I pray you have a Happy, Healthy, and Blessed New Year. Every desire that we have in life in not always reached by taking the easiest path to get there. Joshua had to face a Jericho, David had to face a giant, and Jesus had to face a cross. In each case great battles were required to win great rewards. In each case God made a super natural way to bring forth a super natural victory. Key for the New year; fight no battles that hold no spoils. The prize goes to the victor but if there is no prize you use your strength fighting for nothing. When the real battle comes and the prize is great you have no strength to fight with. Ask yourself today, 'Am I fighting any battles that hold no spoils? What do I win if I win?' I also believe that there are some battles that the victory is in escaping the problem and not beating the problem. It's possible to stay in a fight when the Lord has given you a way of escape but you fight on not wanting to lose. Pick your battles wisely and inquire of the Lord for victory. Motto: "We are a great team... in 2014!"
This is the first Sunday of 2014 and it's Family Sunday. What a wonderful way to begin the New Year. We start @10:15 with food and fellowship followed by the morning service. My message is, 'The Fruit Of My Lips.' Your words reveal the seeds that have grown in your heart for it's out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks. What will your words reveal about you in 2014? So come out and bring a three or four friend. On Family Sunday there is no evening service.
Continue to pray for those in need, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
