Carmel ChurchPRAYER brings us CLOSE to God Developing a habit of morning prayer is a powerful way to deepen your connection with God and transform your life. As Psalm 27:8 reminds us, God is calling us to come and talk with Him, and when we respond, He promises to guide us on the best path (Psalm 32:8). Whether you're struggling with time or unsure where to start, follow the example of Jesus in Luke 11 and pray with intention, surrender, and trust. By making morning prayer a daily habit, you'll invite God's wisdom, provision, and protection into every aspect of your life.

Carmel ChurchYou CALL and ANGELS COME We pray for God's divine protection over our lives, families, and everything we hold dear. Through Psalm 91, we learn that God sends His angels to guard and shield us from harm, sickness, accidents, and all dangers. As believers, we have a host of angels assigned to us, surrounding us with supernatural protection. We declare God's promises and pray for His angels to surround us and keep us safe, day and night.

Carmel ChurchThe DEVIL ATTACKS you!! These TWO ways God want's us to be close to Him. But when we sin it causes separation with our heavenly Father. That's why it is important for all believers to ask God for forgiveness every morning in the Lord's Prayer. But when we don't make ourselves right with God and with others, it actually causes not only separation with God it causes us to be separated from people, or even worse, our church family.

Carmel ChurchMake a BUDGET... Because God's Blessing is COMING! One of the ways we prepare ourselves for the blessing of God is by being a good steward of what he's given us. Are YOU on a budget?

Carmel ChurchThe Practicality that comes with Prosperity How are we going to pay the bills? How am I going to get out of debt? Should I get this? Money brings up a lot of questions. Even the wealthiest of people stress about the questions that money brings. God doesn't want us to rely on ourselves when it comes to finances. But He also wants us to be wise. Jesus taught us to be good stewards with what we have, thats why creating a budget is so important for our daily lives.

Carmel ChurchDoes TITHING make you MAD? Most Christians today have a problem with tithing. But did you know that it is actually commanded by God? Not because God needs your money, He wants your heart. The purpose of tithing is to show that we are putting God first in our lives. In fact the more we allow God to be first in our lives the more God is able to come in, and bless us.

Carmel ChurchCHRISTIANS have A PROBLEM with MONEY God wants to bless you! Not just spiritually but even financially. Yep, we said it. No, this isn't prosperity gospel where everyone gets a Cadillac-- this is a biblical truth! We are God's children and it is not God's desire for us to go through life suffering or barely making it by. God wants Christians to be wealthy and extravagantly generous to others in need. If you put God FIRST in your life, there is a promise and BLESSING that is released over you. Listen to this message and if you have any questions let us know!
