Summary: The Book of Ephesians is about all the spiritual riches available to the believer. Ephesians 1:3 the theme of the whole book says, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: For the first fourteen verses the Apostle Paul talks about how we are "born spiritually rich" when we trusted Christ.  But he says that being born spiritually r...

Summary: God Seals Us when we believe. Why does this passage of scripture matter to you today?  Well quite simply, if a person continually struggles with what is their purpose and worth in life, and if they continually struggle with their eternal security, they will never be able to move on and live in the victorious Christian life that God purposes for them, and promises for them to have for the taking.  And notice, I say for the ...

Summary: Life has a way of leaving us in pieces. Relationships fracture. Dreams shatter. Sin separates. From the moment humanity fell in the Garden of Eden, the story of our existence has been one of things falling apart—man separated from God, brother against brother, nation against nation. Yet woven throughout Scripture is a counter-narrative, a divine promise that what has been broken will be made whole again.

This is the hea...

Summary: This week's sermon from Ephesians 1:3-4 explores the incredible truth that we have been chosen by God and blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. We discover that our identity as saints is not something we earn through our efforts, but rather a position we occupy because of God's perfect love. The sermon challenges us to move from earthly thinking to heavenly thinking - to stop living like s...

Summary: There's something profoundly moving about a father's final words to his children. When Jacob gathered his twelve sons around his deathbed in Egypt, he didn't simply say goodbye. He spoke prophetically over each one, revealing their character, their destiny, and the future of the nation that would spring from their lineage.

This moment, recorded in Genesis 49, is far more than an ancient family gathering. It's a window i...

Summary: Jacob's story is one of transformation. The deceiver became Israel, the prince with God. The schemer became the blesser. His final years in Egypt were marked by faith, maturity, and anticipation of God's promises. Your best chapter is yet to come. God is still working, still refining, still conforming you to the image of His Son. Be confident of this: He who began a good work in you will complete it (Philippians 1:6). So g...

Summary: Life often brings us to crossroads where the path forward seems uncertain. We stand at the border between what we know and what lies ahead, torn between the pull of our hearts and the wisdom of waiting. In these moments, we need more than good intentions—we need divine direction. Jacob (Israel) will be given Divine direction in our passage today as he takes the whole family down to Egypt; and along the way the Lord will gi...

Summary: In our passage Joseph reveals himself to his brothers who had sold him into slavery some 22-year prior. They are shocked, and of course fearful for their sin has found them out, and they stand before Joseph who has the power to punish them to death if he so choses. But Joseph will say to them, don't be grieved. Don't be troubled. In essence he is saying, I forgive you, I love you, I don't hold anything against you; so be f...

Summary: Our passage culminates with the brothers of Joseph have come to the end of their end, and all they have left is to cry out for mercy. Mercy…. ever want it? When you do want it, it will cry from the depth of your heart to receive it, nothing else in life will seem to matter at that moment. Mercy….. ever receive it? When you do receive it, it will be as a kiss of God, for mercy is the heart of God. Mercy…. ever give it? When...

Summary: The Lord continues to break and remake these 10 brothers into the men of God they need to be, as they will be the foundation of the great Nation Israel. God is forging them, and fashioning them, so He may do something great with them and in them. God does the same today, for every one of us, and it is a high calling, but worth it all…… so that God may be glorified! Join us as we study a passage that is not just about the s...

Summary: For the people, it has been 7 years of plenty, hey let the good times roll, never knowing a famine was coming.  How long into the famine before they realized this is serious.  And little did they know, but it was 20 years prior that God had been preparing for this famine, and raising up Joseph to lead them through it.  I wonder what God is doing today in my life, in your life, that is preparing for something 20 years down ...

Summary: After 13 years of slavery and imprisonment, Joseph will not only be free, but be made second in command of all or Egypt. Joseph was seventeen years old when he was lifted from the pit and taken to Egypt. Now he’s thirty and he’s reached the palace. In between were thirteen long, troubling years. There were many paths God could’ve used to get Joseph from the pit to the palace, but destination was not the point. By doing it ...

Summary: Joseph is in imprisoned, even though he did what was right. Choosing to do what is right doesn’t mean that everything will initially turn out wonderful.  We choose a do what is right because God is holy, and these are the standard that He sets for the people that He sets apart.  We have been bought with a price; living with that mindset, sets us apart from the world, and sets us above the world into the eternal perspective...
