Friday February 15th, It's Possible!

With God all things are Possible!  Matthew 19:26

Deep inside everyone of us is a seed planted by God.  It is the seed of our greatest potential.  That seed is unique because God has known since the beginning of time what your potential is for His Kingdom.

The key is bringing that seed to life. To have it germinate, watered, fertilized and nurtured until it produces fruit.  It is only when we find and nurture that God planted seed that we will come into our full potential while on this earth.

How do I find that seed?  The quickest and easiest way to find that seed is by going to God and surrendering your entire life to Him. Hold nothing back. Not your check book, your desires, your dreams, your goals, your family, or your routine.  When you pray that powerful prayer, the prayer of complete surrender, God will come into your life and begin moving in ways you have never thought possible. Then we must go to Gods word daly to understand His ways and to increase our faith so that we can stand bold and firm when adversities arise, and they will arise.

How will I know if it is God speaking to me and not just my own conscience?  This can be a tuff one one but there is an answer. There are two ways you can check the prompting to determine if it is God speaking to your heart or just your conscience or that wily serpent that wants to lead all of us astray.

              1.) God will never contradict His word. In other words check the scriptures to see if your   prompting agrees with what God has said in the bible.

               2.)  This goes along with number one but it is a quick reference. God will never have you do anything that would be anything but, loving, compassionate, forgiving, giving, or healing.  In-other- words anything God is going to ask us to do is going to have something to do with bringing people into a relationship with Jesus Christ and promoting His Kingdom here and now and the Kingdom which is to come. It will never be about you. You may find yourself in the spotlight or in great demand but the focus will never be on you.

I hope you can join us Sunday at 6:30 pm. Our Raise the Praise Choir will be leading worship as we prepare for the African Vision of Hope Concert coming up soon.

I will see you Sunday!    Love, Pastor Kent
