It's Our 14th Birthday!

This Sunday, 2 March 2014, it's our 14th Birthday!  We'll be having a sausage sizzle, Birthday cake and fantastic fellowship.  Nigel Walters will be fresh back from ministering in Cambodia and will be preaching.  He's always good value and makes you laugh with his unique style.  Come along and join with us at 10.00am at 54 Hill Street, Pt Elliot.

Seizing the Moment of Uncertainty

We can be seized by uncertainty to the point of inaction…or we can seize the moment of uncertainty and discover the will of God.  We need to do all we can to work out the will of God and through faith, we can.  The Holy Spirit will lead and guide us through the journey (He’s our Helper & Comforter) as we learn that;

• God leads by His written Word.   (Psalm 119:105)
• God leads little by little.   (Exodus 23:29-30)
• God leads through the counsel of spiritual leaders.   (Hebrews 13:17)
• God leads by our own best thinking.   (Ephesians 5:15-17)
• God leads through circumstances.   (Acts 17:16-34)
• God leads by the inner witness of the Holy Spirit.   (Romans 8:16)

By bringing all these together, we find that the peace that follows brings the revelation that we know, that we know, that we know the will of God for us…   Listen to the Message (Sunday 23 February 2014)

1 Samuel 14:6-8
⁶ Then Jonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the Lord will work for us. For nothing restrains the Lord from saving by many or by few.”

⁷ So his armorbearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart. Go then; here I am with you, according to your heart.”  ⁸ Then Jonathan said, “Very well, let us cross over to these men, and we will show ourselves to them.  (NKJV)

God Follows Through

God follows through on His promises.  He always has and He always will.  We can be assured of that because He's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.  He has also proven time and again that He never leaves us or forsakes us.

What He's done for His children over the ages,  He can do in our lives today because He is the same God.  The Bible is full of testimonies of His Grace and provision.  We can see this at a personal level in the lives of people such as Joseph and the Apostle Paul, and then we can also see how God moves just as effectively on a much larger scale with a group of people, such as the nation of Israel (600,000 people plus dependents and livestock - Exodus 12:37-38).

So it doesn't matter to God whether it's just one person, a group of people, a church, a city, or a nation - nothing is impossible to Him (Mark 10:27).  He follows through on His promises...   Listen to the Message (Sunday 9 February 2014)

Hebrews 13:8
⁸ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.  (NKJV)

Strengthened By The Holy Spirit

Today we enjoyed the ministry of visiting A2A Pastors, Eugene and Judy Bognar.  What beautiful people!  They were a great encouragement to us all, reminding us to be looking outward and forward, to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit, and to put our trust in God.  It was a timely message.  God is so gracious in reaching out to us through people like Eugene and Judy.  What a truly wonderful and magnificent Father we have.  Thanks for your love Dad!

We're all missing Paul and Robyn; it was our first week without our beloved Pastors.  We're thinking of them and praying for them as they enter a new season in Christ.  Always in our hearts and prayers.
