SERMON ARCHIVE

Ma 6, '23. Series. "10 Commandments: God's Heart on a stone." Title:"Behind every good law is love."

Oftentimes God allows evil to have its way in challenging our faith. During these time we question God, His character, discernment, and sometime existence. Yet, we don't have to look far to see evidence to the contrary in our lives. It is in these times we need to dig deeper into our faith rather than run from it. The question we have to ask ourselves is not about God, but about us. What is crippling our faith? We can claim the provision of God and celebrate in victory because Jesus established a covenant
for all who believe. God really is that good.

There is nothing more exciting than making a commitment to following Jesus. Yet, between giving our lives to Him and the Second Coming of Jesus, there is life to live that is filled with highs and lows and many times difficulties. This is where we need to put our new life in Christ into practice. This was the case when the Children of Israel were in the wilderness for 40 years. God gave them festivals to celebrate throughout the year to keep their focus on God. Today, we need to find ways to celebrate our life in Christ. It's what keeps us inspired, focused, grounded, and growing in Christ. Is what you’re building right now going to let God bless you beyond this life?
When we invest our time and resources in God, the rewards will not only be greater than what
we put in but will bring lasting change because the blessings come from the hand of God and not our own.

April 15, 2023. Sermon Series "Festivals of Faith." Sermon Title: "Second Chance Blessing."

The Passover was a festival of celebration in the Children of Israel being released from slavery for over 450 years. This celebration commemorates God's provision of setting them free from the chains of bondage. Yet, the Passover meal was nothing luxurious or grand but plain and simple. The more we allow God to rule in our lives, we too will find the excessively of living to be enslaving. We need to ask ourselves: What in your life needs to die in order for God to give you new life?
When we celebrate the resurrection of Christ we are not only claiming that we are dying to
ourselves and rising to new life in Jesus but we are also surrendering to Him control over our life’s directions and
choices because He is now living in us to do His good pleasure.

April 8, 2023. Sermon Series: "Festivals of Faith" Part 2. Sermon: "Celebration of the Savior."

The Old Testament Festivals were God's way of reminding His people to celebrate life but doing it in a way that honors God. God gave the festivals as reminders for God's people to lean on God because it is He who provides and protects them. In the context of discipleship, there is more to being a follower of God from the time He sets us free from Spiritual Slavery in Egypt to the time we enter the Spiritual Promised Land. Discipleship takes on daily practices, disciplines, and the festivals are part of that process. The question we need to ask yourself is this: Where do you need to celebrate God in your life? Celebrating God in praise activates your faith to lean on God as protector and provider as you reenacts the same festivals those who had gone before in pointing to the salvation of Jesus today and for the future.

April 1, 2023. Sermon Series: "Festivals of Faith." Sermon Title: "The Power Of a Party."

As disciple of Jesus we believe God gives us visions for our lives. Yet when they don't turn out the way we plan, we question the vision. In this sermon we are reminded through the life of Joseph that God's vision for him is the same outcome but it has a different path in getting there. Moreover, this vision didn't just happen but required Joseph to play an intricate role in how he spoke, talk, responded and lived in order for him to realize it. Like Joseph, we need to ask ourselves, What daily discipline do you practice that displays the gospel in your life?
The mark of a mature discipleship is having Jesus incarnated in your life by submission to His
Spirit and then displaying His love in all ways, situations, and circumstances, and especially to those who don’t
deserve it for God’s glory.

Why is Vision so important? We need to know that we are not alone even when working together. We often get sidetracked in our little silos forgetting to depend and encourage one another. Pastor Bill reminds us of the importance of Vision and the results of having one in place.

March 10, 2023: Friday Night. Voice of Prophecy Presents: "Vision: Nuts and Bolts." -Dr. Bill Payne

We start a new Sermon Series this month entitled: "Transformative Discipleship." Discipleship is learning and growing more and more into the character of God through the power of the Holy Spirit. We realize that God is not just changing one area of our lives but all parts of it. It's a total being experience. It's more than learning the Bible but practicing it. It's more than just eating right, creating a godly inner circle, serving the least of these, and doing the right thing. It also includes loving ourself and our enemies. There is a so much that requires submission to Christ that discipleship includes the totality of our being in order to be truly effective disciples of Jesus. Today, we will see how one area in our lives that is not submitted to God, can wreak havoc if we are not willing to submit all things to God. Let's look at the life of Rachel, Jacobs wife.

February 18, 2023: "Restoration of the Son" Ministries. Michael and Lynn Harris.

