Galatians 5: Experience Heaven

October 9, 2024 • Pastor Mark Machen • Galatians 5, John 3:1–6, Revelation 22:1–2, John 7:38–39

Continuing our verse-by-verse study through Galatians, Pastor Mark discusses what it truly means to live in the Spirit rather than the flesh. When Jesus preached about the Kingdom of God, it was a discovery into how to experience the fullness of heaven’s resources in your daily life. Jesus didn’t just come to secure our place in heaven; He came so we could experience the kingdom of heaven and its blessings right here on earth.

When you imagine heaven; the streets of gold, perfect peace, unshakable joy, healing, and divine provision, that’s all part of the spiritual realm that believers have access to—right now—through the Holy Spirit.

Natural efforts, no matter how hard we try, can never produce spiritual results. Jesus teaches us that it’s not through our self-effort or religious works that we receive from God, but through faith and living in the Spirit. The rivers of life and provision from heaven flow to us through the Holy Spirit, empowering us to live a life filled with peace, joy, love, and supernatural blessings. By embracing the love of God and realizing how much He has freely given to us, we can unlock the fullness of His kingdom.

If you’re still trying to earn God’s approval through works, this message is for you. Jesus came so that you could stop striving and start receiving from the Father’s abundant love and grace. It’s not about keeping laws or traditions, but about living as a child of God and allowing the Spirit to lead you into all the blessings of the kingdom. Faith that works through love is the key to unlocking heaven’s resources in your life, and it starts with understanding just how much you are loved by your Heavenly Father.

Learn how to shift from a servant mentality to a sonship mindset, living in the Spirit and accessing all the resources that come from heaven. Whether it’s healing, freedom, or supernatural provision, it all flows from the Spirit and the love of God. By walking in the Spirit, serving others, and allowing the Spirit to guide you, you can experience the fullness of life that God intended for you.

Gifts & Calling: Prayer & Intercession

November 6, 2024 • Pastor Mark Machen • Philippians 2:14–15, Psalm 2, 1 Timothy 2:1–4, Jeremiah 29:7

In a unifying and heart felt message, we hear about the power of prayer, intercession, and love for those around us—even those we disagree with. Discover what it means to live from a place of gratitude, where we thank God for everyone in our lives and intercede for those who may be going astray. As followers of Christ, our calling isn’t to judge or criticize but to lift others up. Imagine a church that prays instead of complains, where we support rather than tear down. This is the heart of early Christianity. Despite living under rulers who opposed their faith, the early believers were called to pray for those in authority, trusting that God could work even through those who seemed far from Him. Join us as we learn how to activate this calling in our own lives—by shifting our hearts and aligning our words to build unity. Let’s elevate our relationships, commit to speaking life, and set an example of love that transforms lives and honors God.

Gifts and Calling: An Introduction

October 30, 2024 • Pastor Mark Machen • 1 Corinthians 12:1–28, Ephesians 4:15–16, Acts 1:6–8, Acts 2:1–39, 1 Corinthians 13:8–10

Unlock the power of hearing God’s voice for yourself and discover your unique place in His Kingdom. Many believers wrestle with identifying their gifts or calling, but through exploring the diversity of spiritual gifts, graces, and offices within the body of Christ, we can each find our true fit. Scripture shows that we’re united with God, not through religion or rules, but through a relationship where we hear His voice and walk with Him. Jesus said His sheep know His voice—not that they need special skills to hear it, but that they recognize it. In Christ, we are united with fellow believers, promoting one another’s success because we’re all members of one body. This unity prevents anyone from falling through the cracks and fosters a deep connection among us. The gifts and grace God has given you are meant to uplift others, not just yourself. The Holy Spirit’s role in our lives is essential—He was sent to reveal Christ, and His presence in our lives is more than a temporary need. Through prophecy and spiritual gifts, the Holy Spirit provides guidance for the specific situations we face, beyond what’s written in Scripture. Just as Paul received a prophetic warning, the Spirit offers insights that shape our lives. As members of one another, we’re called to contribute when we gather, bringing encouragement, wisdom, and strength to the body of Christ. Embrace the mindset that we’re all knit together for a purpose, and through the gifts of the Spirit, we can walk in the fullness of our calling.
