God uses the foolish to confound the wise.
The world cannot understand Christ’s sacrifice. But there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for another.

Pastor Gray expounds on Psalm 37.
Trust in the Lord, wait patiently for Him, cease from anger, rest in Him.
Culture doesn’t change the church; the church is meant to change the culture. There are two things are on the prophetic horizon: either the judgment of God or revival.
How do I respond to the day in which I’m living and to the culture I live in? Listen in as Pastor Doc Shell explains.
Don’t lose your passion for Jesus or the fire of God.
Pastor Bill Grace examines James 1:5-8, asking for wisdom and not doubting.
Sometimes we get into a place where we doubt whether Jesus will perform His promises for us. Jesus answered John the Baptist’s doubts by stating the miracles that were happening. God still uses men and women today to perform His miracles.
There is a continual transformation in this life. Beholding the Lord and His glory, we are “transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Cor. 3:18).
There is a continual unveiling, a constant revelation, a repeated clothing from above. I want you to promise God never to look back, never to go back. Nothing of what the Spirit has said is done away with. I promised the Lord that I would never allow myself to doubt His Word.
Trust God to transform the smallest faith into a mighty kingdom.
The mustard tree is drought tolerant, and if we have faith even the size of a tiny mustard seed, we too can tolerate the dry times in our lives, the difficult growing seasons of a Christian. And even when we are “planted” in poor soil we can still grow, even if we only have a small amount of faith.
Incidentally, the mustard tree has many uses. Mustard trees have been found in various locations throughout the world. Even though it’s one of the smallest seeds, the trees can grow up to 20 feet tall and 20 feet wide. The tree can grow in arid, dry climates and thrive even in clay or sandy soil. It can grow in hot, dry weather or cool, wet climates.
I see the mustard seed as being symbolic of faith in that our faith can be tested in the “dry times,” the most difficult of circumstances (drought, poor soil, and in clay or sandy ground). Also, even if the tree is cut down to the trunk, it can grow back again, so the analogy is that even during times of pruning, the believer can overcome and come back stronger than ever.
Job prayed from a perspective of fear, “the thing I greatly feared has come upon me.” (Job 3:25) That was not a prayer of victory or praise.
Satan attacks us in 3 areas: our wealth, our children, our body. Listen in as Pastor Gray examines how Job prayed out of fear, and that we need to pray from faith.
Through prayer and gentle guidance we may truly make a difference in someone’s life. So speak kindly, with mercy and grace. Speak distinctly, as we mete out counsel to those we love, cherish, and adore.
Please don’t wait until a crisis arises. Commune with Him daily and seek His face. Plan, pray, persevere, for we are here today, tomorrow gone!
Pastor Gray expounds on letting the Egyptian gods contend for themselves. Of course they couldn’t; they didn’t exist. So the Egyptians had to call on Jehovah.
From Judges 6:12, Pastor looks at Gideon and his army of 300 against the Midianites. There is no god that can contend with Jehovah. Jesus destroyed Hell itself, and there is no god that can contend with Jesus!
Where is God leading us? He says, “I have a plan. Now trust Me.”
Trust must be the foundation in any relationship. No matter if it is in a marriage, a friendship, a business relationship – and certainly in your relationship with Me, your heavenly Father.
Love cannot grow where there is no trust. How can you trust someone who doesn’t do what they say – what they promise? My Word is My promise to you. As it is written, it will be!
Trust must be built on action. You cannot trust in someone who does not do what they say.
I promise to never leave you – and I won’t. I promise to guide your every step and light the path on which you walk – when you are obedient to My Word.
Can you trust – believe? Your decision will be your future. Trust in Me – not in anything in this world.
My love is not temporary, but everlasting – forever!
