Right On The Money - Two Master One Throne

Join us as we start our new series, Right On The Money.  This week Pastor Neli helps us identify how we might perceive the blessings from God in the context of money. What is your master? Is it God or is it money? God is your source of provision so worship him with all you have. Money is a magnification of what’s in your spirit so looking within and identify who is the master of your money?

No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. - Matthew 6:24 (ESV)

We Love This City - How We Build

Join us as we continue with our current series, We Love This City.  Henry Peterson helps us to understand that we are to build our community through building relationships. The foundational relationship to build our community begins on our own personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Do you look for opportunities to pray for your community? How active are you in your relational prayer life?

So in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in open places, I stationed the people by their clans, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.  And I looked and arose and said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, “Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes.” - Nehemiah 4:13-14 (ESV)

We Love This City - Go Where?

Join us as we continue our current series, We Love This City.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to determine the importance on where we are called.  When you work where you are, your work becomes your worship. God calls you based not only on what you can do but it’s more about where you are called and the people in that place. Is the work that God has called you to do a great work? Be obedient in the place God has called you.

And I said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, “The work is great and widely spread, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another. In the place where you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us.” - Nehemiah 4:19-20 (ESV)

We Love This City - The Who

Join us in person or online as we continue with our current series, We Love This City.  This week Pastor Neli Helps us realise how we can worship God by bringing excellence in the work we do. How are your day to day activities extending the kingdom of God?  Who has God called you to build along side and who are you to be as builder?

And I told them of the hand of my God that had been upon me for good, and also of the words that the king had spoken to me. And they said, “Let us rise up and build.” So they strengthened their hands for the good work. - Nehemiah 2:18 (ESV)

We Love This City - The Man Who Cried Wall

Join us as we start our new series, We Love this City.  This week Pastor Neli starts our new series by talking about a spiritual wall that God has called you to build around your city and your life, a wall to protect from the enemy, preserve God’s glory, and to provide peace. The person that God uses has a burden for His people, and a vision for and commitment to His purpose.   So be encouraged to build the wall that God’s called you to build today.

Remember the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the peoples, but if you return to me and keep my commandments and do them, though your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there I will gather them and bring them to the place that I have chosen, to make my name dwell there.’ They are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand. - Nehemiah 1:8-10 (ESV)

The Mystery of Us - Ephesians 6:14-20

Join us online or in person as we continue with our current series, The Mystery of Us.  This week Pastor Neli continues with our focus on spiritual warfare by explaining the use of the armour of God. Do you trust the Lord with all your hearts or trust in your own capacity? Take the word of God and yield it against the enemy when we pray so when we pray the word of God we yield it like a sword.

Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak. - Ephesians 6:14-20 (ESV)

The Mystery of Us - Ephesians 6:10-13

Join us as we continue our current series, The Mystery of Us.  This week Pastor Neli helps us determine how we can battle and defend ourselves in spiritual warfare.  There is no maturity in our Christianity if we isolate. The best way to grow in God is to stay connected to his church. So put on the armour of God, doing all you can, and stand firm.

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. - Ephesians 6:11-12 (ESV)

The Mystery of Us - Ephesians 4

Join us as we continue with our current series, The Mystery of Us.  This week pastor Neli helps us to identify how we can walk in our new self in Christ. We should worship God with our integrity and excellence. Will you choose today to follow the new life that God has for you or will you hold onto the old life?

assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. - Ephesians 4:21-24 (ESV)

The Mystery of Us - Relating to Others

Join us as we continue our series, The Mystery of Us.  This week Henry Peterson talks to us about our relationships with God and to those around us. How does the biblical lens look when it comes to relating to others?  Trust, honesty, and humility are essential in building strong and healthy relationships with the people around us as we reflect to them the kind of relationship we are having with God our Father.

Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. - Ephesians 5:31-33 (ESV)

The Mystery of Us - Ephesians 3-4:16

Join us as we continue with our current series, The Mystery of Us.  Pastor Neli continues to reflect from the Book of Ephesians, this week focussing on chapters 3 and 4.  Grace by nature is undeserved. We don’t deserve God’s grace but He gives it to us.  True worship happens wether you’re suffering or not.  He is glorified while we walk along side one another.

And this is God’s plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus.  By God’s grace and mighty power, I have been given the privilege of serving him by spreading this Good News. - Ephesians 3:6-7 (NLT)
