At The Edge Of The Impossible

 

When standing at the edge of the impossible, step out! God will use you!
Matthew 14:28 "And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?"
I often wonder what all God has in store for us at Crossroads Baptist Church?!? What does God have in store for you? When will the impossible occur again? When will we rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory? Maybe today?!? Maybe tomorrow?!? But while we patiently wait, we must keep our eyes on God, fully trusting that He is always ready to do something God-like while we stand of the edge of decision.
We can live out the impossible through Christ's power and allowance. Don't step back from the edge of the impossible. Step forward into the unknown, illogical to man, and amazing will of God.
Always remember, the impossible is possible with Christ, and when we take our eyes off of Christ and place them on the circumstances, we will sink too!
Step out, in faith believing, and never look back! Remember, the impossible will not seem logical, but the impossible accomplished by God through you will always point back to God!

It's time.

Blessed Beyond Measure,
Pastor Justyn Smith • Crossroads Baptist Church • Peoria, IL

Three "Musts" For Missions Revival

  Three "Musts" For Missions Revival I'm really excited about getting in on everything God has in store for us this week at our 2016 Missions Revival, "REACHING THE NATIONS," and it's my desire to prepare you to be ready for our missions revival this week by giving you the "Three 'Musts' For Missions Revival." I'm so thankful for the many who have volunteered their services in many different ways (food prep, basket items, decorating, 5K sign up, etc), but there is still a few things that need to be done. Let me list them so you can help us all be ready for a great missions revival this week! I. We must be  Pure !  There's no need for us to wait for tonight to "get things in order spiritually." Get them in order now. Let's search our hearts and our lives. We'll find out the meeting will be "that much better" if we are where we need to be spiritually, which is, in right standing before God with no deceitful...

Dear Family and Friends... The Work of our December ministry was exciting and extremely blessed by the Lord!  Our hearts are full, and we are marveling over our Saviour's birth! We are rejoicing over so many things to report...first, thank you for your faithful prayers, love and support. NOTES:  We ARE CURRENTLY in Alaska visiting family and ministering the Word of God through the first week of February. Please take note that any support sent by mail may take a little longer to be deposited. Also, our envelopes need to be reprinted due to an old address on them. If you don’t know it already, please take note of the new address for correspondence on our website. We will attempt to produce an annual “report” newsletter after the first of the year, but this may not be accomplished until we return from Alaska the first part of February. We shall see! REJOICE POINTS: 1. We were gifted a trip to Branson!  We got to meet and fellowship with the lovely people of Calvary Baptist C...
