Monday October 8th 20

We have begun a new chapter in Praise Community Fellowship. Last night we kicked off weekly  Sunday night services. The sermon last night, Letting God be God, I hope inspired all of you to think about how big and all encompassing our God really is. He owns everything, He created everything, and is in control of everything!

That being said, do you think a God with those credentials is going to let a new church such as ours flounder because we lack a big enough parking lot or too small a sanctuary? We are called to be the salt and light of the world. To love one another, forgive one another, to help one another, and first and far most to put God first in every area of our lives.

Last night my message centered on how God does things that many times may not make rational sense to us. We are called instead to do what makes Spiritual sense, and we find out what makes spiritual sense from the bible and from prayer.

It is my goal to have every member of Praise Community Fellowship, experience the mightiness of God in a personal way, but to accomplish that, each and everyone of you will have to be willing to step out in faith in some area of your life.

Last night I read from 1 Corinthians 2:14 which says,

"But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to Him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."

And in John 15:7 we read,

"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."

We worship a mighty God, let Him be God in your life so that you can experience all that He has for you. As I tried to communicate in my sermon last night, His promises are real but we have to "DO" something in our lives to allow His blessings to flow.  That doing starts by understanding His word and what Jesus taught us in the bible.

God will show up in a powerful way when you are ready to let Him take over your life!  It may not make rational sense with what He requires of you, but take it from personal experience, He will change your life in a powerful and wonderful way. But it is up to you. We are given free choice. To accept all He has to ignore and do it our own way. You choose.

I hope you choose Gods way, because then you will be able to sing with understanding and with enthusiasm, "Take the shackels off my feet so I can dance!"

Love, Kent   See you all next Sunday!
