2 Corinthians 6:10- sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything

My Joy is fulfilled in God when I stop my pursuit of satisfaction.

SCRIPTURE:: MARK 10: 42-45

42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 44 and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Serving Others is more than keeping up with my to-do list!
I am choosing to do something for someone else without expecting anything else in return!
My call to serve is an invitation from God for my spiritual growth!
Serving God and others is not about doing great things but about doing small things with Godly love.
Ephesians 6:7-8- " Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free."
Serving God allows us to experience His joy and peace that comes from being obedient to Him.
Serving like Jesus grows out of genuine love for our Savior and of the love and concern for people that God has placed in our lives.
Serving means I am willing to work in whatever role that will benefit others.
When I am serving God I am doing his will and doing what He has commanded me to do.
Jesus is our greatest example of serving: washing feet, feeding the crowds, healing the sick, raising the dead, and teaching the word of God.

SERVING IS A HONOR!!!

10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.

Remember my sisters and brothers, it takes GRACE TO MAKE IT!

WORSHIPPERS, CHILDREN, DISCIPLES, SERVANTS, AND FRIENDS: GOD CALLS US OUT OF DARKNESS TO HIS MARVELOUS LIGHT TO SAVE US FROM EXPERIENCING THE WORST POSSIBLE THING WE SHOULD EVER FEAR, ETERNAL SEPARATION FROM HIM. HE CALLED US TO BE WORSHIPPERS, CHILDREN, DISCIPLES, SERVANTS, AND FRIENDS. HE DOES NOT WANT US TO WALK AND LIVE IN DARKNESS, HE NO LONGER WANTS US TO BE HELD CAPTIVE BY THE POWER OF SIN. MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS CHRIST DEATH DECLARED AND DELIVERED YOUR FREEDOM. BUT THERE IS A PART YOU PARTAKE IN. YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT, BELIEVE, AND CONFESS. WHEN YOU CALL HIM LORD, SAVIOR, AND REDEEMER, HE WILL CALL YOU BY YOUR NEW NAME. 

RECAP: LAST MONTH WE WERE STILL TALKING ABOUT BEING A PILLAR AND FOUNDATION OF GOD’S TRUTH. PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING AND SEEKING TRUTH. EVEN THOUGH GOD’S CHURCH AND GOD’S PEOPLE MAY BE THE LAST PLACE THEY LOOK FOR IT, LET IT BE THE LAST YET BEST PLACE THEY FIND WHAT GOD’S LOVE FOR THEM IS ALL ABOUT!

INTRODUCTION: THIS MONTH WE WILL START SEASON EIGHT. WILL THE REAL CHURCH OF GOD PLEASE STAND UP AND OUT? WEARING THE OUTFIT GOD PICKED OUT!

SCRIPTURE:  COLOSSIANS 3:12-14 (MSG)

12-14 So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, and discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, and quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.

 WEAR WHAT WILL ATTRACT OTHERS TO GOD!
THIS IS AUTHENTIC MATERIAL!
IT IS TAYLOR-MADE, FIT JUST FOR YOU!
IT NEVER FADES OR GOES OUT OF STYLE!  

Please go back and revisit some of the old recordings of TOUCHED BY MERCY & LIVING ON GRACE PODCAST and continue to share.

We will be back in March 2024. Please keep us in your prayers.

INTRODUCTION: WILL THE REAL CHURCH OF GOD PLEASE STAND UP AND STAND  OUT? 

“WE ARE THE PILLAR AND FOUNDATION OF GOD’S TRUTH!” 

1 Timothy 3:14-15

14 I am writing these things to you now, even though I hope to be with you soon, 15  so that if I am delayed, you will know how people must conduct themselves in the household of God. This is the church of the living God, which is the pillar (we are the support and foundation. It is the people, not the building, organizational infrastructure, or programs, who hold up and hold out God's Word.) and foundation of the truth.

1 Timothy 1:1-2, it tells us to stop those who are teaching what is contrary to the truth, things that are meaningless, and those things that do not help the people of God live a life of faith. 

