This is a time when we celebrate God’s power. At this feast, we celebrate that God delivered the Children of Israel from slavery in Egypt after the sacrifice of the Passover Lamb— and He delivers us from sin because of the incredible work of Jesus. He cleanses us, as well, making us completely righteous. This celebration begins the Biblical calendar.

The flip-side, however, is that we can take heart- because He has already overcome the world.
In other words, even though we face trials, we know the end of the story. As such, we live FROM victory rather than simply contending FOR victory.
We can gain the most in the hard places
There are some things, some treasures, which require tests and trails in order to receive.

And the prophets of God were with them, supporting them” (NIV).
Here, we see that—
God gave his builders— workers like Zerubbabel— vision to work.
And...
He sent prophets (His messengers) to confirm HIs power and presence with them.
During that season, Zerubbabel faced opposition. Some people didn’t believe the dreams could come to pass; others outright worked against him.
But God’s messengers remind...2022-08-3029 minFreedom PodcastBegin AgainThis is a season in which, for many of us, it’s time to get up and go— again.
We see this in the example of a little-known Old Testament hero, Zerubbabel.
He was a Babylonian Jew who returned to Jerusalem at the head of a band of Jewish exiles and became governor of Judaea under the Persians. Influenced by the prophets Haggai and Zechariah, he rebuilt the Temple (see Haggai 2:23).
In his story, we see that when he began to rebuild, the prophets (and God’s voice) returned…

Paul tells us, “It is for freedom Christ set you free” (Galatians 5:1).
We’ve created a simple acronym to help us better flesh out what this freedom looks like—
F = Finding your identity is Christ
R = Realigning with God’s times and seasons
E = Engaging with spiritual community
E = Exploring our gifts and calling
D = Demonstrating God’s gifts
O = Opening our hearts to the poor
M = Making Jesus famous

Word Alive International OutreachJesus is Already Here #1 - 1000 Houses Of LIght (Kent Mattox)In this sermon of the week, Kent Mattox covers the story of Zacchaeus. He brought salvation to Zacchaeus' entire house. This concept connects to Rosh Chodesh. God wants us to celebrate the monthly cycles. Rosh Chodesh is a time to hear what God is saying to us. When we celebrate Rosh Chodesh, we're actually bringing Heaven closer to Earth. We believe that this is a way for us to realign not only our houses, but our communities, and regions with God's purpose.
