Sunday Morning Series - Having Faith in Your Prayers - A Rock, Some Fire, and Snakes

Text:  Numbers 16:1-40

The priestly line in the Old Testament included Levi, his three sons, and their descendants. One of Levi's sons, Kohath, had four sons. Two of them were Amram and Izhar. Amram sons, Moses and Aaron, were chosen to lead Israel. Izhar's son, Korah, became dissatisfied and made accusations against the leaders.

To get you into rebellion, the enemy must get you dissatisfied. Never look at what you're called to do as a small thing. They, their families, and all their belongs end up being swallowed by the earth.

Dathan and Abiram continued their rebellion even after seeing what happened to Korah. They were instructed to fill their censers, and the Lord would show who he had chosen. They are consumed by fire. A memorial is made of the bronze censers they used. It's hammered and attached to the bronze altar.

Memorials were used not only for good things but also for bad things. On one hand they honored the deserving, while the other served as a warning to those who wanted to rebel.

Sunday Morning Series - Having Faith in Your Prayers - "Who's on First?"

Text:  Mark 11:22-26 and Various

Just like the Abbott and Costello comedy routine, "Who's on First," believers often have a communication problem when it comes to prayer. They think God has everything they need, but is that true?

If God gives us specific instructions to ask Him for something, He has it. In James 1, we're told that if we lack wisdom to ask of God, who gives liberally. So, God has wisdom. We're also told God has salvation. Again, we must ask for it and receive it.

If we already have what we need, we are to live like it's true. If I give you a pen, there's no reason for you to ask me for a pen. I already gave it to you. It's important to know what the Word says we have.

The last place we can find what we need is with others. A company has jobs. God wants you to have a job, but He doesn't have jobs. You need to prepare yourself for that job, interview, and make a favorable impression. What if others do not listen and hire you? God will put it on someone else's heart to do so.

Possible hindrances to unanswered prayer:

Unforgiveness
Unbelief

If I am not receiving the things I'm asking for, perhaps there is something I'm not understanding. Most people just keep on praying without going to the Word and seeing where they're missing it.

Sunday Morning Service - Enduring Change - How to Have Less Trouble (and More)

Text:  I Corinthians 15:58 and various

""So my dear brothers and sisters, stand strong. Do not let anything change you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your work in the Lord is never wasted." (NCV)

The Zoe kids were in the grown-up service today. What a joy to see them worshiping the Lord and participating in the object lesson.

Sometimes we're not doing a lot wrong, but just need a small adjustment. Pastor Steve demonstrated how to spin a gyroscope. They have many uses like keeping planes stable and steadying ships on the high seas. When it spins, nothing can move it in another direction. God has put a similar mechanism in us, but we can use it to reduce trouble or increase it. What are some of the things that try to get us to change rather than remain steadfast in God?

1.  In the Garden, the enemy asked a question. "Has God really said...?"  The enemy tries to make us question God's Word. "Has God really said not to fear, worry, and be anxious?" Watch out for questions that enter our minds and make us doubt the Word.

2.  Take care of our  needs (using the principles of faith for what you want). It's not about always getting what you want but seeking God's direction for your life.

3.  Matt. 4:2 - The enemy tries to get us to question who you are. He'll accuse us and tell us we're not a good wife, husband, mother, father, son, daughter, friend, Christian, etc. When this happens, answer and say, "Thank you,  Lord, that I'm a good ____, and You're teaching me more every day."

4.  Taking the easier way (an excuse to avoid struggles and suffering). When we follow God's direction, we'll get resistance. There will be struggles and sometimes suffering involved. Yet, His paths lead to life and blessings.

5.  Is it really worth it (an excuse to quit)? We get weary, and it's easy to move away from what God has called us to do. When that happens, keep obeying God's direction.
