We take a break this week from Revelation as Pastor Greg is at the pulpit and teaches from Habakkuk. The first chapter can mirror what many of us are thinking today: “God, do you not see what is going on? Are you going to do anything about it?” Pastor Greg encourages us to do what Habakkuk did. Bring your complaints to God. Share what is troubling you. Spend time alone with Him. Ask Him to speak to you. Then prepare yourself to listen to what He has to say.

Pastor Vince continues his teaching in Revelation 5 where the climax of the entire history of the human race is expressed in song. It speaks of our Savior. Towards the end of this message is also a beautiful application. “What’s the loudest music that is playing in your life? What is the song that people hear coming from you?” May you be both encouraged and challenged.

Pastor Vince continues his study in Revelation and teaches from chapter 4. We are given a view of Heaven. Yes, Heaven is real. Pastor Vince shares about the place, the plan and the possibility of Heaven. “We can become so earthly-minded that we forget about the beauty of Heaven and the security of God’s plan. There are no cracks int the glass around the throne of Heaven.”

Pastor Greg teaches from Colossians 3:1-17 with a message that God has been speaking to his own heart as he has been struggling with angst, sadness and even anger in the midst of the difficult current circumstances of our world. What are we do to when we feel these things? How do we handle them? Take a little time to listen and be encouraged.

Pastor Vince teaches from the letter to the church of Laodicea. Jesus admonishes the Laodiceans on the lukewarmness of their faith. They have become like lifeless cardboard cutouts. Yet, Jesus desires to demonstrate His love towards them by bringing life to them. “The heart of Jesus is to change us.”

Our teaching in Revelation continues with focusing on the church in Sardis in Revelation 3:1-6. Jesus admonishes them for having a stale faith and for trying to live off of the vibrant believers in the past. He is calling them to wake up and be renewed to the work of the Holy Spirit. May we learn the lesson from the church of Sardis and stay alive with our eyes fixed on the power of the Holy Spirit in our midst.

Pastor Vince continues his teaching in Revelation 2:18-29 which is the letter to the church in Thyatira. Jesus is directing them to keep their eyes on Him. Do not be distracted and lose focus. Pastor Vince also refers to Acts 1:14 where we can see how the early church had such an incredible impact. How did they? They were all in one accord and were devoted to prayer. Lord, may it be so today.
