    What Do We Do When Tragedy Strikes?”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 2, 2017

    This section of God's Word shows us how two people responded to a tragedy. One example comes from a widow whose son died. The other comes from one of the greatest prophets in the Old Testament, Elijah.

    At some point it will likely happen to most of us. For each of us it will be different and yet the same. It will leave us with tears in our eyes and pain in our hearts. We call them tragedies—something that seems to turn our lives upside down. Because we live in a world stained by sin these ...read more

    A lot of Christian don’t like giving. Just like me, I do give to people if I have and I give my offering in church but I find it difficult paying my tithe

    I have realised that the principle of giving is a powerful spiritual law that is guaranteed!  Giving encompasses the following: 1. Giving tithes and offering 2. Giving to the needy 3. Giving to genuine pastors and ministers  4. Giving to widows and the elderly 5. Give to whoever God is leading ...read more

    A Chronicle Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on May 30, 2016
     | 8,319 views

    This sermon explores Elijah's interactions with the widow of Zarephath, and we learn that God never abandons us, faith requires obedience, and to receive a blessing I must be a blessing. Faith was the key to Elijah's ministry.

    Hebrews 11 has been called God’s “Hall of Faith.” Like the Hall of Fame in sports or other arenas of life, Hebrews 11 gives us the names and tells us, if ever so briefly, what God’s people accomplished “by faith.” We hear such profound accomplishments ...read more

    Putting Faith To The Test

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 3, 2016

    Are you willing to go where God sends you and speak and act in his name? It all boils down to a matter of trust.

    Have you ever had an occasion where you thought that your faith was being tested, especially in unusual circumstances? If so, you’re not alone. Sometimes God uses unusual circumstances to test a person’s faith. For example, in 1 Kings 17:8-24 he told Elijah to go to an unlikely ...read more

    This is part of a series of very brief messages that can be used in church newsletters for stewardship.

    10So he set out and went to Zarephath. When he came to the gate of the town, a widow was there gathering sticks; he called to her and said, ‘Bring me a little water in a vessel, so that I may drink.’ 11As she was going to bring it, he called to her and said, ‘Bring me a morsel of ...read more

    We all have a tendency to focus on what we do not have and hence what we cannot do. But the God who gave us life knows what we do not have. He is interested in what we do with what we have. Can we turn our attention to that?

    We all have heard about the prosperity gospel and none of us sitting here actually like it. Well mostly. I might want to take a look at it if I can get my hands on that BMW next week, because of something the prosperity gospel promises. Right? Jokes apart, we do realise that prosperity gospel is a ...read more

    God's Promise is always achieved through preparation, whether individually or corporately, you cannot avoid the journey if we want to get to the destination. This sermon compares Elijah's life and the steps he took to the principals of the process of God.

    Jesus said "The Kingdom of God is at hand". What does that mean? To have a Kingdom you must have a King! This sermon shows Elijah, living in faith of that Kingdom, and in recognizing that trusting in the supernatural rather than the natural.

    Easter is four Sundays away. As we begin to focus on what it represents, I wanted to begin by looking at the resurrections that preceded Jesus'. There were actually five instances of people coming back from the dead before it happened to Jesus.

    Elijah’s brook dried up. Why did the Lord allow this to happen? To teach him to trust in God and not in the brook. Remember, God is our refuge (our supply as well as the supplier), a very present help in time of trouble.

    It was necessary that the widow abandon her last resources by faith before the Living God would assume full responsibility and full control over her situation. The same is true of us. We must surrender all to gain Jesus!

    We pick up with our man Elijah leaving the brook Cherith because it dried up. The ravens quit bringing him food and the famine has caught up with the creek that God had parked Elijah beside.

    You can determine to pay the price no matter how high the cost seems to be. Far too often we cry out to the Lord to deliver us out of the test that He intends to walk us through it.

    2 Zarephath was quite a distance from Cherith. • It was eight miles south of Zidon. • It was thirteen miles north of Tyre. • It was eighty miles north of Samaria. • All summed up it was about one hundred miles for Elijah to travel. a He had to walk it out. Twenty miles ...read more
