#GodsPresenceAlways
“God is always there with you and I. God's presence never departs. Jonah fled. Jonah fled the will of God. By the way, you and I sometimes flee the will of God, but God's presence never leaves. No matter how far away we get, no matter how far we run, no matter no matter how far we try to go to get away from the things of God, God is always right there. Praise the Lord for that. God never departs. Jonah fled God's will, not God's presence. No matter where a believer wanders, God's presence, I believe, goes with him. You can't outrun the love of God. You can't outrun the Holy Spirit of God.”

“Most often, Satan uses fear of man, fear of what others may say, fear of what others may do if they resent or take offense at our confession of Christ. Proverbs chapter 29 has a verse near the end says, the fear of man brings a snare. A snare being a self springing bird trap that when maybe they peck at some grain or something, caught. The fear of man brings a snare. What will others think? Snap. Gotcha. The message is that Christ is the true and only son of God. Israel's messiah and the light for the Gentiles, that's most of us, the ransom for all sinners. This is what Christians are to believe and to confess and to say and to own about Jesus. And what a privilege it is, but it's a message that rebellious hearts ridicule and revile. Shall we confess this plainly, or do we think about what our fellow man is gonna think about us? Does fear of man snap, take the word from our tongues?”

“That I think is a parable about the Christian faith. There are times when god's ways are obvious and clear, Then there are also times when we find ourselves in the dark and where God is indeed hidden. But instead of speculating, we let him be God, and we trust that he is still the mighty warrior, especially in Jesus Christ. And so it is that even though we do not see him, yet we trust him. And there will come a day at the end of time when we will be called from our graves and we will enter into that eternal where all will be made clear because we will have won that race. We have fought the good fight, and we will enjoy that new creation, new bodies for old, for all eternity because of how god has revealed himself to you in Jesus Christ.”

“I think one of the biggest leadership mistakes today both in churches and in businesses is confusing visibility with impact. So you can have a polished image, a growing platform, a really slick social media campaign, and not actually help anybody. But a good society asks better questions. Are people healthier? Are families stronger? Are teams thriving? Do people feel seen? And most importantly, is hope on the rise? That's the kind of leadership I wanna be a part of. As a pastor, I've learned a lot from organizational leadership and systems thinking and the business world, but honestly, of the best leadership principles have been present in the Methodist movement since its very beginning. Listen well, stay grounded, organize wisely, care deeply, and keep the mission bigger than yourself.”

“Have you ever prayed like that? Have you said those words to other people but maybe not to God? Have you experienced it and held it in and been able to say, this is this is beyond what I can bear? Or maybe you've not even been able to put it into words, but you're holding it but not releasing it to God because it doesn't sound like a very holy prayer. But what we have been learning is that the Psalms give us permission to say exactly what we think, exactly what we feel, exactly what we're believing in that moment. It doesn't have to pass the litmus test of perfect theology. And I love that about the Psalms that God did not edit that out of his book. There are things that are written in the Psalms that are not true of God, but they are true of the human's experience, right, of what we feel, of what we think, of how we perceive it, and we're able to say it. And God isn't saying, don't say that. God says, bring it to me.”

“So, some practical definitions here that I want to share with you. Idle words are the words that are careless, untrue, harmful, empty or spiritually unprofitable. Speech that does not reflect the heart submitted to God. These are the things that we're talking about. Idle words are not merely words that accomplishes nothing, they are words that reveal a heart disconnected from God's purposes. God hears every word but he especially values words that encourage, edify and glorify him. So, may I just kind of pause here a moment and tell you that our communications within our body of believers, this is a family of believers, is that we speak to edify one another. We don't we don't curse, we don't talk down, we don't bludgeon other people with our words but we are there to uplift them and encourage them in any way possible. And even if you you have a smidgen of dislike to those people which you should get rid of that, even talking to them in a polite and correct and uplifting way is demanded by Jesus. Jesus wants us to uplift one another and speak good things that are edifying.”

“If you're looking for the end of it, this is it. God, help us tonight that we never get lost while living in the father's house. I'm reaching for somebody right now. You follow all the rules. You live all the standards. You give when you're asked. You serve when needed. But dear god, what is the condition of your heart? Yeah. I'm holy on the outside, but is my soul right? Your works will not save you. Your good deeds will not save you. Being in communion with the father is what will save you. So the whole time the story was not just about a prodigal son, but there were two prodigals in this parable. One returned and was restored back. The others, his heart was revealed, and he was made bitter. Two sons that at different times in their life, both disregarded the relationship with the father. Two lost sons, one lost in rebellion, one lost in self righteousness. Lord, no matter what side I'm on tonight, I wanna get back into relationship with you. Would you stand with me very quickly and lift your hands?”

“God is taking all the past and all the pain and suffering of the past and he's bringing it around and weaving it all together for your good. That's what he's doing. He's at work in doing that. God seeks what has been driven away, what you think you lost. God is at work redeeming that. All that we do and experience in this life then is not futile, but ultimately for our good and his glory and therefore you can rest in the sovereignty of God. So let's review the four pillars of strength. God has a purpose in all things and it's good. God's plan is mysterious. I can trust him. Enjoy life today. Enjoy it. Rest in the sovereignty of God.”

“A few observations. The temple was full of activity but empty of devotion. In a similar way, the church can be crowded with people but vacant of worship. God forbid that we ever become a place where if Jesus were to visit, he would look around, see everything, and leave. God's house had become profitable but no longer prayerful. You see, when convenience replaces consecration, worship becomes corruption. When convenience replaces consecration, worship becomes corruption. If our service to God is merely out of what's convenient, we do it when we have time to do it. We talk about Christ with our neighbors over the back fence only when it's convenient to do so. Then our worship really just becomes corrupt.”

“James does not say, find the smartest person in the room. He does not say, find the fastest answer. He says, if you need wisdom, ask God. Because information and wisdom are not the same thing. Information tells us what is, wisdom helps us understand what to do with it, and wisdom ultimately comes from God. What about praying? The same is true of prayer. AI can generate beautiful prayers, And there's nothing wrong with those prayers because prayer is is something that we mean from the heart, prayer that we read in scripture. I can I can read scripture? I can read Psalm 23, and that become a prayer. But if we're using AI to craft our prayers, I wanna remind everyone in this place, prayer has never been about finding the exact right wording. Prayer is about relationship. It is about trust. It is about surrender. Prayer is communion with God.”
