Doing more with your Faith

3/27/2022

Mike Anderson brought the message: You do have faith. You believe in Jesus.
But what exactly is this faith? How can you do more with your faith?
The song we listened to is "I speak JESUS" by Charity Gayle with Steven Musso

Hebrews 11:1-40
Hebrews 11:1 What is faith?
It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen.
It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.
Hebrews 11:6 So, you see, it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.
Ephesians 2:8-10|NLT
8 God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
10 For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so that we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
Jeremiah 29:13 If you look for me in earnest, you will find me when you seek me.

Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has appointed me to preach Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the downtrodden will be freed from their oppressors,
1 Thessalonians 5:17-19|NLT
17 Keep on praying.
18 No matter what happens, always be thankful, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
19 Do not stifle the Holy Spirit.
Ephesians 5:19 Then you will sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, making music to the Lord in your hearts.
1 Corinthians 13:13 There are three things that will endure -- faith, hope, and love -- and the greatest of these is love.
Jeremiah 29:13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

Philippians 4:4-9
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable -- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy -- think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me--put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
2 Samuel 12:19-20|NIV
19 David noticed that his servants were whispering among themselves and he realized the child was dead. "Is the child dead?" he asked. "Yes," they replied, "he is dead."
20 Then David got up from the ground. After he had washed, put on lotions and changed his clothes, he went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they served him food, and he ate.

There are so many voices calling Christians to "do this" or "do that".
How do we distinguish which are the true calls, and which false?
Pastor Dwayne touches on the pandemic, freedom calls and the war in Europe. Clarity comes from what Jesus told us about these times.

Romans 14:12-22
12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.
14 As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.
15 If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died.
16 Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil.
17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
18 because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.
19 Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.
21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.
22 So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself by what he approves.

1 Corinthians 14:3 But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort.

Matthew 13:1-58
Matthew 24:1-51
Matthew 25:1-46
1 Kings 18:18-46

John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

Romans 14:12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,

Matthew 24:3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"
Matthew 24:6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
Matthew 24:11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.
Matthew 24:12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,
