Miracle Night
Pastor Gloria
 
Mat 21:22 Trust in God.
1.  He will meet you at the point of your need.
2. Some say the day of Miracles is over-Not true.
3.  If miracles are over,then God doesn’t exist.
4.  The Bible is no longer needed. 
Malachi 3:6  For I am the Lord, I change not.  God is a miracle worker. Miracles are the acts of God-not man.
Jeremiah 32:27 Behold I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is there anything too hard for Me? (He makes the impossible, become possible in your life.)
5. His power is not limited to just healing alone.Miracles are God intervening in the lives of men if we ask Him.
Talk to Jesus.
How to receive a Miracle, How to keep your miracle.
John 20:21 Peace be with you, as My Father has sent me, even so I send you.
John 14:12 He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall you do also.
Mark 16:17-18 These signs shall follow those that believe. You MUST believe in God’s Word. 
Luke 1:37 For nothing will be impossible with God.
2 Cor 5:7 For we walk by Faith, not by sight. 
Talk different-STOP talking sickness.  Life and death are in the pwer of the tongue.  STAND, no matter what is going on.
Roman 10:17 So Faith comes from hearing and hearing through the Word of God.
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.


It Took a Miracle

3/24/2024
Sunday Morning
Pastor Gloria
 
Mark 16:14-20 After He appeared.  It took a miracle.  Jesus rebuked them for unbelief. Gave them an  assignment.  Our lives are not our own.  Never lose your zeal.  He was disappointed with the 11.  We always have a choice. God is fed up with what we are doing.  He is not giving this generation a pass.  God said, “It is enough!”   All of us have to change.  Don’t let yourself get hard.  Go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Without love it just doesn’t work. We cannot be hard.
1.  The Power of a Miracle-Have you ever seen a miracle take place?
John2 Jesus performed His first miracle at the wedding feast.
John 5 Jesus healed a man at the pool of Bethesda, who had been an invalid for 38 years.
John 6 Jesus fed 5,000 with 5 loaves of bread and 2 small fish.  
Jesus brought sight to a blind man.
Acts 2 A miracle with man received the pwer of the Holy Spirit.
2. The purpose of Miracles
Divine Confirmation
Kings 18 Elijah performed miracles to extablish his authority-empowered by God.
John 21:25
Hebrews 2:3-4 And there are also many other things that Jesus did.
Mark 16:14-20 Powerful God upbraided them for their unbelief. He appeared to them all. Eleven of His followers.
The presence of miracles.
Do people have the same power today to perform miracles? 
1 Cor 13:8
11Tim 3:16-17 That the man of God may be perfect thoroughly furnished unto all good works. Let’s follow the footsteps of Jesus and Miracles will happen.


Stand Firm in Faith

3/20/2024
Sunday Morning
Pastor Gloria
 
James 1:2-7 Testing of Faith-How are you going to get through what you are going through?
Your are either in or not in.  Know how to stand. Don’t go by what you feel.  Sickness is NOT of God. You can do things to bring on sickness yourself. Afflictions come. Faith has trials. Will you serve Him?  Will you love Him?
Get to know Him. 
James half brother of Jesus.  In Christ, Jesus is our elder brother.  If you lack wisdom, ask God. God wants to bless you. Get from God. Stand in faith no matter what. Surrender your will to God. There are gradual healings and there are miracles.  Stand firm in God. When you give it, release it. WAIT ON THE LORD. He will renew your strength.
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 Be on guard, stand firm in faith. Watchful-Stand fast. How do you stand firm in faith during difficulty?
1) Trust-God is in control- He is more than able to take care of you in every circumstance.
2)Remain in the Word-Jesus said If you remain in my Word-When the Word says it, never doubt it.
3) Do not give up-He is more than able. Do not doubt God’s presence in your life. He cares.
John16:33 In this world, you will have trials and tribulations, BUT… fear not, I have overcome the world.
You have what you say.  Being a child of God does not make you immune to challenges, suffering and seasons of difficulty. (He had to endure pain.)
How to walk by faith every day:
1) Start your day in prayer, and end your day in prayer.  1Thes 5:16-18
2) Know what is and isn’t important,
3) Place spiritual boundaries in your life, 1 Tim 4:16
4) Read and meditate on Scripture, Rom 19:17
5) Remember you are an ambassador of Christ.
1 Thes 5:16-18 Growing in Faith Day & Night
1 Cor 15:33 Do not be deceived. 
Remember you are an Ambassador of Christ.
Matt 5:13
Rom 13:13