This is part 2 of the Discipleship process. Last week we discussed, "I do, you watch." Today, we discuss how Jesus ask the disciples, or in this case, seekers to help. Sure there are many ways Jesus does miracles without people asking and seeking it, but most of the time each believer plays a role in making that happen. We call that, 'helping.' We don't have the power or know how to do miracles but God does and He chooses to use us as His vessels and instruments to bring healing to others and ourselves if we but seek Him and follow Him with our entire being. The question is, What is preventing you from seeking miracles in your life? The truth is, God wants to do a mighty miracle in you even now.

February 11, 2023. Series, "Discipleship 101." Sermon Title: "Making of Miracles."

This month we are studying the Discipleship process in its 4 phases. This series, "Discipleship 101" we will discuss how Jesus and the disciples each play a role in the disciples continual growth which is also how we grow. It is outlined in what Jesus does and what we do from the perspective of Jesus. 1.) I do, you watch. 2.) I do, you help. 3.) you do, I help. 4.) You do, I watch.<br />Today we are looking at the Sabbath as it relates to discipleship. Jesus is discussing with the Pharisees the role of the sabbath as it relates to how we ought to celebrate it after he 'breaks' some of their jewish but not biblical laws. Jesus reminds us the Sabbath is a time to take our eyes off our cares and place them onto God's which not only includes our needs but also our families, communities, and nature in bringing oneness against the rat race of life.

February 4, 2023. Series "Discipleship 101." Sermon Title: "The Rest of the Sabbath Story."

As followers of Jesus we all have places and spaces where we grow tired of following Jesus' method of discipleship. Yet, if we allow ourselves to stop growing through this process of giving and begin taking, we actually end up preventing God from blessing us through this channel He created for us to receive His blessing to share with others. Where do you experience fatigue in giving more than receiving? Allowing Jesus to lead us in giving from a place of a stable trust with Him allows God to fill us back up with blessings we didn’t realize we needed so we can keep living a life of service He’s called us to live.

Orange SDA Church Service 1-21-2023

Relationships is what this generation is all about. The relationships we cultivate are what many of us call, "family." The bible is no stranger to calling non-biological connections, "family" either. In fact, it does it on a more powerful scale. Rather than simply choosing who we consider 'family' or not, the criteria is quite different for the follower of Jesus. What is the criteria for being 'family' as a Christian? It's thicker than blood, and it has to do with the blood of Jesus.

January 14, 2022 Series "Unexpected Discipleship." Sermon "A Thicker Blood."

When God calls us to follow Him, we know we are giving up the values and ways of the world for a new kingdom perspective and identity. Yet, at times we are still caught off guard and need the reminder that we are not trailblazing, but following Jesus. Meaning, we are experiencing difficulties he has already encountered and need to trust His leading. It is in those unexpected discipleship moments that we turn to parts in scripture that boggle us but find that even Jesus is with us and shows us that even the unexpected experiences of discipleship are our biggest blessing in showing Jesus to those around us. Today we look at Joseph in Egypt.

January 7, 2022 Series "Unexpected Discipleship." Sermon "Joseph and Dreams."

The Advent of Jesus was filled with heavenly voices singing the praise of their King. Today we pause our usual worship service to sing and reflect on the coming of Jesus. We realize Jesus is still preparing a place for us in heaven as the Father is home alone without us; his adopted children. One day, we will no longer be far or away from our father. One day we will be home.

Dec 24, 2022. Series "Good News:Jesus Loves the World."Music Program&Sermonette "Home Alone No More"

The Good News often gets sidetracked from unexpected news. Things that pull us away from believing that God still provides for us in different ways. What is that for you? What is distracting you from the Savior? When we hold onto God’s Word in our lives we can’t get sidetracked by our limitations and fears because we receive new life into our lives and give hope to those around us by experiencing God’s Power through His promises in faith.

December 10, 2022. Series "Good News: Jesus loves the World." Sermon "The Have Knots."

When we think of the gospel, we often forget the actual gift in the person of Jesus. The gospels meaning of good news is that it offers life both today and for eternity in the person of Jesus. Jesus sacrifice opens the door to both this life and the next. In this series we talk about what that actually means both in this life and the next. You will see that this really is "Good News."

December 3, 2022: Series"Good News: Jesus loves the world." Sermon "Darkest Gloom to brightest joy."

The Goodness of God is something to experience. Sure we can learn about it in church, at home, and even in private school education, but the real experience of God is when we actually practice what He calls us to in living for Him. When we allow Jesus to remove the covetous cravings from our life and replace them with his saving grace it is then that we are able to experience His acceptance and give from a place of love.

November 26, 2022. Series "Agatha of God:All the time God's good." Sermon "Experience of Salvation."
