Preparing A Dwelling Place

The Driving Gear

March 13, 2022 • Chad Everett - Lead Pastor • John 1:1–3, Proverbs 4:20–22, Exodus 29:42–46, John 10:9–10, John 3:3–6

It's time to reengage! Whatever you're needing today, go through the word of God and engage it.

God has plans and purpose for our lives spoken in the Word and it is the will of God. It is the driving gear. It moves everything in our lives. All of what God has for our lives, does not impact your life, until you get close and engage and connect with Him by faith, and that's when our lives move in the same direction as His will and Word. We must not disengage with His Word. We must not reject God's method, because it doesn't meet our approval. The enemy will keep talking, trying to get us to disengage. Don't! Fulfill the Word of God for your Life!

Preparing A Dwelling Place Pt 19

April 10, 2022 • Chad Everett - Lead Pastor • Hebrews 6:13–15, Hebrews 10:19–39, Ephesians 2:19–22, Hebrews 6:9–12

We don't like the word patience. Most of us don't like to wait for anything. In our culture, we can barely wait for 14 minutes let alone 14 hours for something. But God says to imitate those that inherited the promises through faith and patience. God is faithful - so hold fast, endure, stick with it, without wavering, even when we go through some suffering - patiently endure, and our possessions in heaven can't be taken away from us. We must increase our capacity to hold up under difficult circumstances and endure.

Preparing A Dwelling Place Pt 18

April 3, 2022 • Chad Everett - Lead Pastor • Philippians 3:7–8, 2 Corinthians 6:14–18, Ephesians 5:8–11, Ephesians 4:20–24, Matthew 12:43–45

True biblical consecration is about being dedicated unto something better or more valuable, which results in being set apart from something less valuable. Once we rank value in our life, our time, energy and resources start to be distributed along the lines of what we value. Consecrating is evacuating things in our life that comes out of embracing a relationship with Jesus, because when we are in a relationship with Jesus, there are things that we no longer need. Church, even if we are hated for it, we cannot be afraid of being consecrated unto Him, leaving the values of the world behind. When we choose Him, we will walk away from the world's values, we will put on the new man, as we work out the faith and non-faith in our own lives, and live according to scripture - not culture, out of our relationship with Jesus.

Preparing A Dwelling Place Part 17

March 27, 2022 • Chad Everett - Lead Pastor • Acts 1:4–5, Acts 19:1–7, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 2 Chronicles 5:11–14, 2 Chronicles 7:1–3

Being filled with God's glory went from fire coming down from heaven and filling a room in the Old Testament, to fire coming down from heaven and filling individuals in the New Testament. The glory of God in us, is for today, giving us power and authority over all demons, to cure diseases, to preach the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick. God wants to fill some individual containers, and as He fills each one, we won't stay the same, because things that used to be able to get in, can no longer get in, and impurities that were already in, can't stay - there's no room. His presence starts pushing out what isn't allowed anymore. We just keep pouring out, and He'll keep filling us up.
