God Worketh Everything To The Good

There is no one on this earth who has never experienced hardships before. We’ve all experienced pain and suffering, often left wondering “Why?” in the end. We’re told everything happens for a reason, as a way to comfort our hearts, but is that true? What does the Bible tell us? How Does God Work? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he encourages our hearts with the faithful love of God in his message, God Worketh Everything To The Good.

How Does God Work?

God Worketh Everything To The Good

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Romans 8:26-28

44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

Matthew 5:44-45

Spiritual Blindness

The LORD told Isaiah that He would cause the people of Israel to hear but not understand, to see but not perceive. If God is good, why would He cause them to not be able to understand in their hearts so that they would not be healed? Why would God cause His own people to not understand Him or His ways if He is a good and just God?

How Will You Spend Eternity?

9 And he said, “Go, and say to this people: ‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’ 10 Make the heart of this people dull, and their ears heavy, and blind their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”

Isaiah 6:9-10

21 Hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who have eyes, but see not, who have ears, but hear not. 22 Do you not fear me? declares the Lord. Do you not tremble before me? I placed the sand as the boundary for the sea, a perpetual barrier that it cannot pass; though the waves toss, they cannot prevail; though they roar, they cannot pass over it.

Jeremiah 5:21-22

Standing On Eternity’s Doorstep

Each day we wake up with breath in our lungs is a gift from God. How we spend each day will determine how we will spend eternity. Our actions directly dictate our future. Many believe that they’ll have the time and put off salvation, but the Scriptures tell us that tomorrow is promised to no one. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to how close eternity is to each and every one of us in his message, Standing On Eternity’s Doorstep.

27 And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment,

15 The leech has two daughters: Give and Give. Three things are never satisfied; four never say, “Enough”: 16 Sheol, the barren womb, the land never satisfied with water, and the fire that never says, “Enough.”

An Acceptable Kind of Love

Three of the most overused words in our culture today are “I love you,” not because the words aren’t necessary, but because they no longer hold any meaning. We don’t know what love is, not true love. We don’t even know how to define love, nor can we identify it when we see it. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the true definition of love in his Valentine’s Day message, An Acceptable Kind of Love.

Eternity Crashing In

Throughout the book of Ecclesiastes, there is a recurring theme, “all is vanity.” This theme, on the surface, seems very discouraging. It makes it sound as if life is pointless and that we live without meaning, but is that what King Solomon meant? Could it not have a deeper meaning? Maybe one about eternity? Are you ready for eternity? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the true meaning of this statement in his message, Eternity Crashing In.

Eternity Crashing In

Are You Ready For Eternity?

1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.2 Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity. 3 What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun?

Ecclesiastes 1:1-3

9 What gain has the worker from his toil? 10 I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. 12 I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; 13 also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God’s gift to man.

Ecclesiastes 3:9-13

Bags With Holes

So many of us struggle to make time for God. God is usually a last priority. Work, school, family, entertainment, socialization, etc., all take priority over God in the majority of Christians’ lives. Many cling to this statement, “God just wants me to be happy,” but is that true? Is this life just about our carnal happiness, or is there a deeper meaning to our lives? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the importance of building the Temple of God in his message, Bags With Holes.

The Dangers of Not Building His House

3 Then the word of the Lord came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, 4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins? 5 Now, therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider your ways. 6 You have sown much, and harvested little. You eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm. And he who earns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.”

Haggai 1:3-6

When Life Happens Pt. 2: Life’s Railroad Tracks

In life, we all have ups and downs. Life is filled with both good and bad. There’s no way to avoid the bad; it comes with the good. Most people will define this as life having hills and valleys. In other words, you’re either in the good or in the bad, but is this what God says? What does the Bible say about life? Join Rev. Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to life’s work in his message, When Life Happens Pt. 2: Life’s Railroad Tracks.

Life’s Railroad Tracks

16 For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? 17 And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

Hebrews 3:16-19

When Life Happens Pt. 1: Welcome To The Crucible

Each and every Christian on earth has some form of trial. Each one of us is tested, but why? Are we tested and facing trials because we’ve made mistakes, or are these God-ordained?

Welcome To The Crucible

7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our bodies.

In The Beginning

One thing we all agree on is, “in the beginning,” after this phrase, we begin to go our separate ways. Some believe that God created Heaven and Earth. Some believe that there was an ancient war that destroyed and corrupted the earth before God created light. While others believe that God created nothing and we evolved from apes. Now, even though each of these realms of thought is different, they have one thing in common: they all believe in a beginning. Therefore, there has to be something special about the beginning that not even the Devil can erase. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the original model God had for our lives in his message, In The Beginning.

The Days of Sorrow

There are many days to come that are prophesied throughout Scripture. Days of tribulation and days of rejoicing. Days of oppression and days of freedom, but many people believe that there are only good days to come for the Church because we’ve already been redeemed. But is that true? Do we, the Church, get to escape the coming woes on the earth because of our salvation? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he prepares us for the coming perilous times in his message, The Days of Sorrow.
