In the message of “It Is Written Part 3” Pastor Jason completes a look at Jesus’ time being tempted in the wilderness. The wilderness is a place of testing, the wilderness is what the Israelites had to go through to get them out of Egypt. God said He wanted to get Israel out of Egypt to be free to worship Him. The problem though was Israel left Egypt, but Egypt was still in them.

They had the freedom to do what God wanted them to do, but were still thinking and acting like they were slaves. The wilderness is not just a transition, it’s a transformation. Jesus showed how we should respond to the wilderness, and how we should leave it. The wilderness is a place to prepare us to enter into our promise in Christ Jesus to worship Him in liberty.

The Devil’s Disguised Plan

May 5, 2024 • Bishop Spencer McCool

In this message Bishop, as the watchman on the wall in scripture, comes to warn us about “The Devil’s Disguised Plan.” The enemy knows what won’t trip us up, and what will. The weapon of discouragement has been attempted against every child of God at one point or another. The causes of discouragement include fatigue, frustration, doubt, and fear. Each one can cause us to go through the valley of discouragement, but we must go through it, and not build a house there! The devil is a bully, we can get angry at him, take a stand in Jesus’ name, and send him packing.

Authentic Conversations: It Is Written Part 2 (The Red Letter Series)

April 24, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter, Bro. Lance Gr

This week Pastor Jason is joined by Bro. Lance Gray for an Authentic Conversation about Sunday’s message “It Is Written Part 2”. They look at the what Jesus was teaching us while the enemy was trying to tempt Him. God allows us to be tested to reveal what’s in us to bless us, while the enemy tempts us to expose what should not be there. Though He was God, as a man, Jesus showed us we can make the right choice. Jesus heard the lie of the enemy, held His ground, then tackled the lie by not only quoting content, but content within context. He pointed back to Israel in the wilderness. Jesus was saying we can either be an Israelite who doubts and falls in the wilderness, or we can be a Caleb. We can stand on The Word, trust in God, pursue what we should really hunger for, and allow Him to complete in us what He desires to give us.

The Red Letter Series: It Is Written Part 2

April 21, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter

In “It Is Written Part 2” of the Red Letter Series, Pastor Jason continues our look at Jesus in the wilderness. The enemy attempted with Jesus what he tries with us. To insert doubt so we will give into our lusts and to sin, that’s Genesis 3, the same lie as at the beginning. Jesus heard the lie, held His ground, and gave a lesson to all of us. Jesus’ response took us back to Deuteronomy 6. It was there He was trying to show Israel He allowed them to be hungry so they could hunger after what God would give them. The manna pointed ahead to Christ, The Word Of God. Only what The Lord gives us can satisfy, His Word will cause us to never hunger and thirst again.
