🔥 NEW MESSAGE OUT NOW 🔥

“Positioning Ourselves for God’s Reviving Work” — Ezekiel 37:1–10

In Ezekiel 37, God shows the prophet a valley full of dry bones—dead, hopeless, and beyond human recovery. But into that impossible moment, God speaks a powerful truth: He alone brings life where there is none.

Revival is not something we can manufacture. It is when God breathes fresh spiritual life into His people—renewing love for Jesus, hunger for His Word, passion in worship, and obedience to His voice.

In this message, we look at how we position ourselves for God’s reviving work:

📖 God’s Word must be proclaimed
Revival begins when Scripture is central again—not just heard, but believed and obeyed.

🌬️ God’s Spirit must be depended on
Only the ruach of God—the breath and Spirit of God—can bring real life to what is spiritually dry.

🙌 God’s people must respond in faith
Ezekiel obeyed before he saw results. Revival follows obedient, faith-filled response.

The question God asks still echoes today:
“Can these bones live?”

From a human perspective—no.
But with God—absolutely yes.

We cannot create revival, but we can position ourselves for it.

Let’s open our hearts again to the Spirit of revival.

**CONTEND FOR YOUR HEALING AND WHOLENESS!**
*Isaiah 53:4–5 | Matthew 8:16–17 | 1 Peter 2:24*

# # # The LORD Is My Healer

Sickness, disease, pain, and brokenness are unfortunate consequences of mankind's fall into sin. Yet God has not left us without hope. Through Jesus Christ, He has provided both salvation and healing.

Just as we receive salvation by faith, we must also receive God's healing and restoration by faith. Healing is not something we earn—it is something we believe God for and receive from His gracious hand.

Over the last few days, I haven't felt my best. I've dealt with itchy eyes, neck discomfort, allergies, and a runny nose. This morning, while meditating on Scriptures about healing, the Holy Spirit reminded me of a powerful truth:

**God is my Healer!**

Of course, I've known this truth for years. But sometimes we need fresh manna from heaven. We need fresh revelation from God's Word. We need the Holy Spirit to illuminate familiar truths in a fresh way.

Today, I was reminded that healing is not merely something God does—**healing is part of who God is.** He is Jehovah Rapha, "The LORD who heals you."

**Isaiah 53:4–5 (NKJV)**

*"Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed."*

Jesus carried our sins to the cross, but He also carried our griefs, sorrows, pains, and afflictions. Through His suffering, He made provision for our healing and wholeness.

Whatever you're facing today—physical sickness, emotional pain, spiritual weariness, or mental distress—don't stop believing. Stand on God's Word. Pray. Trust Him. Receive His promises by faith.

**Contend for your healing. Contend for your wholeness. Contend for the promises of God.**

The same Savior who forgives is also the Savior who heals.

**The LORD is still our Healer today.**

☀️🎉 What an incredible Summer Kick-Off we had!

One of the most special parts of the evening was seeing all three of our campuses come together as one church family. Generational unity was on full display as kids, students, parents, and leaders laughed, played, served, and connected together.

We couldn’t have done it without our amazing volunteers! A huge shout-out to everyone who gave their time, energy, and heart to make this night unforgettable for our NextGen kiddos. Your willingness to serve helped create a fun, safe, and welcoming environment where families could build relationships and make lasting memories.

Thank you for investing in the next generation and helping create moments that matter. We are so grateful for each and every one of you! 💜💚

🎉 THIS SUNDAY, June 7, is FAMILY SERVICE SUNDAY! 🎉

Not only will children, students, and adults worship together, but our kids and youth will also have opportunities to serve and lead alongside the church family. ❤️

‼️ Don't miss the best Sunday of the month at Lakeshore Gastonia! ‼️

Invite a friend, bring your Bible 📖, and come with an open heart 💗 as we continue our series, Functional Family.
