The Roots of a New Mt. Carmel Illinois Church Location
On January 26, 2013, randomly, I just had a thought. God spoke to me and said, “I want you to start a Mt. Carmel Illinois Church location in Mount Carmel.”
On January 26, 2013, I just jotted it down in my notes because I thought it was a random thought. I thought it was just me. I thought it was whatever. I did not know it was God until here Mt. Carmel Illinois Church we are. So on October 18th, 2017 Mt. Carmel Illinois Church we signed the papers for the building.
Almost two years later here Mt. Carmel Illinois Church we are having the grand opening. So God is faithful. So let hope arise. Can Mt. Carmel Illinois Church we give God some applause for being faithful in our life? Whew! He’s faithful. He’s faithful, Mt. Carmel Illinois Church.
So you have your thing. He may not be speaking to you about a new Mt. Carmel Illinois Church location, but I promise you, he’s speaking to you about something. He speaking to you about something that’s causing hope to rise in your heart again. Maybe you’ve gotten discouraged about disappointments, or things that didn’t go your way.

We need you to speak to us. We need you in this place. It is all for you and all about you. We pray that you cause hope to arise on the inside of us today.
Holy Spirit, just minister today. Flow in and out of every row, every seat, all of us. Change us from the inside out. Let this word come alive to us, because without you Mt. Carmel Illinois Church we have nothing but with you all things are possible.

Hebrews chapter 6, I’m going to start reading in verse 9 and do my best to read straight through to verse 13 so pray for me.
But beloved; that’s because every time I practice this, I would just start reading this and I’d stop and start preaching this and I would say, God, why am I preaching this to you? You’re the one who wrote it, but anyway, Mt. Carmel Illinois Church.
