The Spiritual Gift of Healing - Pastor Daniel Nelms

1 Corinthians 12:1-11

As we consider the gift of healing, we are assured that God does heal people today. All believers should pray for the healing of those in need. However, it's also important to reaffirm that Jesus is the one who does the healing, not us. Beware of those who exalt themselves, or expect financial compensation. We also find that there are different kinds of healing that can occur.

As we continue our study of spiritual gifts, we consider prophecy:

The Spiritual Gift of Wisdom - Pastor Daniel Nelms

1 Corinthians 12:1-8

Spiritual Gifts are given to all who have the Holy Spirit within. They are gracious and free blessings from God for His glory. There are many of them, but all come from the same Spirit. We begin our study of the Spiritual Gifts, with Wisdom, which is competence with regard to the complex realities of life. It's the wisdom of God, not man's.

Can I Hear God's Voice Today? - Pastor Daniel Nelms

John 10:1-11

God does speak to us today, but we need to recognize His voice. We must know His character, as made clear in the Bible. Then we need to wait on Him, not just talking all the time. As we are still, and open up ourselves to His guidance, we can sense His presence. If he guides us in some way, we need to take the risk of obedience.

How Can I Walk in the Spirit? - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Galatians 5:13-23

Life with the Holy Spirit involves recognizing his presence with us daily. It means letting go of those fleshly desires and lifestyles. We may wrestle with sinful thoughts and deeds, but the Holy Spirit is there to help us manifest the positive fruits. As we consciously take steps to avoid sin, the Holy Spirit empowers us to overcome. We're actually unable to successfully do so on our own.

Can I Be Filled With the Holy Spirit? - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 1:13-15; 5:18

As we continue the series on "Life with the Holy Spirit", we see our need to be filled with the Spirit. The Holy Spirit comes to dwell in us when we accept Christ as our personal Savior, but we need to pray that the Holy Spirit fills our whole being. We need to empty ourselves and make room for him to work through us in power and wisdom.

Who is the Holy Spirit? - Pastor Daniel Nelms

John 14:12-21

We begin a several week series on "Life With The Holy Spirit". In this first sermon, we see who the Holy Spirit is, and how he's been manifest from creation until now. He was involved in the life of Jesus from his birth to his resurrection. Currently, the Spirit enables God’s work of salvation, and enables us to experience that salvation daily.

Life Without Lack - Brian Boswell

Psalm 23

As we look at the 23rd Psalm, we are reminded that God is a loving Shepherd, who cares for each of his sheep. We can be assured that He is always leading us to places that meet our needs. No matter the valleys we may face, He is there to strengthen and restore us. We need not fear the future. We can trust His loving heart.

Living Out the Good News of Jesus - Pastor Daniel Nelms

1 Corinthians 15:1-8

Christianity is a Good News faith. God has not abandoned us, but offers us new life through Christ. In this 1 Corinthians passage, Paul defines the Good News of Jesus's life, death, burial and resurrection. We need to live out that new life daily. Two testimonies were shared before and after this brief sermon, and 8 individuals declared their faith publicly in the time of water baptism later in the service.

Unity in a Diverse Church - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 4:1-6

The early Church began with Jewish believers in the Messiah. The book of Acts recounts how the Gospel then spread throughout the Gentile world. As the Church became more diverse, Peter, Paul, and others wrote letters to various churches, to help them deal with some of the issues that arose between various cultures. It was made clear that all should humble themselves and seek unity. There is one Body of Christ.
