We are walking in today:  Putting Our Faith And Trust In God.

This morning Minister Darryl will be teaching on putting our faith in God.  Thank you for your obedience to what God has given you to do!  We thank You, Lord for sending us a mighty and on-time word from You!  To hear more click here!

Ephesians 2:4-10 4) But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5) Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7) That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9) Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10) For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.James 1:3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
1 John 5:4  For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.1 Peter 1:7-9 7) That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8) Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9) Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Romans 1:17  For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

Thank You Lord, we pray that You would pour back into Minister Darryl for all that he poured out this morning, and in preparation for this word.  Thank You God for letting us know where to put our faith and trust--not in man but God!  He who fails not!  Who's words will stand forever!  We have to put all of our trust in Him!  For He alone is more than able to keep and bring you through!  Thank You God for all that You do and keep us from!  Trust and believe, fiveamprayer!  Thank You God!  We give you all of the glory!  All of the praise, we know that it is You and You alone who knows what Your plans are and You are in control!  Think of faith in God as water, faith is like oxygen and trust is like hydrogen.  You can have each element separately but you need both together to make water.  You have to have both to have faith!  Trust and believe because He works all things together for our good!  Thank You God.

A scripture to stand on when thinking and praying for those who were affected by Hurricane Sandy:

Job 38:22-30 (MSG)
“Have you ever traveled to where snow is made,
    seen the vault where hail is stockpiled,
The arsenals of hail and snow that I keep in readiness
    for times of trouble and battle and war?
Can you find your way to where lightning is launched,
    or to the place from which the wind blows?
Who do you suppose carves canyons
    for the downpours of rain, and charts
    the route of thunderstorms
That bring water to unvisited fields,
    deserts no one ever lays eyes on,
Drenching the useless wastelands
    so they’re carpeted with wildflowers and grass?
And who do you think is the father of rain and dew,
    the mother of ice and frost?
You don’t for a minute imagine
    these marvels of weather just happen, do you?

With all of these news reports of people telling us that it was luck that they made it out.  That a perfect storm would come in such a mighty way.  That the weather is doing something that has not been seen before!  We have to know and confess that this is an act of the Almighty God!  Thank You God for sending us this warning that we would come and repent, that we would turn from our wicked ways.  No longer seeking to do the things that seem right to a man.  We cast it away and take up Your way!  We repent and ask for forgiveness.  We ask that You would cover and keep those that were in this storm, that they come to find that You are in the middle of the storm.  That it was You who sent the storm and also meet you in the middle of the storm.  That You are looking to shake us up, to wake us up from our errors and out of order ways!  Now is the time to seek His face and to pray!  God sent a perfect storm, that even the scientist could not explain it.  The storm was sent by I AM.  Look at this with spiritual eyes!  Time is winding up!  God show them Your  glory!  That every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess, show them Your glory!  Hallelujah God. Thank You God for showing us Your glory on yesterday.  Wake up church--you are sleeping in the pews!  Put your trust in God, not man!  Wake up church!
