    Have you ever had a person in your life who made you wander if he was a good influence or a bad influence? There are things that have to be weighed out to make a right judgment. Some things may not be as they seem to the casual observer. God knows.

    JEPHTHAH- "whom God sets free" No time to be idle or enveloped in a pity party. Heb. 11:32 ¶ And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: Central Reading ...read more

    Our past does not define us, God redeems us. Our mistakes do not define us, God teaches us. Our faith in God defines us, God uses us.

    All of us have them. Some of us have more than others. • There are those who are crippled by them, others can rise above them and continue to live with confidence. But all of us have them. • What am I talking about? Flaws and failures. Our imperfections and mistakes. Flaws ...read more

    The Lord's Supper is a powerful, practical reminder of the Lord, the Mission, and the People of God.

    A church had an unusual ritual every Sunday morning. Before the church sang the Doxology, they would stand up, everyone turned to the right facing a blank white wall, and they sang.

    When God Turns The Tables Around

    God can step in at anytime to change times, seasons and situations; He can arise and turn the tables around to favour His children.

    Never look down on anyone. The person you look down on today may be the person you have to run to for help tomorrow. The account of Jephthah in Judges 11:1-11 beautifully illustrates this point. Jephthah was born with a stigma. His mother was a prostitute. Even though there was a shroud of ...read more

    Overcoming The Spirit Of Rejection Series

     | 50,235 views

    Rejection can have a devastating effect upon the lives of people with scars that they will carry as they mature. In this message, we will learn how Jephthah overcame rejection and rose up to be the next Judge of Isarel.

    Rejection means to cast aside; to throw away; to put side. It can refer to a person or a thing as if not up to some standard. When you reject a person, it shows him or her that he is unacceptable, of no value, doesn't belong, unwanted, can't fit in and unloved. Rejection communicates this message ...read more

    We will learn from the life of Jephthah in the book of Judges that it is not not good to make foolish vows that we will eventually regret, but we are encouraged to deepen our commitment through godly vows made before God that we are able to fulfill.

    There was this story of a wealthy oil tycoon that one day lay on his deathbed. His pastor talked to him of God's healing power.

    Jephthah = Rejection – Victory – And Disaster - All In The One Cup - Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 6, 2022
     | 1,691 views

    Illegitimate, rejected, expelled, Jephthah became a recognised warrior. The ones who ill-treated him crawled to him for help against the Ammonites who were invading the country. There is much of human nature playing out in this account. We examine that. PART 1 of two parts.

I have put that in the message for SERMONCENTRAL as it is easier to read in text. THE INTRODUCTION – LEADERLESS IN A DISMAL TIME {{Judges 10:17-18 Then the sons of Ammon ...read more
