God is in This Place

Jacob woke up after seeing the ladder with angels ascending and descending and said, “God is in this place and I knew it not.” So often we as believers don’t realize or remember that “God is in this place” (in us). Essentially we “know it not.”

Why is this so often the case? It is simply because we have been raised on a mixture of law and grace, and we are taught more frequently to look at our sin and failures instead of the God who is “in this place.”

In this message, Rev. Mark will encourage us to remember that God is in us – He is in this place. And, he shows us a wonderful nugget at the end of Jacob’s story at Bethel

Pride Goes Before a Fall

“Pride goes before a fall.” This is a Scripture found at Proverbs 16:18, tucked in between verse 17 – “The highway of the upright avoids evil; those who guard their ways preserve their lives,” and verse 19 – “Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud.”

Like trying to navigate one’s way through a forest without the light of the sun breaking through the trees, having a prideful heart can make us stumble and fall.

Humility can keep us from stumbling

God’s Love is the Answer to Pride

The way to humility is found in the words of the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 2:8,9 – “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”

In this episode of Fueled by Grace Pastor Mark shares how receiving the love and grace of God is the doorway to a life of humble gratitude, as opposed to living in prideful arrogance. And, he issues a call to pray in humility as individuals, as saints in the body of Christ, and for our nation’s leaders.

I Am Righteous

What a reality…what a truth! I am righteous, you are righteous! If you have accepted God’s gift of salvation you have been made righteous. It’s awesome!

Not only do we receive eternal life, John 3:16, but we are changed here on this earth when we accept the finished work of Christ. We are made righteous. In the NIV, 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.”

What a great exchange! I am righteous. You are righteous!

I love the way the Passion Translation states 2 Cor 5:21 – “For God made the only one who did not know sin to become sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God through our union with him.”

Watch the latest Fueled By Grace episode or listen here or at Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Amazon. And be sure to share this powerful, encouraging epsisode with your friends and family!

Led By the Wind of the Spirit

I have felt that God is saying this year is the year of the wind, and time to be led by the Spirit of God. It’s interesting in that I keep running into others who are preaching the same thing.

Lake Erie winds can be scary, but the wind of the Spirit in this season is encouraging.

For example, after I heard what God was saying to me, I heard Damon Thompson Ministries and The Homestead church in Mobile, AL are hearing the same sound.

Time to Pay Attention

I was with a friend the other night who said that their pastor is teaching on the wind of revival!

I’m paying attention, I hope you will! Listen and be encouraged and be led by the wind of the Spirit!

Come and Drink!

Jesus stood in the midst of the Feast of Tabernacles and exclaimed in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.  Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”

By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. John 7:37-39.

RIvers of livng water…Come and Drink!

Who Are You Really?

Who are you really? Isn’t it strange that we often refer to ourselves in the negative? Even stories of changed lives in the Bible we remember and refer to in the negative.

Listen as Mark shares how to change this mindset and apply it to Bible illustrations and our self-talk that defines who we are or who we think we are.

Should she be “the woman caught in adultery” or “the woman who received no condemnation?”

Big news! Listen where you get your podcasts, or watch the brand-new Fueled By Grace YouTube channel!

Be sure to share this message with your friends, family, and even your pastor. The Lord is touching pastors with a renewed revelation of the truth of the Gospel, and this is huge!
