Lazarus come Forth

Our first catalyst leading to Jesus’ crucifixion: the resurrection of Lazarus. Jesus partners with the will of God to wait until his friend dies so that more people would come to believe that He was the Messiah and stir the religious leaders against Him. I’m order to bring Him closer to redeeming God’s people.

Ground Zero

As we enter into this week, we ask God to help us understand the truth of His authority. It doesn’t matter where you are, or who you are, God can reveal Himself and redeem us from the darkest places. Jesus came to expose the false gods and powers of darkness so to set His people free. God invites you to meet with Him and His goodness through His Son Jesus – the King of kings and Lord of lords.

Training Days

The kingdom of darkness wants to deceive us and inoculate us so that we will not go out and advance the kingdom of God, because they know that if we all preached God’s word and lived godly lives, they would not be able to stand against us. We are called, as the church of God, to go into our respective homes and places of work and meet others’ needs by preaching God’s wisdom to them. To do this, we must train, at church and in our own time with the Lord. How are you approaching your daily time with God and your time on Sunday? Is it for you or to develop so we can advance the kingdom of God?

Redemption, Revelation and Wrestling

We cannot bring glory to God if we do not live in the fullness of who He created us to be. We cannot become the fullness of who He created us to be if we do not know Him so deeply that we can give Him our full trust and allegiance. Have you experienced God in such a way that you can give Him you can give Him everything you have?

Communing with God

We’ve been settling with the scraps of immature communion with God when our God-given right is to have deep and mature communion personally with the Father. Pastor Dave Diefendorf reveals two different states of maturity in our relationship with God: Do you spend your time with Jesus asking Him for things, or getting to know Him and enjoy Him and learn to see the world the way He does?
