Sermon clips from Oran churches

51s
“You're probably going through something right now and you say, God, I couldn't have heard your voice. This must not have been you. And I want you to know that your circumstances do not dictate the will of god. His will for you is good, and he will change circumstances wherever they be. He will change the circumstances to open the door he's called you to walk through when you, not if you, When you pray, when you fast, when you give, when you show hospitality, these are the places where God gets a hold of your life in a way that he will not otherwise get a hold of you.”
34s
“Instead, Jesus talked in very clear terms, in faith terms, about what would happen when we would do things. But we kinda make them all conditional, don't we? If you give, you will receive. No. It's when you give. It's when you pray, not if you pray. It's when you fast. I personally wish that was an if. I bet you do too. But the truth is it's a when you fast.”
32s
“You understand where I'm going with this? You can try to create the persona, but it's gonna wear thin. Jesus always talked to people as they were, not for who they were trying to be. He never spoke to the persona. He always spoke to the person. And so it's really important for us to realize that God's kingdom isn't built on what happens in front of the camera. It's built on what happens when the doors are shut and you're alone with God.”
37s
“Every time Jesus says, when you, he follows up with a then I. Every requirement is attached to a reward. Every command is tethered to a covenant. And if you're ready to stop trying and start training in your faith, in the habits of your king, get your hearts ready because God wants to move in you. Get your heart ready. Because when we do what he said to do, he's gonna do what only he can do.”
18s
“When you take your broken life to Jesus, the minute you receive him, the minute you allow what he did for you to prevail in your life, to actually work in your life, not only is the pain gone, but the cause of the pain no longer exists.”
17s
“God sets the captive free. He doesnt just forgive the captive. He offers freedom for the captive. Its so much more than just forgiveness. Its a whole new beginning.”
19s
“God has provided us with what we need to know him and to understand him at the level of our capacity. We can know God because he has revealed these things to us. The law of the Lord is not burdensome. Its perfect.”
16s
“The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commandments of the Lord are clear, giving insight for living.”
17s
“We need to rejoice tonight that he allows us to know him, he allows us to know his name, he allows us to fellowship with him, he allows us to dwell in his presence and because of that we can be transformed.”
11s
“If you confess with your mouth, the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, what? You will be saved.”