The Reality of Faith

3/16/2024
Sunday Morning
Pastor Gloria
 
Hebrews 11:1 Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for,  the evidence of things not seen. Faith is substance, faith is real.  You can have confidence.  Believe that He is and He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.  Have expectancy that God hears me. Not “what if?” Or are you waiting to see the answer? For every faith there’s a great trial.  Believe God. He is God and nothing is impossible with Him.  Help my unbelief.  God will prove Himself to you. Build yourself up in the most holy faith. I can do all things through Christ.
IIKings 6:15, 17 Trouble has conquered you instead of faith. Reality is true. Don’t walk in front of a freight train
2 Cor 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. I believe in Your report. Life and death are in the tongue. Heart clean, walk right.
Our life with Christ requires faith from beginning to end.
Faith is essential to our walk with Christ.
Deut 8: 2,3 Humble you- first you to know what’s in your heart.
Faith in God will take us every place we need to go. Gal 6:9 Due season we will reap if we do not give up.
Faith allows us to see the invisible reality of God’s power and kingdom  Wants to show you who He is and what He can do.
It is the means by which we relate to God and it inspires us to face the unknown with certainty. Proverbs 3:5-6
We must trust in God. Our life with Christ requires Faith.
The more we know about Faith and power through the Holy Spirit. It is an incredible journey.
Deut. 8:2-3 God tests you and then blesses you.
Don’t give up. Keep on Keeping on. Determined-Deligent- Persistent
2 Cor 4:16-17 Tough times right now. Never give up.
Galations 6:9 Let us not grow weary in doing good for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
STAY IN FAITH.


Faith Cometh (Hold On)

Wednesday evening
Pastor Gloria
 
Hosea 4:6 My people perish for lack of knowledge.  Everything in the Word of God is truth.  Satan doesn’t want you to believe that Jesus is the healer.  When God steps into your life it is called intervention. If you don’t believe God, He isn’t going to heal you. God works in different ways. You can be healed and still go to hell.
Don’t lay hands on the sick if you can’t see them healed.
Matthew 15:26 Healing and deliverence is the children’s bread.  God wants you to be lifted up.  Healing is in God’s hands. People want to see a miracle, but they don’t want to serve God. Believe first.
Ephesians 4:11 The gifts of God.
1. Insight
2. Edifying the body of Christ.
3. A new dimension of faith.(will come alive)
4.  Millions or billions who have not or never will experience the delivering power of God.
5. Continue in prayer until you have developed a real living faith in God.
6. Healing is not based on what you think, but what you KNOW from God’s Word. James 5:16
Romans 10:17o Now Faith cometh… Hearing…Hearing…Hearing the Word of God. 
7. Faith takes time to develop through Reading the Word-Studying the Word, Hearing the Word. Luke 4:2-4 
Proverbs 22:4

Psalm 107:9  He satisfies the longing soul and the hungry soul he fills with good things.
We need to go deeper, draw closer to God.  Put Him first. Listen for His voice.  Speak to me, Lord,  and I will obey.
Don’t put confidence in things around you- not your own desires. He satisfies the hungry soul.  Only God can fill the empty spot inside.  I want Jesus more than anything around me.  Those who want more, He will take deeper.

Pastor Gloria
Sunday Morning
 
The I Am Is with you and for you and He is with you in your weakness.
Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
If you live by flesh, you die.  You can’t have your own agenda. You must be led by the Spirit. Many trials come to the righteous. There will be suffering in this present time.  Get your focus back on God. What have you allowed to get you down?  Do what God wants you to do. Satan wants you to lose focus and give up. Who shall bring charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. He is with you, He is for you. Don’t allow the enemy to take your focus off God.  Be accountable to God and to one another. Satan will remind you of who you were.
Numbers 14:9-10 The Lord is with us.  We are more than able.
Corinthians 4:18 We look not to things that are seen, but to those things that are unseen. 1) Things that are seen are transient, things that are unseen are eternal.

what is and Get your eyes on the Lord.

Hearts on Fire for God (Everlasting Love)

Sunday Morning
Pastor Gloria
 
Luke 24:13-35 
Matthew 6:21-24 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The road is narrow and few find it. Come out from among them and be ye separate.  Do you love Me more?
Get rapture ready.
Too  busy to serve Me? No man can share My glory.  Get in order.  Get in the Word. Live the Word. Better listen to what God is saying. Watch what you get involved in.
You can either see or you can’t see. No one can serve two masters.  Actions speak louder than words. You cannot serve God and money.  Who persuaded you away from the truth?  Where is your devotion? Time to get the fire again.
Genesis 15:17 God confirmed His covenant with Abraham.  It was a smoking furnace and a burning lamp that passed between the pieces of the sacrifice.
Luke 24:25-27, 
Luke 10:38:42 Mary-Martha

The Presence of God. 
Hearts on fire for the presence of God. 
Ways to put the fire out:
Pour water on it.
Smother it out.
Just neglect it, stop putting fuel on it. Eventually burn out.
It’s the same with our hearts toward God.
The only way to keep burning is don’t neglect.
Luke 24:25-27 Did not our hearts burn within us?
Fire ignited by scripture. God’s Word is powerful!. Scripture will change your life. Our walk with God will be intensified by communion with Him. Luke 10:38-42 Mary Martha.
