God doesn't give up on us. Don't give up
on God.

Value God's voice
Value God's voice above all. We want God
to turn up His voice, but He's wanting us to turn down our lives.

Every verse of Scripture
Every verse of
Scripture speaks God's voice. His Word is His voice.

A surrender heart
A surrender heart is
fertile ground to hear the voice of God (John 10:3-5).
Dino Rizzo
Does God Speak to Children?
God will speak to a
child even when he doesn't recognize it (1 Samuel 3: 1-11,15).

Real Maturity
Real maturity can't happen by
ourselves. Maturity comes when we stop making excuses and start making
changes.
Chris Hodges
Humility and Pride
Humble people look for
needs. Prideful people need people to look at them.
Rick Bezet
Meaningful LIfe
Prioritizing ourselves
brings no long term satisfaction. Prioritizing others is the key to a
meaningful life.
Allen Pedram
Maturity
Personal maturity
starts by seeing beyond ourselves, but spiritual maturity begins by putting
others before ourselves.
Allen Pedram
Right Thinking
The more that you reaffirm who you are in Christ. The
more your behavior will begin to reflect your true identity.
Tom Mullins
Be Attractive
Speak encouraging words to each other. Your words will either draw or repel.

Pain = Purpose
Your pain is speaking purpose to others. Your pain is not
wasted.

Sovereignty

Conversion
Conversion is turning on the right road, and
the next thing to do is to walk on it.
Hamp Greene, Church of the Highlands
Truth
We will only believe Satan's
lies to the extent that we don't know God's truth.
Replace Satan's lies with
God's truth found in the Word of God, the Bible.
Hamp Greene, Church of the Highlands
God's Word
God’s Word is alive and you can sense God's presence as your read it (Hebrews
4:12).
Hamp Greene, Church of the Highlands

Worship
Worship is not how you feel. It's about God's worth. It's you
telling God has important He is to you.

Easter
Jesus didn't come to make bad people good. He
came to make dead people alive.

Grace
Grace will meet you where you are, but it will
never leave you where it found you.

Purpose
The three most important days of your life is the day that you were born. The day that you were born again, and the day that you realize what you were born to do.

I would never ever vote against you and God.
The devil is deathly
scared of you walking in who you are in Christ.
You
and God were made to win.
Preston Morrison, Gateway
Church
Romans 10:13 (NIV)
The devil is a liar, and there is no truth in Him.
Taking Godly risks
becomes a thrill because we know that God is near.
When the devil calls you a failure, a loser,
a liar, or alone, He's the one that lying!
Preston Morrison, Gateway
Church
Failure is no big deal.
If
you have that fear, get that fear off of you! If you fail, your Father,
God, is there to catch you.
Preston Morrison, Gateway
Church
Am I a failure
You're going to have to
fail a lot to get where God wants you to be. It's like missing a shot in
basketball.
Missing a lot of shots
means that you're taking a lot of shots.
Preston Morrison, Gateway
Church
What thoughts should I be thinking
You see the lie by
comparing your thoughts to God's Word in regards to the lie.
Everything that the
devil says is a lie. There are three areas of the devil's lies.
It's about...
A. Self- your identity.
B. God- who He is.
C. Others- your
relationship with others breeding disunity.
Hamp Greene, Church of the Highlands
What are you thinking about?
Have you ever thought about what you are
thinking about?
Many of us have a
negative dialogue with ourselves. We let any negative
thought drive on the highways of our minds.
Every time you think a
thought. It creates a pathway. Every time you think
about it. It becomes deeper. Every time you think a
thought. It's harder to think
something else.
Your life will always
go in the pattern of your strongest thoughts. If you think you can't,
you won't. We've got to renew our
minds. We have the power to
change everyone of our thoughts.
We make a
habit. Then, the habit makes
us. You see the lie by comparing your thoughts to God's Word in regards to
the lie.
We have the power to
change everyone of our thoughts. You will be set free to
the degree that you renew your mind to God's Word.
Hamp Greene, Church of the Highlands
What is the greatest deterrent to generosity?
The greatest deterrent to radical generosity is the illusion that earth is our home.
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
Worship is a glorious exchange.
God becomes bigger, and our problems become smaller.
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
Why can't I hear God?
Busyness prevents us
from hearing God. The quieter you become. The more you can hear
God's voice. To hear God's voice, you have to turn down the world's
volume.
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
What does Jesus love to talk to you about?
90% of what Jesus is interested in you praying about. It's about reaching the lost.
Luke 19:10(ESV)
10 For the Son of Man (Jesus) came to seek and to save the
lost.”

How much power does Satan have?
The
devil has power (as much as you will give him).
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
How should I memorize Scripture?
Find a Bible verse to claim for
every situation (and temptation).

How can I escape ungodly habits?
God asks you to
become accountable to someone. Ask someone you really trust to hold you accountable to them for your addictions. That's
why we have small groups of people who love you and Jesus.

