Today's message examines the attitudes of gentleness, righteousness and mercy and highlights the unique characteristics of a believer who chooses to adopt these attitudes.

Gentleness or meakness can be defined as "power under control." Are you known for making peace or known to stir things up?

Do you seek righteousness, honesty, integrity and justice in your life? Jesus desires that we literally hunger and thirst for righteousness. Those who seek righteousness cannot tolerate sin in their lives.

Mercy is exemplified by one who displays sympathy and compassion towards anyone in need. Someone who is merciful, does not deal with others in a harsh manner.

Only when we choose to yeild our lives completely to God, under the control of the Holy Spirit, will we be able to embody these characteristics. ]]> Building Upon The Right Foundation info@srvbc.org Sun, 22 Aug 2010 11:30:00 -0700 http://www.srvbc.org/view_media.asp?mediaID=1292 Adel Akl 34:08 Sermon by Adel Akl from 1 Corinthians 3:8-11

  • The gate of the heart. Implore the Lord to write His Word on your heart through diligent and consistent memorization of the Bible.
  • The gate of our tounge. Words can be destructive or instructive. Our words must be truthful, acurate, pure and thoughtful.
  • The gate of our eyes. The eyes are the window of the soul. Our eyes must be fixed on Jesus. Bad company corrupts good morals.

    Today's message highlights three important characteristics each believer should model as we await the Lord's return:
    1. Live an exemplary and truthful life. Any compromise will void our testimony for Christ. Our lives and conduct must be a godly examples to others.
    2. Avoid idols. Placing anything or anyone (including ourselves) ahead of the Lord is a sin. We must maintain our loyalty to our God first.
    3. Abounding in love -- godly love is an outward love not an inward one
    As followers of Christ, we must live sober and clean lives. Although we live in this world, we must not take part in the sins of this world. Living in anticipation of Christ's comming will prove to be the best path.]]>         He Is Near info@srvbc.org Sun, 25 Jul 2010 11:30:00 -0700 http://www.srvbc.org/view_media.asp?mediaID=1281 Ron Cooper 47:35 Sermon by Ron Cooper from Mark 16:4-6,9-13
    We can be assured that during such seasons of difficulty Jesus is willing and waiting for us to reach out to Him. When all seems lost Jesus comes to the rescue.

    As in each of the scripture references today, Jesus will reveal Himself to those who are hurting and discouraged. We must, however be willing to acknowledge His presnece and receive Him by faith.

    Is God reaching out to you today through difficult and discouraging circumstances? Jesus will never leave us nor forsake us.

  • Desire to do God's will: Do you desire God's will above anything or anyone else in this world?
  • Determine to seek and follow God's will: In other words, we must ask God, "What do you have for me to do today?" This can be summed up in the acronym ASAP ("Always Say A Prayer").
  • Do His will: God wants us to be "real" Christians, who go out into the world and live a life that is consistent with the teaching of Christ. We do not have the power to accomplish this testimony without being fully surrendered to Him.

    There will always be those who specialize in finding fault in others. Judging others hinders the work of Christ and is a sign of a shriveled soul. Are we hinderers or helpers? The one who is hindering the work of God also makes the most noise. Let's not hinder; let's help the work of God's kingdom.

    We should expect difficulties when bringng others to Christ. No hindrance should affect our determination to lead someone to Christ. May the Lord help us be men and women who carry others to the Lord.

    God doesn't interrogate the lost. Jesus is loving, kind and compassionate. Let's emulate Jesus' spirit when leading others to Christ.

    The Apostle John had a special love for Jesus, laying his head upon Jesus’ breast in simple worship toward his Lord. Do you share the deep love for Jesus that John did? Do you hold Jesus in high regard and give Him preeminence in your life? There is only one way that we can experience the peace that surpasses all understanding. There is unspeakable joy in having a personal relationship with Jesus. He is the only one who can claim that He has conquered death and rose again. We have a living God and nothing is impossible in this life without Jesus Christ.

