Are you spiritually lukewarm? The enemy of your soul can blind you to the truth of God with empty hopes and lies. When anything supersedes your love and passion for Jesus, you become spiritually poor. But Jesus is pursuing you! Is your heart open to Him?

Sometimes, God uses situations in our lives to discipline us when we go off course. He rebukes those he loves to awaken us spiritually. The letters to the churches in chapters 2 and 3 of Revelation are a warning for us today.

We need to look deep into our hearts, repent and recommit our love for Jesus and the truth of the Gospel. Let us open the door of our hearts wide and invite Jesus in.

Jesus knows the intense pressure you’re facing, the trials, suffering, and afflictions. He also knows your faithfulness. Sometimes fighting the spiritual battle before us can become so consuming that we take our spiritual eyes off God. Let us not be fooled or seduced into thinking spiritual compromise or watered-down values are OK or acceptable to God.

Listen to the Spirit of God, be spiritually “on guard,” and press in: Choose today to be an overcomer, practice spiritual discipline and be guided by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. Passionately seek the love of God and share it with those around you.

Pray, trust the Lord, and walk in faith. Always remember God is in control no matter how things may appear. People will take notice and listen when they witness your faith.

If you’re struggling, this short message from the heart is for you. Know that you are not alone even though things may seem dark and overwhelming right now, and you may feel unsure of what’s coming next.

When you find yourself in a valley or some dark place, such as a sickness or feeling depressed, a spiritual attack or a loss of some kind, it’s not the place you find yourself in that is important so much as the one who is with you.

When you are feeling down or depressed, look up and call out to Jesus. He is present in your situation.

Have you become spiritually complacent or lazy? Don’t underestimate the enemy; be spiritually vigilant and on guard against attack.

Are you spiritually asleep at the wheel? Jesus knows your name and is concerned about you. He warns about spiritual complacency; this sermon shows us His “prescription” to stay spiritually healthy.

Be alert, seek God daily, keep the faith. Be the overcomer you are called to be.

Has tolerance caused spiritual compromise? Faith, obedience, and love for God will guide you to persevere.

If you’re really honest with yourself, have you begun to tolerate sin? Simply ignoring sin is not enough. If Satan can get you to compromise in one area of your life, the next area will be easier. Confront sin and seek repentance; God looks at your heart and motives.

God always gives us a way out and time to repent. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to search your heart.

When you persevere in faith, hope, and love in Christ, you will grow deeper in the things of God and will accomplish great things.

Spiritually distracted or compromised? Faith and repentance are essential when facing ungodly influence.

Is there anything in your life hindering your witness? Live as an overcomer, a light on a hill that shines bright in the spiritual darkness: repent, live a life of faith, and avoid a compromised lifestyle.

Much like Pergamum, evil in society is all around us and attempting to infiltrate the church and our very souls. May we always allow the Holy Spirit to search our hearts and let us repent and turn from sin, not allowing sin or spiritual compromise to gain a foothold within our hearts.

Are you spiritually distracted? Is there anything in my life that is hindering my witness? We are responsible to act in a way that glorifies God.

When trials come: pray, trust the Lord and walk in faith. Always remember God is in control no matter how out of control things may appear. People will take notice and listen when they witness words of faith, backed up by acts of faith.

Jesus knows the intense pressure you’re facing, the trials, suffering, and afflictions. He also knows your faithfulness. Look past the tribulation to the spiritual riches in Christ. Live as an overcomer: reject sin and live a life of faith, not in fear of death.

Focus on Jesus rather than the battle. Sometimes fighting the spiritual battle before us can become so consuming that we take our spiritual eyes off God.

Are we living our lives in a way that is worthy of the gospel of Christ? How we respond to successes and struggles defines us. We cannot live victoriously if our faith remains halfhearted.

When we stand firm as believers, we are standing firm as a group of believers. To do that, we must prepare for difficult times by standing firm in faith and being grounded in the gospel. No matter what, we should conduct ourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.

Whatever the cost, it’s worth it for the gospel to be preached because the gospel of Christ changes your eternal destiny.

If you’re facing an impossible situation or you’re just tired of the constant flow of bad news, this message is for you! When you’re in a battle big or small, remember the cross to get through it all.

The cross brings love. God proved His love on the cross. That love surrounds us day by day.

The cross brings liberty. Because of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross we are free from the bondage and penalty of sin.

The Cross brings life. It is in the Cross that we find eternal life in Christ and everything God has planned for us.

The Cross was the greatest victory ever won on earth and shows us the depth of God’s love for us. Jesus loves you so much that He paid your ransom; whatever you’re facing, He will take care of it.
