Oftentimes God works in unexpected ways, answering prayers and bringing breakthroughs in ways we would not have thought He would 🤔 one of those unexpected moments was Jesus being born in a small town, in a stable. Are we missing the way God moves because we’re overlooking the small and simple things? 🧐 God often works His greatest plans through the smallest places and the simplest moments. In Part 2 of our series we’re talking about the Peace in God’s Plan 😌

Christmas carols are more than melodies 🎶 they are declarations of hope, peace, joy, and love fulfilled in Christ 🙌 this Sunday we’re starting our Christmas series 🎄 and as we hear the Songs of Christmas this year, may we be reminded to live the truth they declare. In Part 1 we will see that for centuries God’s people longed for deliverance, and Christmas reminds us that God always keeps His promise 🙏

As we bring this series to an end, we’re going to see that God’s provision is not just for us to consume — it’s to make us generous like Him. In trusting that God will provide, we must hold what He gives us with open hands, not tight fists 🤲 let’s learn to live generously, being a blessing with what God has blessed us with 🙏

Learning to trust that God will provide for our needs requires us to change our thinking 💭 we need to move from a scarcity mindset, to one of surrender and total trust 😌 God’s provision flows from His abundance, not our limitations 🙏

If we believe that God provides for our daily needs, we must then choose to live with daily trust in Him and not daily worry 😅 this is often easier said than done, but it is possible to live in a way that shows we trust God to provide our daily bread 🤲 in Part 2 of our series we continue to be reminded that God is our faithful provider 🙏

God provides not only for our needs, but also to grow our trust and generosity 😌 when we trust Him daily, live with open hands, and give freely, we reflect the heart of the God who provides ♥️ in this series we’ll be learning to trust the faithful God who sees, sustains, and supplies — not just for our needs, but for His purposes 🙏 in Part 1 we’ll see how God’s provision often comes through moments of faith and surrender 🤲

Baptism is not a ritual; it’s a declaration 🙌 we have died to the old life and risen into a new one with Christ 🙏 God gives us a new heart (inner transformation) so we can live a new life (outward testimony) 😌❤️ in Part 2 of our series we see that salvation starts the change, and baptism declares it to the world 🗣️

Through Christ, God doesn’t just improve us, He makes us new 😌 in salvation, He gives us a new heart, and in baptism, He calls us to live a new life 🙌 this week we’re starting a two-part series on being Made New ✨ in Part 1 we’re talking about how God gives us a new heart ❤️

We recently covered dangerous prayers 🙏 but have you considered what it might cost you to pray those prayers? And what you might gain from doing so? 🤔 let’s hear from a Brazilian missionary who boldly prayed prayers of surrender, and felt God call him into action 👣 be encouraged as you hear about the power of surrender, and the blessings it brings when we live in obedience to the call 😌

We live in a day and age in which distraction and constant noise are stealing our focus and attention 😵‍💫 the reality is that the enemy doesn’t need to make us evil, he just needs to keep us busy, distracted, and divided. Are we falling for the trap? 🧐 this Sunday we’re being encouraged to remain Undistracted 😌🙏
