BY GLENN PEASE When Columbus and his crew were being blown West by the Atlantic trade winds, one of the reasons they were so fearful was they did not know how they could get back home against the wind. Fortunately they discovered not only a new world, but new winds that carried them back to Spain. They…

Introduction The struggle to live called by God. When I first read the bible I struggled with the thought of trying to be like Jesus, to live my life by his commands. “If you love me, keep my commands. Jesus is asking me to keep His commands, this is the proof that I love Him. Think about this, have…

Before Jesus commands his followers to "go," he first commands that they "wait." God's Spirit empowers God's people with His presence to glorify and enjoy Him for the work in the waiting.

The power of God's Spirit comes upon us when we expect, prepare, and declare God's Word

Jesus was leaving his disciples. “If you love me, keep my commands.” – Jesus instructs us to increase in love and good works after we have come to faith in him. “The world cannot accept him” – Those who do not believe have not seen God with the spiritual eyes of faith, therefore, cannot know God. Where…

You will always harvest what you plant. 8 Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live…

We admire how Jesus walked this earth, or swam this sea of suffering, but we never dare to imagine that we could do more than a fraction of what he has done. However, he said that not only that we will do what he has done, but we will be able to do greater works than he did. I think this is the most challenging commandment he has ever given us. The question is "How can we fulfill this expectation of Jesus Christ for us?" Let's find the answer from John 14:8-17.

A celebration of Pentecost from the historical day the believers were filled with the Holy Spirit and a celebration of each new day the Holy Spirit fills our hearts with fresh fire for today.

This morning’s text is a familiar one - it’s a story for the ages, we hear it referred to all the time anytime a, quote, “little guy” takes on a bigger guy. It’s the theme of movies, sports, even reported on in our daily news. It’s the story of David and Goliath. We all know the gist of the story. David,…

Introduction The world is reeling from anger and mistrust. Coven 19 and the riots in our cities serve as evidence that people need hope, assurance, and peace. Today is Pentecost. On the liturgical calendar the Church celebrates the day in which the Holy Spirit empowered the church for a purpose. I find…

1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he…

By Pastor Glenn Pease Columbus was on his fourth voyage in 1504. His ships were grounded in St. Ann's Bay in Jamaica, and the natives revolted and refused to supply the Spaniard with food. There seemed to be no way of escaping the agonies of starvation. Columbus was looking at the almanac, and he learned…

In Acts 3, we see that the church is called to glorify God by bringing the powerful love of Jesus to the physical, mental, social, and spiritual tragedy around us.

God knew that Moses couldn’t handle all the load by himself. In fact, Moses knew that Moses couldn’t handle all the load by himself. So God instructed Moses to gather 70 men of Israel and God took some of the Spirit on Moses and placed it on them so that they could help Moses. God said in the last days that He would pour out His Spirit upon all flesh. Today as Christians, we have access to the indwelling presence of the Spirit of God. God is anointing all believers with His Spirit to fulfill the Great Commission and to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the entire world. Are you operating in the anointing that God has placed on your life?

The Christmas story is not only about the birth of Christ but also of those born in the Spirit. When we understand that the Christmas story is not over, we find ourselves very much a part of that story. We, like John, have been indwelt with the Spirit of God and we too have the job of preparing the ways of the Lord in anticipation of his soon return.
