A strong tactic of satan is self-centeredness, this tactic is used most often when we fail; whether actual or perceived. As Peter, we start following afar off, and at that point the devil's tactic is to get us to move farther away from God's pr
The world's view of failure contrasted with God’s view. Jesus does not publicly humiliate, He does not berate, He just reconciles. VF-1773 John 18:15-18 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from F
Pastor Scott's 400th Message: Before the message, VF-166 "Peter's Failure and Restoration" is referenced. Then, after reading an excerpt from John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" and an overview of Peter's failures throughout the scriptures, all
Failure is part of every Christian’s journey, but if we keep our focus on the Lord He will use it to refine our love for Him. VF-1949 John 21:15-19 Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale. Call 1-800-338-3030 24x7 to leave a
For the children of Israel, God promised to always keep His eyes upon the Promised Land. For us this promise is personal, reminding us that no matter where we are, no matter what our failures, God cares for us and His eyes are always upon us. V
Satan desired to sift not just Peter, but all the disciples. We are not immune to the same sifting and falling away. When we fail what matters most is getting back up in faith and encouraging others who might experience the same failure. VF-2
God’s provision of grace is throughout the Bible even during the times of His wrath. In the last days of judgment on earth, He will again show his grace by providing a place of refuge for His remnant people of Israel, the 144,000 preachers of
In seeking the truth that is revealed in Jesus Christ, God creates famine to give us opportunities of faith and opportunities of failure. Just like Abram, we often choose to leave the place that God has called us to because we focus on the seen
Failure is part of the trip. Understanding how it can happen, its pitfalls, and having the tools to get back up can help us prepare to use our failures to create growth and change with God. VF-2244 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaS
There are many kinds of failure that can happen in our lives, just as there are many recorded in the Bible. If we dwell on our mistakes and never move on, they can be our downfall; but if we learn from them, look to our God, and trust in His fo
Like Peter, we can become delusional about our relationship with God, thinking that our love and commitment means we cannot fail Him; but we all fail sometimes. What matters to God is what we do when we have failed. Follow Him, return to His
Do not take your salvation for granted and get complacent lest you engage in spiritual pride. It takes vigilance to stay by the stuff. In the Old Testament the children of Israel drifted away repeatedly and much of the church in America today
A lesson from the Apostle Paul, as someone who once rejected Christ, shows us that we should not get puffed up in our calling as gentiles. God’s not done with the Jewish people, and we should not make the mistake of thinking we know who He’s g
The prophet Isaiah foretold of Christ, but he also prophesied that there would be people who would not be able to hear and receive the message. The rejection of Christ by the Jews was part of that prophecy, as well as the grace extended to the
A lot of churches today present the message of “special sinners” or a “special way of salvation” and neither one of those is biblical. None of us are born to desire God, and none of us have “special sins.” We’re all born with a dark heart. W
In the book of Romans, Paul looks to the prophet Isaiah’s declaration about the children of Israel and proclaims that a remnant shall be saved, but not all. He addresses Jews that thought their salvation was automatic. They could not accept th
Why do some Jews still reject Christ? God has the right to choose whom He will save, whom He will show mercy, and whom He will reward. He also has the right to choose whom He will not. Don't assume you know which is which. VF-2427 Romans 9:1
Many of Abraham’s seed believed they didn’t need salvation because they had the covenants, the promises, and the law. Although they were anticipating a Messiah, they rejected Christ and everything He had to say. Paul makes it clear as to “why”
Not all the Jews rejected Christ, but many of the spiritual leaders were against Him because they had no spiritual discernment and they perceived Him as a threat to their position. There were also many people who only followed Jesus for self-s
God has a plan for the future of the land of Israel, when He will reunite the people of the Northern and Southern Kingdoms. But we must also understand the history that shaped Judaism from the time of the exile to the fall of Jerusalem. God
The ugly picture that God paints through the prophecies of Ezekiel helps us to understand just how low the children of Israel, specifically the southern kingdom of Judah, had fallen before they were carried into Babylonian captivity. They also
The practices and identity of the Jewish people began to crystallize after their return from exile in Babylon. They began to strictly enforce the law and to separate themselves from the ways of the foreigners who ruled over them. This period
The Jewish identity and practices of Judaism did not begin to emerge until after the return from Babylonian captivity. Although the priesthood had maintained certain practices and preserved the Hebrew tongue, most of the population had forgott
Every Jew that you encounter today will say that the mother must be Jewish in order for her child to be Jewish, yet there is no scriptural validation for this doctrine. Furthermore, the Biblical genealogies show that God focused on the father,
The idea that all the descendants of Abraham are Jewish is wrong. The Bible says Abraham was the father of many nations, not just one. One of the seeds descending from him were a covenant line, but they were not always obedient to God, and th
