Let Jesus Serve You

Are you struggling to hear God's voice? What if hearing Him isn't as difficult as you've been led to believe?Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice.” He didn't say His sheep struggle to hear His voice or have to work to recognize it. He said they hear it!In this powerful message, Pastor Al Jennings explains that hearing God's voice isn't just about receiving direction for your life. It's also about believing what God says about you.Using John 10, Galatians 3:5, and Matthew 3–4, Pastor Al reveals an important connection between hearing God's voice and walking in faith.Before Jesus performed His first miracle, the Father affirmed His identity, declaring Him His beloved Son. And when Satan later tempted Jesus in the wilderness, he challenged that very identity.The same battle takes place in our lives today.God says you're loved, righteous, valuable, and accepted. But the voice of a stranger tells you you're not good enough, reminds you of your failures, and tries to convince you that you'll never measure up.Which voice are you believing?Pastor Al explains how you can measure your spiritual growth.You’ll also discover that God’s love isn’t based on your performance, that understanding your identity prepares you to receive His direction, and that the New Covenant message is one of encouragement and good news.Here's the truth: Your mistakes don't define you. God does!This message will encourage you to stop agreeing with the voice of condemnation, recognize your value as God's beloved child, and confidently believe what your Heavenly Father says about you.Connect with Pastor Al:Instagram: @aljenningsIf this message encourages you, share it with someone who needs to be reminded of who they are in Christ.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Are you seeing yourself the way God sees you?In this powerful message, Pastor Al explains that when we received Jesus, we became brand-new creations. The old ways of seeing ourselves are over! It's time to become acquainted with the new.Through 1 Peter 2:9 and 1 John 4:17, he reminds us that we are royalty, chosen by God, and destined to reign in life. The Bible declares, "As He is, so are we in this world." Not when we get to heaven, but right now!Pastor Al also explains what it means to be an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. Our identity isn't based on our performance or accomplishments. It's based on what Jesus has already accomplished for us.In this message, Pastor Al explains the difference between experiencing God's blessings under the Old Covenant and the New Covenant.Under the Old Covenant, blessings were conditional based on man's obedience. But under the New Covenant, we are blessed because of Jesus' obedience, not our own. Through His finished work, we have inherited the blessing of Abraham.Pastor Al brings these truths into everyday life, showing how knowing who you are should change the way you speak, think, respond to challenges, and handle opposition.You were never meant to live like a chicken when God created you to soar like an eagle!This message will encourage you to stop speaking defeat over your life, discover the promises that belong to you, and begin seeing yourself the way God sees you.You are a new creation. You are royalty. You are blessed. You are an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ.It's time to know who you are—and live like it!Scriptures referenced:2 Corinthians 5:17 | 1 Peter 2:9 | 1 John 4:17 | Romans 8:17 | Galatians 2:20 | Galatians 3:13–14 | Romans 5:19 | Deuteronomy 28:1–13Connect with Pastor Al:Instagram: @aljenningsIf this message encourages you, share it with someone who needs to be reminded of who they are in Christ.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Do we need to balance grace with truth? Is preaching too much grace dangerous? And what really causes believers to live godly lives?In this message, Pastor Al challenges some common misconceptions about grace and explains why the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Gospel of Grace.Using John 1:16–17, Pastor Al explains what the Bible means when it says that the law came through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. He also explains why grace doesn’t need to be balanced with truth.Pastor Al also addresses the kind of preaching that constantly tells believers to do more, try harder, and be better. He explains that Jesus didn't come to place more religious burdens on us. He came to give us rest and teach us the unforced rhythms of grace.But does grace encourage people to live in sin? Absolutely not!Using Titus 2:11–12, Pastor Al shows that it's God's grace that teaches us to reject ungodliness and live godly lives. Real transformation doesn't come from focusing on our failures or trying harder in our own strength. It comes from receiving God's grace and keeping our eyes on Jesus.He also explains Romans 5:17, revealing a powerful truth: We don't reign in life by doing. We reign in life by receiving.When we receive the abundance of God's grace and the free gift of righteousness, we can reign in life through Jesus Christ.Throughout this message, Pastor Al reminds believers that our identity isn't determined by our past, our struggles, our performance, or what others say about us. Our identity comes from who God says we are in Christ.This message will encourage you to stop striving to earn what Jesus has already provided, embrace your identity in Christ, and discover the freedom that comes from living under grace.Key Scriptures: John 1:16–17, Matthew 11:28–30, Galatians 1:6–9, Titus 2:11–12, Romans 5:17, Romans 7:18, Romans 8:1, and 2 Corinthians 3:18.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Who defines you? Your past, your circumstances, other people, or God's Word?In Part 3 of Valuing God's Word, Pastor Al continues teaching about one of the most important things every believer needs to understand—our identity in Christ.Using 2 Corinthians 5:17, Pastor Al explains what it really means to be a new creation. When you received Jesus, you didn't simply turn over a new leaf or become an improved version of your old self. You became a brand-new creation in Christ!Your past doesn't define you. Other people's opinions don't define you. God's Word defines who you are.Pastor Al also teaches about the incredible promises God has given us and the importance of believing what He says. These promises aren't just words on a page. They reveal what God has already made available to us through Jesus Christ.In this message, you'll discover:* Your identity comes from God, not your past or other people's opinions.* You are a new creation in Christ.* God's promises reveal what He has already deposited within you.* You have been made a partaker of God's divine nature.* God's Word changes how you see yourself and respond to life's challenges.* Spiritual growth comes from recognizing and embracing what God has already placed within you.* Jesus' finished work has provided forgiveness and a new identity in Christ.Drawing from 2 Peter 1, Pastor Al explains that God's divine power has already given us everything we need for life and godliness. Through His precious promises, we can live free from the corruption that is in the world.He also explains the importance of continually reminding ourselves of these truths. We grow spiritually by recognizing who we already are in Christ and allowing God's Word to become established in our hearts.Don't allow your past, your circumstances, or the opinions of others to determine who you are. God has already given you a new identity in Christ!This message will encourage you to value God's Word, believe His promises, and live with a greater awareness of everything God has already provided through Jesus.Scripture references: 2 Corinthians 5:17, 2 Peter 1, Psalm 119:11, and Acts 20:32.#ValuingGodsWord #PastorAlJennings #IdentityInChrist #NewCreation #Grace #FinishedWorkOfJesus #SummitChurchConnect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