    Have you accepted the Gift of God? If so, you can truly exclaim "Joy to the world, the Lord has come!"

    God wants us to have an abundant life. Will you allow Him to transform your life into something truly incredible?

We must be like Elisha, on our knees, using the weapon of prayer.

      Where is your place of safety today? Place yourself at the feet of Jesus. Seek to stay close to Him. This is the only place we can find peace, contentment and trust, knowing that He will take care of His own.

      There are certain brand-marks in the life of a Believer that should be evident in our daily lives. These evidences are possible only through the occupation and renewal by the Holy Spirit, as a result of salvation.
      • A freedom from the law of sin and death through a new spiritual birth.
      • A desire to reconcile conflicts in our lives in order to reconcile people to God.
      • A deep, honest and joyful fellowship with the Lord and the Body of Christ.
      • A worship that is genuine, alive and vibrant as directed by the Holy Spirit.
      • Placing a high priority on evangelism: delivering the Good News of Jesus Christ.
      • Leading a life that is separated from this world.
      • Godly and holy conduct in our daily life.

      Each individual believer needs the others in order to complete the body. Can you imagine trying to live the Christian life by yourself? There is something wonderful about the blessing of interacting with other believers

      We each have need of one another have and must be committed to each other in order to make the body complete. If we are unfaithful in our duties to the Lord, the whole body suffers. We must be mindful to make absolutely sure where God wants us to be, accepting one another just as Christ accepted us.

    9. We enjoy the fellowship of Christians.
      10. That first love is so important because it aligns our perspective on our lives and circumstances, give us a genuine care for others and attracts those around to Christ.

      If you find today that you have lost your first love and your focus on God, recognize the misstep in your life where you turned away from God. Confess your sin. Remember what He did for you, and turn back to Him. His arms are always open wide, and He is waiting for you.

      God wants us to be accountable to Him, honest and straightforward without excuse. Excuses are an attempt to cover our sin or explain away our shortcomings and sins, considering these things as unimportant. The Lord, however, does not want us to fall into the same pit as Adam and Eve. There are three excuses that affect our lives for eternity:
      1. Excuses for not getting saved.
      2. Excuses for not living a Godly life.
      3. Excuses for not serving the Lord.
      We can always come up with excuses; however, no one will have any excuse for their actions when we stand before Him in Heaven. We are all sinners who are saved only by the grace of God. What excuses are preventing you from knowing God and living a Godly life?

      13. Do you know what God’s will is for you? We must be awake in order to be aware of His will and plan for our lives. Are you listening to His word and the people He is using to reveal His plan for you? Aligning your interest with His will allow you to obey and follow His direction. We must surrender our will to His, in order for us to make the right choices and do the right things, leading to a life that pleases Him.

      If you find yourself unaware of what God's will is for you, please pray, asking for forgiveness and renewal, knowing that He will never refuse a sincere heart seeking forgiveness and salvation.

      When we face difficulties, even though we may find ourselves panicked and fearful we must first remember that God has a plan and our Captain is Jesus Christ. No one has ever endured the cross or any other agony that Jesus bore on our behalf. He did not fail in that endeavor, and He will not fail in what He has in store for you.

      He allows circumstances for specific reasons in our lives; however, when all is said and done, you will find yourself stronger, more prepared and closer to God than ever before. A storm with Jesus in our boat is far better than smooth sailing without Him. The only remedy for our lives is Jesus Christ. We must let Him govern, fearing nothing, allowing Him to move our lives forward in our journey to the other side. Let us set sail, cut the rope and leave the comforts of our lives behind. Are you ready to journey with Jesus?

      Jesus often desires to have us travel with Him, as he wants us to experience Him in new and different ways. Jesus' call is unique, asking us to:
      1. Cut the rope and travel light.
      2. Leave your comfort zone. Is there a better One to follow than Jesus Christ?
      3. Move forward. No matter if the journey is long or short, we must not be stagnant.
      Jesus will equip us for whatever journey He desires for us. Let us set sail, for our benefit and the benefit of others who do not yet know Him as Lord and Savior.

