The Gathering at Adell Audio Sermon

John 8:31-44 31 Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you continue in my word, you really are my disciples. 32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 33 “We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, ‘You will become free’?” 34 Jesus responded, “Truly I

Our words have power, but they only have authority when we are under His. Proverbs 18:21 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue,and those who love it will eat its fruit. Mark 11:23 23 Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does

God doesn’t call us to let go, He call us to walk with Him. Philippians 2:12-13 12 Therefore, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed, so now, not only in my presence but even more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God who is working in you both

Jesus didn’t come to sanitize us, He came to sanctify us. Mark 7:1-8 7 The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around him. 2 They observed that some of his disciples were eating bread with unclean—that is, unwashed—hands. 3 (For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, keeping

God brings reason to everything that happens. Romans 8:28 28 We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.

Sometimes life is more than we can handle… but God. 2 Corinthians 1:8-9 8 We don’t want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, of our affliction that took place in Asia. We were completely overwhelmed—beyond our strength—so that we even despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death, so that we

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is more deceitful than anything else,and incurable—who can understand it?

What feels like a dead end may be God’s invitation to draw near. Isaiah 40:31 but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;    they shall mount up with wings like eagles;they shall run and not be weary;    they shall walk and not faint. Romans 5:3-4 3 And not only that, but we also boast in our afflictions, because we know that

If we believe God only helps those who help themselves, then grace becomes a reward for effort, not a rescue for the helpless. Romans 5:6-8 The Justified Are Reconciled 6 For while we were still helpless, at the right time, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For rarely will someone die for a just person—though for a good person

When we trade clichés for scripture, we stop guessing at God’s heart and start hearing His voice. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, 17 so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