Ecclesiastes
4:9-10 (ESV)
9 Two
are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. 10 For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is
alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!
Chris Hodges, Church of the
Highlands
Is my New Year already Old?
Don't do this year your way, but
God's way. God is a lot closer than you might think, and it's easier than
you think. God is not far from you, but near.
James 4:8 (ESV)
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
Don't be stuck in the same place. Take this time seriously.
Chris Hodges, Church of the
Highlands
How can I find my way?
How can I find the best version
of myself?
Chris Hodges, Church of the Highlands
Matthew 7:24 (ESV)
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine (Jesus) and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
Is it too late for me?
I can’t go back and change the
beginning, but I can start where I am
and change the end. I can’t start the next chapter of my life if I keep re-reading the
last one. If we want something that we've
never had, we've got to do something that we've never done. If you have breath, it's not too late. Would you consider inviting Jesus Christ into your life as it's focus right now?
2 Corinthians 5:17 (ESV)
Chris Hodges, Church of the
Highlands
Who does God Use?
God does not use perfect people,
but imperfect people to fulfill His perfect will.
James Robinson, guest speaking at Gateway Church
What can you give God that He doesn't already have?
The only thing that God does not have is your sin. He wants is your sin.
1 John 1:9 (ESV)
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and
just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Chris Hodges, Church of
the Highlands.
Do you have faith to believe that God knows what He is doing?
Are you comfortable
wearing the faith that God has called you to wear?
Jeremy Foster, Hope
City Church
Can God trust you with trouble?
It's the trouble that defines you. Nothing great is ever
easy. God takes you through tough times to show you things that are in you that
you didn't know were there.
Jeremy Foster, Hope
City Church
Why should I trust God?
It's dangerous not to
trust God. The people of Israel longed for slavery again.
They took a 11 day
journey, and made it into a 40 year way of life. (Deuteronomy 1:2)
Jeremy Foster, Hope
City Church
God, what is my destiny?
With God, there is a
destination to your destiny. Prepare to go beyond where you are. Say goodbye to what God
has done. Say hello to what God is about to do.
Jeremy Foster, Hope City Church
Where is God?
God is not hiding from
you, but He is waiting for you.
Jeremy Foster, Hope
City Church
Why should I release my pain?
Don't do the time for someone else's crime. Forgiveness is setting the prisoner free, and the prisoner is you. Don't be held captive by the pain caused by others.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
How to see Sin for what it really is.
Sin (destructive habits) promises happiness,
but will rip joy from your life. Sin is pleasurable, but when we
pray. We pull the curtain back and see sin for what it really is.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
Why should I resist Satan's tempting?
Satan is a
liar. He makes promises that he'll never keep. He promises freedom,
but puts you into bondage.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
God, where am I weak?
Temptation is customized for your
weakness. If you don't know where you are weak, you can't prepare for the
devil's attacks. Ask God. Where am I weak, and how can I overcome them?
Mike Haman, Healing Place Church
Mike Haman, Healing Place Church
Why should we insist on God's will being done in our lives?
There is something
greater than our own agenda. It is the agenda of the King because we lack
perspective.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
How do I obtain God's Favor?
Start doing what God is
blessing. Get in the flow of God's favor. We must not want what we
want then convince ourselves that God wants it to.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
How Does Deception Harm Us?
We think that we are in
bondage to addictions and other harmful habits (sin); however, it is a lie created by Satan in our minds. The truth
is that if we have surrendered our lives to Christ we are free from the bondage to sin.
Mike Haman, Healing
Place Church
How does Satan attempt to harm us?
Deception is his
strategy. A lie is his tool. He creates a stronghold by deception to put us in
bondage to a harmful habit. Something that is not true appears true.
Mike Haman, Healing Place Church
Why do people hurt me?
Hurting people hurt
people, and we must see them through that lens.
When people hurt us,
let's forgive them, love them, and pray for them.
Let's see it at an
opportunity to pray for them to be released from the devil's evil influence.
Why would someone despair?
Despair is to remember
the bad in the past by reliving it in the present and complaining to God about
it.
Chris Hodges, Church of
the Highlands.
How can I rejoice?
Rejoice is to remember
what God has done in the past by reliving it in the present and praising God
for it.
Chris Hodges, Church of
the Highlands.
How to Escape Despair
If you choose joy in despair, it delivers you
from it. Don't wait on joy to find you. You choose to have joy as an
act of obedience to God's Word, the Bible (Philippians 4:4).
Chris Hodges, Church of
the Highlands.
How is Satan Attempting Destroy Us?
Satan is attempting to destroy us by preventing us from hearing God's voice through the use of distractions as we read the Bible or hear it taught.
Layne Schrantz, Church of the Highlands
What is Worship?
God created us to
worship. We've got to be set free from holding back. Worship means
to lay prostate and kiss. The
word picture is of a man petting an obedient dog while the dog licks him. We need to greet God like our dog greets us.

Does God Need Our Worship
God doesn't need our
worship. Why then would He seek it? It's for us not Him. The
result of our worship of Him is joy.

worshipers who are not concerned about what other people think.

Why Read the Bible?
Keep God's book, the
Bible, close by. God speaks just like He writes.
Mike Haman, Healing Place Church
Why Pray?
When you pray, things
happen. When we pray, we have the power of heaven and earth at our
disposal.