      At the moment of conversion, the Holy Spirit immediately takes up permanent residence in the life of a believer. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is everlasting and full-time, not a part-time coming and going based on our behavior or feelings. As a result, believers are empowered and free to serve God.

      The marks of the Holy Spirit should be evident to others, as the life of the believer is meant to be different. A few examples of these markings are:
      • A spirit of reconciliation
      • A desire for deep and honest fellowship
      • Worship is alive, real and shared
      • Evangelism takes a high priority
      May God bless us with a desire to allow the Holy Spirit to work freely in our lives, so that we may affect the lives of others for the glory of God.

    There is no doubt that Daniel was exceptional and extraordinary. God is looking for these types of people to serve Him -- people with firm characters of integrity. Daniel's lifestyle convicted many people, as he was trustworthy and incorruptible. How do our lives compare to that of Daniel's? Is there any evidence of corruption in our lives? Is there a distinction between your lifestyle and this world?

    How can we gain such high character of incorruptibility? God is able to transform our lives and characters so that it will transform other people's lives. We can go through all of the motions, but sin is always crouching at our door, ready to pounce upon us if we let it into our lives. Our lives must bring glory to God in order to bring others into His kingdom. There are lives at stake. We are not called to be successful in this world; we are called to be faithful.

    This inspirational sermon challenges us to be committed to live a life that pleases God, without the slightest compromise or exception.

    This inspiring sermon focuses on the life of Joseph. Being a consistent and godly man, Joseph had the right reaction to his trials and successes. There are three main characteristics that Joseph possessed that allowed him to live a life that was pleasing in God's site:
    1. Right Attitude
    2. Right Perspective
    3. Right Outlook
    Remember, God can turn our bitterness into sweetness and turn our sorrow into blessing. God knows the end result. Whatever He allows in our lives is used to transform and conform us to the image of Christ and glorify Him. God's purposes and God's plan come from His hand. We cannot choose our circumstances, but how we choose to look at those circumstances is within our control.

  • How do these choices help us or hurt us?

What are the consequences of your decisions regarding your spiritual future? Whom are you serving today? Does your answer leave you peaceful or doubtful? What is your choice?

    We are living in extremely difficult times today. As a nation, we have removed God our homes, schools, government, business practices and society; however, we can take a stand today to fight for what God has given us. Regardless of what opposition we may face, we can stand firm upon the promises of God. We must not be ashamed to live for and proclaim our faith in Jesus.

    If we want to save America, we must awaken and repent from our sin and start living for God -- at home right now.

    This challenging sermon focuses on passages of scripture that closely parallel the times in which we live. Many people are seeking someone or something to provide them with hope, deliverance and direction for their lives. Like the Israelites in today's reading, many have fashioned idols in their lives -- choosing to turn away from God and turning their worship, time and devotion to man-made idols. Some Christians have also turned away from God. Tired of waiting for Him to act, they find themselves living ineffective, hollow and unfulfilled lives. When we lose site of God, we quickly turn our worship to other things or other people.

    As we await the return of the Lord, what choices have you made? It is God's desire that you choose to follow Jesus and remain faithful to Him alone, living a life that brings glory to Him. Have you chosen to remove Jesus from the throne and replace Him with something or someone else? If the Lord continues to put his finger on a sin in your life, what is your excuse? The bottom line is that it is neither right nor acceptable to live in sin. Although we have the freedom of choice, may we make the right choice, repent from our sin and turn back to Him -- and, once that choice is made, we must remain faithful, surrendering our lives to Him and standing with Him. If not, how long will you waiver between two choices?

    This choice is one of life and death. If you choose to set this decision aside or make it a trivial matter, you have chosen a dangerous path. There will be a time, when it will be too late to make the choice to follow Jesus. The time of choosing is now. Will you repent of your sins, surrender your life and follow Jesus?

