Come out of your Cave!
You were born for A CAUSE, not a cave!
Quit living in your Cave!
You were born for FAITH, not fear.
Will you allow fear to steal the Cause for which you were born?
Or…
Will you decide to eyeball your soul and face your fears and LIVE out…
THE CAUSE FOR WHICH YOU WERE BORN?
Gideon and God’s people lived in fear in a cave. (Judges 6)
They once experienced the Promise Land, but now?
They settled for a cave.
From the Promise Land to a cave.
My friends, that is a long way to fall.
Download that. Just because we have once moved into the Promise Land and experienced God’s blessings and God’s best, does not mean we will have permanent residency in…
The Promise Land.
Why did the mighty fall? Why did they forfeit The Promise Land? Why did they turn their back on the Cause? Why did they turn from people of faith to people of fear?
Again, the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD so God gave them into the hands of the Midianites. Judges 6:1
The Cave or The CAUSE, it’s your call.
Dear Pastor Buddy,
Thank you for your leadership and for Northway Church. I thought I should share a story with you that perhaps will give you some encouragement.
My father passed away in September and at the wake I found myself in a conversation with my older brother (a pastor) and one of my best friends (who is an elder in his church in Colonie). I have invited both many times to visit Northway and although my brother never has, my friend since we have opened Colonie has visited us several times. My friend said, the thing that impressed him the most about Northway was not the technology, he is more a traditonalist, but the spirit of the people at Northway. He said he wished that his congregation could show the same “pride in being a Christian” as he felt from the people at Northway. He went on to say, that we all worship the same God, and it shouldn’t matter how we worship, but that all Chirstian churches need to show the same enthusiasm, pride in our Lord and faith as Northway Church.
Since becoming a Christian and going to Northway Church, I can tell you I have no problem witnessing my faith and every week, you strengthen my conviction. I do not come to Northway for the show, I come because every week you breathe new life into my soul and give me the strength to move forward, knowing there is a loving God who has my back.
God Bless and Protect You and your family
Amazing story Larry!
Thank you for sharing it…keep sharing it.
Btw, I don’t come for the show either….its ALL about the presence of GOD.
Thanks again, and tell your bro I said hello.
Pastor Buddy, Last Sunday was such a powerful message. I really felt like you were talking to me specifically. Scary!! I know there are many people who felt the same way I did. I have to tell you, in the past year and a half that I’ve been attending Northway I have never ever been disappointed. I have been reading the bible for many years now, a lot of times not understanding some things. Trying, but never quite getting there. When you and your associate Pastors preach, Its like a light goes on. I have always felt that I had a relationship with God but now I feel so much closer to Him. Its almost like the lights have come on. I have a peace that was always hard for me to find. Thank you so much for the good work you all do at Northway. I will continue to pray for you and your family.
