Compassion
Despite us being vocal about the real God that we serve, there are still aspects of God that we really don't comprehend. That aspect of God is compassion. How can a perfect God care and move on behalf of people that can continually disappoint Him? Our scripture reveals our God is full of compassion, that's who he is.

Staying Grounded
In everyone of us is the desire to be seen and recognised. That was the motivating mindset behind the construction of the tower of Babel.

Our lives are all impacted by the people who have gone before us, laying down their lives for our freedom. It's one thing to do it for people and a place that you love but what if those people don't reciprocate the same feelings.

Holdfast
What or who do you turn to when faced with a trial in life. The word holdfast carries a profound imagery and meaning. What we have to recognise is that God is always moving and its our responsibility to actively pursue God. If we are ever going to experience all the blessings and miracles that only God can provide it will take us striving to be where He is, never the other way around.

Only one God
With the vast growth in our population, there has been a rapid growth in different of beliefs. The question that can be brought up regularly is, who is right? What separates our God from any other is the reality that he is omnipresent. All places at all times. What makes Him worthy of continual praise is His ability to answer our prayers. Our challenge comes when we, instead of working towards accomplishing His will, we try to force the hand of God to accomplish our selfish will. Those who try this do this to their own peril.

God’s Good Pleasure
We serve a God that loves it when His people place priority on Him. Our life of dedication and being surrendered is what brings God pleasure. When we understand the gravity of compromise, we do everything in our power to prevent ourselves from ever going down that path.

Getting the Anointing
One of the greatest misconceptions is that God only hands out his favour, dominion and anointing to a few select people. Truth is when we position ourselves to receive from God, He is faithful to pour it out. When we put Him first in our lives, make Him the focus we come to realise we become perfect candidates for His anointing.

Anxiety is at an all time high, with people reacting in all manners of ways. One of the side affects of this anxiety is involving our hearing, it seems as though the more anxious we are the harder of hearing we get.

Revelation

A Good Christian
Many fail to understand that we are multi dimensional creatures. Our inability to be able to check and deal with each dimension causes a breakdown in our lives.

A Lucky Day
Most people base their human existence on the mere hope that luck will fall on them. This mythical mindset has been the cause for much heart ache but also because of its effects on us personally. We can’t allow the mindset of luck to bleed into our Christian thinking process. Understand God knows and orchestrates all things, it’s for us to submit and obey, this experiencing His blessing and protection.

Atonement
Many of us go through life trying our best to achieve all that we desire. We can transfer this mentality into our spiritual walk with Jesus. The fact is that we can not do anything to achieve salvation. What we find is that because God seeks an atonement between us and Him. It’s only through Jesus that we can achieve and accomplishing anything desirable.

There are many illustrations in the word of God regarding flames or fires. A flame can also describe a drive or passion inside of us. One thing we learn in this sermon is that when ever selfish desires overpower Godly desires the flame dies.

More effort needs to be put on the state of our spirit but for us to do this we must grasp the significant roles our soul and body play.

Begotten of Christ
The search for trust worthy influencers is at an all time low. People today pride themselves on their ability to live double lives, many with multiple personalities. The word of god has something to say about this. Paul describes himself not as a teacher but a father. Thus giving him a more intimate, more personal reason for interest. Do you have a spiritual father. One that looks out for your interest? Paul teaches as the importance of being begotten of Jesus Christ.
