📖Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV) 6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 📘Pastor's Note: Consider this quote from Thomas Brooks: "Ah! How often, Christians, hath God kissed you at the beginning of prayer, and spoken peace to you in the midst of prayer, and filled you with joy and assurance upon the close of prayer!"

📖Philippians 3:12 (ESV) 12 Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. 📘Pastor's Note: Consider this quote from Richard Baxter: "This life was not intended to be the place of our perfection but the preparation for it." 🙏I'm praying for you always. ❤️ Pastor Jamie Read the Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians%203&version=ESV Learn More About Us: www.mygpchurch.com/whoweare #notesfromthepastorsdesk #thegpchurch #Truth #seek #study #serve #mygpchurch Revelation 21:1-3Notes from the Pastor's Desk #notesfromthepastorsdesk
📖Revelation 21:1-3 (ESV) Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. 📘Pastor's Note: Tonight, we are studying the eternal state. At the culmination of all things, when this life is over, those who have graciously been saved by our Lord will spend all eternity with our God in heaven. Can you imagine a time that will last forever, when we are in the presence of our King? A time where there is no more sin, pain, sorrow, or tears. A time when death will be no more because it has been cast into the depths of hell. All that remains is us with our Lord in the place He has prepared for us, worshiping and serving Him in complete joy without the weight of worry or the decay of the world. The word that comes to my mind is excitement. What an exciting reality our faith hopes for—blissful excitement! Are you excited? Though we may experience trials, tribulations, and other difficulties in this life, we have a glorious hope in the One who died for us and rose from the grave, assuring us that when this life ends, eternity begins with Him. So, if you are going through a struggle right now, let this reality of your faith refresh your soul. We have hope! 🙏I'm praying for you always. ❤️ Pastor Jamie Read the Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2021&version=ESV Learn More About Us: www.mygpchurch.com/whoweare #notesfromthepastorsdesk #thegpchurch #Truth #seek #study #serve #mygpchurch James 1:2-4Notes from the Pastor's Desk #notesfromthepastorsdesk
📖James 1:2-4 (ESV) 2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. 📘Pastor's Note: Consider this quote from Thomas Adams: "Patience must not be an inch shorter than affliction." 🙏I'm praying for you always. ❤️ Pastor Jamie Read the Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James%201&version=ESV Learn More About Us: www.mygpchurch.com/whoweare #notesfromthepastorsdesk #thegpchurch #Truth #seek #study #serve #mygpchurch James 2:14-17Notes from the Pastor's Desk #notesfromthepastorsdesk
📖James 2:14-17 (ESV) 14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. 📘Pastor's Note: Consider this quote from George Swinnock: "He that seems righteous towards men, and irreligious towards God, is but an honest heathen; and he that seem religious towards God, and is unrighteousness towards men, is but a dissembling Christian." 🙏I'm praying for you always. ❤️ Pastor Jamie Read the Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=james+2&version=ESV Learn More About Us: www.mygpchurch.com/whoweare #notesfromthepastorsdesk #thegpchurch #Truth #seek #study #serve #mygpchurch Romans 12:12Notes from the Pastor's Desk #notesfromthepastorsdesk
📖Romans 12:12 (ESV) 12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 📘Pastor's Note: Consider this quote by Thomas Adams: "Patience to the soul is bread to the body…we eat bread with all our meats, both for health and relish; bread with flesh, bread with fish, bread with broth and fruits. Such is patience to every virtue; we must hope with patience, and pray in patience, and love with patience, and whatever good thing we do, let it be done in patience." 🙏I'm praying for you always. ❤️ Pastor Jamie Read the Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%2012&version=ESV Learn more about us: www.mygpchurch.com/whoweare #notesfromthepastorsdesk #thegpchurch #Truth #seek #study #serve #mygpchurch |
