"This is Your Wake-Up Call" -It's impossible to know you're deceived by someone or something until the truth is revealed to you. Likewise, as Christians, we can think things to be a certain way about ourselves and be deceived in our hearts, and not know that we're deceived. Have you ever spoken to someone who believed something that wasn't true, but you couldn't convince them that they were wrong? Deception can cause humans to live in an alternate reality from the truth. This is why God has to give us wake-up calls to bring us into reality. If He doesn't, deception will bring us to humiliation and disgrace, as Christians.
"The Lord is For Us" (Part 2)
November 10, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"The Lord is For Us" -If there is ever a time that Christians will doubt that God is for us, it would be in times of trials and uncertainty. Nevertheless, we need to address the underlying cause as to why Christians would doubt the faithfulness of God. Especially, when God has saved us from our sins. Just because a person states that they have faith in God, it doesn't mean that it is saving faith. There is faith and there is saving faith. In the days that we're living, believers need to understand what saving faith is and how it will give us the confidence we need to overcome this world. In Christ, God has made us to be more than conquerors!

How to Defeat Psychological Warfare (Part 2)
October 27, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"How to Defeat Psychological Warfare" -If there is a place in us, as Christians, where we are most vulnerable to Satan's schemes, it is in our minds. Realizing this as truth will greatly reduce Satan's power against us when he attempts to combat us using psychological warfare. When Satan tried to provoke Jesus to prove that He was the Son of God, Jesus answered with the Word of God. Jesus understood that even though He was being tempted to do something in the natural realm, His battle was with a spirit being. We must answer every negative thought, emotion, and desire with scripture so that we defeat the Devil. All Christians need this word from the Lord.

Jesus Obeyed Anyway (Part 2)
October 13, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"Jesus Obeyed Anyway" -When you are mistreated or you're not shown respect, how do you respond? How we respond to being mistreated or disrespected will show others what is really in our hearts. God sent Jesus to earth to preach the truth to the Jews, His chosen people. When Jesus declared the Good News to them, the Jews rejected Him and His teachings. As Jesus' fame grew, the Jewish leaders tried to discourage the Jews from listening to Jesus because of His influence on the people. The leaders even resorted to threats and violence against Jesus to intimidate Him. Jesus refused to allow His enemies, rejection, or even hatred to stop Him from obeying the Father. If you truly want to know what spiritual liberty and power are, this is the message for you.

Blessed to Know the Truth (Part 2)
September 29, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"Blessed to Know the Truth" (Part 2) -We cannot be friends with the world and be friends to the truth. If it wasn't for truth, no one would know what sin is even though we are all born in sin. In fact, truth is the only thing that can save us from sin. When Jesus came to the Jews, He presented the truth to them. Unfortunately, they rejected the truth that He spoke and this kept them from receiving salvation. Before we can be empowered to receive Jesus into our lives, we first have to receive the truth. The truth of God saves us from sin and hell, but it also saves us from the wrath of God while we live on the earth.

Hope for the Broken (Part 2)
September 15, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"Hope for the Broken" -In John 10, Jesus teaches that the thief does not come but to steal, to kill, and to destroy. Jesus goes on to state that He had come that we might have eternal life and life in abundance. If you are feeling abandoned and broken spiritually, God has a word for you. It is Satan who breaks us, but it is God who seeks to humble us. Whenever we feel broken, God invites us to humble ourselves and seek Him that He might restore our souls.

Faith Makes Us Overcomers (Part 2)
September 1, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"Faith Makes Us Overcomers" -If you are born again, according to 1 John 5, you have already overcome the world. If you have a trying situation where someone comes against you, you must respond to that person in the Spirit by faith in Christ. If not, you will forfeit your victory over the world because you have chosen to respond in your strength instead of God's strength. Our faith should be very precious and value to us as Christians. Otherwise, if our faith isn't valuable to us, we might fall prey to Satan's devices and forfeit our spiritual authority and victory over him.

"Encouragement for Your Soul" (Part 2)
August 18, 2024 • Pastor Asa Dockery
"Encouragement for Your Soul" -The Devil seeks opportunities to play tricks on our minds as Christians. He will work through thoughts, feelings, and bad news to try to convince us that we are defeated as Christians. If you hear a negative report or a lie from Satan, you will be discouraged. Nothing good comes from Satan. Therefore, Christians have to be able to recognize when Satan is speaking to them or if the world has their attention. Otherwise, we can fall prey to discouragement and even depression if we believe the reports of the enemy. Every Christian that is struggling needs to hear this message and take it to heart.
