THE WORD
(London, Ky.)
Imagine a daily routine in life. Do you spend time in the Word every day? The bible is the Word of God and it is a secure foundation when everything seems to be shaking.
A young person was recognized at New Hope Church of God in Corbin, Ky., for achieving For hard work. New Hope is a church that recognizes young people when they do something good.
New Hope just finished a series LETTERS TO THE CHURCH. Now the church is in a series BECOMING. LETTERS TO THE CHURCH asked the question what and this series tells the how; how do we become an OVERCOMING church.
Pastor Ronnie Doyle preached 9 a.m., and Pastor Paula Farer preached 11 a.m. BECOMING A CHURCH OF THE WORD from Matthew 7:21-28.
People often times doo not listen to people they act like hearing especially children. However when mistake is made people always come back to those with more wisdom.
When you build a building you want to make sure the foundation is secure. New Hope is in a building project and the foundation needs to be secure not only for the building also for the people.
Storms will come to everyone in life. In Matthew 5 it says it rains on the just and the unjust. Everyone will experience a loss of someone, a health issue, or car or house problems; those are seemingly storms, some storms are worse than others.
In Matthew 7 there was two people with people with two ideas on how to build. The same storm hit both houses. One house stood the storm because it had a strong foundation. The word is a sure foundation. One house fell because no foundation.
When you go through storms in life just remember Jesus; there used to be bracelets with WWJD. WHAT WOULD JESUS DO. In Philippians 2 it says ‘ let this mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus.’
Pastor Paula said ‘last year she was going through a storm and had no air in lungs was singing THIS MEANS WAR.
Everyone is in war today. However the word is something that will stand the storms of life. Psalm 119 thy word is a light to my path thy word is also something keeps you from sin.
People are not going to want the God you serve if you are not living a word filled life. There is a community that needs won for Jesus.
There was a renewed challenge to spend 15minutes in reading the word of God, spend 10 minutes in prayer, attend 1worship service, get involved in a group, and finally get someone and reach out them.
There was conviction in the church and seeds was planted.
It is time everyone get in the word it is the only secure foundation.
