Speaker: Pastor Josh Blevins

Carrying sin in our hearts will result in an ineffective and unproductive ministry, but confessing sin and returning to the Lord will bring forth fruit and blessing.

Fathering is more than simply being a dad. It is not for the faint of heart and can feel overwhelming at times. God’s Word paints the perfect picture of what every godly father should strive for and shows us how to get there. Preached at Grace Church on 06/20/2021.

Remember the past. Compare it not to the present. Trust God for greater things in the future.

If left to ourselves, we will naturally drift toward putting our plans and agendas above those of God. Therefore, we must continually fight to consider the work of God as more valuable than the things that pertain to ourselves.

Pride always brings about resistance from God; therefore a humble heart is required to experience God’s blessing and favor.

Motherhood can be difficult and filled with painful moments, but God is able to redeem the pain of motherhood and bring about blessing and fruitfulness.

Inevitably, God wants to use us for purposes bigger than what we can see and understand. Sometimes our own prejudices or preferences keep us from full obedience and blessing. God wants to realign our hearts to match his so that His plans to rescue people can be accomplished through us.

In order to continue the mission of Christ on earth, the first church needed more than its own natural resources. Today, we are in need of the same Holy Spirit power that Jesus promised to those who believe.

While failure is inevitable, it doesn’t have to be the defining characteristic of our lives or eternity. The victory of Jesus over the grave has conquered our failures and provided a living hope for every person who chooses to walk in His victory.
