Faith Under Fire - Acts 6:8-7:60

Stephen, the first martyry of the early church, provides for us a powerful example of what it means to sacrifice for the Lord. Because he was a man of faith and full of the Holy Spirit, he displayed for us how to live a life of grace and how to die with grace as followers of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Wisdom, Compassion & Grace Will Win The Day - Acts 6:1-7

The early church serves as an example to us of how God has gifted each one of us for the work of the ministry. We see this wonderfully displayed here in Acts chapter six, as each one used their gifts to meet the needs of those were being neglected. You have been given spiritual gifts to build up the Body of Christ, use them and see how God will be glorified and His people  edified.

The Man Who Saw The Unseen - 2 Kings 6:8-23

There are two themes found in this Old Testament story. The first, is the all-sufficiency of God to meet any crises we face. Second, our prayer is our means of access to the all-sufficient God.

A Resurrected Life - Ezekiel 37:1-14

The power of Jesus rests on us because His Spirit is in us. We find Him in the world around us and we find Him living within us. Are you living the new and resurrected life?

The Heat Is On But The Fire Is Spreading - Acts 5:12-42

God gave the Apostles power to perform great miracles to authenticate their ministry and to spread the Gospel. In spite of persecution, beatings and imprisonment the Apostles and early believers joyfully continued spreading the Gospel. May we follow their example and allow God to empower us to faithfully spread the Good News and see miracles happen in peoples lives.

Hypocrisy Verses Authenticity - Acts 5:1-11

These verses in Acts 5 teach us that hypocrisy and deceit undermine the work of the Holy Spirit within the body of Christ. As God's people we are to be trustworthy, real and authentic. We serve a holy God and we are to be holy as He is holy.

Praying With Power And Joy - Acts 4:23-27

The Acts Church enjoyed the miraculous display of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, saw numbers of people coming to Christ continually, even in the midst of heightened persecution. Because they prayed in the power of joy, prayed in the power of God's Word, united together in prayer for God's purposes to be accomplished and not for their own personal needs to be met, they saw extraordinary happenings daily.

Love Like Jesus - Luke 6:27-36

God calls us to love the unlovable, even our enemies. The Bible provides us with many examples of people who were willing to do just that.

Courage Under Fire - Acts 4:1-22

Peter and John serve as examples to us, in the face of adversity to be confident and courageous. They continued to speak in the name of Jesus, no matter what persecution they would have to endure. May we, like them, in the power of Jesus name, courageously live with hearts on fire for God.

God Has A Plan - Matthew 2:19, 21

God has always had a plan to save all humankind. He brought forth His Son to fulfill that plan which included you. He came so you could know Him and the life He has designed for you to live now and for all eternity. You needn't fear the unknown, He is sovereignly in control and He is Immanuel, God with you.
