It Won't Last Forever

When times get tough, it seems that the difficult days will never end. Remember: suffering won't last forever. When times are luxurious, and at seems that the things of the world will always last, remember this: stuff won't last forever. In this message from James 4:1-11, It Won't Last Forever, God's Word helps you to examine yourself, your motives, and your focus to see if you are living life with an eternal perspective. Because things of this world are passing away. As it says in the gospels (KJV), "this too shall pass." http://lpbaptist.org/ItWontLastForever.mp3

On a Journey with the LORD

Life is a journey. As a follower of Christ, we are on a lifelong journey with the LORD. In Proverbs 16:9, we read: "A man's heart plans his way, but the LORD determines his steps." How do we make sure our heart is in line with the LORD's heart? And, how does God sovereignly determine our steps, and also speak to us so that we know which way to go? Listen to this message entitled On a Journey with the LORD. http://lpbaptist.org/OnAJourneyWithTheLord.mp3
