    Do We Need To Wake Up Our Spiritual Life?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 26, 2023
     | 1,289 views

    Have we fallen asleep spiritually? Is God calling us to wake up? If so, what are we to do? Can we see any similarities with our Scripture and Christians today?

    Our passage of Scripture finds Samuel and Eli to be a little older, but Samuel is still referred to as a boy. Samuel hears his name called while he is sleeping in the temple just before dawn. He quickly approaches Eli, who tells him to return to bed. Samuel is informed by Eli that it is the Lord ...read more

    How To Keep Your Vision Alive

    Contributed by Benjamin Suulola on Mar 13, 2023
     | 4,226 views

    It takes a God-like vision to make positive difference, bring transformation and to impact our generation for the Lord. But having a God-given vision is not important as being able to keep the vision alive.

    Vision is simply the ability to see what God is doing and the role apportioned to you in bringing it to reality. Your God-given vision is one of the most important reasons for your living. When there is no vision of God to be accomplished with one's life, the purpose of living becomes ...read more

    How often does God speak, and we walk by distracted? The problem is not divine silence. The problem is human busyness.

    Go! And Listen: When God Speaks, Do You Listen? INTRODUCTION When God speaks… do you listen? Most people hear noise every day, but very few actually listen.

    Samuel was the last Judge of Israel. He serves as a link between the time of the Judges and the Monarchy, so our story begins with him.