Who defines you? The world, other people, or God's Word?In Part 2 of Valuing God's Word, Pastor Al reminds us that our identity, our future, and what we believe about ourselves should be shaped by what God says—not by the opinions of others or the limitations of this world.Using 1 John 4:4, Pastor Al reminds us that the Greater One lives inside every believer. Everything we need to live the life God has called us to live has already been deposited within us.He also emphasizes the importance of valuing God's Word, believing His promises, and allowing His Word to become established in our hearts.In this message, you'll discover:God's Word—not the world—should define who you are.God's promises are Yes and Amen in Christ.Living under grace, rather than the law, empowers us to overcome sin.God's Word brings life, healing, and transformation.Understanding Jesus' finished work frees us from the pressure of trying to earn God's approval.Pastor Al also shares how God's grace gives us the freedom to enjoy life, explore new interests, and experience the abundant life Jesus came to give us.Be encouraged to value God's Word, embrace what He says about you, and begin living from the truth of who you already are in Christ.Scripture references: 1 John 4:4, 1 Corinthians 15:56, Romans 6:14, 2 Corinthians 1:20, Matthew 4:4, Psalm 23, and Proverbs 4:20–22.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support

In this message, Pastor Al shares powerful insights from his experience at Ecamm’s Creators Camp in New Hampshire and encourages believers to recognize the creativity, gifts, and abilities God has placed within them.Using Deuteronomy 8:17–18, he explains that God gives us the power and ability to get wealth. Because the Creator lives within us, we all have the capacity to create. We don’t have to limit ourselves to traditional paths or believe there is only one way to generate income. Instead, Pastor Al encourages believers to pursue what God has placed in their hearts.He also shares what he learned from creators who are building businesses, developing their gifts, and generating income in a variety of ways.Pastor Al emphasizes the value of God’s Word in our lives and the importance of knowing who defines us.

Our identity, expectations, and possibilities should be shaped by God’s Word—not by the limitations of the world around us.This message will encourage you to value your gifts, invest in your growth, reject fear and doubt, and pursue what God has deposited inside of you.There is something inside of you that God intends for you to use.

What is the one thing the Bible tells believers to fear? Pastor Al reveals the answer in this message and explains why it matters as we learn to live by faith and enter God’s rest. In this message, Pastor Al teaches that God desires to bring His people into a “good land”—a place of blessing and abundance. This isn’t about selfish prosperity, but about understanding that God’s desire to bless His people has not changed.Using Deuteronomy, Hebrews 4, Numbers 13, and Joshua, Pastor Al explains how the Promised Land under the New Covenant is “rest”—a place where we simply “believe”, instead of relying on our own striving and hustle. Israel’s journey was delayed for 40 years because they focused on the giants before them instead of believing what God had said. While others responded with fear, Joshua and Caleb believed God and were ready to move forward and possess the land.What has God placed before you? This message will encourage you to refuse fear, believe God’s Word, and move forward by faith to take possession of what He has set before you.Connect with Me!Daily Devotional https://www.summitonline.church/devotionalWebsitehttps://www.summitonline.churchInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/draljenningsOnline Bible Study Coursehttps://www.summitonline.church/foundationLeave Me a Tiphttps://livingbygrace.captivate.fm/support
