(Exodus 14:13-14 and 2 Chronicles 20:12-15)

Pastor George reminded the congregation that even ants and birds know when a new season is dawning. Ants begin to gather food for the winter and birds, depending on their location, will fly to another locality in preparation for the new season.

As followers of Christ we must be cognizant of new seasons and realize that in the very middle of our situations, issues and circumstances that God is going to show Himself strong; however, there is a qualifier, and that qualifier is: the willingness to obey.

“Ain’t nobody” mad but the Devil because he knows what God is bringing forth in our lives! As we go about our daily routine we must remember two important items:

1. If God be for you (not man, nor Buddha), who can be against you?! (Romans 8:31)
   You have to get an attitude with the Devil and call Him a liar!
2. God is revealing a new season through visions and His word (Exodus 3:14-15)

In closing, Pastor George reminded everyone to remember what’s under their feet—dominion authority (Psalms 8:6) and the blessings and curses of obedience (Deuteronomy 11:22-28).

Quote of the sermon:

“As long as you say ‘my way or the highway, God can’t have His way.’"- Pastor George Dix Jr.
