    Can God Use Me?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 23, 2025
     | 278 views

    God’s work does not depend on perfect people or ideal conditions, but on ordinary men and women who listen and respond faithfully when He speaks, even in uncertain times.

    There is a question that lives quietly beneath a great deal of spiritual activity. It rarely gets announced. It doesn’t usually show up in public prayer. It hides behind busyness, behind service, behind long familiarity with faith. Can God use me? Not “Does God exist?” Not “Is the Bible ...read more

    The Year Of Alignment Not Struggle

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Dec 24, 2025
     | 934 views

    This is not the year of endless struggle. This is the year of alignment. God is calling His people into position, order, and flow.

    THE YEAR OF ALIGNMENT NOT STRUGGLE INTRODUCTION Many believers have been taught that the Christian life must always be hard, exhausting, and full of endless battles. While spiritual warfare is real, constant struggle is not God’s design for His children. God never intended His people to live in ...read more

    A New Era Begins In Israel Series

    Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Dec 25, 2025
     | 158 views

    The government of Israel was administered in the name and authority of God – Israel was a Theocracy and God was their king. His earthly representatives, from Moses to Samuel, had no authority of their own. Their job was to uphold and enforce the Laws of God before the people.

    December 27, 2025 Samuel was unique. He was judge, prophet and priest and under his wise control the nation prospered. Eventually, however, he was forced to share the responsibilities of government and he chose his 2 sons – Joel and Abijah – to assist him. He appointed them judges and sent ...read more

    I want to take you back in time to a scene of dread and despair. The Israelites and the Philistines are facing off in the Valley of Elah. For forty days, a giant named Goliath has been walking out, challenging the Israelites to a one-on-one battle.

    Introduction I want to take you back in time to a scene of dread and despair. The Israelites and the Philistines are facing off in the Valley of Elah.

     | 221 views

    In real daily life we face many IRRITATIONS and FRUSTRATIONS. These obstacles are opportunities to release miracles. Goliath was David's opportunity to arise.

    Is There Not A Cause?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 356 views

    God’s word is never idle—it creates purpose and calls for response. Like David, we are not defined by the roles others assign us, but by the word God has spoken over our lives. When that word becomes a cause, faith moves from observation to obedience.

    As David stood in the Valley of Elah, the battle between Israel and the Philistines was nearing a breaking point. For forty days, the giant Goliath had stepped forward to issue his challenge, defying the armies of the living God. And for forty days, no one answered him. The silence was not caused ...read more

    Contributed by Kevin Broyhill on Sep 24, 2024
     | 951 views

    Fear is a giant that every believer will face, but as overcomers, we are called to face our giants, knowing that through God's strength, we can triumph. David confronted his fears and defeated Goliath, learning how we, too, can slay the giant of fear in our lives.

    Slaying the Giant of Fear! 1Samuel 17:1-11 Introduction: Israel had Giant Problems! Giant of Fear – Goliath!

    Samuel tuned in to God at age 12! When everyone else tuned Him out because in those days everyone was doing was right in their own eyes!

    Never seen before in 2024! We have learned in the last few weeks that we could say never heard before in 2024 – which is about hearing the voice of God in a day when few hear it or even listen to it! Our time is no different than in Samuels young years and in his later years. Thesis: Samuel ...read more

    Samuel lived an exemplary life for God and for Israel, but they rejected his leadership for a king and blamed it on his wayward sons! Samuel reveals his leadership pain in chapter 12 and reveals to them what God revealed to him that they are rejecting God not Him.

    How To Be A Servant After God’s Own Heart Series

     | 2,092 views

    Why was David a man after God's own heart... but Saul wasn't? And what can that tell me about how I can be a man after God's own heart?

    I never thought about it before, but our culture talks a lot about our HEARTS. For example: If we want to have an intimate and personal talk with someone, we say that we want to have a “heart-to-heart”. If we’ve had a really good day, we might say that we are feeling “Lighthearted.” If we know ...read more
