Sunday Morning Service - What Are You Willing to Do?


Text:  John 5:1-16

We recently finished our series on Faithfulness. Before we get into the next series, we're going to take a look at the miracle Jesus did at the Pool of Bethesda.

The man Jesus approached had an infirmity for 38 years. Jesus asked him, "Do you want to be made well?" This might seem like a no-brainer since the individual was in a place where healing took place. Yet, just because a person is going after something doesn't mean they really want it.

He doesn't give a direct, "Yes or No," answer, but proceeds to explain why it was impossible for him to get healing. An angel would come down at certain times and stir the waters. The first person into the pool would be healed. Alas, he had no one to help him and someone always beat him into the water.

As years went by without healing, this could well have tempered his expectations. There's something known to do to obtain healing, but he sees a hindrance. How terrible it is to be pursuing a goal you feel you cannot attain because of obstacles you cannot change.

How does Jesus respond to the man and what can we do to have our prayers answered? To hear the entire message, please visit our website and click on the Media Tab. You can listen online, download it to your MP3 player, or podcast.

Sunday Morning Series - The Need For Faithfulness - Surrounded


Text:  Numbers 13:1 - 14:10

What makes people turn away from being faithful? Peter walked with the Lord during His earthly ministry, but in a matter of hours he denied Jesus.

Twelve men were chosen by Moses, one from each tribe, to spy out the land of Canaan. Yet 10 of them brought back an evil report. These weren't just any men. They were highly respected and were selected from among millions of people.

What happened? They embarked on the mission for three main purposes:

1.  To check out the land.
2.  To check out the inhabitants
3.  To bring back sample of the fruit of the land.

They were in Canaan for 40 days, and did each of these things. However, when they returned, they presented the facts in such a way that the people became afraid. Somewhere during that period of time, they allowed their discoveries to change what they believed from God's Word. They became fearful. When Caleb saw the effect their report was having, he stepped up and told the people they were well able to take the land. Joshua agreed with him, but the damage was done.

They thought God was leading them to a land where they were greater than the inhabitants. However, God sent them to a land where He was greater than the inhabitants.

Sunday Morning Service - What Lies Beneath and Above


Text:  2 Chronicles 22-24 & Various

We're taking a short break from our series on faithfulness.

In I Chronicles 16:8 it says, "Oh, give thanks for the LORD! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!"

Our main text gives the story of Joash, a king of the southern kingdom of Judah. Remember, all of the kings in the northern kingdom of Israel were evil, while some of the kings of Judah were good. Joash started off as a really good king, but ended up a really bad king.

When the king of Judah died, Queen Athaliah usurped the throne. She had all the king's sons killed. Jehoiada, the priest, and his wife, Jehoshabeath, saved young Joash's life. They hid him until he reached seven years of age.

At that time, Jehoiada brought Joash to his rightful place of rulership. Queen Athaliah heard about it and entered the Temple saying, "Treason! Treason!" Jehoiada gave the order to kill her and anyone who followed her outside. This was accomplished, and Jehoiada directed the temple of Baal and its priest to be destroyed.

Now the Temple of God was in disrepair, so the Levites were instructed to quickly restore it. However, they did not follow instructions concerning timing. What happened? Although the worship of God was restored, not everyone agreed. So, they stayed quiet and waited for an opportunity to reverse things.

Think about roaches. When it's dark, they come out and operate under cover. If someone flips on a light, they scurry for their hiding places. That's pretty much how evil operates. When the light of God is shining, evil goes underground.

When Jehoiada died at the ripe old age of 130, some leaders came to King Joash and suggested they bring back the worship of Baal. Joash agreed with them. How does one so blessed, spiritually aware, and having a heart for the things of God get to such a place? When Jehoiada's son came to correct him, he had him executed. Imagine that - he killed the son of Jehoiada, the one who rescued and hid him from Queen Athaliah.

Who were these leaders who came to Joash? Perhaps they were the ones unhappy with following the Lord. Once Jehoiada died, they saw an opportunity to manipulate the king.

Evil lurks and creates situations with a goal that hides its true intent. Daniel, Gideon, and Jesus also came up against those who said one thing but had a hidden agenda.

Sunday Morning Series - The Need for Faithfulness - "No Goats Should Have to Die"


Text:  Genesis 17:1-36

Joseph was the 11th son of Jacob. All his other sons, with the exception of Benjamin, were born to him by Leah, Bilhah, and Zilpah (the last two women were Leah and Rachel's maids). Jacob loved Rachel and until Joseph was born, she was barren.

Jacob greatly favored Joseph and made him a coat of many colors. This was no ordinary coat/tunic. Many have pointed out this was actually a long-sleeved garment, denoting authority. It's the kind of garment management would wear, while short-sleeved robes were worn by workers. (Think in terms of white-collar versus blue-collar workers.)

When Jacob sent Joseph out to report on the condition of his flocks, it was not to spy on the brothers. It was a business situation. Joseph accurately reported what was happening. The brothers involved were not those born of Leah or Rachel, but by their maids. In the context of that time, they didn't hold as high a position as the others.

The problems between the brother were not about Joseph's reporting. They were jealous that Joseph had the love of their father.

When Joseph started having dreams and related them to his parents and brothers, he wasn't bragging. Just think, they were the only ones who worshipped God. All the people around them were idol worshippers. Who else would he go to but his parents and brothers to seek insight about his experiences?

The brothers not only had problems with Joseph, but they were divided by their parentage. To become a nation, they needed to be united.

When they sold Joseph into Egypt, they figured they were rid of this favorite son. Maybe they'd have a chance to be valued. Yet, Jacob never got over losing Joseph, believing him to be dead. Their plan backfired.

The enemy tries to short-circuit God's plans for mankind. God took what they meant for evil and turned it around for Joseph's good, as well as his whole family.
