    God wants us to turn to him in everything.

    - I love the true story of a small town in Kentucky which had two churches and a bar owned by a devout and well known atheist. It seems that one night the people from the two churches called a special prayer meeting and spent the whole night praying that the bar would close down. Well, lo and ...read more

    Idolatry, in any form, carries a very high price tag. That’s why we need to be aware of the futility of idolatry.

    "The High Price Of Idolatry" [2 Kings 1:1-18] Context: 1 Kings 22:40; 51-53. Introduction: We were created to worship and serve God. When we fail to worship Him in spirit and in truth, we fill that vacuum with something else. We may not bow down to images of wood and stone, but we idolize ...read more

    Don’t play with the fire of God. It will either consume you or purify you, depending on where your heart is. Playing with fire is a very dangerous thing.

    Playing with Fire By Pastor Jim May II Kings 1:1-18 “Held by Jehovah”, that was his name as translated from Hebrew to English, “Held by Jehovah”. Now that sounds like a pretty good name to have provided you live up to your name. But the king in our message tonight did not live up to his name, ...read more

    King Ahaziah learns the hard way that seeking help from any other god than the Living God is not a good idea. We must put our trust in the Lord alone, and we must never seek help from occult sources or any other source.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a frog who went to see a fortune-teller to learn about his future. 1. Gazing into her crystal ball, the fortune teller said to the frog, “You are going to meet a beautiful young woman. From the moment she sets eyes on you she will have an insatiable ...read more

    Elijah confronts not only the king but his army as well.

    A young boy came home from Sunday school one day and his father asked what they were teaching about in class. He said it was all about Israel crossing the Red Sea.

    God cares enough for King Ahaziah to step in and show Himself real and reminding him that there is only one true God and He is in Israel.

We saw that when King Ahab died in the battlefield. • 1 Kings 22:51-53 51Ahaziah son of Ahab became king of Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and ...read more

    Elijah told the messengers that the king would die because he did not consult God about his injuries and whether it would result in death, instead of trying to consulting a false god! In other words there are consequences to sin!!

    2 King 1:1-Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab. 2-Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria, and was injured; so he sent messengers and said to them, “Go, inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, ...read more

    We cannot afford to be indifferent about God...there are consequences in this life and in the life-to-come.

    When I served with the Army’s Air Defense Artillery--both as an instructor at their Branch School, and as a Brigade Chaplain--I used to joke about my role in Air Defense by offering to arrange for fire from Heaven! So you might say this is a fire-and-brimstone sermon! King Ahaziah assumed ...read more

    hearing the warning in a time that has been in unrest is to make wise decisions that lead us toward a stronger not weaker relationship with the Lord.

    Hear the warning 2 Kings 1:1-18 Good Morning This week we remember 911- 19 years ago- Where does time go?

    If I Am A Man Of God

     | 13,335 views

    I suppose the term "man of God" means different things to different people. However, we have the account of an individual who was called a "man of God" and commanded to respond to a king's command. Because he was a man of God, certain characteristics marked his life.

    “After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel. “Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, and lay sick; so he sent messengers, telling them, ‘Go, inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this sickness.’ But the angel of the LORD ...read more