God expects believers to have a pure heart full of love, a clear conscience, and genuine faith. But as the Word says, people are turning from the truth and spending time talking about things that are meaningless. Just pay attention to some of the discussions that have been on all social media and the news. We have so many people who are so eloquent/bold with their words but unfortunately, they really don’t know what they are talking about. 

As Christians, just like Paul, our testimony should show God’s mercy on the worst of sinners, showing that God is willing and able to save anybody with a willing heart. Sisters and brothers we have to hold tightly to our faith and keep our conscience clear, according to the Word, if we do not, our faith will become shipwrecked.

1 Timothy 2: Our Worship has to include praying for all people: asking God to help them, intercede on their behalf, and give thanks to them. God tells us when we pray for our world and government leaders, it brings peace and quiet lives to us that are marked by godliness and dignity, and it is good and pleases God because He wants everyone to be saved and to know and understand His truth. Let us pray with our holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy. 

1  Timothy 3: The standards for God's Leaders have not changed. Paul says a person who is desiring to be a church leader, is desiring an honorable position. The definition of honorable is upright, honest, just, conscientious, and scrupulous, honorable mean having or showing a strict regard for what is morally right. 

 Paul teaches us that there is a way that we as believers must conduct ourselves in and out of the church, especially leaders because we are the church of the LIVING GOD which is the pillar and foundation of GOD’S TRUTH!  Y’all everything we do in God's church matters; scripture tells us things decent and in order and do it as if the Lord is watching

HELLO, WELCOME TO SEASON 8 OF THE BEING TOUCHED BY MERCY AND LIVING ON GRACE PODCAST.

WORSHIPPERS, CHILDREN, DISCIPLES, SERVANTS, AND FRIENDS: GOD CALLS US OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELOUS LIGHT TO SAVE US FROM EXPERIENCING THE WORST POSSIBLE THING WE SHOULD EVER FEAR, ETERNAL SEPARATION FROM HIM. HE CALLED US TO BE WORSHIPPERS, CHILDREN, DISCIPLES, SERVANTS, AND FRIENDS. HE WANTS US TO  STOP WALKING AND LIVING IN DARKNESS. HE NO LONGER WANTS US TO BE HELD CAPTIVE BY THE POWER OF SIN. MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS CHRIST'S DEATH DECLARED AND DELIVERED YOUR FREEDOM, BUT THERE IS A PART YOU PARTAKE IN. YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT, BELIEVE, AND CONFESS. WHEN YOU CALL HIM YOUR LORD, SAVIOR, AND REDEEMER, HE WILL CALL YOU BY YOUR NEW NAME.!

INTRODUCTION: WILL THE REAL CHURCH OF GOD PLEASE STAND UP AND STAND  OUT?  

Ephesians 6:14- (AMP) So stand firm and hold your ground, having [a]tightened the wide band of truth (personal integrity, moral courage) around your waist and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (an upright heart).

 Philippians 1:27-(NLT)- Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ. Then, whether I come and see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are standing together with one spirit and one purpose, fighting together for the faith, which is the Good News.

I’m talking about the people of God who live out what they believe, you live according to the Truth of God’s Word and live by the holy standards of God. You are reading the bible, and attending church to seek a real change in your life. You give and serve out of gratitude and humility. You stand up for righteousness, you hate the things God hates, and you desire to do the will of God. Am I getting your attention yet?

Jesus has to be our Lord and Savior.

 People of God we have been in the business of messing up God’s church for far too long. We are no different than the Egyptians, Pharisees, Sadducees, Assyrians, Hittites, and the non-believers. We may not be physically putting people in slavery or committing murders but we have enslaved a lot of people with these laws and regulations that have nothing to do with God’s free gift of salvation. 

 Do you really know why the church was even established? Do you what God expects from every church that is open in His name? Do you know what the needs are in your church/community?  

Y’all the true church of Christ is the ones that God loves, the one that loves God, the one He died for. According to the Word Jesus is coming back for His Bride, this is not a building or denomination. Church in Greek means “a called-out assembly”- called out of the world, set apart by Jesus, (plural and single). Y'all show me in the Bible where Jesus called the building the church!
