Our tendency is to put our confidence in ourselves. Our confidence is ONLY to be found in Jesus Christ. Rejoice in the Lord; serve (worship) God by His Spirit; boast in Jesus.
God's mercy is for all people and is too vast to remain in us, but overflows to those around us.
To build relationship with God we must first understand our sin, God's remedy for that sin and, that He has something better in store for you.
The pursuit and embrace of God is full of amazing benefits, as Jesus brings us to our Abba Father God.
Stop living in the dark, get into the light and consider the big picture.
Positional and practical sanctification; God's part, our part; personal and relational implications.
The source and response of his exaltation; our response to His Lordship
Are we learning from Jesus, in fellowship with the Holy Spirit and sowing seeds of unity?
6The Lorship of Jesus defines our conduct, relationships and our suffering.
God is a God of order. Godly order in His church - pastors, small groups, elders, and congregants.
God refines our faith, leads through faith and God is always there.
Why was Joseph God's choice? Joseph was a righteous man, he was faithful, he was gentle and compassionate; Joseph's choices came with a cost; Joseph loved and cared for the body of Christ.
Broken silence; the significance of Bethlehem; unlikely messengers; the Heavenly proclamation; joy amidst the ordinary; the application of great joy.
Mary was familiar with God's voice. Lk 1;28, 19:26; Mat 5:6,8; Mk 4:24-25. Mary had an attitude of expectancy. Lk 1:37. Mary was willing to be interrupted. Lk 1:38, 46-54, 2:35; Duet 22:22.
Will you give Jesus your list today? Hope is expectation and it is action. The object and basis of hope determine the strength and certainty of the act of hoping. The biblical reality of hope is based on Almighty God Himself - who He is, what He is like, His word, His promises and how He acts in the world. We can have a certain and sure hope because of Jesus. When you realize Jesus brings unexpected hope to unexpected places, you can become in a world and that to unexpected places. Lord Jesus, I'm asking You to bring Your hope to this person, place, or situation today.
We grow to be like Jesus when we give our body as a living sacrifice, shake off the worls by shaping our mind and allow God to work.

Start with my heart (Ps 51:17, 78:8; 1 Pet 3:15; Mat 6:19-21,24) Give willingly and generously Experience God's joy
Fellowship in common identity in Christ. Fellowship through participation with Paul. Fellowship through a shared future hope of God, faithfully completing what He had begun in them. Fellowship together starts with loving in the right way, continues through priorities, and culminates as it bears good fruit which glorifies God and brings unity in the Church.
Level One Gratitude - God, I'm thankful for ... Level Two Gratitude - I'm thankful even though ... Level Three Gratitude - I'm thankful because ...
Following Paul’s example, we should speak words of blessing and grace to one another, thank God for one another, and pray for one another … with JOY.
We are made; we belong; we're called out; it stretches us. We're centered on Jesus; we're focusing on a purpose that really matters.
