The Hall of Fame of Faith

It is by faith that Abraham was honored and used to build nations; he obeyed and trusted in God when told to leave his homeland and venture to an alien land that became an inheritance to his descendants. This showed confidence in God, His provision, and promise. This same faith also allowed Abraham and his wife Sarah, who were old and childless, to have children by which to build this nation to greater numbers than there were stars in the sky or sand at the beach. Then, Abraham set out to offer up his son Isaac to God. Isaac grew up to love and honor God with confidence, because he knew what God was yet to do. His promise was secure. His son Jacob also lived a life of faith and kept the blessing of God flowing to his son Joseph, whose descendants would come back to inherit and take Read more

Faith

What is Faith? The answer to the question, “what is Faith?” is both simple and profound, yet it is not simplistic. Genuine faith is our full confidence, trust, and assurance that are exercised in that what we hope for will indeed happen. It is the passion and conviction of our faith that Jesus Christ is real, even when we cannot see Him or what He has for us. We come to the realization that the experience of our knowledge and practice is impacting and not an esoteric or academic idea. Christ is real for us, both in our daily lives and in eternity. Thus, we have authentic hope—the response of our faith, evidenced as we live out our lives. We also have the confirmation of God’s approval through real, effectual faith. God did this for the people of old as well as for us, the people of now—for you. We Read more

The Full Assurance of Faith!

God calls us to persevere—no matter what. While we are here on earth, we can go before the Father in worship and prayer, boldly entering Heaven. Each Christian has the great privilege that the high priest had only once a year. We have access to Him all the time; what is greater than that? And it’s all because of the blood of Christ shed on our behalf! This is what our new life in Christ is all about; He has opened up a world for us to enter where we could never go before, all because of what He did for us. We can go into the presence of the Most Holy God, trust Him, and have confidence in Him so we can lead our lives with pure hearts, forsaking evil desires because of His promise that has been given and kept; God is trustworthy, so we can be faith-worthy.

Trusting God No Matter What

Trusting God No Matter What: Habakkuk 3:16-19 INTRODUCTION: Today is the last day in our message series on the book of Habakkuk. We have called this series, “The Journey from Doubt to Faith.” And so today’s message marks the end of the journey for Habakkuk, as we look at the closing passage from the book that bears his name. Throughout the series we have been tracing Habakkuk’s own personal journey from a place of questioning, doubt and confusion at the beginning of the book to a place of faith, hope and confidence by the end of the book. As we said in our introduction to the series: the book of Habakkuk “begins with a question mark and closes with an exclamation point.” (J. Vernon McGee) And as we close out the book today, I think you will agree that that is a very apt description for the book of Habakkuk. Read more

Godly generations

“Telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord.” Psalm 78:4 NKJV The Godly impact of one’s life touches generations and reaches eternity.Unless you understand that your brief life is a timeless connection of influence with those generations both before and after you, you may fail to live your life with Godly influence that is consequential and eternal. Man or woman, young or old, if you will be God’s love wrapped in a human heart, the Godly influence of your life will stretch well beyond your lifetime, even beyond the lifetimes of those whose lives you touch.
