On Sunday morning, July 25, 2010, we were privileged to have Billy Huddleston in to preach for us and his text was Luke 22:54-62. This passage of scripture is talking about Peter. Jesus spoke to Peter more than anyone and he was the stone that was chosen by the rock (Jesus). Jesus called out to Peter three times to follow him and if you are going to follow Jesus you have to forsake everything. We see that Peter was a hard working man. He owned a fishing business along with his brother Andrew. He was a passionate man and a devoted man. He was devoted to Jesus and you are the only one who controls how much of Jesus that you want. He was a devastated man. When Jesus was being led away Peter kept his eye on him but then he denied knowing Jesus not once but three times and then he hears the cock crow and he remembers what Jesus had said to him. The very thing that Peter said he would not do he had done and he wept bitterly. Peter was reminded every morning when the rooster would crow what he had done and he was haunted by the roosters crow. He was also reminded that he was in the enemies territory. A rooster crows to mark his territory. The devil will mark his territory in your life if you are not careful. Peter heard the roosters crow every morning but Jesus came to rescue Peter. The long night was over and he would not have to walk in darkness again. Are you bound by the roosters crow? You don't have to be.

On Sunday evening, July 25, 2020, Billy Huddleston preached for us again and his text was Jude 4-12. We are a servant of God and it is His authority and not ours. Sometimes we need to be reminded who we are and that is a child of the King. So many times we live under poverity because we forget who we are. Jesus has a purpose for you and he will preserve you and take care of you. He doesn't want us to sit back and do nothing he wants to live His life through us. When you are a child of the King you have a promise of His mercy from above, peace within and unending love. God's faith is complete and we need to contend for the faith and He will fight for us. If we are not careful unawares will creep into our life unnoticed. They can slip into your church and grow right along with you. They can say that they are a Christian but live ungodly lives. They are individuals who receive light but not life. They have some degree of the written word but they never embrace the living word. It is time to stop looking outwardly and start looking inwardly. How are things between you and God? Ungodly means to make God common. We are not on his level and when you come into his presence you will fall on your face and worship him. Don't take God for granted and lose the wonder of his presence. Why is it the longer we walk with Him the less wonder we see of Him? Don't lose the wonder. One young man accepted the call to preach.

On Wednesday evening, July 28, 2010, John Robbins preached. His text was Psalm 39:1-4 and he preached on the subject of "How is your heart?" Revelations 3:14-15 tells us that if our heart is lukewarm that God will spue us out of His mouth. So the question is asked, how is your heart? We need to search our heart and see where we are at with God. You are the only one, besides God, who knows your heart. Are you really on fire for God or are you ashamed of God? God said that if we are ashamed of Him then He will be ashamed of us. God will tell us what we need to get rid of in our life and what we need to add. It is as simple as subtracting and adding. We also need to make sure that we have love in our heart. We need to love everyone and make sure that we tell them about God. The word of God is still alive today. Do you think that God has changed? He is the same yesterday, today and forever. God needs men and women to stand up for the truth of God. So the questioned is asked again, how is your heart? You either have a hot heart or a lukewarm heart. If you are lukewarm God does not like it because you cannot be around God unless you have a hot heart.
