    LIVING SACRIFICE 28 - The Spirit of Perversion
    Aug 31 2025
    What happens when we choose to ignore the subtle ways evil tries to infiltrate our lives? In a powerful message on discerning spirits, Pastor Jimmie illuminates how perverse spirits work to normalize sin and blur the lines between right and wrong. Drawing from Romans and 1 Corinthians, he explains that while we shouldn't judge non-believers, we have a biblical responsibility to lovingly confront fellow Christians who persist in sin. Through vivid examples like Halloween celebrations and changing church doctrines, Pastor Jimmie demonstrates how perverse spirits gradually chip away at our convictions until wrong seems right. His urgent call challenges believers to stand firm on God's unchanging truth rather than adapting it to match cultural preferences. The message stresses that true love means upholding God's standards while showing compassion - we must choose to walk across the bridge to heaven through obedience rather than compromising our way to destruction. Will you commit to testing every spirit against Scripture and lovingly holding fellow believers accountable?

    LIVING SACRIFICE 27 = The Spirit of Perversion
    Aug 24 2025
    Have you ever wondered what holds you back from experiencing the fullness of God's power in your life? Pastor Jimmy delivers a powerful message about the critical importance of being filled with the Holy Spirit after salvation. Drawing from Matthew 12:44, he warns that when evil spirits find a "cleaned but empty house" - representing a saved but Spirit-unfilled believer - they return with even greater force. Through vivid examples and urgent teaching, Pastor Jimmy emphasizes that salvation through Jesus cleanses us, but being filled with the Holy Spirit provides the power to live victoriously and resist returning to old patterns. He particularly focuses on the "spirit of perversion" that tries to normalize sin and compromise in believers' lives, from dress to relationships. The message culminates in a call for Christians to reject perverse thinking that divides and limits us, and instead embrace our full identity as heirs of Abraham's promise through Christ. This teaching challenges believers to move beyond mere salvation to complete submission to the Lordship of Christ through the indwelling Holy Spirit.

    Aug 17 2025
    What happens when jealousy creeps into our hearts? Through a powerful examination of Cain and Abel's story, Pastor Jimmie reveals how the spirit of jealousy destroys relationships and hinders God's work. Like Cain who became angry when his offering wasn't accepted, we often let comparison and resentment poison our perspective. The pastor shares a striking insight: God doesn't accept what we think is right unless it aligns with what He says is right.Drawing from examples like King Saul's jealousy of David and the religious leaders' envy of Paul's ministry, Pastor Jimmy shows how this destructive spirit manifests through suspicion, resentment, and division. He emphasizes that each person has a unique calling from God - "I'm the best Jimmy Hicks Jr. anyone can be, and you're the best you anyone can be." The key is staying focused on God's specific plan for your life rather than comparing yourself to others.The sermon concludes with an inspiring testimony of how God's faithfulness exceeded all expectations in the church's ministry, from paying off the building to community development projects. The message calls believers to celebrate others' victories while trusting God's unique purpose for their lives. "Where God guides, He provides," Pastor Jimmie affirms.
