Wednesday Night "The Journey

Now, I'm gonna tell you something. We need to wise up because we're gonna read a passage today where there was misconceptions. And how about us today? Are we on a praise of are we on a journey of praise and purpose? Are we on a journey to do it our way and have a Burger King faith and a Burger King life? Have it your way.

But what it is is when we surrender to God and we trust God and we put God in on the throne of our hearts, Terry, I'm telling you those valleys, big deaths, they'll still be valleys, but what we're doing is we're building bridges by faith from one mountain to the next to where we don't have to sink all the way down in the valley. But if you do, God is there. [00:57:59] (25 seconds)  #BridgesByFaith

And part of adding value is getting it right and not a half truth, but a whole truth. You can come in here and be free and set free for an hour, hour and thirty minutes from all of the pressures outside. You can let them loose and you can worship him with a crazy praise and walk out of here with a smile because remember, Satan is waiting for you as soon as you get out. You wanna be a success? Be more like Christ. I just really believe that. [01:21:11] (30 seconds)  #BeMoreLikeChrist

The world can't believe it because they come into a church that's half dead and don't see anyone excited about what they're worshiping. So, why would they want it? Or they see a group of people that wanna be meaner than Satan's sister. They see them out in the world wanting to be meaner, meaner than Satan's sister. And then we wonder why they won't come to church. We give a misrepresentation because we have been told by leaders in the past how it's supposed to be done.

So we think about that today. We're not promised and here it was they had half a truth. They were praising him as king, but they didn't listen and Satan had blinded them to the truth that Jesus had to come and die on the cross to set us free from the sins, from our sins. And it goes back to Adam, to the first sin. And Jesus was like the second Adam. [00:54:52] (34 seconds)  #DontMissTheCross

you need to understand. If you're a deacon here at this church, if you're an elder at this church, you need to understand just what Jesus said. We're supposed to be like him not what the Baptist or not what the Methodist, not what the Pentecostal, not what this one or not what that one says. We need to be what Jesus said he was. If we're emulating him, that means that we are here. I am here to serve, not to be served. Can I get an amen? Amen. That doesn't mean that you wipe your feet on me [01:02:37] (30 seconds)  #ServeDontBeServed

need to find that peace, and we need to live in peace so we can demonstrate it so our kids and our grandchildren can have peace instead of always turmoil and fight. I don't want and it says our sins shall follow us. Do you believe the bible? Three generations. If you teach your children how to fight all the time, you need to understand one thing that's gonna follow you to your great grandchildren. Possibly. But now under Jesus, even that can be broken in the name of Jesus. Do we get an amen? [01:06:57] (36 seconds)  #BreakGenerationalChains

I believe it with my whole heart. Because I love you because Christ first loved me and you need to hear the gospel to set you free. You no longer have to be under the oppression, you no longer have to be under the bondage of fear and and and and being all worked up all the time about everything. I lived in a house when I was a child. Someone would sit at the table and always had to fight with somebody. It had to be a fight all the time in the house [01:05:40] (36 seconds)  #GospelSetsYouFree
