All through the Old Testament we see the work of priests on behalf of God for the kingdom of Israel. Through their service to God they would serve the kingdom through sacrifices and offerings. The king’s office and the priests office were distinct and separate, but in Jesus the two offices would be forever merged. Jesus, the king and the last High priest, would serve God in a manner that would forever establish His kingdom. Let this message cause you to behold your priestly King and see how He impacts your life today.

Paul told Timothy about this grace of God in his life then burst into a verse of praise. He praised the King eternal, King immortal, King invisible and the only wise God. Paul’s King is our King. This message will cause you to be reminded of the One who is eternal, immortal and invisible yet visible. And it will challenge you to, like Paul, live in a now moment to bestow glory and honor on our King both now and forever.

Pilate said to Jesus: “So, you are a king?” Jesus gave an affirmative answer to his question and, as a matter of fact, said it was for that purpose He was born into the world. He was King. He is King - then, now and future. Many people look to Him as savior, which He is. But salvation is a result of His position of kingship. Do you see your king? Do you recognize your king? See Him for He was born to be…King

As we celebrate the launching of Hope Community Church in Lower Fairview, this message is a reminder of how the redeemed join the Redeemer in the work of redemption. The Redeemer has a plan and expects the redeemed to be part of it. When the redeemed of the Lord participate in the redemption of the Lord, the ruins are restored, and the Redeemer receives the glory.

John, Jesus and the apostles preached a message of the kingdom of heaven is at hand. In doing so they were inviting men and women to step into the realm of the King and His Kingdom. It is an invitation to step into the culture of heaven now as we look forward to its fulfillment in the future. It is more than an invitation to get to heaven when you die but also have the kingdom of heaven as you live. You’re invited...will you accept?

What do you do when the world around you seems to be crashing down? When uncertainty wants to shape your countenances? When situations are beyond your control? You look up. You look up to see the One who is sitting on the throne. This message reminds us to look up when it all seems to be coming down.

So often, we make the culture church more about hype in Christ than we do about the message of hope.  Pastor Troy dives into the authenticity of our walk with Christ and how we can declare Jesus is every aspect of who we are and what we do.

Paul told the Ephesians to stand in the day of evil with the armor of God. He then told them To pray in the Spirit at all times. This message uses the story of the day of evil that came upon king Jehoshaphat to show what happens when God’s people pray. When the day of evil comes stand firm...and pray.

Exodus 14 is a wonderful picture of Ephesians 6. The day of evil had come upon the Israelites that fled from pharaoh. They would need to stand still to see the salvation of the Lord in the day of evil. And stand they did. They stood in the very things Paul told the Ephesians to stand in. And, when they stood they saw the salvation of the Lord. Then they who were commanded to be silent..burst forth in song. There’s a time to stand and be silent, but there is a day to sing and that day is now!

The one thing we can be sure the devil bows to is the word of God. Scripture shows us over and over he bows when God speaks. In our struggle with him and his dark forces we have a weapon called the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. This message will demonstrate and reveal how we first receive the sword of the Spirt then we wield the sword of the Spirit. We stand firm…in the Word.
