This is an excerpt from: Deeper Than You Think Is Jesus thinking a little bit more deeply about your situation than you are thinking about your situation in this moment, and does he see it like you see it? With my kids, I have to be okay with the [...]

This is an excerpt from: Delayed Praise You can be free, but not by this Friday. You can be healed from a broken heart, but not in the next hour, not by the time I say, "Amen". So, if the Devil can't trick you into thinking it's never [...]

Let's welcome our eFam all around the world. Welcome, wherever you're joining us from today. We welcome you. Put it in the comments where you're joining us from. I want to pick up and tag-team with Holly, right with what my wife shared last week. [...]

This is an excerpt from: My Future Is My Focus Everything God wants to do next in your life is connected to what he is calling you to do now. It took Joseph's attitude in the prison to interpret someone else's dreams while he himself was still in a [...]

Do the new you. Get a clear picture of what God has created you to be by spending time in his presence, communing with him, putting his Word in your heart, getting the imprint of his image clearly in your mind, worshiping him, seeing him for who he [...]

This is an excerpt from: Ugly Trust I have to show you what it looks like to really trust God. "David took these words to heart and was very much afraid of Achish…" Achish is not a name; Achish is a title. It's like pharaoh, or something [...]

This is an excerpt from: The Hard Work Of Happiness But I think, according to Psalm 126, there are some decisions you can make in the dry places of your life that will lead you, no matter where you're starting from, into a place of supernatural [...]

This is an excerpt from: Instruments of Victory So, you get in your head, and things die there, because you give the instrument of your mind to the Enemy. The Lord says, "If you are afraid…" Wait a minute. He just sent all of the men away [...]

Would you high-five three people and tell them, "You don't even know. You can't even imagine how good God has been to me". Wow. Stay standing. I'm not going to be very long before I get to the Word, because I want to give you part 2 of [...]

This is an excerpt from: Bent Knees Break Chains The position I'm in determines the decisions I make. Sometimes I did something because I'm depressed. The depression may not be my fault. I believe there's a genetic element to depression. But in the [...]

Don't you let the enemy tell you any different - You have a future. God knows the plans He has for you, plans to give you a hope and a future. There's laughter in your future. There's connection in your future. There's friendship in your future. [...]

I want to do something kind of interesting today. I want to preach off of that song we were just singing. I want to preach on "Trust in God". Would it be all right if I expound a little bit on what we were just singing? I'm going to show [...]

This is an excerpt from: Found Fishing God has had you in a season where you haven't known what's next. God has had you in a season where perhaps you even thought it was over. Maybe even other people said it was over. Maybe you think there's no way [...]

Sometimes God uses the wrong things from our perspective to accomplish His purpose in our life. Sometimes God uses something that we would never see coming, or someone that we would never see coming, to help us or to instruct us or to challenge us [...]

This is an excerpt from: Make Peace With Your Strength What if this is a turning word for you today? God is saying the answer is not for you to shrink yourself; it is to depend on him and step into it. Now, I see you shrinking, and you have your [...]

There are times where I find myself stressed, anxious, out of control, upset, and I can't quite put my finger on why. There are times where I find myself, even though that I believe in God, I don't really feel like I'm able to trust him like I want [...]

Isn't that a good thing to know that here, today, we are in the rhythm of the Spirit of God? You can feel it. If you have an ear, you can hear it. God is doing miracle after miracle, open door after open door. It is an amazing time to be alive. [...]

This is an excerpt from: That's Not All You Are This is what we do. We love to label stuff, because if I label it, I can be lazy. I can think I know you because you remind me of something that's in myself that I won't admit. This Easter, I would [...]

You might want to open your Bible to John, chapter 21. If you didn't bring a Bible, that's okay. I brought the biggest Bible I have ever owned. I found this at a flea market the other day. It said "Large Print Bible". I did just turn 43. [...]

This is an excerpt from Life After The Let Down That's why I wanted to talk to you about life after the letdown. When I say the letdown, I am leaving it open-ended so you can supply your own event, experience, or condition where I say the term [...]

Now, as promised, I am going to pick up right where I left off last week. We have to get Gideon out of this winepress. We have to get you out of your winepress too. You've been whining about things, been depressed about things. Last week I preached [...]

This is an excerpt from: Enough Until It Comes Everything you depend on that does not come from God will eventually dry up. I'll take it further. Everything that is not God, even if it's good, will eventually dry up. Even people who like you will [...]

Let's go. I want to tell you right now that God is able to do immeasurably more than you ask, think or imagine, according to his power. Somebody shout, "His power". That's what I want to preach about today, I want to preach about his [...]

This is an excerpt from: God's Up To Something Upstream The amount of faith you have in your steps relates to the amount of faith you have in his sovereignty. When I tell God all of the reasons he can't use me, I get this sense that he already knew [...]

This is an excerpt from: Focus Your Faith Did you notice how he said in verse 9, "Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged"? I love that sermon I did a few weeks ago where I had Graham come up here and put his forearm on my neck. I was [...]

This is an excerpt from: The Facts Aren't Final Some of the stuff you're fighting with in your faith right now… It's not a lie, and that's what makes it so scary. It's a fact. It is a fact. I talked to three people in this church last night…one [...]

Hasn't he been wonderful and kind and merciful? Haven't his blessings been bountiful in your life, exceedingly, abundantly above anything you could ask or imagine? The presence of the Lord is in this place. Would you just tell the person next to [...]

This is an excerpt from: Forward Not Finished Isn't that a horrible thing that you can see something God wants to give you, but you can't bring it into reality? I'd rather not even know God promised it to me than to hear people talk about it and to [...]

Why don't you just take 23 seconds, since it's the year 2023, and praise God for the opportunity to be in his presence today. You can do it online. By the way, we're probably coming to a city near you this spring. Elevation Nights 2023, April 18-27. [...]

This is an excerpt from: Blown Away! Life will layer you with dirt. Life will layer you, like Naomi, with bitterness, with experiences that all of a sudden become the focus. The Bible does not say the treasure was sitting in the field waiting to be [...]

This is an excerpt from: Copy That The challenge for a lot of people I'm preaching to is that sometimes you have to be something you've never seen before. When I read my Scripture, "Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to [...]

This is an excerpt from: Pivotal Decisions Now sometimes when you pray to God he's going to pivot. You're going to be like, "I need the plan," but God will pivot. This angel would have made a great politician or preacher or basketball [...]

This is an excerpt from: Don't Fight Your Future That's the reason God gives you a word. That's the reason God gives you an experience. That's the reason he leads you through the valley: so you can get to know the Shepherd, so that when you face [...]

The Lord told me to preach this today, "there's so much more to the story", that's my sermon. There's so much more to the story - that's it. There's so much more to the story. Get this in your spirit, I'm gonna be preaching it through each [...]

This is an excerpt from: The Prison of Offense The Enemy's agenda is destruction, his strategy is division, and his tactic is offense. Thankfully, God has given us another way to deal with offense. If only we could find an example of somebody who [...]
