Elevate Life Sacramento

Pastor Sergio wraps up this series talking to us about the gift of church. We cannot associate with Jesus without associating with the church. If you love Jesus, you love His church. Jesus gathered 'the elected' for his church, the ones who gave their lives to Him. When Jesus wants to move, He does it in the church. Satan hates church, he tries to infiltrate and keep us away. The reason why church is important is because it is always about community. The greatest test if you love God is, can you love your community of leaders? You don't get to love Jesus and hate His wife(the church). You don't belong to God until you love His house.

Merry Christmas from Elevate Life Church Sacramento! Pastor Sergio continues his 'The Gift of God' series talking to us about how we can't allow ourselves to do like the world does and not give Jesus the 'room' He has to have in our lives in order for it to get better. Much like the innkeeper in the story of Jesus' birth that said there was no room at the inn and made Mary and Joseph stay in the 'barn' as Jesus was born, too often we push Jesus away in our lives and put Him in our own barn. We can't only pull Jesus out of our barns when we need something, we have to make Him the King of our lives. The life Jesus died to give us is a life of sonship, we have to submit to Him and His Word!

Pastor Sergio continues his 'The Gift Of God' series by talking to us about how if we want the new life God has promised for us, we have to lay down our old life. There's more to the Gospel than just believing Jesus died on the cross for our sins. We can't deceive ourselves thinking we obey God because we go to church every Sunday. What opens the doors to the devil's darkness is disobedience to God's Word. The Gospel will set us free so we can serve God's will.

Pastor Sergio begins his new series 'The Gift Of God' teaching us about what exactly a gospel is and giving the definition of Jesus' Gospel. If you only know Jesus as Savior, you don't know the Gospel. You have to know and learn the benefits of His Gospel. When you get saved, everything must change. If you don't submit and allow Jesus to be the ruler of your life, he isn't your Savior and you don't get the results that happen when you're in His Kingdom. Jesus is King and the rightful ruler to everything in the universe and in your life, not just on Sundays.

Pastor Sergio concludes his Spread The Ops series as he talks about the spirit of Jezebel. The Jezebel spirit is driven by sexual appetites, control, idolatry, unrepentant sin, causes fear and loves to be seen. It is a spirit that attacks Godly authorities. We have to repent of whatever we are under in this spirit. God can only deliver His grace with our repentance. We must make sure we are not playing games with God and to not get caught within the grasp of this spirit.

Pastor Sergio continues his 'Spread The Ops' series and talks with us about how we have to make sure we don't allow ourselves to become gossipers and take the 'bait'of Satan(bitterness, anger, sin)which leads us to get caught in his trap and become hurt. When we take this bait, we want revenge. We have to draw boundaries with people who gossip, 'quit drinking the tea' and stop the gossip that leads to offense and hurt. Gossipers are warped, sinful and self-condemned. Are we vessels of honor or dishonor? We have to forgive everybody so Jesus can forgive us. We can't control what gossipers do, but we can control what we do!

Pastor Sergio continues his 'Spread The Ops' series and talks to us about why division is a serious crime against God. Dividers are not serving Jesus. Division cannot be a part of our lives, we have to walk in love and forgiveness. The Kingdom of God operates in multiplication, not division. We have to keep drama to ourselves and be a peace maker, not a peace keeper. God's grace empowers us to do what we don't want to do.

Pastor Sergio continues his Spread The Ops series and talks to us about how our mouths might be disqualifying us from the blessings God is trying to get to us. When we aren't united, the blessings stop. We cannot call ourselves Christians if we are a causer of division. We have to bring unity in everything we do. Unity makes the impossible, possible!

Pastor Sergio begins this new series talking to us about how we have to be uniters and not dividers. We have to be obedient to what God is teaching us about His Kingdom for us to see what the true oppositions are in our lives. The biggest tool Satan uses against us in our lives is the spirit of division. If we don't expose the darkness in our lives we will continue to operate in that spirit of darkness. Dividers don't work for God, they work for Satan. The enemy wants to come after our relationships to bring division, especially in marriages. We fight this by making sure we do 'maintenance' on our relationships, such as seeking Godly and professional counsel. We become uniters by loving everybody!

Pastor Sergio shares his testimonies about all God did in the nation of Ukraine this past week & Pastor Willard and Nathan Aguilar share their testimonies about how God moved in their missions in the nation of Peru! Jesus tells us in Matthew 28:19-20 to go into all the nations of the world and make disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit and teach them everything He has taught us in our walks with Him! We have to just say yes when He calls us to the nations and just go! #FromTheNeighborhoodToTheNations

Pastor Vic Lopez from People Church in Fort Stockton, Texas talks to us about why it is so important for us to move forward from the dead things in our past. If we are not over these things, we will continue to carry them instead of experiencing the abundant life Jesus promised to us. Our lives are not about our pursuit of Jesus, but His pursuit of us. We have to meet Jesus where he is, He cannot touch what we are not willing to surrender. Jesus is saying 'Come Here' to us. What things in our lives do we need to get over?

Pastor Vic Lopez from People Church in Fort Stockton, Texas brings us a powerful word from God about Peter in the Bible and how when he got out of the boat and walked on water, he actually walked out of his community and was disobedient to Jesus. The boat in this story represents the church. The farther away you get from the boat, or church, the more your faith shrinks and decreases. Jesus designed us for community and to stay in our community and worship together. The real test of our faith is if we're able to stay where He told you to stay. Do you have staying power?

Pastor Sergio continues his 'One' series and tells us about how we have to understand that the same reason God sent Jesus to redeem the lost, we must do the same. We are called to be the salt and the light on earth, if we are not doing what God called us to do we lost our flavor and will allow ourselves to be walked on in life. Just like it says in the book of Isaiah, 'Here am I! Send me!', as Jesus did, God has put us on earth to be fishers of men!
