Jesus’ parable of the wheat and the weeds reminds us of the ongoing spiritual battle in the world. God, the good sower, plants seeds of faith and goodness, while the enemy sows seeds of sin and destruction. The field, representing the world, contains both wheat (believers) and weeds (those aligned with evil). Though they coexist for now, the harvest—God’s judgment—will bring separation and clarity.
This story calls us to evaluate our role in God’s kingdom. Are we producing good fruit that nourishes others, or are we hindering God’s work like weeds? As wheat, we are planted with purpose, called to grow in faith and make a positive impact. Despite the enemy’s attempts to disrupt, God assures us that His plan will prevail.
Ultimately, this parable challenges us to live intentionally as part of God’s work, bearing fruit that glorifies Him and blesses others. Let’s remain steadfast, recognizing that God’s justice will come, and ensure that we are wheat, not weeds, in His field.

This week’s message from Matthew 13 calls us to evaluate the condition of our hearts as we respond to God’s truth. Jesus shares the parable of the sower, highlighting how truth is received in various ways depending on the soil—the heart—into which it is planted.
Through simple, relatable terms, Jesus illustrates the transformative power of God’s word when it lands on fertile ground. The truth is clear and accessible, meant to inspire change and growth in our lives. Yet, not all hearts respond the same way. Some are hardened and resistant, others are shallow and uncommitted, while some are distracted by life’s worries. The good soil, however, receives the truth and bears fruit abundantly.
This message challenges us to reflect on the state of our hearts. Are we receptive to God’s word? Are we willing to let it take root and flourish, bringing lasting change? The truth of God’s word is constant and transformative, but its impact depends on how we embrace it. Let us open our hearts and allow God’s truth to grow and bear fruit in our lives.

Truly Spiritual

Tuesday Oct 29, 2024

Tuesday Oct 29, 2024


This week, we explore what it means to respond to God from the heart and to offer ourselves in pure devotion and blessing. In Genesis 24:45, we find the servant praying silently, offering a profound reminder that God hears the quietest prayers of our hearts. The servant's experience shows us the power of inward prayers, as God answers with exact guidance, confirming the mission by bringing Rebekah to the well.
This sermon calls us to three responses: First, to commune with God in authentic, heart-led prayer. We see how prayer isn’t always about spoken words but about sincerity, as seen with Hannah in 1 Samuel, who prayed with only her lips moving, yet God heard her anguish and answered. Second, we’re encouraged to bless others from a place of genuine love, as Rebekah’s family did when they sent her with words of support and a bright future. Lastly, we’re called to meditate—like Isaac did—quieting our busy minds to truly focus on God.
Reflecting on God’s work in our lives, we find inspiration to strengthen our spiritual habits: pray sincerely, bless generously, and seek stillness with God.

In this week's sermon, we explore the servant’s response to God’s providential guidance as he seeks a wife for Isaac in Genesis 24. After witnessing how God leads him to the exact place he needs to be, the servant bows down in worship. This act of spontaneous praise reflects how we should respond when we see God’s hand at work in our lives.
We'll dive into the importance of recognizing God's providence: how He directs our steps, provides for our needs, and brings the right people into our lives at the right time. We'll also challenge ourselves to be grateful for His constant faithfulness and kindness, and to cultivate a heart of worship, acknowledging that God never abandons us.
This week, the challenge is to praise God for all that He has done, recognizing His providence in our lives, and respond with gratitude and worship.

Getting Answers to Your Prayer

Tuesday Oct 08, 2024

Tuesday Oct 08, 2024

In this week's sermon, we journey with Abraham’s servant on his assignment to find a wife for Isaac, a mission that carries tremendous weight. With all the challenges of cultural differences and traveling to foreign lands, the servant remains dependent on God. Through this story, we explore the power of simple prayers and how they lead to profound answers.
We'll look at key insights from Genesis 24 on how prayer positions us in the right place to receive God’s answers. We will also delve into the nature of prayer: directing faith toward God, praying unselfishly, praying simply, and praying specifically. As we witness the servant's journey to Nahor and the answer to his prayer, we'll be reminded that God’s providence works ahead of us, often before we even finish our prayers.
This week, the challenge is to see how relying on simple, specific prayers can bring about God’s provision in ways beyond what we could imagine.

This week's sermon, The Hardest Thing, addresses the universal experience of grief and the importance of allowing ourselves to feel and express our emotions during times of loss.Drawing from Genesis 23:1, the sermon reflects on Abraham's profound sorrow after the death of his wife, Sarah, and emphasizes the reality of emotional pain that everyone, regardless of faith, encounters.Key themes include:

Expressing Emotions: The sermon encourages listeners to find healthy ways to express their grief, whether through tears, sharing memories, or participating in rituals that honor the deceased.
The Importance of Community: Just as the Hittites supported Abraham, we are reminded of the power of community in times of loss. Being present for one another and offering support can provide comfort during the most challenging moments.
Moving Forward: While grief is a process, the sermon highlights the importance of continuing to live and make decisions, as Abraham did when he sought a burial site for Sarah. Life goes on, and so must we, even amidst our sorrow.

Pass The Test

Friday Sep 06, 2024

Friday Sep 06, 2024

For this week's sermon titled "The Test," the focus is on Abraham's ultimate trial of faith in Genesis 22, where God commands him to sacrifice his son, Isaac. The central challenge is to "Pass the Tests" that God places before us.
Summary:
Years after parting ways with Hagar and Ishmael, Abraham faces one of the greatest tests of his faith: God asks him to sacrifice his beloved son, Isaac. This test is not just about obedience; it’s about revealing the true nature of Abraham's heart and faith. Through this story, we learn that testing comes from God, often to reveal who we truly are and where our faith stands.
God’s test of Abraham required immense sacrifice, mirroring the ultimate sacrifice God would make through Jesus. Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice Isaac demonstrates the depth of his faith and trust in God, even when the command seems impossible. This narrative encourages us to reflect on what we are willing to sacrifice for God and challenges us to trust in God’s provision, even when the path is unclear.
Key Points:
Testing Comes from God: Trials are meant to reveal the true nature of our faith, similar to how God tested Abraham.
Testing Requires Sacrifice: Like Abraham, we might be asked to give up something precious, echoing God’s own sacrifice of His Son.
Testing Reveals Character: How we respond to trials and temptations shows what is truly in our hearts.
Our Faith and Commitment Are Tested: True faith is demonstrated through obedience and trust, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges.
This sermon encourages us to embrace the tests in our lives, seeing them as opportunities to deepen our faith and trust in God’s plan. Just as Abraham’s faith was tested and proven genuine, so too can our trials reveal the strength and depth of our relationship with God.
