Send us a textNOTE: The first part of the message was not recorded.Every day we are faced with obstacles to our faith in G-d and His promises for our lives. It is easy to become discouraged and overwhelmed by life causing us to wonder if G-d will ever fulfill His word in our situation. Like Avraham, we must have faith that hopes against the odds because our G-d is greater! We must exercise our faith in the same way as Avraham keeping our focus on the G-d who is able to do more than we could imagine or think. As we live by faith, G-d will move in our lives fulfilling the promise that He has made.

Send us a textOur message entitled, "Behavior that makes a Difference” will help us with the nuts and bolts of what it is going to take to truly make a difference in our lives, in our homes, in our community, in our nation and in the world around us. When we read in the Scriptures of the men and women who made a difference in their world, we can recognize certain behavior on their part that enabled them to impact their world. It is this behavior that we want to practice in our daily lives so that we can see the same results. Right now I am reading through the Book of Acts and I am challenged to see my life and this community change our world just like the first century followers of Yeshua changed their world. Let’s look at what kind of behavior it will take.

Send us a text"It sounds counter intuitive because we are used to hearing about successful people and people that succeed. These are the people that are the real difference makers in the world. Ultimately, that is true, but the fact is success comes through failure. The reason why it might sound unusual to us is because if it is true then everyone can make a major difference in the world,. Who among us has not failed? We all fail and it is our attitude toward failure that will be the determining factor in our ability to change the world or not. It’s not because we fail but it is what do we do after we fail that is important."

Send us a textDifficulties arise. We face hardship and obstacles to our faith and to G-d’s call on our lives. What do we do when this is the case? It is easy to throw in the towel saying this is not worth it. However, Adonai would encourage us that we need to be committed to making a difference even in the midst of difficult circumstances. This means we must rise above the hindrances and struggles so that the people around us will be impacted with the presence of Adonai that they too may experience His transforming power.

Send us a textWe should understand that when Adonai introduced the New covenant through the death burial and resurrection of Mashiach. He did it with the expectation that believers would be carriers and couriers of the Good news message in and through their current lives.Only let each person live the life the Lord has assigned him and live it in the condition he was in when G-d called him. This is the rule I lay down in all the congregation. (1Cor 7:17)This scripture does not prohibit improving your position in life but it does suggest that we are to be faithful and fruitful in the life that we are currently living. For the few who are called to full time ministry they are to do that, for those that find themselves in a particular vocation they should operate as faithful ministers of G-d within their sphere of life. That can be as a hospital worker, a stay at home mom, social work, a business owner and any other area that you might find yourself in. So people working in the medical field, moms raising kids an

Send us a text We have been born anew, our spirits have been made alive and we have connected to G-d in a real and living way. Too often after we have had this wonderful transformative experience we are buffeted and restricted by our old nature. We find it hard to soar with the Ruach because we are shackled down by the earthly, and confined to living moment by moment by our feelings and senses. Today I want to challenge and inspire you to be transformed in how you live out your life. Instead of being restricted by your five fleshly senses I challenge you to be liberated and inspired by how a life lived by faith can transform the way you see things and open up new possibilities. Faith is the mechanism by which we access Kingdom promises and enter into kingdom living. Making a shift in how we live our life is really critical in living a fruitful and successful life in G-d.
