The Blessed Life can be defined as the following-- Having the supernatural power of God working for you (on your behalf).In order for that to take place there are certain principles that must be put in place.God must be FirstThe first portion (The TITHE) belongs to Him.Listen as we discover the importance of putting God first in our lives. AND IT"S NOT JUST ABOUT MONEY! Follow along with this series and watch God change your life!

Is it in God we trust....or in Money we trust?So subtlety Money can steal our trust mainly in these 2 ways-Convincing us that it can bring happiness.That if we have enough....we'll have security.We must refuse to be swayed and make sure God is the ONE we TRUST!

Unfortunately many people today no longer see the need for church.....Why Church? What's the big deal about it? Why bother going? I haven't got time for it.....(the list continues)Here's a new thought- What if church needs you? Could it be that something God wants done is being ignored because you are not ministering and using your gifts in church?If you feel you are not good enough- you are exactly what He is looking for!

Doesn't God want me to be happy? Of course He does, but not if it involves sin and compromise!God is not just some glorified ATM machine- that if you give enough money....pray the right prayer.....live the right way- that He HAS to deliver and do what we ask.God doesn't want us to be happy....he wants us to be more than happy- BLESSED!

Deception has not only come against the church, and against us personally.....it is also waged against the family unit.Watch on TV the image of the family- it's not a pretty picture. Parents are depicted as being clueless and non-existing. Children as rebellious, disrespectful and out of control.....and that's what is being communicated to our children!It's time to make a stand- and say 'As for me and my house, we WILL serve the Lord!'

If we truely believed in God......we wouldn't worry (end of story)But because we do worry- doesn't mean we don't love God, or desire to live for Him,or that we don't have any faith......it just means we are robbing ourselves from the relationship we could have with Him.As our level of intemacy rises.....these other things such as worry will disappear or at least have less of an effect upon us!

There are many words thrown out there today, many opions floating around.......but what does God's Word say? We need a Word from God.No matter the circumstances and situations, His Word will always steer us in the right direction. His Word will always be the right answer.....it will never return void!We may not have all the answers- But that's ok, because God's Word does!

How many of us say we believe in God.......but honestly don't believe He can change us? Instead of believing the truth, we have believed a lie.I'll never change.I'll never be freeI'll never lose weightI'll never be any different.We've all said those words......and believed the lie that they are.With man things may be impossible, but not so with God. With God all things are possible......and that includes your change!

We cannot afford to celebrate our INDEPENDENCE too long, because we're engaged in another war. This time the battles cannot be fought with guns and bombs.......it's a spiritual battle against this Nation.So where do we fit in? What must we do?

When we mention FORGIVENESS what comes to mind?Why is FORGIVENESS such an issue for us?Why is it hard to FORGIVE?Is it important to FORGIVE?Listen as we discover exactly how God's Word answers all those questions (and MORE) and why it's a COMMANDMENT for us to forgive. In other words......WE MUST!
