Grace Church Sermons

"Do not let your heart envy sinners, But be zealous for the fear of the Lord all the day; For surely there is a hereafter, And your hope will not be cut off." Psalm 23:17-18

"But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus," Romans 3:21-24

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." - II Timothy 3:16-17

"And we are witnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed by hanging on a tree. Him God raised up on the third day, and showed Him openly, not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead. And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead. To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.” Acts 10:39-43

"A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, Loving favor rather than silver and gold." Proverbs 22:1

"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:14-15 NKJV

You were chosen and prayed for by Jesus just as the disciples in the upper room were. The world may not see Jesus, but it does see Christians. What are they seeing in you as Jesus abides in you?

Do you feel like you are in a "Time Out?" You have a heart for service or ministry, or maybe you have a vision, but it feels like nothing is happening. Paul can relate, and he will tell you that God has a plan!

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him, he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. - Hebrews 12:1-2

Wherever the Lord leads you, you can trust and know His hand will provide.

We are preparing for Easter with our annual easter fast, but why? What and who are you fasting for?

"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me." Galatians 2:20 (NKJV)

Doing business the Lord's way. There is no separation between worship and business practices. All should be done unto the Lord.

The Lord used the least likely candidate to spread the gospel and grow the Church. Saul was a persecutor of the Church but when He met Christ his life was transformed and he was given a new name. Paul repented and became the spokesperson for the Church, proclaiming the name of Jesus. God picks the ones no one would expect as visible proof of what God's grace can do. The Lord used Paul for great things in His name, and the Lord wants you too! Follow God in obedience and be ready to go!

The Gospel was mean to be shared. Spread the good news in obedience to the Lord! Share in the Love of Christ!

"The fear of the Lord leads to life, And he who has it will abide in satisfaction; He will not be visited with evil." Proverbs 19:23

We live in a world that is used to supply and demand. What happens when this "consumerism" mentality enters the church? Or our hearts?

Prudent: wise, judicious, shrewd, advisable, sensible, wary...This is the wife He wants.

Whose marriage are we talking about? Is it the earthly marriage between husband and wife, or is it the coming marriage of Jesus Christ and the Church? The answer is...yes!

Despite Persecution, the Church grew and spread over the Earth. Be careful not to speak ill will, or harm others for their sins. Spread the Love of God to everyone and let His light shine!
