Winning the Battle by Speaking the Word of God Part 3

Deuteronomy 6-8

September 1, 2021 • Pastor Bill Gehm

The devil came against Jesus to tempt Him and try to defeat Him. Yet, Jesus, though weakened by hunger, never gave in to the temptations. Instead, he spoke God’s word from Deuteronomy and defeated the devil. Today, Pastor Bill will encourage you to, like Jesus, speak the word to the enemy to defeat him. Jesus knew scripture, but knowing it wasn’t enough. He spoke it. He declared truth, and the devil couldn’t stand under that. By the power of the Holy Spirit, believe and declare God’s truth and Satan can’t defeat you.

Making Sense of The Bible Part 2

April 23, 2024 • Pastor Bill Gehm

You can’t put a price on wisdom. Through wisdom, you can discern The Bible and find the application for each part of your life: wisdom to seek God when you face anything you’re unsure of or need more wisdom for. Today, Pastor Bill’s going to remind you to use wisdom in reading The Bible to see all of the ways it points to Jesus. It points to Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross how He lived and the fulfilled prophecies about Him, and it’s through wisdom you can fully understand and apply it all.

Making Sense of The Bible Part 1

April 22, 2024 • Pastor Bill Gehm

Everything in The Bible backs itself up, and everything points to Jesus, from the Old Testament to the New. When you go through The Bible yourself, remember to keep Jesus in mind. Remember how He lived, what His sacrifice was about, and the compassion He had for others. As Pastor Bill’s going to show you today, it’s the best way to understand what you’re reading. Jesus should be your focus all day long: when you read Scriptures, when you’re at work, school, at home, and anywhere else.

Faithful Friends, Foolish Counselors Part 3

April 19, 2024 • Pastor Bill Gehm

Have you ever tried to counsel a friend going through a tough time, and quoted a bit of Scripture that maybe only seemed slightly relevant? Pastor Bill warns you to be careful in those kinds of situations. If you begin to take Scripture out of context and apply it to situations where it doesn’t belong or make sense, you can do more harm than good, even though you’re using good tools. Instead, use the wisdom that you have gained from Scripture, and ask the Lord to give you the words to say.
