The Resurrection Changes Everything - 1 Corinthians 15:12-14, 16-20

The Resurrection changes the meaning of faith, the meaning of death and the meaning of life. Jesus' death provided  for us the forgiveness and freedom from the hold that sin had on us. His resurrection provides the power for us to live a life of meaning that is worth living.

The Vulnerability Of Victory - 1 Kings 19:1-9

There are times after we have experienced a victory, our enemy launches an attack against us and we can succumb to feelings of depression just as Elijah did after his victory on Mt. Carmel. In those times, we must look at God rather than looking at our circumstances and trust that He will be faithful to fulfill His purposes for us.

The Eyes & Ears of Faith - 1 Kings 18:41-46

The servant of God never stops serving God until He calls him or her home. Elijah teaches us how we can stay active and useful in serving the Lord all of our days. He believed and embraced the promises of God before he actually saw them fulfilled. As a result of his active faith, the people proclaimed, "The Lord He is God!" May we be like Elijah and live our faith, in a promise keeping God.

Faith That Pleases God

In a culture in which all bets seem to be off when it comes to pleasing ourselves and options for how to do that have become an unlimited smorgasbord, it is critical that we know and remember what actually pleases God.

Beautiful Interruptions - Luke 5:17-26

Often times God interrupts our lives with amazing opportunities. They sometimes look like inconveniences but if we try to look at them from a heavenly perspective, we may just see something beautiful. Jesus, Himself, lived with constant interruptions. However, He seized those moments and people were left changed because of it. Jesus is calling His followers to do the same.

Showdown At Mount Carmel - 1 Kings 18

Scripture tells us that when we know the truth, God's truth, it will set us free. It is His truth that changes our lives and when applied, produces within us courage. Elijah knew the truth, believed the truth and because he did, he lived courageously for God. May we do the same.

From Tragedy To Triumph - 1 Kings 17:17-24

The God of Elijah is our God too. Just as Elijah trusted Him to do the impossible, we are to trust Him to the impossible in the worst of our situations. The Lord is able to do exceedingly beyond and above whatever we could think or imagine He could.

Elijah At Zarephath - 1 Kings 17:8-16

When Elijah meets the widow at Zarephath she is down to her last bit of flour and oil. She believes that she and her son are at the end of their lives. But as she gives out of her need to Elijah, she experiences a miracle of unlimited provision of flour and oil. God knows your situation and whatever your need is, He will faithfully provide for you as you share, sacrifice and give to others in their need.

Alone But Not Forgotten - 1 Kings 17:1-7

If you are experiencing a time of drought, do not lose heart. It is in these times of dryness, we see God coming through, meeting us where we are and faithfully providing for our every need.

Standing In The Presence & Power Of God - 1 Kings 16:23-17:1

The Lord is calling us to be an Elijah in our day, which means standing alone in faith against all that is against God. It means living courageously, knowing that our God is not dead but alive, is over all our situations and is sovereignly n control.
