1. OUR CHOICE IS BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH

Deuteronomy‬ ‭30‬:‭15‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“Now listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster.”

YOU ARE CAPABLE OF CHOOSING LIFE.

YOU HAVE THE CAPACITY TO CHOOSE LIFE.

DO YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO CHOOSE LIFE?YOUR CHOICE WILL BRING BLESSINGS OR CURSES

2. YOUR CHOICE WILL BRING BLESSINGS OR CURSES

Deuteronomy‬ ‭30‬:‭16‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways. If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to enter and occupy.”

OBEDIENCE OBLIGATES THE BLESSING OF THE LORD

DISOBEDIENCE DEFLECTS THE BLESSING OF THE LORD.

3. YOUR CHOICE WILL INFLUENCE YOUR DESCENDANTS DESTINY

Deuteronomy‬ ‭30‬:‭19‬-20 ‭NLT‬‬

“Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! You can make this choice by loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and committing yourself firmly to him. This is the key to your life. And if you love and obey the Lord, you will live long in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

MAKE YOUR ANCESTORS PROUD AND 

YOUR DESCENDANTS PROSPEROUS!

Today’s message from Pastor Janeen is centered on the story of Job and the power of perspective. We are reminded that even in the midst of life’s most difficult moments, we can recover when we hold onto faith and trust in God’s plan.

Key Points:

1. God has good things in mind for you, even when it doesn’t look good around you.

2. Fret not your heart — God has spoken to the devil concerning you.

3. Job acknowledged what was happening but still acknowledged God.

4. Job kept his position clear that God had great plans for him.

5. Speak to yourself about how God works in your favor.

6. Job believed God was aware of everything he was facing.
7. Job’s faith kept the perspective that God was in control of him and his outcome.

Pastor Janeen helps give us a powerful reminder that God promises to restore what has been lost.

Just as Job recovered from his trials, God will restore you as well, giving you a future full of hope and blessing.

YOU CAN RECOVER!

MORE THAN 34 YEARS AGO THIS CHURCH BEGAN THE FIRST SUNDAY OF JULY IN 1990.

THE OVERWHELMING CROWD OF TWENTY ONE LISTENED TO A 30 YEAR OLD PREACH A MESSAGE FROM THIS SAME TEXT.

"CAN THESE BONES LIVE?" WAS THE THEME AND QUESTION.

TODAY, I STAND BEFORE YOU TO ANSWER MY QUESTION….TO ANSWER GOD’S QUESTION……TO ANSWER EZEKIEL’S QUESTION. 

THESE BONES CAN LIVE!

Today we have the honor of hearing Guest Pastor Otis Lockett Jr., all the way from Evangel Fellowship Church in Greensboro, NC.

Pastor Otis Lockett Jr. finishes off our current theme for the month, “REST WITH JESUS” with a powerful message titled: "Your Table Is Ready."

With this message, Ps. Otis Lockett Jr. intends to get us to see God in a new way. God is many things, he's a Shepherd, but God is also a chef.

That word Chef means Chief, and every great Chef has to PREPARE, and God has great things PREPARED for you!

1. To move from Renting to Owning, attitude is everything.

2. To move from Renting to Owning, you can never be too comfortable.

- When your faith moves from “Rent To Own,” you are going to move right into the new season that God has for you, and when you do, others will be encouraged to believe by your OWNERSHIP!

YOUR FAITH NEEDS TO GO FROM RENT TO OWN...

-Renting faith says, God please let us get a house. Owning faith says, this is my house in Jesus name!

-Renting faith says, God please keep me safe.  Owning faith says, no weapon formed against me shall prosper.

-Renting faith says, God please help me figure out my purpose.  Owning faith says, I am Gods workmanship created to do good works in Christ Jesus.

-Renting faith says, God please give me strength.  Owning faith says,, the joy of the Lord is my strength!!!

-Renting faith says, God please heal me.  Owning faith says, by His stripes I am healed!

In order for you to take ownership over your life, its going to require you to move from where you are to where you want to be in Christ Jesus!

If you want rest on every side like Joshua, you have to move!!!

EXODUS 4:1-9

- DO IT AFRAID

- DO IT AGAIN

- DO IT ANYWAY

Finding REST in the W(REST)LING Match

1. Acknowledge & Understand The Burden (Don’t lie to yourself!)

2. Know That You Have Help With The Burden (Don’t Play Hero-Ball With It!)

3. ​Listen To Your Teacher!

3 things you must FLUSH OUT to receive rest.

1. THE STRESS OF YOUR NEEDS

2. UNNECESSARY DESIRES

3. UNREALIST EXPECTATIONS OF PEOPLE
