Make your church grow: some assembly required.
From 1 Corinthians 3:9: “For we are God’s coworkers, working together; you are God’s field, God’s building.”

Make your church grow: some assembly required.
From 1 Corinthians 3:9: “For we are God’s coworkers, working together; you are God’s field, God’s building.”
From Micah 6:1-2: “Hear what the Lord says: Rise, plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice. Hear, you mountains, the case of the Lord, and you enduring foundations of the earth, for the Lord has a case against His people, and He will contend with Israel.”

Speaking to His wayward flock
God issues new covenant
Echoing across valleys
Scaling each lofty mountain
Hearing God’s divine message
Called, accepting His challenge
Following with trust, grace speaks
Stepping from darkness to light
Watching from heaven above
God’s righteousness brings justice
Sowing seeds of repentance
Turning man away from sin
Praying for God’s forgiveness
His Rock, man shall climb in faith
Seeing empty tomb’s mercy
Walking every day with Christ

From Micah 6:8: “He has told you, O mortal, what is good, and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God?”

When we view life from God’s perspective, every hardship becomes an opportunity to trust His good purpose, fully depend on Him, and respond in a manner that glorifies and exalts Christ.
From Philippians 1:27-28: “Only, live your life in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that, whether I come and see you or am absent and hear about you, I will know that you are standing firm in one spirit, striving side by side with one mind for the faith of the gospel and in no way frightened by those opposing you. For them, this is evidence of their destruction but of your salvation. And this is God’s doing.”

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
I don’t run away from a challenge because I am afraid. Instead, I run toward it because the only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your feet.
