Living Hope | 1 Peter 1:3 | 04/06/25

In this powerful message, we explore the living hope we have through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, as described in 1 Peter 1:3. No matter what we face—pain, doubt, or uncertainty—we are reminded that our hope is not dead or distant, but alive and active.

This sermon also reflects on the lyrics of Living Hope by Phil Wickham, drawing a beautiful connection between Scripture and song. As we walk through Peter’s words and the powerful imagery of the song, we’re invited to anchor our hearts in the truth of the gospel: Jesus is our Living Hope.

🕊️ Key Scripture: 1 Peter 1:3

📖 "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." – 1 Peter 1:3

Holy Cooperation | Jeremiah 29:11

God has a productive plan for your life—no matter the situation you’re in. Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us of His promise: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."

But the question isn’t whether God has a plan—the question is our holy cooperation. Are we aligning our hearts, decisions, and actions with His purpose? In this message, we explore what it means to trust, obey, and actively participate in the work God is doing in and through us.

We Win Through Prayer | Romans 8:26-39

Prayer is the key to victory! In this powerful sermon, we dive into Romans 8:26-39 and discover how the Holy Spirit intercedes for us, how God works all things for our good, and how nothing can separate us from His love. When we don’t know what to pray, the Spirit steps in. When we feel weak, God is strong. And when we stand in prayer, we stand in victory!

As a church, we must reclaim the power of prayer—seeking God until we see a movement of His Spirit. Pray until Pentecost.
