  • God Demands Complete Obedience

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022
     | 2,057 views

    God has given us different talents because God has different jobs for each of us to do.

    Most of us understand that, but what many do not seem to understand is what God has called them to do and equipped them to do, HE EXPECTS THEM TO DO! Our desire should be as Christ's. He said in John 4:34, "...My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work." ...read more

  • Goliath Of Gath Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 19, 2022
     | 4,153 views

    Some of the most popular and enduring stories involve an underdog who overcomes tremendous obstacles and secures victory against the odds. Arguably the most famous of such stories is the unlikely triumph of David—the young Israelite shepherd—against the battle-hardened Philistine.

    Tom lowe 3/17/2022 bDavid and Goliath Goliath is a character in the biblical Book of Samuel, described as a Philistine giant defeated by the young David in single combat. The story signified Saul's unfitness to rule since Saul himself should have fought for Israel. Scholars today believe that ...read more

  • Trust And Obey(1 Of 2)

     | 3,343 views

    The Rev. Billy Graham tells of a time early in his ministry when he arrived in a small town to preach a sermon. Desiring to mail a letter, he asked a young boy where the post office was.

    When the boy had told him, Dr. Graham thanked him and said, "If you'll come to the Church meeting this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to Heaven." The boy said to Dr. Graham, I do not think I'll be there. If you do not know the way to the post office, how are ...read more

  • Life Is One Big Test

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,487 views

    Someone said, “Life is a test”. Life is one big university that is in session 365 days a year.

    I do not know about you, but I have never enjoyed taking a test. Now I can remember when I was in college. It seemed as if some of my classmates enjoyed taking a test because it gave them a chance to show off how smart they were. But I never had a lot to show off, so I never enjoyed taking a ...read more

  • How To Get Rid Of The Giants In Your Life

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 1,921 views

    This passage of scripture has many surprises, but we want to look especially at two of them; ONE GOOD SURPRISE and ONE BAD SURPRISE

    Illus: This passage reminds me of the story of the little mother of seven children. She was leaving to go to a surprise party, and all seven of them wanted to go with her. One asked, "Mom, can we go with you?" She said, "No, it is a surprise party." One of the little ones ...read more

  • How King David Overcame Discouragement

     | 7,249 views

    A preacher who is nationally known made a statement before thousands of Christians. He said, “I never get discouraged!”

    Now listen, I do not wish to be unkind, but I truly believe this man is being less than truthful to the thousands of people he was addressing. WHY DON’T I BELIEVE HIM? Some of the greatest men who ever walked on this earth have become discouraged from time to time. For example, the Bible reveals ...read more

  • God Looks On The Heart

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,597 views

    When Samuel grew old, and Israel looked around and saw other nations had kings, they decided they wanted one also.

    Looking around and wanting something that someone else has can get us into lots of trouble. Illus: A man saw other men with their good looking wives, and decided he wanted a wife. One day, he walked into the restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him, and as he sat there, the waitress came ...read more

  • Not All Is Lost

    Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Mar 25, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,993 views

    I was invited to minister at a conference this weekend. The Theme is, "NOT ALL IS LOST." I wondered why they phrased it that way, and why not "All is Not Lost,"

    But when I continued to meditate on this I understood that this is what the Holyspirit wanted us to focus on. NOT ALL IS LOST! Do not rephrase or rearrange the sentence but pause, reflect and let it sink in NOT ALL IS LOST! Loss is one of the most devastating issues with no rules or plans. It ...read more

  • Give Us A King

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,933 views

    This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.

    As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches? Do churches think in a Christ-centered manner, or do they think in a worldly manner? What I mean is this: Are churches today ...read more

  • Defeating Discouragement

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,001 views

    A nationally known preacher told a group of men at a preacher’s conference that HE HAD NEVER BEEN DISCOURAGED A DAY OF HIS LIFE!

    Listen, he lost all credibility with many of the preachers there, because that just sounded like it could not be true. Everyone has to battle some degree of discouragement at some time in life; I MEAN EVERYONE! The Bible tells us that there was none greater born among women than John the Baptist, ...read more

    David encouraged himself in the LORD his God. Sometimes we have to do the same.

    Disgusted With Discouragement! I. OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Fannie Lou Hamer was a leader of the Freedom Democratic party during the Jim Crow era. She and her family had endured the horrors and difficulties of living in the South while black in that time. Mrs. Hamer was born October 6, 1917, in ...read more

  • Your Heart Condition Before God Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 9, 2022
     | 2,980 views

    It is your heart that determines your usability. Maybe you are not the obvious choice for some position. The lesser known man who has the heart of God prevailed in the case of David. God’s principle remains the same.

    When God looks at you He does not see your height or weight or any warts or blemishes. God sees your heart and He sees you for your heart. How pure is your heart before God? This is the story of the anointing of David, the king of Israel. The setting begins with King Saul. Saul took leadership ...read more
