We won’t be able to fully pursue God until we acknowledge the places we’re afraid. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson helps us recognize fear and how it can immobilize us and prevent us from growing in our faith. We need God’s help to overcome our fears. Pastor Allen offers scripture to help us recognize that fear is a normal reaction. Afterall, it’s common for God to ask His people to venture into places that feel uncertain, because then we are reliant on Him for the outcomes—not ourselves. Surrendering our fears to God and choosing to trust Him is something we must do on a regular basis. Jesus was dependent upon the Father to complete His assignment—and so are we!

Do Not be Deceived
We are walking through a time of dramatic deception, and we need to know how to recognize it because we are all vulnerable. Pastor Allen Jackson names three key coordinates we can use to discern whether something is true or false: If it aligns with Jesus, the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit, it’s truth! He talks about the fallacies of liberation theology, new age philosophies, false prophecy, the use of occult practices like seances and ouiji boards to predict the future, and other destructive movements that are prevalent in today’s culture. God’s Truth is the anecdote to deception, and with Jesus, we can not only be delivered from it, but be redeemed!
