Living Faith Christian Church Sermons

If our enemy the devil is fighting against us, how should we fight back? James 4 gives us three keys to victory in the spiritual battle - submitting to God, resisting the devil and remaining holy. As God's people with the power of Christ in us, we can overcome all that the evil one may bring our way.

A continuing look at the seed sown beside the road from the parable of the sower.

Jesus' parable of the sower is his most important parable, filled with lessons on discipleship. He tells his disciples to watch for the evil one who wants to snatch the word from hearts. The devil is determined to fight against God's people - and his primary tactic is through lies. He speaks falsehood, accusations and offers temptation - and we ought to be aware and prepared to combat his lies with God's truth.

Jesus teaches about the threats against his disciple's progress and maturity by using a story about a farmer planting seed in 4 types of ground. The parable of the sower is a lesson in discipleship to Jesus. The end goal of planting the seed is not just growth, but producing fruit - the same is true about our apprenticeship to Christ.

Hear how God has been working in and through His people this last year. A closing word and prayer from Psalm 23 and 24.

One of the greatest expressions of love is just being with someone. As human history moves alongs twists and turns, a great question has been "is God still with us?" Generation after generation He has answered that question in a variety of ways - through signs and wonders, through kings and prophets. But the greatest expression of God's love and sign that He has not abandoned us is given through the sending of His son Jesus Christ.

Jesus teaches that we can be joyful even when life tells us we can't be. John 15 tells of a time when there would have been much uncertainty in the hearts of his disciples - yet he tells them they can still have joy. John 15 teaches us that joy comes from being connected to Jesus, abiding in Jesus and by bearing fruit.

Jesus promises peace for his followers, but yet we often find ourselves lacking peace. While there are a number of reasons why this might be true, our lack of obedience to Jesus is a major threat to our peace. Rather than run away from the Lord when we feel angst and worry, our conviction is an invitation to turn to him and have peace restored.

Jesus is a good teacher and lord in that he prepares his disciples ahead of time for navigating life in this evil age. He gives wisdom, warning and guidance so that we can be prepared and not be taken out by the troubles that come. Self-pity is one thing that Jesus warns against because self-pity takes our eyes off of him and onto ourselves and our situations.

Even when life is hard, God is good. God is great and powerful and near and kind. David's life models how a man focused on the LORD can endure seasons of difficulty or disappointment with a song of praise.
