Wednesday Night Service

Wednesday January 28, 2015
Brother Dennis Nobles opened the Wednesday service by asking if anyone in attendance had a testimony. And to our amazement there were many positive testimonies. They were so positive and so full of the Power of God that there is no doubt that he is moving in all of the lives at the Lighthouse Revival Center. As our brother pointed out it seems that we look over so many things that we should be grateful for and we are not, we are not giving God the credit he deserves. Brother Dennis preached the word out of Mark chapter 11 verses 12 through 14.
Mark chapter 11 verse 13 states, “And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.”
So when Jesus was looking at this fig tree afar off, it looked like it had bared fruit for him to eat. The leaves were bloomed and they were pretty. From a distance the tree was inviting Jesus to come and eat of the fruit that it barred. However, when he got close up on that fig tree, it had nothing to suffice his hunger, it had nothing that it promised him it had. Now if you think about it, many of the people that say they serve Christ is the very same thing as that fig tree. They look pretty and they are inviting, but when you get to digging into who they are and what they are teaching people they are just as empty as the one they are trying to teach. That fig tree was a hypocrite, and there are many people that go to church to serve God sitting in his pews and being a hypocrite all at the same time. There are many of us that look like something that we are not. Looks will fool you; we are to walk by faith not by sight. We are not to judge someone by how they look, and we are not judge to people at all, when you are talking to people about God look inside them, asks God to see inside their hearts and ask God to lay his word on your heart. It is not about us and it is not about the person that we are talking to it is about who we serve and doing his will in our lives. As children of God we are not to be like that fig tree, we are not to be pretty on the outside and empty on the inside. If your decision is to serve God then you need to produce fruit in the name of Jesus Christ. Be that limb that is going to produce the fruit to feed who God wants you to feed. In John chapter 15 verses 1 through 2 it states, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.” So we need to be the limb that bears the fruit of Jesus Christ and allow God to keep us right so that we can produce more fruit. We are to be fishers of men and we need to start catching more fish in the name of Jesus Christ and let God clean the fish we catch.

Sunday Night Service

Sunday February 1, 2015
For the Sunday night service Brother James started out by giving a powerful testimony and it continued like that for the rest of the service. Everyone in attendance had the opportunity to give their testimony and share the great things that God has done and is doing in each and everyone of our lives. It is advisable that if you are missing out that it is a huge loss, because when Brother Dennis does things like this it is for a reason, it just has not been revealed yet. If you are not there and if you are not attending the services it is not the people that you are missing out on, it is the presence of God there at that moment and every other moment in all of our lives. The testimonies are increasing in number and size. Please don’t miss out on what is next. God is not done!!!!!

Sunday Morning Service
Sunday February 1, 2015
Last Sunday Brother Dennis mentioned that we were going to start learning the word of God and he did just that as he had said. Brother Dennis is apparently making it known that he is not there to just preach the word but to teach the word as well. We should all have known that to begin with, if we are not attending God’s house to learn his word then why are we going? Brother Dennis was teaching and preaching out of the book of Luke chapter 15 verses 11 through 17.
The word was about how we should not be like the prodigal son that Luke speaks of, we are not put ourselves in a position where we have to be thrown into a hog pen with nobody to come and save us. The prodigal son asked for everything that his father had to give him and then left and when he left he had nothing left of that which was given to him. Now if we as children of God leave God’s house before it is our time then we are no different than the prodigal son. This is because if you leave and have not had the foundation of Jesus Christ lain properly then your foundation will not stand. The foundation of Jesus Christ is the only foundation that will last an eternity. And if you do leave the house of God before your foundation of Christ is finished being laid, you will not be able to come back to the house of God until you come back to yourself. The prodigal son had to come back to himself when he left his father’s house before he could return, and the same is for us if we leave our father’s house before our time has come to leave. We need to realize that we will not be able to help anyone if we have not yet helped ourselves. And if you leave his house to early then you have not helped yourself you have only hurt yourself.
Luke chapter 15 verse 15 states, “And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him in to his fields to feed swine.” As children of God we need to be careful who we join ourselves with or we might find ourselves joined to the wrong person that will want to kill and destroy us. If we are not careful we find that we have joined our self with the enemy and if we allow that it will be harder to return to where you should have never left. We need to be careful who we join ourselves to, and be careful what we allow come out of our mouths, and we need to be careful who we share it with. Not everything God says to us is to be shared with others. We need to let some things stay between us and God. If God wants you to share it and you are a genuine child of God then you should know what he wants you share and when.
We need to get rid of our pride before it destroys us and stay in our Father’s house. We need to resist Satan and submit ourselves to Jesus Christ and then and only then will Satan flee in his name. We need to remember that God is not in the business of killing and stealing lives, he is in the business of saving lives and we are supposed to be the willing vessels for him to do his work. It is not us that do the work, but what a privilege it is to be that willing vessel and get to see and experience the wonderful miracles that God will allow us to be a part of. There should be no greater honor in each and every one of our lives than to witness the work of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost up close and personal. For it states in John chapter 3 verse 16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

For God gave his only begotten son to die for each of us. Be grateful for salvation.

Give thanks for your life
