- 121How To Make DecisionsWalking with God is a daily discipline. When you are consistent in your walk with the Lord, and apply the timeless principles of His Word in your marriage, in your family, and in your everyday life, you will gain the confidence He gives to those who trust Him in every circumstance of life.
- 122God Will ProvideOnce you have enrolled in God’s school of faith, you can expect to encounter some challenging tests along the way. The tests God allows us to face are demonstrations of our willingness to give Him highest priority in our lives, and to surrender to Him anything that we may treasure more than our relationship with Him.
- 123The Presence Of GodOne of the greatest challenges of our culture is that, as a people, we have lost our sense of the holiness of God. The solution: Don’t put God in a box! Draw near to Him, listen to Him, and invite Him to occupy the place He desires – and deserves - to have in your life.
- 124A Biblical PerspectiveGradualism is a frightening word. It refers to what happens when we move away from operating on the basis of the wisdom God provides for us. To combat gradualism, return to the blueprint God has given us that contains the instructions we need for victorious daily living.
- 125Grace In MarriageIt takes a lot of strength to swim against the tide of our culture. But that is precisely what biblical marriage requires. God has a plan for marriage, and when we understand and live according to that plan, we will be in a right relationship with God and with our mate.
- 126The Church AliveIn times of crisis, God equips His children to minister to their families and community as they become the hands and feet of Jesus in extraordinary ways. As we feed the hungry, comfort the afflicted, and encourage the broken-hearted, we fulfill - as at no other time - our God-given assignment.
- 127Fear LessFear may convince us that God is not present in times of danger, and that He will not - or cannot - help us. Our problem is one of focus. Turn your thoughts toward God, and you you will remember Who He is and how he works in the lives of those who trust in Him.
- 128God's Amazing PromisesGod’s promises are conditional, requiring knowledge, understanding, and application. Many misinterpret biblical promises, especially regarding prosperity. The five major covenants—Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and the New Covenant—outline God's relationship with humanity. Each has a sign, from the rainbow to the cross. These covenants reveal God’s faithfulness, guiding believers to claim His promises and live by His principles.
- 129The Greatest PromiseMany biblical promises have been misused, leading believers to shy away from claiming them. Understanding God's covenants—Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and the New Covenant—is key to grasping His promises. The Old Covenant was based on the law, while the New Covenant, sealed by Christ’s sacrifice, is one of grace. Salvation has always been by faith, not works.
- 130How To Claim Promises"How to claim the promises" explores God's covenants, showing how His promises unfold throughout history. The Old Covenant was law-based, while the New Covenant, through Christ, offers grace. Claiming God's promises requires understanding, asking, claiming, and acting. Many believers miss out on blessings by not fully embracing His Word.
- 131The Promise Of BaptismFaith requires action, not grand gestures but simple obedience. Like Naaman’s healing, transformation comes from trusting God’s Word. Salvation is through Christ alone, and believers must boldly live out their faith. Baptism symbolizes this transformation—dying to sin and rising in new life. Jesus calls us to confess Him before others, ensuring His acknowledgment before the Father in heaven.
- 132The Promise Of Success & GuidanceTrue success comes from seeking God’s guidance, understanding His promises, and living without deceit. Psalm 32 reveals the weight of unconfessed sin, the relief of repentance, and the joy of restoration. Through reflection (Selah), believers recognize their need for forgiveness, embrace God’s mercy, and experience His power. Faithful obedience leads to divine guidance and true fulfillment.
- 133The Promise Of PeaceMany of us are missing out on the promises God has given us, simply because we haven’t claimed them. In John 14:27, Jesus offers us peace—not the temporary, fragile peace of the world, but His divine, lasting peace. The opposite of peace isn’t sorrow, but fear. When we move toward God, we move away from fear. True peace comes from trusting Him, obeying His Word, and letting go of the need for worldly approval.
- 134The Promise Of ForgivenessMany of us live unaware of the incredible inheritance God has promised us as His children. We've yet to claim it, yet to receive it, because we haven't met the conditions He’s set. In this message, Dr. Young dives into a familiar passage—Matthew 6—and discover how to truly claim God's promises. Understanding, asking, claiming, and acting—these four steps unlock His blessings in our lives.
- 135The Promise Of PresenceFaith isn't just a vague feeling—it must have an object. True faith is built on God’s promises, and in this message Dr. Young explores one of the greatest: His presence. God told Moses, “My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.” But how do we claim that promise? By understanding, asking, claiming, and acting. Let’s dive in and make this truth our own!
- 136The Promise Of SalvationMany of us have overlooked or misunderstood the incredible promises God has given us. But as Dr. Young explores God's Word, we’ve seen His guidance, peace, and deliverance unfold. In this message, we turn to a foundational promise—one that changes everything. Found in Acts 2:38, this promise speaks of repentance, salvation, and the Holy Spirit’s power. Are you ready to claim what God has offered?
- 137The Promise Of JoyWhen life’s storms crack the window of your heart, making it hard to see God, what do you do? We often expect His promises like picking items off a shelf, but they come with conditions. Proverbs 3:5-6 gives us the answer—trust in the Lord, lean not on your own understanding, and acknowledge Him. Even when we can’t see Him clearly, He is there, guiding our path.
- 138The Idol of ChristianityThe four Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—offer biographies of Jesus, inspired by the Holy Spirit. Together, they reveal God's story as He walked on earth. Jesus embodied the Kingdom of God, teaching through parables, miracles, and His life. Dr. Young's message shows how to live as "Kingdom kids," with faith that grows, like wheat among tares, awaiting the final harvest.
- 139The Idol of Non-CommitmentThe Kingdom of God is at the heart of Jesus' message—spoken of over 200 times in the Gospels. Jesus' teachings reveal its nature, its mystery, and how one enters. Through parables, he illustrates the Kingdom's hidden value, like treasure in a field or a pearl of great price—worth everything. True disciples, like scribes, are called to teach and share its truths, living as Kingdom citizens.
- 140The Idol of SelfDr. Young walks through Jesus’ life in the Gospels. Now, we reach Luke 15—one of the greatest chapters in the Bible—where Jesus tells three unforgettable parables about lostness. A lost sheep. A lost coin. A lost son. The message? We’re all lost in some way—but the good news is, God is searching for us.
- 141The Idol of GreedJesus’ teachings in Luke 12 reveal profound truths about life, greed, and God’s kingdom. Amidst thousands, He warned against the unpardonable sin, emphasized our value to God, and challenged us to live as kingdom people. When interrupted by a man demanding inheritance rights, Jesus used the moment to expose greed’s dangers, teaching that life isn’t defined by possessions but by our relationship with God.
- 142The Idol of PoliticsEllis Island was a beacon of hope from 1892 to 1934, where countless immigrants sought freedom. The desire to "breathe free" remains vital today, yet our freedoms face challenges. In Luke 10, Jesus redefines "neighbor" through the Good Samaritan parable, challenging us to love beyond limits. True justification isn’t earned—it comes through Christ, calling us to compassionate, transformative action.
- 143Weakness Makes You StrongAt some point during your lifetime, you will most likely experience a thorn – a problem or situation you perceive not only as a weakness, but as something that limits your effectiveness. How God wants you to respond is one of the most critical principles you will learn in your walk with Christ.
- 144Where To BeginHow should individuals, and how should the church, respond to all the problems besetting our country today? Instead of becoming defeated by the challenges all around us, the answer is that we remember, and cling to, the foundational truths that define our identity, our purpose, and our ultimate destination.