    This encouraging sermon message focuses on the life of one courageous and obedient follower of God: Elijah. The times in which Elijah lived are very much like the times we live in today. Elijah was a man of great courage, enthusiasm and zeal for the Lord. The keys to these characteristics in his life were born out of his dedication to God. Being a man of prayer, he spent much of his time in private preparation and fellowship with God in order to administer his public ministry. Are these believers of old really any different than we are today?

    Three key elements of Elijah's life are examined:
    1. Elijah was convinced of the reality of God.
    2. Elijah was convinced he was a personal representative for the Living God.
    3. Elijah was aware of the resources available to him as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus.

    These same circumstances confronted the believers in Peter's day as well. How did they live in a world gone mad? Thankfully, Peter carried out the orders given him by Jesus to "tend my sheep" and masterfully reveals to us the keys to successful living in dark times. We are called "aliens and strangers," as we must remember that we are simply sojourning through this earthly world. We are strangers. As we are here only for a short time, there is an urgency to Peter's message. God wants us to know that we can view the world differently -- with hope. There should be a definitive difference between the believer and unbeliever. This challenging sermon focuses on what we can do to live a life that brings glory to God.

    This encouraging sermon focuses on the disciple Thomas. Because of his failure, Thomas has been known as "doubting Thomas" throughout the ages. Doubt can be the number one destructive element in our lives; however, God wants us to be victorious over doubt, through the studying of His word, praying and spending time with Him. Five main points are examined:
    • Who was Thomas?
    • Why did Thomas doubt?
    • Who Changed Thomas' life?
    • How Did Thomas get to his point of change?
    • What did Jesus do for Thomas to help him?

    We need to obey in this same manner, even when things don't make sense. We need to behave like Abraham, without arguing and without delay, acting from a pure love of God and remembering Jesus' comforting words "Trust Me." Perhaps God may not test us in the manner that we would prefer; however, if we are obedient and move by faith, God promises that He will make things clear -- in His time. We cannot do this in and of ourselves, but the good news is that we can seek God's provision if grace from the One who supplies all grace, peace and courage. We can trust Him.

    This sermon illustrates the importance of making right choices, as well as the negative consequences of making the wrong choice. Each one of us faces a number of choices each day. How do you make a decision when faced with a number of difference choices? What happens when you make the right choice? What happens when you make the wrong choice? What resources does God provide to assist us in making the right choice? Who influences our choices?

    Four parts are examined which make up all choices:
    • Setting: What are the circumstances?
    • Options: What options are available?
    • Outside Influence: What external forces are influencing our decision?
    • Result/Consequence: What are the results and/or consequences?

    This is the story of millions of people today. Many people are far away from God and spiritually bankrupt. The only thing that can make you a new man or woman is a life in Jesus Christ. No amount of recreation, lust, money or any other thing this world has to offer equals a life in Christ. Many people attend church regularly, but their lives and minds are in the world. They quickly forget the message and Messenger as soon as they leave.

    Is there a specific place or a specific institution where one can obtain wisdom? Thankfully, the answer is a resounding "yes." God had given us the Bible as a source of truth, instruction and inspiration. This book tells us, through the gospels, who the source of all truth is. Today's message focuses on the book of Proverbs. It has been said of the Proverbs that it is the book of "compressed experience." It is a book of contrasts, illustrating the perils of rebellion and the rewards of obedience in the ways of God. It is a book of choices, the pathways of life, and a book that contrasts being wise versus being foolish.

    The word "proverb" means "to compare, or to rule." The word "wisdom" means "insight into those actions that please God." A proverb will tells us of a right thing, and wisdom is doing that right thing. Prudence, knowledge and discretion are also keys to living a godly life. A healthy Christian is continually learning and growing, seeking wise counsel to consult with and to listen to. This helps us to understand the various proverbs of life.

