FINISH In The Spirit And Power Of Pentecost October 20, 2019 By Bishop Raymond Burch See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. 1 John 3:1-2 But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is. And all who have this eager expectation will keep themselves pure, just as he is pure. 1 John 3:3 EXPECTATIONS: a strong belief that something will happen or be the case in the future. PURE: G53 – hagnos – exciting reverence, venerable, sacred, pure – pure from carnality, chaste, modest – pure from every fault, immaculate, pure clean John answered their questions by saying, “I baptize you with water; but someone is coming soon who is greater than I am—so much greater that I’m not even worthy to be his slave and untie the straps of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Luke 3:16 I baptize you with water for repentance, but after me will come One more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Matthew 3:11 His winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” Matthew 3:12 “For our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:29 KJV “And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of...

SEVEN STEPS OF FAITH Oct 6, 2019 Hebrews 11:1 (NIV) 11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Faith is Action • Faith cannot be perfected, If there is a way out. • If there is no way out, that’s when faith is perfected. 1. DESIRE God says…. What do you want? Psalm 37:4 “Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desire. 2. DECISION A sound mind or a made-up mind. 2. Corinthians 13:5 “Examine yourself to see if your faith is really genuine. Test yourself, if you cannot tell that JESUS is in you it means you have failed the test.” 2 Corinthians 13:5 (GNT) 5 Put yourselves to the test and judge yourselves, to find out whether you are living in faith. Surely you know that Christ Jesus is in you? — unless you have completely failed. 3. ASK John said…. 1. John 5:14-15 14“And we can be confident that HE will listen to us whenever we ask him for anything in line with his will.15 And if we know he is listening when we make our request, we can be sure that HE will give us what we ask for.” The post SEVEN STEPS OF FAITH – Pt1 – Oct 6, 2019 appeared first on EVANGEL WORLD OUTREACH CENTER Morris County Church.

Because of Christ, it is possible. Yes! – You Can Do It Phil. 4: 13“I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me”. I. For with God: “All things are possible”Matt 19:26 NIV“With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Two reasons why: 1. Because God is “All powerful” 2. Because God is “All knowing”Second, Paul always believe that… II. For him who Believes: “Everything is possible” Mark 9:23“‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for him who believes.” A. Faith is the key B. Have Faith in God– The book of Hebrew says, “without faith it is impossible to please the Lord…” III. For those who Persevere: “ A. I can do all things…”Phil 4:13Acknowledgement that we need Jesus to do all things Without Him and apart from Him we practically can do nothing… NEVER GIVE UP!!!

3. The Priceless Value Of Knowing Christ Phil 3:7-11 Philippians 3:7-11 (NLT) 7 I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done. 8 Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ. 9 and become one with him. I no longer count on my own righteousness through obeying the law; rather, I become righteous through faith in Christ. For God’s way of making us right with himself depends on faith. 10 I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death, 11 so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead! 4. Pressing Toward The Goal Phil 3:12-14 Philippians 3:12-14 (NLT) 12 I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. 13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. 1. Forget the ground you have covered in the past – you can not waste time on the past. 2.

The Attitude YOU Must Have To Make It to Glory – 8/4/2019 – PT 2

The Attitude YOU Must Have To Make It to Glory EWOC – 7.28.2019 Part 1 1. Have The Attitude Of Christ Phil 2:1-8 Philippians 2:1-8 (NLT) 2 Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? 2 Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. (what is Your purpose?) 3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. 5 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. 6 Though he was God, he did not think of equality with Godas something to cling to.7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slaveand was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form,8     he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross. 2. Live To Please God Phil 2:12-18 Philippians 2:12-18 (NLT) 12 Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear.13 For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. 14 Do everything without complaining and arguing, 15 so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. 16 Hold firmly to the word of life; then, on the day of Christ’s return, I will be proud that I did not run the race in vain and that my work...

A Call to Generous Giving 2 Corinthians 8:1-5 (NLT) Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in his kindness has done through the churches in Macedonia. 2They are being tested by many troubles, and they are very poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity. 3For I can testify that they gave not only what they could afford, but far more. And they did it of their own free will. 4They begged us again and again for the privilege of sharing in the gift for the believers in Jerusalem.  5They even did more than we had hoped, for their first action was to give themselves to the Lord and to us, just as God wanted them to do. THE LIFESTYLE AND RESULT IT WILL PRODUCE 2 Corinthians 9:10-11 (NLT) 10 For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you. 11 Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God.

HOW TO GET ANSWERS TO EVERY PRAYER Ewoc sermon – 7.7.2019 1. Why are some prayers answered and others not? When Jesus prayed for something or someone do you think He asked himself will this request be answered or not. John declares that an effective prayer life is related to our devotion to God. 1 John 3:18-24 Living Bible (TLB) 18 Little children let us stop just saying we love people; let us really love them, and show it by our actions. 19 Then we will know for sure, by our actions, that we are on God’s side, and our consciences will be clear, even when we stand before the Lord. 20 But if we have bad consciences and feel that we have done wrong, the Lord will surely feel it even more, for he knows everything we do. 21 But, dearly loved friends, if our consciences are clear, we can come to the Lord with perfect assurance and trust, 22 and get whatever we ask for because we are obeying him and doing the things that please him. 23 And this is what God says we must do: Believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another. 24 Those who do what God says—they are living with God and he with them. We know this is true because the Holy Spirit he has given us tells us so. 1 John 5:14-15 Living Bible (TLB) 14 And we are sure of this, that he will listen to us whenever we ask him for anything in line with his will.15 And if we really know he is listening when we talk to him and make our requests, then we can be sure that he will answer us. What difference will the answers to your prayer request make for the kingdom of God. How does it impact the kingdom of God? How does the answer to your request impacts the...

He is the absolute best father that there could ever be. He truly is a father that we can trust. I. He Is A Rewarder  – Heb. 11:6 “… he rewards those who sincerely seek him.” Hebrews 11:6(NLT) And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him. HE is the Perfect Judge 2 Timothy 4:8(NLT) And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing. 2. HE is always right and never wrong A. Perfect Gifts B. He disciplines His Children because He Loves Them C. Perfect Compensation II. He Is Trustworthy Proverbs 29:25(NLT) Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety. Good News Translation (GNT) says: Proverbs 29:25 (GNT) 25 It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you, but if you trust the Lord, you are safe. A. HE Never lets you down! B. HE Never forgets what you need! C. HE Always meets ALL your needs – Spiritual / Physical / Emotional Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT) Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take III. He Always Tells Us How We Can Please Him 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NLT) All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and...
