^{We find an example in Joseph's story - a man faithful to the law, who surrendered the plan he thought was right in his own eyes and chose to open the door to God's plan.}

Our new series, Witness His Majesty, begins with today's message. 

"For nothing will be impossible with God." Luke 1:37 NRSV

"Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

"So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise." Ephesians 5:15 NLT

"Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophet’s own understanding, or from human initiative. No, those prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit, and they spoke from God."

2 Peter 1:20-21 NLT

"But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh." Galatians 5:16 NASB

From Romans 8:1-17, we learn there is only one way to gain freedom from sin and its fatal consequences, and it is not by our own efforts.

"So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death."

Romans 8:1-2 NLT

Today's message comes from Titus 3:4-6 and Ephesians 1:13-14. This begins a series of messages on the Holy Spirit's work, an extension of our last series from the book of Acts.

"While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”

Acts 13:2 NIV

Pastor Dustin shares the message this week from Acts 12:1-24.
