The place of a mother's in our lives, history and Christianity have been so powerful. Everyone has a soft, tender spot for mother. In this message we explore our example of motherhood we all can appreciate and respect. But we also reach out with hope and love for all who have not had or feel short of where they should be.

Jesus asked, what would we give in exchange for our soul? Each of us have to answer this question. Not only does Jesus ask the question, He gives us the only answer that will bring peace and assurance. Our sin for His sacrifice. The great exchange has been made, or has it?

Somehow we, the church, have expected and tried to get the world to honor and bring glory to our God. Folks, it jut is not going to happen! The glory Christ is to receive must come from through His church. However for that to happen we must activate the power! This message will move us!

The devil was uses religion, government and people of this evil world to make Jesus seem to be dead. Scripture says, all things are possible with God and to those who believe. The second we activate the resurrection of Jesus with faith, He will come alive in us!

There is no doubt we need to pray, and pray more! There is also no doubt most of us are lacking in this most important task and great privilege. This message is to stir our desire and need to pray and pray effectively. I pray we are moved into the closet!

Being a Christian should be far more exciting and rewarding to us than going to the temple was for Israel. Yet, they said we were glad when it was time to go there. How glad we are to be and do as a Christian? Does church excite us? Are we glad when we hear?

Before God made anything, He had a plan. Because of sin, His original plan was thwarted. But God, in His great wisdom, had another plan. His redemptive plan involves the work of the Godhead, each in unison,each in it's own power. The plan is working through the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Pressing On- Pressing In All true Christians desire the will of God in their lives. That revelation and performance doesn't come by accident or on its own. We must be pursuing, pressing on toward the mark. That is where the prize is. By pressing on we can press in to the King's promises of being like Him.

All of us experience times of spiritual dryness. But when hard times come, sometimes it seems we have nothing to draw upon or use to get out of the hard place. Yet inside every believer is the very life source to not only get us out but become an overflowing source of life to others. It just needs stirring up and pouring out!

Abounding Hope Scripture tells us those without Christ in the world are without hope. Hope has power. Hope is eternal. Hope is not wishing. Hope is knowing. Hope keeps faith alive. Faith believes for things, hope looks and watches until it comes. Our lives are to abound in hope. Eager expectations of all Gods promises becoming reality now!