    The wise person acquires wisdom in order to teach him how to live a godly life, not influenced by the wicked things of this world. The only way to acquire wisdom is to first fear the Lord(i.e. taking God with the greatest level of seriousness), worship and live for Him.

    The question we must ask ourselves is: how seriously do we take God? Have we taken the first step to obtain wisdom? Knowing there are not shortcuts to wisdom, start where we all need to start, that is at the feet of Jesus.

    We can easily mention the name of God in today's society, without much resistance or backlash; however, the mention of Jesus' name elicits much backlash and hatred. Many believe that Jesus is not the Son of God and therefore, not the Savior of the world; however, without Jesus, there would not be a gospel, and we would have no hope. If He had not risen, the Bible tells us that we are to be pitied more than all other men, as we are putting our faith in a fraud.

    What would it be like without Jesus? What would life be like if it were all a lie? It would be full of despair, defeat and hopelessness. The truth, however, is that Jesus has come and has delivered those who believe in Him from sin. He has changed lives forever. Many will ask for proof of this transformation. That proof should come from each believer's testimony. Believers should be living lives that truly glorify Christ. Even though Jesus has not yet manifested Himself again on this earth, the effects of Him should be evident to all -- through believers. Do people see the proof of Christ in our lives?

    The story of Job in scripture provides similar circumstances of despair and hopelessness, but Job's investment wasn't in belongings, possessions or people. His hope was in the Lord. He never despaired or lost hope because his hope was in One who would never fail. Four key points are examined:
    1. Satan's plan is to accuse and destroy. He takes no prisoners.
    2. God always has a purpose in mind when allowing suffering.
    3. The suffering that God allows is always for our good.
    4. Where is our hope today?

    Influence of others is the common theme of these chapters. Today, the pervasiveness of evil seems to be the leading influential factor; however, we must strive to turn the tide, making Christianity an influencing factor by leading godly lives that attract others to Christ.

    The Apostles were for the most-part simple, uneducated men; however, these men had great influence upon those with whom they interacted. It was solely through God's equipping that the Apostles could possess such influence, boldness and clearness in communicating with others. These men had been with Jesus and gained such an intimate relationship with Him, that they obtained His power. We too can have this same effectiveness. The foundation of an influential life has three main elements:
    1. Christian influence begins with a conversion (new birth) experience.
    2. Christian influence requires communion (companionship) with Jesus Christ.
    3. Christian influence requires commitment to His life and teaching.
    Do you want to have an influential life? Do you want a life where others notice that you have been with Jesus?

    God's word provides an anchor of truth, reminding us that God is in control. We do not choose the times of joy or the times of sorrow. We do, however choose how we react to these times. The verses today illustrate the timeline of life. There will always be events that occur in our lives creating chaos and causing turmoil. Apart from God, this can lead to hopelessness and depression, but in Him, there can always be peace. Trusting God is the key to satisfaction and peace in our lives. Looking to Jesus for salvation will result in a new life perspective.

  • This world is not our home; we are aliens, foreigners and strangers.
  • We are chosen for a purpose, chosen to obedience, to serve and to die daily to ourselves.
  • Our inheritance is certain, permanent and undefiled. Our inheritance is God Himself, and all believers will be in heaven with Him; we are protected by the power of God. No one can steal the Christian's treasure, and no one can prevent us from receiving it.
  • Although we may experience distressing trials, we can be assured that if we cling to the Lord, the resulting outcome will be a faith that is proven, genuine and true.
    • Reflect again of how great the salvation is that we received at the time of conversion. We have not seen Christ, but we love Him and rejoice beyond words. In view of what Christ has done, how are we to react to this gift? Our conduct must change in order to be ready at the time of Christ's return:
    • We must "roll-up our sleeves" -- beginning to act as those who mean business (staring with a disciplined mind).
    • We must be sober -- morally alert in our speech and conduct.
    • We must be obedient -- we simply cannot continue doing whatever we want, acting the same as when we did not know the Lord.
    • We must be holy in all our behavior, as Jesus is holy. The true role model is nothing less than God Himself. We must be obedient children, reproducing the family likeness.
    The day of God's return is quickly approaching. We must be ready for that day, by living right today.

