Isaiah 51: Deliverance for Zion Part 2
April 13, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
God is faithful. Isn’t it amazing to see His hand in our lives? He is God Almighty, and willing and able to take care of us. Pastor Terry urges us today, to trust that the Lord can look after all our needs. His shoulders are big and strong enough to bear the weight of our burdens. Nothing is too massive for His might, and nothing too insignificant for Him to notice. God has a deep regard for us as His creation. He is a good Father who watches over His children. When we cry out to Him for help, He loves to rescue us.
Isaiah 51: Deliverance for Zion Part 1
April 6, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
If we concentrate on the things of this world and the chaos that surrounds us, we can become anxious and without hope. Today, Pastor Terry encourages us with the good news of Jesus and His everlasting kingdom. He is the same yesterday, and today, and forever. We can put our confidence in Him. The Word of the Lord stands forever, and His promises never fail. Our future is bright if we belong to Christ. Hold on to the Rock through life’s uncertainties, and look forward to the promises that await us.
Isaiah 49-50: The Redeemer of Israel Part 2
March 30, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
So often, it can feel like the Lord doesn’t listen and doesn’t hear you in your need. But, as pastor Terry teaches today, God hears all, knows every word spoken to Him, and then speaks to His children. When you pray to the Lord, then truly tune your heart to Him, and wait quietly, He will speak to you. If you’re a believer, you can hear your Savior’s voice. He is with you and will speak to you. You must earnestly seek Him and listen for His voice. It will help you through your most difficult moments.
Isaiah 49-50: The Redeemer of Israel Part 1
March 23, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
There’ll be times in your walk of faith with the Lord that you may feel like you’re failing as a believer. You may be wrestling with sin in your life, and feel like God will just give up on you. Well, today, Pastor Terry will encourage you to remember that God loves you deeply and will never forsake those who are His. Even when He corrects and convicts you, or brings consequences for your sin, He still loves you and won’t abandon you. So, turn boldly and wholeheartedly back to God! He’ll welcome you home like a good Father.
Isaiah 46: Prophecy to Babylon Part 2
March 16, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
National pride and honoring your country are not necessarily bad things. But when you begin to trust your nation above all else and rest in the strength you perceive in it, you’re opening yourself up to devastation. Babylon was a strong and powerful nation. It seemed invincible. Yet, since it rested on its own strength, rejected God, and became prideful, it eventually was destroyed. Today, Pastor Terry will explain how important it is to never forget God and as a nation trust in Him. No nation can outlast Almighty God!
Isaiah 46: Prophecy to Babylon Part 1
March 9, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Nations like Babylon were powerful, strong, scary, and seemingly invincible. They had numerous gods and worthless things they worshiped. Yet, when they were in need, no god responded. No one came to help in their need. Today, Pastor Terry will describe the tendency mankind has to create, trust, and worship false gods that they look to instead of the One God Almighty. Don’t allow yourself to give your heart or allegiance to anything but God. Everything else is empty and worthless.
Isaiah 45 Part 2
March 2, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Have you heard about what is waiting for you after your life ends here on Earth? Today Pastor Terry says that for those who believe in God their future is bright, and it will be exciting! There are many references in the Bible to what Heaven will be like, and the new earth that will be created once God defeats evil once and for all. The truth is that no one really knows what to expect, but for those who accept Christ, and live a life in pursuit of His likeness, there is a place for them for eternity in a place like no other!
Isaiah 45 Part 1
February 24, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Today Pastor Terry is going to add a word to your vocabulary. The word isn’t important by itself, but the meaning behind it is more valuable than anything you will find on Earth. Do you remember your first day of school, or at a new job? Do you remember the nerves that came with you as you were preparing to start something new? They eventually go away because someone helps you get through it. In Life, only God can prepare you for your purpose and arm you with the tools and talents that you’ll need!
Isaiah 41-42 Part 3
February 17, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
The Bible is full of warnings about what will happen in the end to those who do not find faith in God! It seems like there is a reference in almost every book with this reminder. Today Pastor Terry shares yet one more example of the fall that awaits those who worship their own gods. This warning is repeated so much that it should be obvious to you how important it is to God that you are not lost to the temptations of the world. What false gods do you have in your life today that you need to turn away from?
Isaiah 41-42 Part 2
February 10, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Today Pastor Terry reminds you of something extremely important about prayer. Not only is it necessary to pray over one another, and to pray for God’s hand to be on you, but as a Christian, you are receiving unceasing prayer from Jesus to God on your behalf! If that doesn’t put life into perspective for you, then nothing will! Jesus constantly prays over your successes and failures and receives your prayers of forgiveness always. There is no better mentor than Jesus for a healthy prayer life!
Isaiah 41-42 Part 1
February 3, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Today Pastor Terry brings one of the shortest but most powerful words of encouragement that you can ever hear! He reads from a favorite Bible verse and reminds you of the promise that once you have accepted God as your savior He is always with you! That promise comes with a lifetime guarantee and a free gift - that with God on your side there is nothing that could ever stand against you! The next time you’re facing something that feels too big to do alone, remember that God stands with you through it all!
Isaiah 43-44 Part 3
January 27, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Do you have distractions in your life that are getting in the way of prayer? For many, it can be a struggle to keep prayer as a priority. It may come and go with the seasons of life, but today pastor Terry says there is nothing more important than prayer! He reflects back to how he came to know Christ, and credits prayer on his behalf for that reality. He says that without those prayers over him, he would never have come to find faith in the one true God! Who do you know that is lost and needs your prayers today?
Isaiah 43-44 Part 2
January 20, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
If you’ve ever thought to yourself that you needed redemption for your actions or sins of the past, and you could earn your way back to God, then listen to what Pastor Terry has to say today! Every time you try to earn God’s forgiveness, you are undermining the gift of salvation that God gave you when He sacrificed His only son. Forgiveness can not be earned - it can only be given! If you haven’t already, then let go of your past sins and accept God’s uncompromising forgiveness today!
Isaiah 43-44 Part 1
January 13, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Do you know how God feels about you? How He sees you when He looks at you? No matter what you see when you look in the mirror, or what you think about yourself for the mistakes in your past, today Pastor Terry reminds you that you are precious in His sight! You may think that you have gone too far, or made too big many mistakes to still be one of God’s precious children, but that’s the wonderful thing about God’s love - He knows you better than you know yourself and He loves you anyway!
Isaiah 38 Part 3
January 6, 2024 • Pastor Terry Reynolds
Uh oh! Pastor Terry shares some personal testimony today that he might have to pay for later. He does make a good point though! You see, when you follow your path and the influence of the world around you then you will always be left empty and filled with regret. But God’s path is different, and never on the timeline that you’d expect. Many times your patience will wear thin, but the blessings of God await you around each and every corner as you pursue His will for your life and become a modern disciple of God.
