The Father’s love for you is so deep and so complete that He actually gave His own body and blood for you. The body and blood of Jesus Christ has established a New Covenant with mankind and has made it available to anyone who would believe. It is a Covenant that provides wholeness and produces a fear-free life.

The Father has provided wholeness for each of us through the finished work of His Son. None of us deserve it. None of us could pay for it. It is a gift and He paid for it. When we realize how much He loves us, and the righteousness He has given us, FOMO is removed from our lives.

When we purchase a home and move into it, we begin to care for it. If anything is broken, we see to it that it is fixed, or replaced with a new one. If something does not belong there, we see to it that it is removed. If something is missing, we obtain it. So it is with the Father. You are HIs home.

When you put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you became God’s new address. You are God’s house. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead is living in you. Talk with Him, interact with Him all throughout your day, in your kitchen, your garage, at work, at the store. Experience the power of a daily relationship with Him.

The very essence of the New Covenant was the realization of the Father’s dream to dwell in man, to make man His home. You are God’s house. The life-producing power of our relationship with God begins to flow when we realize that we have become His house, His home. He lives IN us. We live IN Him.

God, the Father, revealed Himself to Moses as the I am that I am, not the I do that I do. I am is the first-person conjugation of the verb to be. I am, you are, they are, we are. Christianity is about being, not doing. It’s about Who Christ Is and Who We Are In Him. After all, we were created in the image of God, and that makes us human beings, not human doings. The Church, too, is about being, not doing. What we do is to flow from who we are.

You are more important than the things you are tempted to get stressed about. Jesus puts everything in Martha’s life into proper perspective. In Luke 10:41, He makes it clear that Martha is much more important than all of the things she feels need to get done. Jesus reveals the value of Martha as a person. HWY family, you are not what you do. You are not the things that need to get done. You are not a task. You are not a project. You are a hand-crafted, custom-made masterpiece of the Creator of Heaven and Earth

As we cultivate a singular focus on knowing Christ and spend time developing our relationship with Him, the Word of God and the Spirit of God are able to work inside of us. As we focus our time, energy, and resources on knowing Him, an internal calibration takes place that enables us to live the abundant life He came to give us and walk in His plan for our lives.

Only one thing is needed, to worship the One made you. To worship Him is to know Him, to grow in relationship with Him, to choose to be attentive to His desires and leading. Those who are attentive to Him will exchange their strength for His strength.

Would you believe someone it they told you that only one thing is needed in your life? It may sound ridiculous, but actually it is true. In this series we will learn that there is only one thing needed in your life, to worship the One who made you. We will learn to develop a singular focus on our relationship with Christ, cast our cares on Him, and let Him accomplish the things that concern us.

Know that the Lord, He is God. It is He that has made us and not we ourselves. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Depression has been whipped! In God’s presence is fullness of joy and if you are in Christ, God’s presence is in you!

Religious tradition has focused on sin and man’s failure, but has not given man the answer. The Gospel gives us the answer to sin and failure, and reveals to us the abundant life that is available to anyone who would believe!

The law reveals the righteousness of God and how far we have fallen. The Gospel reveals God’s total forgiveness, and the righteousness that God has given to us through the finished work of His Son.

The vast majority of believers are living their lives thinking there is a distance between them and God. They have not realized, and have not heard, that the finished work of Jesus has cancelled all distance between them and God. Through Christ, God has become their very own Father and they have become His very own children.

Knowing God’s thoughts was the very reason Jesus came. God’s thoughts will elevate you and lift you up into a new way of living.

It has always been God’s desire that we think according to His thoughts, that we follow His lead in our lives. He passionately invites us to know His thoughts, to know HIs will, and to know His plan.

“Repent” is a poor translation of the Greek word, “metenoeo”. “Mentenoeo” means to change your mind and change your purpose by changing your thinking. Jesus calls us to “think differently, change our mind, and change our purpose” by believing the Good News He preached about God.

Many have been given the impression that Christianity is about confession of sins. However, Jesus began His ministry by calling for us, not to confess our sins, but to change our mind.

Home is the place you live, the place you belong. the place you develop your potential, and the place you realize your true identity. Christ invites us to make our home with Him. When Christ becomes your home, you will realize the fullness of life, belonging, identity, and potential that your heart longs for.
