Life is full of moments when we ask, “Why did this have to happen and why did it have to happen now?” It’s easy to forget that God loves us in these difficult moments. It’s vital when we pray to remember the truth of God’s love. Prayer helps us to put on and apply the Armour of God as we’re invited to come before the throne of grace. In prayer, we occupy the space God says we belong…in His presence and love. Prayer doesn’t guarantee that our circumstance changes, but praying in the Spirit (in line with God’s Word) changes us so we can have God’s peace and strength to stand.

The Battle
February 24, 2019 • Pastor Larry Hasmatali
Surrounding us is a spiritual war (angels vs. demons, good vs. evil, light vs. darkness). But amazingly, most believers live as if this conflict were not even happening, as if the “battle of the ages” (Eph 6:12) was just a fantasy or sci-fi story. Yet not one of us is immune to the consequences of spiritual warfare. Although this battle is fought mostly in the invisible realm, its effects are certainly visual in the physical realm. In this message, you will learn the ABC’s of the battle.
The Belt of Truth
March 3, 2019 • Pastor Larry Hasmatali
The Belt of Truth is the first piece of armor listed in Ephesians 6:10-14. It begins with the admonition from the Apostle Paul to “be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his mighty power.” This is the key to understanding the armor of God. All the pieces of the armor belong to God and come from Him. Also, all are gifts to God’s people. All are designed to help us “stand against the schemes of the devil.” The Belt of Truth is the first listed because, without truth, we are lost and the schemes of the devil will surely overpower us.
