Sermons on Acts
A Word to Build (Hag 2)
It had been 16 years from the end of the exile to Haggai. People returned with a desire to rebuild Jerusalem and the temple. They had the government and the priesthood, but didn’t have a prophet. They couldn’t build without a word from God and neither can we. We’re nothing without the Spirit of God indwelling us, leading us. Scripture: Acts…
The 3rd Beginning
In the beginning, “Let there be light” (Genesis). “In the beginning was the Word…” (John). The 3rd beginning was the Book of Acts, men doing things as a continuation of the work Jesus did, moving in His Spirit and authority to teach, heal, prophesy, cast out demons and manifest His everlasting life & love to the world. We’re in…
Repentance, Wind and Fire
God brought the fire to separate the children of Israel from the armies of Israel at the Red Sea and He brought the wind to dry the land so His people could move forward in Him. God gives us the Holy Spirit to get between us and the darkness we’ve left behind. It’s to lead us on in such a relationship with Him that nothing separates us and His Word is…
Led By The Spirit
Apostles were scattered in Acts, and it sounds like Philip went to Samaria by choice. He went by Divine Appointment because the time was now ripe for them to receive and be saved. Peter & John were led by Spirit to go and lay hands on those people so they’d receive the Holy Spirit. What God did in the Apostles, He will do in us as we learn to exercise…
Born of God
We are the offspring of God, why do we live at a level lower than that? We’re born of God but the church has a dysfunctional attitude about the flesh coming into righteousness. Christ is meant to be manifested through us in authority and power but we have to let out lives be altered by God. Acts 9:1-12, John 1:8-13, 1 John 3:2-16
The Anchor Holds
The hour is chaotic and we’re all wanting God to fix things in the physical realm. In reality, God wants us to lean on Him for our physical needs while He works to get our hearts and spiritual lives in order. It’s not a time to panic, but to pray. Scripture: Acts 1:4-8, Acts 28:16-31
The Measureless Love of God
In Gen 1 God reveals Himself as a God of light, voice, separation, consistency, renewal, replenishing & most of all, measureless love. Scripture: Gen 1:1-15, Acts 1:6-8
A Devout Man
There were 3 men described as “devout” in the New Testament. Each story was about how God moved powerfully in their lives, honoring their devotion. Be encouraged that as we determine to be devout in our relationship with God He will use us and move through us in the same ways. Scripture: Acts 8:1-3, Luke 2:25-35, Acts 10:1-6
The Restitution of All Things
The church has a destination and all the tools needed to arrive successfully, but the priority is big buildings and successful men instead of souls and knowing God and His plan for the end times. God showed these things by the mouth of all His prophets, so the church should know the plan because Jesus opened The Book.
How Will You Spend the Last Days?
God is bringing the church to an appointment with change. Some of us are still in “take your ease, easy living Christianity” mode. Others already know Jesus as their very breath, their shield and buckler. Knowing Him less is as nothing and all of Christianity is going to get rid of the foolishness as we come under pressure. In 2 Timothy 3, Paul was writing to Timothy…
