Is there Room in Your Life for God?
Sometimes, we get so tired of our disappointment that we bury our hopes so we don't have to feel their pain. In 2 King 4:8-17, A wealthy woman in Shunem had been doing the same thing for years. Yet despite her pain and the ungodly leadership of the time, she had an idea of how to help a man of God and used her time and resources to bring it to fruition. Join Pastor Melvin as he teaches us how to focus on God and create room for him in our lives, no matter how messy, so that we can lay hold of the blessings has has for us here.

Poverty of Perspective
No matter what position we are in right now, we all have deficits. And when the devil can't take away what God has given us, he tries to make us feel like what we have is nothing. In 2 Kings 4:1-7, a certain woman tells Elisha she has sold everything to debt collectors and has "nothing" left. But our God is a big God, and he can do more with our "nothing" then we could do on our own with everything we think we need. Join Pastor Melvin as he tells us how to refocus on God and reap the benefits of his love and sovereignty today.

Wisdom and Revelation
Pastor John shows us in 2 Kings 6:8 how the King of Syria has no chance against the Kingdom of Israel who has God on their side. There is a fight for our focus, and where we focus determines how well we fight. Fear comes from forgetting that God is in control. Pray that God will open your eyes.

The God of "Yet" and "Not Yet"
Like using old paper maps, we often live by outdated information on who we are. We feel confused and stressed when we compare where we are with where we think we should be. Yet God is the God of where you expect to go and the God of the detour. Join Pastor Melvin as he shows us how Mary and Joseph's detour was part of God's purpose, and how your difficult experiences can bring forth God's deliverance in your life.

God is God, and God is Good

Abraham, Isaac, and Esau
Pastor Melvin takes us to Genesis 25, the beginning of the story of Jacob, but this time focusing on Esau. Esau traded his birthright, his right to inherit a vast fortune, for a bowl of beans. Though that may sound foolish, we do it every day when we prioritize quick fixes over the joy God's plan has in store for us. Join Pastor Melvin as he teaches us how to beware of the habits that lead to regret and enjoy the birthright we already have as children of God.
