Sonrise Church SA Weekly

On October 17th, 2010 @ 6pm we will have the first gathering of the resurrected Sonrise Church SA. I can't tell you how excited I am to see this come to pass. The response from different people has been very encouraging. This is confirmation that God has declared He is not finished with Sonrise SA yet.

For our first gathering we are going to have Forefront leading us in praise and worship. There is going to be some great multimedia, testimonies and special guests. You will not want to miss this service. I believe this will be a time for personal breakthroughs for many. Make your plans. The location is almost nailed down. Stay tuned. If you need prayer please email sonrisechurch@mail.com or call 210.670.0831

Weekly Message

 The Raising of Lazarus

We live in a world of flesh and blood and things don't always go the way we would like them to. My brother died of Leukemia at the age of 22. My father died of cancer. Lazarus became ill and died. Lazarus  was a personal friend of Jesus. While he was ill they called for Jesus to come to his bed side but Jesus did not make it and Lazarus died. They buried him and they were mourning him when Jesus showed up. Martha the sister of Lazarus told Jesus if you just would have been here my brother would not have died. Jesus makes this statement "this death is for the glory of God."

There are times in life when we think its over. We lay it in the tomb and we mourn. We say if only Jesus....
Even death can be conquered if that is what Jesus declares. You may think your dream is dead, you may think God cannot use you anymore, you may think that opportunity has passed...but Jesus has the last say.

what can be done:

Pray in the name of Jesus at the tomb. Let others help you remove any obstacles that are in the way. Let God remove the stone away. If God is in it call forth that which has died and let the power of God bring it back.
Remember God has the last say on anything. There are times when we must let things go but if you are feeling the prompting of the Holy Spirit in a situation don't ignore it. Even after something comes back from the dead there will be alot of work to be done. Just as Lazarus came forth bound in grave clothes and had to be loosed so we will have to allow for a time for working through issues that may arise.
