The I Am Is with you and for you and He is with you in your weakness.
Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
If you live by flesh, you die.  You can’t have your own agenda. You must be led by the Spirit. Many trials come to the righteous. There will be suffering in this present time.  Get your focus back on God. What have you allowed to get you down?  Do what God wants you to do. Satan wants you to lose focus and give up. Who shall bring charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. He is with you, He is for you. Don’t allow the enemy to take your focus off God.  Be accountable to God and to one another. Satan will remind you of who you were.
Numbers 14:9-10 The Lord is with us.  We are more than able.
Corinthians 4:18 We look not to things that are seen, but to those things that are unseen. 1) Things that are seen are transient, things that are unseen are eternal.
God is with you. He is fighting for you. Quit looking at
what is and Get your eyes on the Lord.
2 Corinthians 4: 16-17 Glory beyond all comparison.
Don’t lose heart. Outer self wasting away. Inner self being renewed.

3. He is not against you. 


Hearts on Fire for God (Everlasting Love)

Sunday Morning
Pastor Gloria
 
Luke 24:13-35 
Matthew 6:21-24 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The road is narrow and few find it. Come out from among them and be ye separate.  Do you love Me more?
Get rapture ready.
Too  busy to serve Me? No man can share My glory.  Get in order.  Get in the Word. Live the Word. Better listen to what God is saying. Watch what you get involved in.
You can either see or you can’t see. No one can serve two masters.  Actions speak louder than words. You cannot serve God and money.  Who persuaded you away from the truth?  Where is your devotion? Time to get the fire again.
Genesis 15:17 God confirmed His covenant with Abraham.  It was a smoking furnace and a burning lamp that passed between the pieces of the sacrifice.
Luke 24:25-27,

Exodus 19:18 Mt. Sinai-God descended upon in fire.
Acts 2 Holy Spirit was manifested
What brings the fire?
The Presence of God. 
Hearts on fire for the presence of God. 
Ways to put the fire out:
Pour water on it.
Smother it out.
Just neglect it, stop putting fuel on it. Eventually burn out.
It’s the same with our hearts toward God.
The only way to keep burning is don’t neglect.
Luke 24:25-27 Did not our hearts burn within us?
Fire ignited by scripture. God’s Word is powerful!. Scripture will change your life. Our walk with God will be intensified by communion with Him. Luke 10:38-42 Mary Martha.

Sunday am
Pastor Gloria
 
In the midst of your circumstances, Live what you preach.
 
Phillipians:1: 12-14 Advancement of the Gospel.  Get rid of the rear view mirror. I want you to know what has happened to me.  Go back to your altar, your place of prayer. Cover yourself with the Word. God wants to take you to another level. He wants you to advance. God is waiting to see if you can get through the trial. Don’t harden your heart. God wants you to progress. You are chosen and blessed. I’m gonna give my best. God allows tests.  He allows you to make choices. “My imprisonment is for Christ.” God is in control. When you don’t know what to do, just stand. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. It will strengthen those around you because of what you are going through.  Devil would love for you to shut up! Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might.  The Lord will make a way where there seems to be no way. Speak the Word without fear.
 
Romans 8:28
James 1:13-15 Do Not Be Deceived!
Romans 8:28 God does not say that all things are  good. James 1:16-17 Good things come from God. Look at the unfair trial of Jesus. God is in control from start to finish. Phil 1:12-17 Paul was awaiting before Caesar in Rome.

4. Use this prayer from God’s Word. Isaiah 55:11
