Good News Church - Omaha

Only God can judge me. It is one of the most quoted phrases in our culture, but is it actually true? And does it mean what most people think it means? There is a big difference between judgmentalism and the kind of honest, humble love that actually helps people. Which one are you more prone to, and what does that reveal about your heart?

You get the thing you have been chasing, and when you finally have it, it is still not enough. That is not a personal failure. That is exactly how the system was designed. Culture promises fulfillment and delivers emptiness. Jesus promises something different: lose your life for His sake, and you will actually find it. What are your roots reaching for?

What if the feeling that God could not possibly love you right now is actually a lie your own mind is telling you? Romans 8:38-39 says nothing in all creation can separate you from His love. Not your worst day. Not your biggest failure. Not even your doubts. God's love is not a reward for good behavior. It is the foundation from which good behavior grows. Are you exhausted from trying to earn something that was already freely given?

Heaven will not look like your neighborhood. It will be filled with people from every nation, tribe, and language worshiping together before the throne of God. So here is the question worth sitting with: does the way you live, pray, and love actually reflect that vision? God's heart has always been global. Is yours?

What if the question 'Am I enough?' was never yours to answer in the first place? When Moses asked God who he was to lead an entire nation, God did not list his strengths or remind him of his potential. He simply said, 'I will be with you.' That changes everything. Stop trying to prove yourself. His grace is already sufficient.

What if the hardest season of your life is not a sign that God has forgotten you, but the very place He is doing His greatest work in you? Joseph was betrayed, enslaved, falsely accused, and imprisoned. And yet at every stage, Scripture says the Lord was with him. God did not remove the difficulty. He was present in it. Are you in a season where it feels too late? It is not. Stay faithful. He is still working.

What if the most dangerous lie you believe is not about someone else, but about yourself? Nothing is impossible with God, and that includes changing you. If you have ever whispered the words I will never change, this one is for you.

What if the most dangerous lie you believe is one you have never said out loud? Many of us are carrying false beliefs about God and ourselves that feel so familiar they seem like facts. The good news is that truth is more powerful than any lie you have rehearsed. Discover how to recognize what is running in the background of your mind and what to do about it.

*Please keep in mind, during the first 5 minutes of this service, there was a celebratory video playing, showcasing the last 90 years of Good News Church. The message begins after the video plays.

If no one ever saw your faithfulness, would you still keep going? King David spent his final years preparing materials for a temple he would never build, and God called that a legacy worth honoring. Your quiet obedience, your unseen sacrifice, your small acts of faithfulness. None of it is wasted. God multiplies what we pour out. Are you building for yourself, or leaving something behind for others?

What if the secret to peace is not getting rid of your problems but learning what to do with them? Philippians 4 gives a surprisingly practical path through anxiety, discontentment, and the weight of everyday life. The same man who wrote about rejoicing always wrote it from a prison cell. That changes everything about how we read it.
