying to make you stumble in your walk with God, and God wants you to let Him guide your steps every day. No matter what kind of temptation comes your way, you always will have the strength inside to say no. God won't let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. Pastor Bill's going to show you that there's no greater power than you can find than what God gives to you for you to live out His will for you day by day, every day.

God isn’t there to just get you into Heaven. He's so much more than that. Today, Pastor Bill's going to show you that God wants to be a part of your everyday life. You can walk with a new joy in your heart, knowing the God of the universe is watching after you and is on your side. You can walk in victory every day knowing that He saved you from sin, and has made you new. Your life should look different, as evidence of God working in your heart and giving you a joy that nothing in the world can give.

Is there anything you're worried about? Do you have stress from anything at work or at home, financially, physically, or emotionally? God promises a peace unlike anything the world could ever offer, and it's waiting for you to just accept it. God isn't just there to get you into Heaven. As Pastor Bill's going to show you today, He wants a much bigger part in your life. He wants to help you with your day-to-day life, to have a close relationship with you. All you have to do is accept it and let Him start to work in you.

If someone told you that they were promoted at work, but then continued to do their old job, you would probably be a little skeptical. If your child told you they graduated high school, but then they go back to school in the fall, you wouldn't really believe them, would you? If a significant life event has happened, you'll see change. The same is true with faith. As Pastor Bill teaches today, when you become a Christian, things begin to change. You can't stay the same when God moves in.
