Jesus is Real Radio with Daniel Fusco

Remembering the faithfulness of God is so important in our lives. It causes us not only to praise Him again for what He's done, but also to place perspective on the situations we're facing now. Pastor Daniel today reminds us that moments of remembrance are all around us, and that we too can create the reminders! As you listen today, think back on what God has done in your life, and allow Him to speak into you again today!

We might just be the only witness people have of the Gospel message. How we treat others around us, how we speak, and the actions we perform in the sight of others may be the only exposure they get to God! Pastor Daniel today challenges us to become aware of this fact and practice Christian living every moment of every day! We're sharing Jesus, many times without uttering a sound, and the people around us are going to notice!

Jesus calls us to serve others, and to do so with the love of our Savior as our goal. There are times, though, that we just don't feel like serving people! We feel broken and inadequate, and unworthy of Jesus. Pastor Daniel today tells us that that's exactly when we need to serve people, in those times of brokenness! By doing so, we'll show others that we're not relying on our own strength, but on His strength to get us through!

Fear is common when difficult things arise in our lives. Fear of failure, fear of people, fear of uncertainty – these can all take control of us and cause us to look away from Jesus. In today's message, Pastor Daniel encourages to instead choose faith! Jesus has already taken care of whatever concerns us, and though we can't see how, we can be certain He'll come through for us. He loves us and takes care of us, and wants us to succeed!

In your life, there will be giants. These giants may be people, situations, or physical obstacles that get in the way of your life following God. However, Pastor Daniel reminds us today that God is bigger than any giant in your way! God has taken care of many a giant in history, literal and figurative alike! He still steps in to situations to remove the obstacles! You can turn to God in your time of trials, and allow Him to take care of the giant in your life!

God has created something unique for each of His children to do in their lifetime. This work will vary person to person, but will be equally important to the Kingdom! In today's message, Pastor Daniel encourages us to dive into the work God has given us. As we do, we can ask Him to bless the work, no matter what it is! He's the one who has given each of us the abilities to do the job, and He'll provide the strength and courage we need to do it!

Pastor Daniel shares a great truth today: God loves to partner with people! God could do so much on His own – He is God, after all! However, God CHOOSES to use the people He created to do great things on this earth! God can use anyone, to move the Kingdom of Heaven forward! Each person has been uniquely equipped by God, to be used to share God's love and mercy with the world. Only you can serve God the way He designed you to!

It's always good to take a refresher course! Today Pastor Daniel begins a journey with us through the book of Deuteronomy. In this study, we'll learn along with the Israelites their history, why it's important, and how they learned from what happened before. As we look at our own lives, it's good to refresh ourselves as well on the goodness and mercy of our Heavenly Father. He has done great things for us in the past – it's wise to remember that!

Pastor Daniel today makes an interesting observation: we will experience as much of God and the life He has for us as we want to! God has great things in store for each person, but He isn't going to force it on any of us. He gently draws us to Him, showing us the blessings that await us, but He doesn't make us choose to step onto His path! We need to be the ones to decide to follow God, and in doing so, to go all in or play it safe!

If we take nothing more away from today's message, we need to know that God's timing is perfect! Pastor Daniel will share with us today just how perfect that timing is while exploring the last part of Elisha's life. Elisha allowed God to work through Him while being tuned in and willing to follow God's agenda. We too can turn our eyes and hearts to our Creator, see Him move in amazing ways through us, and witness His perfect timing!
