Christmas: the Whole Story Week 1: “Promise in the Silence”
<p><strong>Christmas: the Whole Story</strong></p> <p><strong>Week 1:</strong> “<strong>Promise in the Silence</strong>”</p> <p><strong>POINT #1 – TRUST IN THE DARK WHAT YOU KNOW TO BE TRUE IN THE LIGHT</strong></p> <p>“The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine.” (<strong>Isaiah 9:2</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p>“For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (<strong>Isaiah 9:6</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>POINT #2 – GOD IS WORKING TO TURN HEARTS</strong></p> <p>““Look, I am sending you the prophet Elijah before the great and dreadful day of the LORD arrives. His preaching will turn the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers. Otherwise I will come and strike the land with a curse.”” (<strong>Malachi 4:5-6</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>POINT #3 – GOD’S PROMISES ARRIVE IN PERFECT TIME</strong></p> <p>“When Herod was king of Judea, there was a Jewish priest named Zechariah. He was a member of the priestly order of Abijah, and his wife, Elizabeth, was also from the priestly line of Aaron. Zechariah and Elizabeth were righteous in God’s eyes, careful to obey all of the Lord’s commandments and regulations. They had no children because Elizabeth was unable to conceive, and they were both very old. One day Zechariah was serving God in the Temple, for his order was on duty that week. As was the custom of the priests, he was chosen by lot to enter the sanctuary of the Lord and burn incense. While the incense was being burned, a great crowd stood outside, praying. While Zechariah was in the sanctuary, an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing to the right of the incense altar. Zechariah was shaken and overwhelmed with fear when he saw him. But the angel said, “Don’t be afraid, Zechariah! God has heard your prayer. Your wife, Elizabeth, will give you a son, and you are to name him John. You will have great joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth, for he will be great in the eyes of the Lord. He must never touch wine or other alcoholic drinks. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before his birth.” (<strong>Luke 1:5-15</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p>“When it was time for Elizabeth’s baby to be born, she gave birth to a son. And when her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had been very merciful to her, everyone rejoiced with her. When the baby was eight days old, they all came for the circumcision ceremony. They wanted to name him Zechariah, after his father. But Elizabeth said, “No! His name is John!”” (<strong>Luke 1:57-60</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>Think About It.</strong></p> <ol> <li>Why do you think the 400 years of prophetic silence between Malachi and John the Baptist was necessary for God’s plan?</li> <li>In what ways does waiting on God strengthen our faith and reliance on Him?</li> <li>How can we discern what God is preparing in our lives, even when it feels like nothing is happening?</li> <li>How can we actively participate in God’s work of “turning hearts” in our families, friendships, or communities this Christmas season?</li> </ol> <p>For more information about Middle River Assembly of God visit <a href="https://middleriverag.org/" rel="nofollow">https://middleriverag.org/</a></p> <p>To help support the mission of Middle River Assembly of God, please go to our new giving platform</p> <p><a href="https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442" rel="nofollow">https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442</a></p> <p>CCLI Copyright License # 1013363</p> <p>CCLI Streaming License # 20006236</p> <p>Thank you for your support.</p> <p>Middle River Assembly of God</p> <p>9620 Bird River Rd.

"The Power of a Grateful Heart"
<p><strong>"The Power of a Grateful Heart"</strong></p> <p><strong>1. Gratitude Is a Command, Not a Suggestion</strong></p> <p>"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 (NLT)</p> <p><strong>2. Gratitude Shifts Our Perspective</strong></p> <p>"Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT)</p> <p><strong>3. Gratitude Unlocks God's Power</strong></p> <p>"One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, ‘Praise God!’ He fell to the ground at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, ‘Didn’t I heal ten men? Where are the other nine? Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?’ And Jesus said to the man, ‘Stand up and go. Your faith has healed you.’” Luke 17:15-19 (NLT):</p> <p><strong>4. Gratitude Is a Gateway to Worship</strong></p> <p>"Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise his name.” Psalm 100:4 (NLT)</p> <p><strong>Think About It.</strong></p> <ol> <li>What’s one thing you’re thankful for today?</li> <li>How does gratitude change your outlook during tough times?</li> <li>When did you last thank God for answered prayers?</li> <li>How can gratitude improve your relationships?</li> <li>How does being thankful draw you closer to God?</li> </ol> <p>For more information about Middle River Assembly of God visit <a href="https://middleriverag.org/" rel="nofollow">https://middleriverag.org/</a></p> <p>To help support the mission of Middle River Assembly of God, please go to our new giving platform</p> <p><a href="https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442" rel="nofollow">https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442</a></p> <p>CCLI Copyright License # 1013363</p> <p>CCLI Streaming License # 20006236</p> <p>Thank you for your support.</p> <p>Middle River Assembly of God</p> <p>9620 Bird River Rd.

Tightrope - Balancing Grace and Truth in 1 Corinthians Week 4: “Already, But Not Yet”
<p>Tightrope - Balancing Grace and Truth in 1 Corinthians</p> <p><strong>Week 4: “Already, But Not Yet”</strong></p> <p><strong>I. The Foundation of Our Faith: The Resurrection</strong></p> <p>“But tell me this—since we preach that Christ rose from the dead, why are some of you saying there will be no resurrection of the dead? For if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised either. And if Christ has not been raised, then all our preaching is useless, and your faith is useless. And we apostles would all be lying about God—for we have said that God raised Christ from the grave. But that can’t be true if there is no resurrection of the dead. And if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith is useless and you are still guilty of your sins. In that case, all who have died believing in Christ are lost! And if our hope in Christ is only for this life, we are more to be pitied than anyone in the world.” (<strong>1 Corinthians 15:12-19</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>II. The Tightrope Between Adam and Jesus: Death and Life</strong></p> <p>“But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. So you see, just as death came into the world through a man, now the resurrection from the dead has begun through another man. Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life.” (<strong>1 Corinthians 15:20-22</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>III. The Hope That Transforms Today</strong></p> <p>“But let me reveal to you a wonderful secret. We will not all die, but we will all be transformed! It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (<strong>1 Corinthians 15:51-57</strong>**, NLT**)</p> <p><strong>Think About It.</strong></p> <ol> <li>What does living in the tension of “already, but not yet” mean to you?</li> <li>How does Jesus’ resurrection as the “firstfruits” impact your view of current struggles?</li> <li>How can you walk “from victory” in moments of temptation or guilt?</li> <li>How can our church better support each other in this tension?</li> <li>Which practical step (Scripture, prayer, generosity, community) will you focus on this week and why?</li> </ol> <p>For more information about Middle River Assembly of God visit <a href="https://middleriverag.org/" rel="nofollow">https://middleriverag.org/</a></p> <p>To help support the mission of Middle River Assembly of God, please go to our new giving platform</p> <p><a href="https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442" rel="nofollow">https://tithe.ly/give?c=4877442</a></p> <p>CCLI Copyright License # 1013363</p> <p>CCLI Streaming License # 20006236</p> <p>Thank you for your support.</p> <p>Middle River Assembly of God</p> <p>9620 Bird River Rd.
