God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

We are wired by God to be angry and be jealous and yes, to boast - some of us more than others! From little kids to senior citizens, everybody is boasting. Some of it is vain-glory and some of it is noble. Yet legitimate boasting in God's eyes is the boasting that exalts the grace of God and what He has accomplished in our lives. We are created to be mirrors that reflect His image. When the world sees God's work in us, He receives great glory. And when our boasting is of this nature, the heart is right and our boasting will actually lead in us to greater humility.

There is a foundation for all of God’s commands – His good character. For example: Why do we tell the truth? Because Jesus is the truth (Jn. 14:6) and Satan is the father of lies (Jn. 8:44). Why is marriage between one man and one woman? Because God created marriage to reflect and promote His marriage between Christ and His bride (the church) – (Eph. 5:32). The Christian life is not about keeping “outdated and arbitrary rules” (as portrayed by society). It’s not about “following my religion.” It’s about following a Person. We follow that Person by acting like Him. The commands in the Bible tell us how to act like God, as opposed to acting like those who oppose Him.

A Message from our Provider:

“When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God. #Henry Blackaby”
