"The Lord Will Fight Your Battles"
Pastor Steve Gaines encourages the church with a sermon titled "The Lord Will Fight Your Battles" out of Exodus 14. With the Egyptians closing in on the Israelites at the Red Sea, Moses tells the crowd that God will win the victory for them. We may never face anything as harrowing as an escape from our Egyptian enslavers, but we all have challenges in our lives that threaten to undo us. Whether you are facing a problem at work or home, know that God understands your need and is working behind the scenes according to His will. 0:00 - The Gaines family faces a hard medical diagnosis 5:08 - Even Christians go through hard times 7:34 - Moses leads the Israelites to the Red Sea 18:54 - King Hezekiah trusts God to defeat his enemies 22:44 - The Lord fights for His people #BellevueBaptistChurch #BellevueMemphis #SteveGaines
"Serve Your Way to the Top"
Pastor Steve Gaines teaches on how to "Serve Your Way to the Top" in this message from Mark 9:30–37. If you are not willing to serve others and humble yourself before God, it is impossible for you to be great in the kingdom of God. Learning from the examples of servant leadership in the Bible, as well as a secular company like Costco, we see that leading from a place of humility can lead to amazing results. 0:00 - Introduction of our text 7:25 - The Mount of Transfiguration 13:25 - Jesus Speaks with His Disciples About His Death 15:25 - The Disciples Argue Over Who is the Greatest Among Them 19:10 - How Costco Models Servant Leadership 24:30 - If You Want to Be Great, Be Humble 27:59 - Jesus' Humility on the Cross 30:34 - Learning from King Rehoboam's Bad Counsel #BellevueBaptistChurch #BellevueMemphis #SteveGaines
