    David possesses all these giftings, yet he is disregarded in his own family. His father and brothers do not value him much, but God does. Our worth is not determined by what others think of us but what God thinks of us.

    Only God sees the genuine qualities on the inside of each of us. When looking for a partner whether in business or relationships, desire God's discernment. Never choose based on sight. In spite of David's hidden qualities, he is rejected in his own house.

    For a long time, many skeptics and atheists have stated that David is a mythical character invented by the Jews. But recent archaeological discoveries have proven otherwise. My trip to Israel in January 2016 brought new revelations. David is God's Man.

    How God uses the least of people for His purposes

    TITLE: From Nobody to Nobility TEXT: 1 Samuel 16:1-13 INTRO: The leader of a nation has an awesome responsibility. He can unite or divide the people. He can build up or tear down the nation.

    We put a lot of priority into the way we look, but God sees on the inside. God values character over appearance, and can rightly help us do the same as we trust him.

    1 Samuel 16:6-13 Judging Character In our western society, we truly value outward appearances. People in America spend thousands and thousands of dollars on face lifts, behind lifts, and everything in between.

    The kind of heart God wants

    INTRODUCTION: If God were to look at your heart today, what would He see? OR maybe, the better question is, would your heart attract God? Would He even want to take a glimpse of your heart? Or will He be repulsed? “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from ...read more

    What characterizes a heart that is fully given to God?

    In 1 Samuel 8, we are told how the people of Israel asked for a king to lead them. When they made this request of Samuel he went to the Lord, and the Lord told him that they were not rejecting Samuel, but they were rejecting God from being king over them. Samuel was told to tell the people what the ...read more

    Sometimes we cannot tell by looking at a person whether or not they love Jesus. In fact, sometimes, everything that we see says do are but their heart is still dirty with sin and has not been forgiven.

    We need to decide what we are going to be passionate about in life. David was passionate for the Lord. The truth is you are passionate about something! The Bible encourages us to be passionate for Jesus like David was!

    Inside Out Means Looking Pass Me Just So You Can Know Me

    Contributed by Preacher Fo Real on Feb 20, 2014
     | 4,966 views

    Viewing People From The Inside Out Is Looking Pass The Outside So You Can Truly Know Them. It Is The Way God Sees Us And The Only Way We Should View Ourselves And Others In The World.

    The last few years of the 1960's were some of the most turbulent times for the African-American community. However, as a lad lost inside the safe and carefree world of my infancy, I did not have a clue the world saw me as inferior to the Caucasian race. I did not own this widely held notion because ...read more

    Two things we need most are found in Jesus: real security and deep satisfaction.

    King Saul was a major disappointment. As you know, he was the first king of Israel, and he was everything you would want a king to be. When we first meet him in the pages of Scripture, we are told that he was “a handsome young man.” In fact, “there was not a man among the people ...read more

    what does God look at first when he looks at us?

    We have been learning form a man named Saul, chosen by God to be king of Israel, but because of his arrogance and disobedience to God, Saul was rejected by God. Today, in preparation for our worship with water baptisms, we will note the difference on how man sees things in comparison to God. Open ...read more
