HOSEA 4:6  My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge,
God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. The knowledge they lack, is a knowledge of God!
The saddest part is, God's very own people don’t know Him simply because they reject a true knowledge of Him and substitute it with religion, tradition and lip service. The worst part of it all is, if you don't know God, you can never come to a true knowledge of yourself.  Join in with us today as we look into what the Bible has to tell us regarding this topic

Growing our inner man as we connect with God's Word

ISAIAH 55
8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts higher than your thoughts.
10“For as the rain and snow come down from heaven, And do not return there without watering the earth, Making it bear and sprout, And providing seed to the sower and bread to the eater, 11 So will My word be which goes out of My mouth;
It will not return to Me void (useless, without result), Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.   

Like the rain and snow accomplish a purpose Bringing about productivity and growth Every seed represents potential therefore, Seed to the sower is a promise to them that there will be more seed to sow, an ongoing, continuous growth to their supply of seed. Bread to the eater is a promise that all their daily needs will be met. Everything God does has a purpose , nothing He does is without purpose.  God is saying his word is productive, His word causes growth and productivity and His word will accomplish His plans and purposes in your life

Exodus 34:14 Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

“Religion today is not transforming people; rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society; it is descending to society’s own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender.”  AW Tozer

    When we compromise The Word, We're not in agreement with The Word and therefore not in agreement with God. (Amos 3:3) Quite often we reduce our demands upon The Word and change our opinion regarding the truth of The Word, and thereby agree with friends, family so called experts or google. Compromise comes in many forms and like a serpent, is often very subtle.

     However, there should never be compromise on the essentials of our Christian faith, Things like the infallibility of the Word, The Gospel of the Kingdom, The Lordship and authority of Christ, personal convictions regarding our faith in Christ and moral issues as defined in the bible. Thanks for joining us for this week's message. We pray it will be a blessing to you.

Matthew 11
28 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and 
I will give you rest.
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and 
you will find rest for your souls

As born-again Christians, we may find it difficult to honestly admit we’re not rested in Jesus, but the fact remains you and I need rest and, in the world, today, in our society, rest is not easily found.  
However, in relationship with our Father God, rest is available for all of us to receive and in the preceding verse of scripture, Jesus promises this rest if we will follow three steps: come, take, and learn. 
The question we all must ask ourselves is, "have I found a place of rest in Jesus Christ?"  and if our honest, truthful answer is “no,” then we have to ask, “ how do I get to that place of rest?”  We pray this message will help you to receive the rest, Jesus died to give us

Romans 8:15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

Slaves often live in fear of their masters, and that is not the relationship God wants from us. No, Paul insists, God gave us the Spirit of Adoption as His children. In other words, God legally changed the status of those who come to Him by faith in Christ to sons and daughters. 

“The remarkable thing about God is that when you fear God, you fear nothing else, whereas if you do not fear God, you fear everything else.” – Oswald chambers

Thanks for joining us for this week's message as Pastor Art touches on the different forms of fear and the differences between them and the fear of the Lord.

 As we walk the road of life, the Word of God makes our steps clear. In other words, we would not know where to step without the guiding light of God’s Word.

The bible tells us we should walk in the light as Jesus is in the light, we should walk just as He walked and if we live by the Spirit we should walk in the Spirit, walking by faith and not by sight. However, none of these ways of walking are possible without God’s Word as a lamp & the thing about a lamp is, it must be lit, and the flame that lights the Word of God is the Holy Spirit.

Let’s get into this week’s message as Pastor Art teaches on Thy Word is a Lamp unto My Feet

GENESIS 1:28  God blessed them; and God said to them, “be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
DEUTERONOMY 30:19  This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live

The Word “Bless” Or “Blessing” Occurs More Than 410 Times In The Bible; The Word "Curse" Occurs Nearly 160 Times. In Other Words, The Bible Has A Great Deal To Say About Both. In Fact, the Bible tells us that Jesus Had To Be Made A Curse So That We Might Be Redeemed From The Curse And Receive The Blessing. 
However You Might Be Surprised To Know That The Primary Definition Of Blessed Is Not Wealth Or Comfort, But Rather “Being Made Holy.” 

Thanks for joining us for this week's message as Pastor Art gives us further insight on what it means to be Blessed

Joshua 24:15 as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

God is the architect of family. His original intent was that mankind would be His family, living in close, intimate fellowship with him. It's no wonder that these days we're  seeing  an increased attack on the family and the Body of Christ family of believers, because the devil knows that our strength lies in our ability to maintain healthy families, both in our homes, and spiritually as children of God

Join with us today as Pastor Art shares with us on cultivating the  continuous, enduring presence of God in our homes and the House of God.
