Being Sure About Heaven

April 3, 2018

There is a peace that comes with knowing you can trust in someone’s promise. Being sure about our eternity in heaven is no exception. Jill speaks on John 14 where Jesus promises all believers that He has gone to prepare a place for us and he will return for us once again. His death on the cross made it possible for Him to follow through on this promise.

Learn to trust God through all of life’s storms and squalls!
Jill Briscoe’s powerful teaching, Weathering the Storms of Life, along with 12 uniquely designed Scripture cards will help you trust God in all life’s storms!

Life is full of squalls—sudden unannounced and unexpected storms that can lead us to question if God is in control of our lives. Death, sickness, unemployment, broken relationships, fears and failures are some of the troubles Satan uses to swamp us with doubt, usually when we’re already stressed and exhausted. How do you respond when you’re hit with the squalls of life? Are you like the disciples in Mark 4 who wondered why Jesus slept while their boat was sinking, or do you believe God is in as much control when He’s seemingly asleep as when He’s obviously awake? Do you pray, “Don’t let there be another squall”? Or do you see storms as part of God’s plan for your life? Teaching from the Gospel of Mark, Jill Briscoe addresses the issues of suffering and faith, challenging us to examine our beliefs in God in the midst of trouble.

How do you approach crisis? Many of us see crisis as a dead end, when, in reality, it’s a crossroads, presenting both danger and opportunity. Opportunity for what? To see what God alone can do with the most impossible situations. In this message, Jill Briscoe shares how the miracle of Easter and the resurrection of Jesus can change how you respond to crisis. We learn the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in us and works in us! At the completion of the message from Mark 16:1-8, Jill expresses Christ’s sacrifice through her poem “You Wore My Thorns.”

“On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: ‘Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.’” After Jesus’ ascension into heaven, the believers were filled with fear, wondering if they would be next to be crucified. But something happened that energized these people, gave them power to speak and do things as they never could have before!

“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” It’s no secret that all of us will die in the end. Even Jesus died! And this makes His resurrection one of the most important aspects of His life and a source of incredible hope for us.

“When he had received the drink, Jesus said, ‘It is finished.’ With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”

“Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, ‘My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.’” How would you feel if you knew you were going to die painfully tomorrow? When Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane, He was struggling with that same knowledge, for not only was He to be crucified the next day, but He was also to bear the weight of all our sin! How did He deal with such emotions? And how can we handle emotions in our own lives?

“So Jesus said, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me.’” Jesus’ ministry only spanned three short years but had an incredible impact, lasting millennia. What was it about His approach that gave Him such power?

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”

“The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.”

Sometimes we think that if we could only get what we want, we would finally be happy. Solomon thought that, too. He had a “getting” obsession, never denying himself anything he wanted, and he became “greater by far than anyone in Jerusalem before [him].”  But all these things didn’t bring Solomon the happiness he was looking for. Solomon and you and I are all trying to soothe a heart ache that can’t be cured by “things” but only by finding our purpose, the reason we were made!
