1 Thessalonians 5:1-28

 We are in Grace period which is unmerited favor of God.
All we need to do is believe
Put on your whole armor
Christ came to save not to condemn
Encourage one another
Help and support the weak ones
Always be joyful
Pray unceasing
Be thankful and give thanks unto God
Keep away from evil
Test and prove for yourself, do not just believe what a person tells you
Peace, we have
We are striving to stand before Him blameless

Note: Romans 12:1-2 - v1 And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice - the kind He will accept.  When you think of what He has done for you, is this too much to ask? v2  Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect His will really is.

Sermon

Ephesians 3:20-21

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be the glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen

Subject: Who Is Able? God Is Able!

God created the earth. He spoke and it was!
Every good and perfect gift comes from above.
He is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think
To unlock God's abundance is to have faith.
Our expectations influence everything that we do, whether they are good or bad.
We should call forth those things that are not as though they were (Romans 4:17b).
Do we have fear or faith; optimism or pessimism?
Faith is a positive expectation.
Our days should always be optimistic.
Approach life with "the" measure of faith.
Be still and know that I am God.
By expecting the best, we honor God.
Start each day with a spirit of faith.
Only believe.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:5).
 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things (Philippians 4:8).
God is able....
God is able to do all....
God is able to do all that we ask or think....
God is able to do all that we ask or think exceeding abundantly.....
God is able to do all that we ask or think exceeding abundantly above all.....
God is able to do all that we ask or think exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think....
God is able!
