120129 Let There Be Light-The Guiding Light-Pastor Raasch

The word love is used for everything. Do we really love ice cream the way we love people? God tells us about His love, but He also shows us His love. How has God’s action of love brought you comfort and peace? When has His love shown you your value in His eyes? Often we feel like we can’t be loved. Our actions or thoughts make us think we are unlovable. What is in your life that makes you feel unlovable? Who are you willing to talk to in order to receive the true love that comes from God? Because of God’s love to us we can continue to grow in our love toward Him. How big is your love for the Lord? Do you want it to be bigger? What will help you grow in your relationship with God and when are you willing to add that into your routine of life? It says, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all of your strength”. As you love God this week how will your love continue to grow?

081102 Faith Sees Miracles-Pastor Raasch

Rev. Randy Raasch - November 04, 2008 09:14 :: 312 Views

In the past couple weeks what has appeared to be your biggest problem? How did you respond to it? Did you perceive it as a hindrance or a opportunity? The disciples wanted to send the hungry people away. How do you deal with problems/conflicts? Do you face them head on, take time before addressing it, or avoid the situation all together? Are problems your opportunity or your struggle? Jesus’ always took problems for Him and others and made them opportunities for God’s love & grace to shine. What are the problems you are facing today? How is God involved in them?

Throughout Jesus’ ministry he performed miracles. When or what time in your life have you seen a miracle by God? What problem was the root of the miracle? How will God be able to make your problems today become miracles for tomorrow? For this month start to journal your problems as opportunities and make note where you see God making miracles out of your problems.

081019 Is There Power in Prayer? Pastor Raasch

Rev. Randy Raasch - October 20, 2008 10:18 :: 307 Views

(Matthew 7:7-11)

Why is it hard to add “Thy will be done” to the end of our prayers? How does praying “Thy will be done” assist us in receiving God’s answer to our prayer? Do we really deserve or earn what God gives to us? Does God really depend upon us for anything? The grace of God is the reason our prayers are answered perfectly. How is this a motivation for us to pray? We tend to focus so much on the answer to our prayer. Why is it more important that we focus on the One who answer the prayer rather than the answer?

081012 No Is An Answer Pastor Raasch

Rev. Randy Raasch - October 13, 2008 11:25 :: 301 Views

(2 Samuel 12:1-23)

Why is the answer “No” from God hard to accept? What in your life makes it easier to accept “No” from God? After you pray do you listen for God’s answer? How often are you listening for your will instead of God’s will? After prayer, when have you seen God’s grace being sufficient in your life? How does living under God’s grace, and seeking His will help you grow in your faith? Set aside time each day this week to pray about these things:

• The mission of First Immanuel

• Guidance and Wisdom for our nation’s leaders

• Your relationship with God

• In your community, to build relationships with people who don’t have a relationship with God.

081005 Why Pray? Pastor Raasch

Rev. Randy Raasch - October 06, 2008 10:04 :: 315 Views

(Matthew 6:9-13)

Reflect on a time when an answer to your prayer was obvious? Did God answer you exactly what you prayed for? Do you think God’s hand was evident in the answer? On a scale of 1-5, with 1 being weak and 5 being strong, where is your prayer life? What keeps your prayer life from being deeper? Given that we often turn to the Lord in times of trouble, how easy is it to pray for God’s will to be done rather than yours? How can you be more conscious about praying for God’s will? Set aside time each day this week to pray about these things:

• Persecuted Christians around the world

• Guidance and Wisdom for our nation’s leaders

• The mission of First Immanuel

• For God to help you in your prayer life throughout this month
