Scripture: Psalms 103:2-5;2 Cor. 4:16-18 Topic:”Devine Benefits!” Is it worth blessing the Lord? Yes it is! Do you understand the Devine benefits of this scripture? When you bless the Lord, you thank Him for his mercies! Bless the Lord oh my soul! Your soul is your psych- God breathed soul into Adam. The breath of life passes through your throat. It is the central part- your feelings inside of you. It is the spiritual part of you. Benefits is an act of promoting wellbeing i

SUNDAY MORNING TIDBITS – 02/01/26 Pastor Richelle “Chelle” Melvin
Scripture: Jeremiah 29:11 Topic: “Purpose!” The world would say that purpose is something discovered by looking deep inside of oneself and by following your passions and chasing your dreams. Real purpose and transforming purpose can only be found in Jesus Christ. Many of us do not understand our purpose. What are you here for? We are made to find purpose in our creator. Romans 11:36 Everything comes from God and exists through God including your life is for God. God designed

SUNDAY MORNING TIDBITS-01/25/26 PASTOR RICHELLE MELVIN
SCRIPTURE: Matthew 25:14-30 TOPIC: “UNDERSTANDING WEALTH!” Last week we looked at wealth from the perspective of the world; but we sometimes forget that we are different. We as children of God we must look at wealth at a different prospective. Wealth should not be tied to your bank accounts, our jobs, property, etc. All these things are temporary. Your wealth should be tied to our spiritual riches. Your concern should be what we are depositing in our heavenly bank account s

Pastor Richelle Melvin Topic: “Re-Imaging and Re-financing” Scripture: Proverbs 23:4-5 How do you look at finances? Let’s see what does the bible say? Proverbs 23:4-5 says that there is a dark side of money. You should not worry about trying to be rich because as soon as you see the money it is gone. We have to re-imagine what wealth and riches look like! Money is not evil, it is a means to make an exchange and when you have money you can move things around and things get do

There have to be change in order to move the way that God wants you to move. Change is to make a difference in s

Pastor Richelle Melvin Scripture: Lev. 20:1-8 Topic:” Consecrated For a Purpose!” Theme for 2026: “Our Year of Consecration and Devine Purpose in His Will!” Jesus tells Moses that anyone who deals with familiar spirits, sorcery or anything other than me, you will be cut off. Live holy and righteous to God. Consecration is being set apart, dedicated, or made holy for God's specific purpose and service, separating oneself from uncleanness or the profane to be devoted to the s

Sunday Morning Tidbits for December 28, 2025 Pastor Richelle A. Melvin Scripture: John 1:15-17 Topic: “Year of Grace Multiplied!”
Scripture: John 1:15-17 Topic: “Year of Grace Multiplied!” The law was given by Moses but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. We are closing the year 2025 out where we began it. We started the year with Grace Multiplied. We can’t work to obtain Grace. Many of us received favor that we did not deserved. Grace is unmerited favor. We saw favor over and over again in our lives; we saw growth in our children and in our homes. Yes there were hard days and we had hard time

Luke 2:1-20 was read by Rylan,Zander and Olivia- They read the story of the birth of Jesus. Psalms 116:19 is Mari’s favorite scripture. Mari said that everyone needs to praise the Lord in His house.

Mari challenges all youth to praise the Lord by singing and dancing to the Lord. He states that if you can dance and sin

December 14, 2025 Sunday Morning Tidbits Pastor Dr. Richelle Melvin Scripture: Micah 6:8 Topic: “Adjusting My Focus!” Micah 6:8 tells us to do justly;love mercy and to walk humbly with God. To walk humbly means to listen to the Spirit of God and obey. This is what God requires if you. Most people do not do what God want them to do. Ego refers to a sense of exaggerated self importance. It’s all about me! It’s a need to win or do right, vanity, excessive self praise, judging; p

Sunday Morning Tidbits for 12/07/25 Pastor Dr. Richelle C. Melvin Scripture: 1 Kings 18:21 Topic:”Today’s Choice!”
“And Elijah came near all the people and said, “ How long will you go limping between two different opinions. If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” And the people did not answer him a word. How long will you be between two opinions? How long will you be hot or cold? Everyday we have to make a choice. Deut. 30:15-20 tells us that the commandments are not mysterious or far off tha you don’t understand. Choose life or death ; blessings or curses. Choose

Sunday Morning Tidbits- 11/16/25
Pastor Richelle Melvin Topic:” The Heart of A Giver!” Scripture: Matthew 6:19-21 This month starts a season of gratitude and giving. Giving is more than a financial transaction; it is a reflection of where your heart lies. Acts 20:35 says that it is more blessed to give than to receive. We should give because God himself was a giver. Giving Is a transferring of a thing to someone or something else; meaning carrying out or performing; and providing love or support in a time of

Pastor Richelle A. Melvin Scripture: I Thes. 5:16 Topic: “ An Attitude of Gratitude!” I Thessalonians 5:16 tells us to Rejoice Always! Gratitude is a practice of acknowledgment to God for the work being done across the world. Some might say that you can’t always rejoice when trouble surrounds us. You must learn to overcome discouragement. I Thes. 5:17 tells us to pray without ceasing. I Thes. 5:18 tells us that in everything give thanks for this is the will of God! Romans 8:2

Sunday Morning Tidbits for November 2, 2025- Richelle Melvin Scripture: Col. 3:15,17 Topic: “The Essence of Thanksgiving” Paul wrote to the Colossians about false teachings and some other things that were going on in the church. He told them not to mix religion with anything else. Some of us as Christians tend to focus on the wrong things. Jesus died on the cross and cleansed us from all unrighteousness! We should give thanks because you have everything you need because God