    The list of effective leaders is extremely short. Although a mere cupbearer for the King, Nehemiah turned out to be a great leader. He had a passionate burden to rebuild the walls protecting Jerusalem.

    The wall was nothing but a pile of useless rubble. Nehemiah sat and wept over the state of affairs and knew it was his duty to gather and lead the people to rebuild the wall. Although they faced opposition and mocking, they did not despair, as Nehemiah encouraged the workers and set a Godly example because he trusted in the Lord. Nehemiah left his life of comfort in the King's palace and went back to his country to fulfill God's calling.

    Workers that are called to lead must have a heavy burden for leadership. Feeding lives, enduring difficulties, conflicts, discouragements and battles are only a few of the experiences encountered on a daily basis. Leaders are chosen and placed by God. Leadership is not a self-appointed position.

    All believers that are truly born again are called to work. No matter your skills or background you can be a worker for God. Are you committed to Him and willing to do whatever He asks you to do? Hard work has always been a requirement of servanthood, and God is looking for hard workers ready and committed to carry out His work. God is looking for workers willing to work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Are you as committed as the enemies of God, who continually wage war against His people and His ways? God is opposed to the wicked, but blesses the righteous. What part do you play? Are you a committed builder or a wrecker in the great work of God?]]>         From Despair To Hope info@srvbc.org Sun, 31 Aug 2008 11:30:00 -0700 http://www.srvbc.org/view_media.asp?mediaID=1078 Randy White 36:25 Sermon by Randy White from Psalm 18:1-6,16-20,46-50
    How do we transform our despair to hope? How do we find solace in our circumstances? The key can be found in the first few verses of Psalm 18. If we have a deep, sincere love for God, He promises to provide the hope and strength we need to persevere. We can also be confident in the fact that these seasons in our lives will bring about lasting change in our character, resulting in a closer, more intimate walk with God.

    God delights in helping His children. He can be counted on to be there for us, no matter what the circumstance. Described as the Rock of Salvation, He is a safe and steady fortress. Under His wings we can weather any storm.

    How do you see yourself today? Do you see your faith, trust, and hope increasing, or are you still in despair? Those that turn and seek the Lord are promised a blessed encounter. His lovingkindness encompasses you as you place your trust in Him. God rules all and is in control of all things. Realizing our circumstances and struggles are too great for us to handle is the first step in seeking His help.

    Although God does not always act in a way that we would prefer, we can rest in the fact that His way is the best way. God knows better and His goodness can never be exhausted. Christians are people of hope, not of despair. Hope always has the foundation of Jesus Christ.

    Jesus Christ delivered the greatest farewell speech, a message of truth and hope. Prior to His day of crucifixion, the Lord Jesus gathered His disciples, humbling Himself He washed their feet, telling them not to be troubled as He was going to prepare a place for them. He told them that He would return to bring them to that dwelling place, to be with Him for eternity.

    Although we struggle and at times may want to give up, Jesus encourages us by asking us to wait just a little longer. His promise of return is further enhanced by the promise of where He is going to take us. Oh the joy that should fill our hearts with these promises. There is, however, only one way in which we are able to realize these promises. He states simply that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life -- no one comes to the Father except through Him. In view of this truth, to where are you headed? The opportunity is given to you today to accept this free gift, believing what Jesus has said and what He has done on our behalf.

    In life there are two roads -- one is narrow, and one is wide. The wide road is, unfortunately, the one that the majority of folks choose. It is a road of self-effort and self-satisfaction. The narrow road, however, is one of faith and obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ. Our lives are not simply a series of random events. The Lord knows all, long before circumstances occur in our lives. It is easy for us to make our own plans, however God desires to be in our plans. The sweet path of God begins with our decision to accept Him as our Lord and Savior. The Lord delights in directing our steps, and though we may stumble and even fall along the way, what counts is that we get up each time in order to continue the journey. God promises to care for His people each and every day. The Lord will supply the strength and stamina we need, loving and encouraging us along the way. We should desire to make our daily goal to please the Lord, seeking His will in our plans for each day. Have you made a decision for Christ?

