  • Victory Over Sin, The World, The Flesh, and The Devil

    Have you ever felt spiritually stuck—saved but defeated, redeemed yet overwhelmed? You're not alone. In this powerful message, we dive deep into the paradox many Christians face: having eternal security while struggling with daily victory.

    Victory isn't a one-time event but an ongoing journey. As we explore Colossians 2:6-10, we discover that the same faith that saved us initially must sustain us daily through life's challenges. Like Jehoshaphat in the Old Testament, we face overwhelming enemies—doubt-ites, fear-ites, family-ites, money-ites—that threaten to derail our spiritual progress. The crucial question becomes: do we run to the phone or to the throne when troubles come?

    The internal conflict between our old nature and new Spirit-led nature creates constant tension. While the world teaches us to see first, then believe, God's kingdom operates in reverse: believe first, then you'll see. Our assignment isn't to achieve but simply to believe, allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us. This produces the fruit that pleases God and brings lasting victory.

    We all have "But God" stories—testimonies of divine intervention when circumstances seemed hopeless. They said the affliction would worsen, "but God." They said there was no way out, "but God." And these stories aren't just about your past; there are more "But God" moments in your future.

    Whether you're a new believer wondering where the initial joy has gone, or a seasoned Christian facing fresh battles, this message offers practical wisdom for walking in victory over sin, the world, the flesh, and the devil. Faith calls us out of comfort into the unknown, but it also enables us to answer that call with confidence, knowing we are indeed "more than conquerors through Him who loved us."

    Have you ever wondered why we're invited to "buy without money" in Isaiah 55? In this powerful message delivered by Daniel Johnson, we discover how this paradoxical invitation encapsulates the entire gospel message.

    The sermon examines God's passionate call—"Ho, everyone who thirsts"—as He tries to get our attention like a vendor at a ballgame. This cry isn't just an Old Testament metaphor; it's God removing every barrier between us and salvation. The preacher weaves together Isaiah 55 with the suffering servant passage of Isaiah 53, revealing how Jesus paid the ultimate price so we could come freely to God's table.

    What's particularly striking is the challenge to modern Christianity. Have we forgotten what it means to truly follow Christ? The message asks whether we've downgraded our relationship with Jesus from bride to mere roommate. Through references to the Sermon on the Mount and Jesus's parable of the Great Supper, we're confronted with a critical question: Why do we spend our money, time, and energy on things that don't satisfy when God offers us abundance freely?

    The most compelling insight comes when Mr. Johnson addresses how Satan attacks our testimony. Like a witness being discredited in court, our Christian witness loses power when our lives don't match our words. "Your preaching is pennies and your deeds are dollars," quotes the sermon from Spurgeon.

    This call to authentic Christianity culminates with Jesus's invitation from the parable: "Come, for everything is now ready." The time to respond is now—not when we've finished our business, checked our property, or satisfied worldly obligations. God has prepared the feast; will you accept His invitation today?

    The pendulum of end-times teaching has swung between alarmist date-setting and dismissive indifference—but what does Scripture actually say about Christ's return? In this powerful message, we cut through centuries of misguided predictions to uncover a refreshing biblical perspective on the rapture and second coming.

    From medieval apocalyptic fears to modern blood moon hysteria, Christians have repeatedly been led astray by those claiming to know exactly when Jesus will return. But these failed predictions have caused many believers to either live in constant dread or completely ignore end-times teaching altogether. Neither response honors what Scripture actually teaches.

    Through a careful examination of Jesus' ascension and the promise of His return "in like manner," we discover that the rapture won't be a secret, silent event but an announced reunion between Christ and His bride. The Greek word for "air" in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 places this meeting less than a mile from earth—a powerful image of our Bridegroom's eagerness to meet us.

    Most importantly, this message reframes our anticipation of Christ's return from fear to joy. Rather than dreading the trumpet sound, true believers should be lifting up their heads because "your redemption draws near." When we understand the distinction between the rapture (Christ coming for His church) and the second coming (Christ returning with His church), we gain clarity about God's prophetic timeline without getting lost in speculative details.

    What would change in your life if you knew Jesus was returning tomorrow? Start living ready today. Don't get distracted by worldly pursuits or compromise your walk with Christ. Look up, stay watchful, and rejoice—your Bridegroom is coming!
