Songs hold immense power. They define how we feel and represent different seasons in life, from our first high school romance to the first major breakup. Songs define and shape our journey, reminding us of our past and future. In this message, Pastor Lance concludes our Summer In The Psalms series by looking at the Song of Ascents. These songs were sung by ancient people during their journey to worship God, defining both their journey and ours. We are all on a spiritual journey to God, and the Song of Ascents teaches us some valuable lessons that we can apply to our spiritual life.
Fear. Anxiety. Panic. Stress. Those are just a few emotions that the smallest things can trigger. And those emotions interfere with daily life and are often disproportionate to actual situations. If not dealt with, those feelings will take away your trust in God. In this message, Pastor Lance will teach you how to battle any feelings that try and take control of your life. Although you cannot control when your emotions are triggered, you can control what you do once they are. God has something important for you in this message.
Imagine if there was a way to experience God's presence more than you do now. What if there was a way to strengthen your prayer life? What if you could change something in your life that would help dial down the anxiety and pull you out of the darkness of depression? What if instead of focusing on what you don't have, you celebrated what you do have? That mindset could change your situation without actually changing your situation. The good news is, you don't have to imagine this kind of change. In this message from Psalm 107, Pastor Lance shows how to achieve it.
