COMMUNION
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11
-Get God on your mind, get your heart right, and get ready to take communion. Take communion seriously and thank him for the things that he has done for you.
-Check yourself out and make sure you are ready to participate in communion.
SERMON
Scripture: Romans 12
-Just because everybody does it doesn’t make it right.
-People’s thinking may change but God’s word will not. Don’t be conformed to this world.
-Is your thinking worldly or is your thinking Godly?
-Being blessed does not solely mean the amount of things you have in your life. Being blessed centers around having the presence of God in your life.
Scripture: Psalms 122
-People don’t tend to ask “how long is it going to take” when it comes to world events but the often ask that about church events.
-People wait in line for hours to hear people sing nasty, vile, songs but won’t bother to attend a church service.
Scripture: Psalms 133
-If you think church is not a place for developing relationships with others and it’s just a place to come and leave then you are sadly mistaken.
-There is a reason why some people are always failing.
-Stupidity is a pattern.
-You are failing because you are practicing failing habits. While others are succeeding because the are practicing successful habits.
-Be transformed. Think different. Talk different.
-What have you had success doing in Christ?
-A lot of people are not seeking to grow. Don’t stay the same, be better.
-Your goal has to include God. First.
