What does it look like to love a person whose hostility threatens? Jesus teaches us to love our enemies.

Do you find it hard to function from all of the clutter in your life.

Waiting on God to lead us, and obey God's command to move when He directs us.

the fact Jesus knows what hurts the human heart shows itself in His relationships with people as recorded in the Gospels - the broken hearted Mary Magdalen, the adulterous woman fearing for her life, the Samaritan woman with a history of failed relationships, parents with sick children. these speak of Jesus' compassion and capacity to empathise and move into desperate circumstances

We can forget the past and focus on the future. We are God's people called to be His followers and work towards what God has planned for our future. Honour the past, learn from it and press into God's purposes for the future

when we believe in Jesus Christ the Holy Spirit does not just empower to do certain things, but indwells and fills us.

Joseph - the things told to him and his responses

We do not know the date and time of Christ. Will we be asleep when Christ Comes? are we prepared to wait for Christ.

Jesus understood who he was and what His purpose was. he demonstrated this ministry. Jesus in His humanity gives Himself completely over to every opportunity to those who feel "inglorious" and gives them glory and lays on them grace and mercy in order to allow them to live in the way God wants them to live

We are created in the image of God. He created us a little lower than the angels. God is number 1, We are number 2 and Satan is a distant number 3

Jesus still keeps His promise to set captives free

The world is going mad for super heroes. Why are we so fascinated by super heroes. We need to ensure that we do not bow to anyone but God

We live in an instant world. We want instant results, success and fame. We don't always see the hard work that goes behind peoples success. Do we get sucked into the desire for instant success as Christians. Do we want instant growth and maturity as Christians, or do we develop our walk with Jesus through daily interaction with Him. Things of substance and worth are developed over time

Jesus had a special interest in "the not good enough's"

Sinners like being around Jesus and they long for His company despite the fact, in a most unsettling way, Jesus exposed their failures.

As Christians and good stewards, how seriously should we look after the world and environment around us. God created the world and saw that it was good. If the God we follow thinks the world is good, then we should think the same and treat it with respect. We need to ensure that we don't go to opposite extremes with nature

Fellowship with the Father; Empowerment by the Spirit

If salvation was a video game, it would be a free game waiting on the shelf for us to pick up. God has thrown in some redeem codes to keep us wanting to play on

We identify with Jesus, His life and mission, which are now ours. Jesus is to fight against evil and to come against temptation
