Sermons on Spiritual Growth (Page 10)
Fear No More
God has NOT given us a spirit of bondage, cowardice, timid, servile. The Christian “spirit” is referring to the inner character of a Christ-like person. 2 Timothy 1:7 7 For God has not given us a spirit of [a]timidity, but of power and love and [b]discipline.
Faith Ever Growing
Growing Faith: More patience More Kindness More Generosity More Hospitality More Forgiveness 2 Thessalonians 1:3 3 We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren, as is only fitting, because your faith is greatly enlarged, and the love of each one of you toward one another grows ever greater;
God’s Covenants
God’s covenant with Noah. Genesis 8:20-22 20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 The Lord smelled the soothing aroma; and the Lord said [a]to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the [b]intent of man’s heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again [c]destroy every living thing, as I have done. 22 “While the earth remains,Seedtime and harvest,And cold and heat,And summer and winter,And day and nightShall not cease.”
The Narrow Road Code Part 4 -To Walk Humbly With Your God
I Walk with the King! Before you can speak about the “HOW” of Walking You have to know “WHO” you are walking with. Define the “WHO…” And you will properly define the “HOW.” John 13:15 15 For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.
The Narrow Road Part 3 – To Love Kindness
It’s hard to find anything more beautiful than kindness… And hard to find anything more ugly than cruelty. 1 Peter 3:8-10 8 [a]To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; 9 not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but [b]giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing. 10 For, “The one who desires life, to love and see good days,Must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.
The Narrow Road Code Part 2 – But to do justice
To do justly—To give to all their dueTo do justly—Jesus and usJustice demands that man dies away from GodJesus took the curse 1 Peter 3:18 18 For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the [a]spirit;
’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
There are a lot of good people around. We take people as they come and assume the best. We start by assuming the best of those who speak about Jesus 1 Corinthians 2:14-15 14 But [a]a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually [b]appraised. 15 But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is appraised by no one.

How Privileged We Are To Serve.
To serve God, to serve his church, being able to serve in any capacity.When it comes to christianity we are not called to be spectators. Ephesians 2:10 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
New Year Resolutions
What is our resolve?What is your resolve?What motivates you serve?In the church what is your resolve that motivates you to do something for the kingdom? 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 2 And so it was with me, brothers and sisters.
