Malachi 3:10 NKJV "Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the LORD of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it." Tithing is a pre- Mosaic law principle established Abraham where the first 10th of His increase went to God by way of priest. Tithing is giving to God by way of the Gods House. What if all the tithe is the key to a miracle that none of us have seen before firsthand?

Sermon Notes: What if we're only experiencing a fraction of the joy and laughter,? *What if there is more? What if there's way more! Tithe: a tenth / 10% Tithing originated with Abraham.  God blessed him, and he made a vow to give God a 10th of what he had. Genesis 28:22 New King James Version 22 And this stone which I have set as a pillar shall be God’s house, and of all that You give me I will surely give a tenth to You For God to reach our hearts long term, He must get past our money. For God to have our hearts long term, We must get past our money.

What happens when we praise God? In this message, Praise God (Part One), Pastor Alvin Love explores what Scripture teaches about praise and why it is much more than a response to good moments. Walking through Psalm 91, Psalm 22, and several Hebrew words used throughout Scripture, we see that praise is a choice—and that our lives can look different when praise becomes part of how we respond to God no matter the circumstance. Learn how praise shifts our focus toward who God is and helps us intentionally honor Him with our words, our bodies, our music, and our lives. Scripture references: Psalm 91:2–16 Psalm 22:3 Psalm 35:18 — Halal Psalm 138:1 — Yadah Psalm 103:1 — Barak/Baruch Psalm 150:3–5 — Zamar Psalm 63:3–4 — Shabach Psalm 34:1 — Tehillah Psalm 50:23 — Towdah Subscribe to our channel to see more messages from Nashville Life Church: https://www.youtube.com/@nashvillelifechurch   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

What happens when we stop noticing everything God has already done? In this message, Don't Forget to Remember, Pastor CeCe teaches that our greatest problem is rarely that God hasn't done enough, it's that we've forgotten what he already has. Walking through Psalms 103, Deuteronomy 8, and the story of the three Hebrew boys in Daniel, she reminds us that "gratitude keeps you humble" and that it has to become a daily discipline, trained and practiced, especially in the middle of the storm. Prosperity can make us forget just as easily as adversity drives us to him. Learn why "your diagnosis isn't your whole life" and how remembering what God has already done positions your heart to expect him to move again. Scripture references: Psalms 103:1-5 Deuteronomy 8:11-18 2 Chronicles 26:5, 16 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Acts 27:35 Philippians 4:6-9 John 6:11 Daniel 3:15-18 Hebrews 11 Subscribe to our channel to see more messages from Nashville Life Church: https://www.youtube.com/@nashvillelifechurch   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

Is it possible to pray every day and still miss what God is actually saying? This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our "Wait on the Lord" series with a message titled "Intimate with God." Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 14:14, and Romans 8:26, he reminds us that Christianity is spiritual by nature, and real intimacy with God requires more than our natural understanding. There has to be a conversion, a shift from praying our will to praying His. Using Peter's rebuke of Jesus in Matthew 16 as a picture, Pastor Alvin shows how soulish prayers, ones rooted in emotion, understanding, or willpower, can sound faithful and still miss what God is actually doing. This message challenges us to move past praying to God and into praying from Him, trading our need to understand for the deeper intimacy of being led by His Spirit (Romans 8:14-15). How close are you to God? And how much are you willing to let Him lead?

Is being near God the same as actually knowing Him? This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our 21 Days of Prayer series with a message titled "God In Us." Drawing from Romans 5:10 and Acts 2:17, he reminds us that God's desire has always been communion with us, not just His presence beside us, but His Spirit inside us. Using the picture of a server tending to a table, Pastor Alvin shows how waiting on the Lord isn't passive. It's active investment, learning the heart and priorities of Jesus through prayer, prophecy, and healing. This message challenges us to move past a "God with us" faith and into the deeper intimacy of "God in us." As we invest instead of coast, our desires start to align with His. And that's when day 22 stops looking like a finish line and starts looking like a starting line. How close are you to God? And how much of Him is actually in you?

What does it actually look like to practice sacrificial worship? This week, Pastor Alvin dives into the heart of biblical worship: sacrifice. Drawing from Romans 12:1 and John 4:23-24, he unpacks why worship was never meant to be convenient, and why God isn't asking for your leftovers. He's asking for everything. Using the picture of a bank deposit, Pastor Alvin reminds us that God gave us His all, so it's only reasonable that He's asking for ours in return. This message challenges us to move past a Sunday morning routine and into a lifestyle of costly, sacrificial devotion. Because biblical worship was never about convenience. It's about what you're willing to give up. How costly is your worship? How sacrificial is it? This week's word will make you ask yourself both.

Is your relationship with God one-sided? This week, Pastor Alvin opens up James 4, Luke 19, and John 15 to challenge us with a simple question: are we truly matching the God who has already given us everything? Every good relationship needs mutual attraction, mutual interest, and mutual service, and God proved his devotion long before we ever turned toward him. Through the story of Abraham and Isaac, we see a God who leads by example and only asks us to give what he's already given first. He is Emmanuel, God with us, and he's still asking the same question today. Do you believe he wants you? And do you want him back? This message will challenge you to stop performing for God and start truly matching his heart through honest prayer and real devotion.

How do you know whether you're saving or spending your energy on the Lord? This week, we kick off 21 Days of Prayer and Pastor Alvin unpacks what it really means to wait on the Lord in his message titled "Spend It on the Lord." Drawing from Isaiah 40, Isaiah 55, and Proverbs 14, he reminds us that God's ways are often the opposite of our instincts. We think saving our energy grows our energy. Jesus says spending it on Him does, and He says the same about our time, our money, our talent (Luke 6:38, Matthew 16:25). Pastor Alvin shows how waiting isn't passive. It's active, like a server tending to a table, learning the person and priorities of Jesus. As we give instead of hold back, our desires start to align with His. And there's no greater joy than that. This is the mindset God wants us to carry into these 21 days.

What do you do when life isn't the way it should be? Guest speaker Pastor Charne Pretorius from 3C Church in South Africa joins us with a powerful word from 2 Samuel 21:1-14, the story of a woman who refused to let her sons' story end where it seemed to end. When a promise made generations earlier finally came due, she had a choice to make. And she chose to put her weight where it belonged. Pastor Charne reminds us that life isn't fair. There's an enemy who comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and he's never been on our side. But we were never meant to carry the weight of things that shouldn't be. We're called to cast our cares on Jesus, the one who cares for us, because he doesn't just carry the weight. He took the fall for it. Pastor Charne also shares her own testimony, forty days of prayer and a victory that could only be God's timing. Whatever you're standing over right now, whatever feels too heavy to put down, this message will show you where to lay it. Everything can be the way it should be.

What does it really mean to be one with Christ? Building on last week's message on the new wineskin, Pastor Alvin unpacks Matthew 9:17 and shows why God can't pour new things into the old version of us. Through John 15, he introduces the Vinedresser and makes it clear that pruning isn't punishment. It's proof you're already bearing fruit. We're either in Christ or we're not. Bearing much fruit or bearing none. Pastor Alvin challenges us to examine our hearts and our actions, because our lives reveal what we actually believe, and walks through the three levels of judgment: self-judgment, chastisement, and condemnation, making the case that judging yourself first is always the better path. The new wineskin isn't just a new heart. It's a new mind, the mind of Christ. Discover what it looks like to think, live, and walk fully in step with him.