    While society looks at the outward accomplishments of a man, God looks at the inner strength. Being an effective godly father requires that we be effective spiritual leaders in our homes. Leaving this responsibility to others will lead to a lifetime of regrets. In order to develop a godly character, we need to spend time with Jesus, in His Word and on our knees in order to gain godly understanding and wisdom.

    The ingredients for a peaceful and godly home can are summed up with:
    • A surrendered life to God (being a godly servant)
    • A faithfulness to God
    • A loyal Spirit to God and leadership.
    • A selfless love (a child cannot find the love of God without first finding godly love in his father)

Elijah experienced God in a new and different way. Afterwards, God was able to still use a broken vessel to accomplish His purposes in an even greater way.

    We can claim these same promises today if we are honest and clean before God. Being confident in the Lord's ability and willingness to sustain us through our darkest moments, we must focus on God's promises rather than on our fears and failures, obediently following and depending on Him.

    Many are the afflications of people today. Why does the Bible contain so many accounts of Jesus meeting with people with problems? -- the woman at the well, the lost hope of disciples on the road to Emmaeus shortly after Jesus' crucifiction, the man with the withered hand - all bruised reeds or smoldering wicks. We can imagine the desperate prayer on their lips begging for relief from the never-ending pain.

    The world has no room for people such as these. Jesus, however, is committed to doing good, maintaining His love and compassion for all of us. Jesus' healing requires no follow-up visits or second procedures. His spiritual healing is once and for all. Our passage today illustrates how, at a certain time, there was an encounter with God that resulted in a renewed relationship and closeness with Him.

    God who comforts the hurting and weak and will never snuff out a smoldering wick or break a bruised reed.

  • A Life that is inspirational for spiritual development. This begins from the moment a child is born. Inspirational spiritual living and teaching a child goldiness, does not require a high level of education, a degree in child psychology, nor any special skills -- only a close walk with God and sincere faith. Introducing children to Jesus Christ first and foremost ahead of anything else will be the beginning of a valuable Christian heritage.
  • A life that is an encouragement to her children's Christian service. Leading a life that includes and places a high priority on service to God encourages children to lead a life of service as well. This is an essential foundation in a child's life. Children will find inspiration in this training and example if started early, and they are encouraged along the way.
  • A life that is a witness to God's grace. Children are natural imitators. Whatever example that is put before them, they will follow. Nothing is more contagious than a mother that seeks to live a life after God's own heart. This provides a living example for a child to follow.
    • A mothers beautiful life is the greatest sermon a child will ever hear.

    What cares do you have on your heart? Cares that are perhaps so deep, so dear, and so personal, that no one else knows -- but, God knows. He is willing and able to lovingly address those issues, but we need to go to the source of all comfort, care and solutions.

    We must come to the end of ourselves and realize that:
    • God is the right source of our blessing and answers.
    • God has the right resources and abilities (A.R.M.S.).
      • A - Answers
      • R - Remedies
      • M - Miracles
      • S - Solutions
    • God gets the glory -- realizing that everything that we have today is from the Lord.

Many profess godliness with their mouths but deny Him in their hearts. There are no individuals or rebels in heaven. The Lord asks today, "Why do YOU call me Lord?" The thief on the cross almost missed his last opportunity; however, he said "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom". The man was sincere and recognized Jesus' Lordship. Paul on the Road to Damascus said, "Lord, what would you have me to do?"

    He is Lord; before His birth, after His birth, during His time on earth and after His ressurection. He is the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. There is no new life without the Him. Bow the knee and recognize Him as Lord and Savior today.
