Bible Verse of The Day – 8-22-18

Luke 12:6-7 (NKJV) 6 “Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten before God. 7 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

We are of more value to God than even the sparrows that He does not forget.

Do you believe this with your heart today?

Many years ago, we had just come home from church. We were in a very hard place in our lives and we needed something from God. We needed to know He was there, that He was with us.

You know those moments when you just long to see one little thing? That’s all it will take to let you know it’s OK and It will all work out.

As we walked toward the door to our home, Pastor Curt saw a sparrow sitting on the ground. He slowly walked up to it, reached down and stroked the sparrow’s head. And the sparrow stayed right there, letting him pet him for as long as he wanted to.

It was in that moment that God brought great comfort to Pastor Curt, and he was encouraged and lifted up in his spirit.

God speaks to us in many ways and He will bring reassurance. We need to be open and listen.

He cares for us deeply. He is there with us and will help us if we trust Him long enough to let Him see things through.

Click to watch the video nowGreetings in Jesus’ name! 

How does God speak to us? How do we know when we have heard Him? 

These are questions that most of us have, and they are good questions! 

We just released our latest video that covers this topic. 

Please click here to watch the video now. 

God speaks to us more often than we realize. But because we aren’t prepared to hear Him, we can often miss Him. 

Please click here to watch the video now. 

We can also miss Him if He speaks in a way that we weren’t expecting. 

We hope you’ll take a few minutes to give this a watch.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-8-16

Matthew 16:17 (NKJV)17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.

God will reveal certain things to us at times that aren’t necessarily revealed to others. God is not untouchable, unrelatable or unreachable. He has a One-on-one relationship with those of us who want it.

He will show us things by His Spirit, giving us knowledge and understanding of things that we otherwise may not get on our own.

One of the things I struggle with is that when God reveals something to me through His Spirit, I can’t just run with it on my own.

I had to learn that what is revealed by the Spirit, I need to further seek guidance as to how to see it through or what to do with it. I have to ask Him, “is there something on my end I may need to do? What step do I take to see it through, etc.?”.

I learned that I need to wait for God’s response and if there is NO response, then I just need to sit tight and let Him move in whatever way He desires, in His timing.

Be patient. God will reveal things through His Spirit and give us direction as we seek Him.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-30-14

John 14:26 (NKJV) 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

Some people question whether God still speaks to anyone today. They can’t hear His voice, so they just figure that God stopped speaking to us at some point in the distant past and that we’re on our own here on earth now.

We’re here today to tell you that God does still speak to us! We just need to learn how to listen for Him.

As mentioned in the above verse, the Holy Spirit is our helper. God sent Him to us after Jesus ascended to heaven. Jesus had promised that we would not be left alone and that He would send a helper for us.

When God speaks to us today, He does so through His spirit. He speaks to many of us on a regular basis, but if we don’t sharpen our discernment and learn how to hear His voice, we will miss Him most of the time.

I’d like to give you an example of how God speaks to us, from a real-life event that took place during the last several days. And I am sharing this not to lift myself up or to impress anyone or be looked up to by anyone, but to prove that God does still speak to us.

Last week I went to a local department store where a good friend works. As I backed into the parking space, I heard God tell me to give this friend a hug when I see him. So as I walked into the store, I kept my eye out for him. For whatever reason, I didn’t see him, so I went about my business.

Late last night I received a message from this person, letting me know that his wife was in intensive care in the local hospital and had been there for the past 9 days.

And as he told me of the horrendous ordeal they had been through, including respiratory failure, kidney failure and heart failure, I realized why God had told me that he needed a hug!

You see, God knew what was needed and He conveyed it to me. It was up to me to sort it out. Because I didn’t see my friend in the store, I assumed that maybe I had misunderstood and I didn’t follow up on it.

Had I followed up and given my friend a call, I would have known a week sooner about what was going on. Nevertheless, because I heard God speak to me last week, I knew exactly what needed to be done when we got the news last night.

And needless to say, we visited the ICU today and our friend got a great big hug.

See? God does still speak to us! Amen!
