Everyone has their own opinion and idea about who God is. While there is much truth in the perceptions that man has about God, nothing holds as much weight as what God reveals to us about Himself. Though simple in understanding, there is great power and direction that comes from our understanding of who God has told us He is!

In life, so much seems out of our control. We can feel helpless, overwhelmed, and outmatched - until we turn our attention away from ourselves, and place it back on Christ. What is the key to accessing this elusive confidence, and what exactly does God require in order for us to acquire it

This is the hope of our time! That the generation of the church which is rising up in this era will be the generation that says, “Enough is enough with this wandering in the wilderness of our half obedience to God! We want to go over! We will face the giants in the land! We will believe the promise of God! We will be the ones who bring Christ to the world like this generation of the world has never seen before!”
For us today, Canaan is Christlikeness! The wilderness life is the life of salvation but not surrender. It is a life of frustration, of missing something, but it is not the life we were saved to live! 

Do you want to know what childlike humility and faith are? Study Jesus. He was his Father’s Beloved Son. And there was nothing fake about him. When he laughed, when he wept, when he got angry, when he was frustrated, when he was in prayer, or when he was in a fight. He was his Father’s Beloved Son!

It is the childlike heart that opens the Kingdom of God to all who truly want to enter it and live with God, in his plan, with Him at the center. The path of Christlike humility leads us into and forward in all the "Great" ways Jesus has given us in the gospel.

The city, and thereby the people, for whom God is in the midst, at the very center, wil be the people who are unmoved, unshaken by the fear, the offense culture, or the cynicism pervading our time. The cynical person is the faithless person, they have lost the capacity to trust; other people and ultimately God. What is cynicism and how do we overcome it by living with God at teh center of our life?

MBC kicks off Missions Conference 2025 with a great message from Brother Benji Dryden, Caribbean Field Director for Baptist International Missions Inc.

Knowing God is our greatest goal in all of life, ministry, and into eternity. The pathway to knowing God is learning to "Be Still," and that not only means letting go of hurry and busyness and opening space for God to fill our schedules, and ultimately our hearts, but it also means overcoming some barriers to knowing God, which all of us must contend with. One of those is the barricade of Forgiveness. We must learn to let go of offense, bitterness, and anger so that we can know God and by that be ready to carry out the gospel mission of making Him known.

There is no other book in all the world, in all of history which is qualified as “The law of the Lord!” The word of the living God of Heaven and Earth! The same God who made the heavens which declare his glory (v.1) is the same Lord who gave us his law, or his book of precepts and statutes for life. Here, contained in this book are all the instructions of life, here is God’s way, in print, and it is settled, it will not change.

There are a whole lot of blockades in the modern Christian life to keep us from the word of God. But not one of them is a worthwhile or acceptable excuse. When we neglect the word of God, we are abandoning the greatest source of power in the universe to bring us all that we could ever dream of. So, we need a plan to help us stay in the perfect law of the Lord this year and overcome all the blockades that normally hinder us.
