Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Peter 4 today. Are there people in your life that are unloveable? Maybe that one coworker that gets under your skin, some random guy that cuts you off in traffic, or the older gentleman taking forever in the ATM line. How we treat these people is important for them to receive Christ. Yes, these encounters will cause suffering, but if we can extend grace to them and love them regardless of how we are treated, then our testimony will be that much more powerful. Our reactions can determine how they receive the Gospel and bring about real change in this broken and fallen world. This week, how can you bless someone else with your hospitality?

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Corinthians 11 today. Scripture has given the church 2 ordinations. The first is baptism, which we carry out a few times per year. The second one is the Lord’s Supper AKA communion. When we take communion, as scripture says, we do this to remember Him, to remember what He did and what He went through on our behalf. He was beaten horribly, whipped, stabbed, spat on, and suffocated on a cross all so that we could receive salvation. Communion is to be taken seriously, because the sacrifice was serious. So each time we take the Lord's supper, reflect on the things that you struggle with, the sins that you have committed, and reconcile that with the Lord. We don’t have to be perfect, but we are asked to be repentant and obedient. If you haven’t placed your trust in Jesus, today is the day of salvation. If you are a believer, be sure that you don’t take communion in an unworthy manner because there are real life consequences.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6:7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Corinthians 12 today. A lot of us have worked at a job that has given us special privileges and access to things that are to be used at work, but you wouldn’t be allowed to use them for personal gain. That’s how spiritual gifts work. Each of us has been given one or more gifts, and the expectation is that we use those gifts for the benefit of the Kingdom. The truth is that our spiritual gifts are needed for the benefit of others, and if we are being selfish with our gifts, or not utilizing them entirely, then the rest of the Church body suffers. We celebrate with each other when good things happen, and mourn for one another in times of loss. God gave you your spiritual gifts for a special purpose, and whatever purpose that may be, it should be to help the Church family, because they are in need of it.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Corinthians 12 today. How often do you brag about your accomplishments? It’s human nature to pat ourselves on the back for even the smallest things. But if we are relying on this strength alone, we won’t get far. Paul boasted in his weakness, because he relied on Christ for strength. If we are going to brag, it should be about what Christ did for us, not about what we did for Christ. Why do you think that God made us so weak? Because if we were strong like God, we wouldn’t need Him. You may be weak, but God calls you worthy. Humble yourself to Him, keep seeking God, and He will make you strong.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in James 3 today. Just how dangerous is your tongue? If you’ve ever said something in front of a group of people, and they get upset, can you un-say it? And what then if things escalate to physical violence? All because of something you said. The tongue can sing praises to God, pray over people, and deliver words of encouragement, but it can also curse, bring judgement, and insult others. Just like fire brings warmth and light, it can also burn down and destroy. Because of that, we are (hopefully) careful how we handle fire. As Christians, we should also be careful how we use our tongue. This week, are you going to passive aggressively insult your coworkers, argue with the customer service rep on the phone, and yell at the kids playing in front of your house, or are you going to encourage your coworkers, be polite with customer service, and let the kids play? This week, choose to speak how Jesus would speak.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 18 today. None of us are perfect. Everyday, we matrix dodge temptations, and we will struggle, stumble, and fall down sometimes. But when our actions end up causing others to stumble or struggle, watch out. God uses us through our daily lives to accomplish His will, and we have the power to save souls, or push them away. Our desire in life should always be to build up, and never to destroy. Whether we realize it or not, we are witnessing to the world, a living testimony, and how we interact with others each day will either save souls, or condemn them. There is grace and forgiveness, but at the same time, we will answer to God for our selfishness. Make wise choices this week.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Hebrews 11 and 12 today. The people we read about in the Bible share their stories of their faith, and how God's promises were fulfilled in their lives. But their lives weren't perfect, and neither are ours. We all have one thing in common and that's sin. God doesn't want us to repent for the purpose of our sins for the purpose of salvation, we can't do that, that's what Jesus was sent for. We are supposed to repent, because the sins of this world get in the way of the blessings of God. When we become Christians, we enter into a relationship with the creator, and sin just gets in the way of that relationship. When we do sin, we may end up being disciplined by God, but it's because He loves us and wants what's best for us. 

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 11 today. If you are a believer in Christ, you are going to go through hell on earth. But that doesn’t mean you should live like hell. Every time you encounter a situation that tests your faith, patience, or just makes you angry, you will likely be tempted to respond negatively. How did Jesus react? He turned the other cheek, forgave sin, and was focused on the kingdom. So if you want to follow Christ, you have to live like Him. If someone flips you off in traffic, you should pray for them. If someone leaves a mean comment on facebook or tiktok, ask Jesus how you should respond. They are just as in need of Jesus as we are. In our everyday life, our focus should be on the mission, rather than our own comfort. But if life is getting too difficult, run to Jesus, and not to anything the world has to offer.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Philippians 3 this morning. How far have your accomplishments gotten you in life? I myself have singlehandedly produced a podcast, run most of the technical stuff for our church, and from a vocational perspective, can professionally operate just about any vehicle safely. But these accomplishments and skills are useless when it comes to my salvation. No amount of computer knowledge or machine operating skills will get me to heaven. Our focus shouldn’t be what we can do for the Kingdom, but what God can accomplish through us. By standing by our own abilities, we only glorify ourselves, and accomplish very little. Walk in humility, move on from what you can do, and look forward to what He can do.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20

Galatians 6-7

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Philippians 2 this morning. Every day when you wake up, who is the first person on your mind? If you're like most people, it's yourself. Wake up, probably use the bathroom, shower, breakfast, leave for work, put in 8 hours, clock out and go home, and then more time for yourself right? How much time in this 24 hour period do we spend focused on others, whether it be their earthly needs or their eternal needs? As members of the Church, we should be working together naturally to accomplish the same goal, but most just keep to themselves, choosing to self-serve rather than self-sacrifice. Your suffering should result in transformed lives and saved souls, and not in your own destruction. We are all going to suffer, it’s how we suffer that makes all of the difference.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20
