Without God’s power in our lives we’ll be running on our own energy, which runs out. God has an infinite energy supply that will empower us to reach our physical goals. We tap into God’s power by faith. In this week's sermon I talk about choosing God’s dream, risking failure, expecting God to bless, and never giving up - all vital factors of faith.
