Am I Standing in God's Way?

Am I Standing in God's Way?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] When God begins to move, will we follow Him or stand in His way? In Acts 11, Peter returns from the home of Cornelius and immediately faces questions from those who struggled to accept what God was doing. Their focus was not on changed lives, the work of the Holy Spirit, or the spread of the Gospel. Their concern was that God had worked outside the boundaries of their traditions. Rather than responding with pride or defensiveness, Peter carefully explains how God had led him every step of the way. His conclusion was simple and powerful: if God was clearly at work, who was he to oppose Him? This message challenges us to examine our own hearts. Are we allowing tradition, preference, comfort, or human reasoning to keep us from following God's direction? Are we celebrating what God is doing, even when it stretches us beyond what is familiar? Join us as we discover the difference between standing in God's way and surrendering to His will. Learn how humility, obedience, and a willingness to follow God's leading can position us to be part of His work rather than a hindrance to it. This practical study from Acts 11 will challenge every believer to ask one life-changing question: Am I standing in God's way? Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]

When Order Breaks

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] Temptation is not a new struggle. It began in the Garden of Eden when Satan challenged the authority of God's Word and convinced Eve to listen to a different voice. What followed was not simply a bad decision but the collapse of God's order for the home and for humanity. In this message from Genesis 3:1-7, we examine how temptation gains ground when God's Word is questioned, God's voice is ignored, and personal desire becomes more important than obedience. We will also look at Adam's silence in a moment when truth needed to be spoken and how that silence affected everything that followed. This is a message about the battle every believer faces. It is about choosing truth over feelings, obedience over desire, and faith over the promises of sin. The same enemy that worked in the Garden still works today, but God's Word remains just as true and just as powerful. Join us as we discover what happens when God's order is abandoned and how we can stand firm when temptation comes. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]

Designed for Desire

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/fan_mail/new] Culture talks nonstop about intimacy, but rarely about covenant. In this episode of “New Hope for Today,” we dive into Genesis 2:25 and uncover God’s design for marriage, openness, vulnerability, and real connection. This is more than a conversation about physical intimacy. It’s about broken homes, hidden struggles, emotional distance, and the kind of revival that starts inside the family. If the home falls apart, everything else follows. It’s time for the church to stop whispering about what God made holy. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]

Covenant Without Commitment

In this episode, we dive into Genesis 2:24 and uncover God’s design for covenant relationships. This is a direct and biblical conversation about leaving old loyalties, cleaving in faithfulness, and building marriages that last when feelings fluctuate and pressure rises. We confront the modern mindset of wanting intimacy without responsibility, commitment without sacrifice, and pleasure without accountability. Whether you are single, dating, married, or struggling in your relationship, this episode will challenge the way you view love, loyalty, intimacy, and covenant before God. Culture teaches convenience. Scripture teaches covenant. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2239281/support]
