    There is always a thorn that is sand paper that rubs us wrong. Paul tells us how we can deal with them in our lives.

    The Thorn in the flesh 2 Cor. 12:1-10 Good Morning everyone…Let’s pray Prayer- Father, in the powerful name of Jesus, we come this morning and we are wanting you to do something fresh and new!

    Sometimes the greatest gifts God gives us are the weaknesses we would never choose for ourselves.

    INTRO If we took an inventory of everything that we say in our prayers, we would likely find that the vast majority of our prayers fall into one of two simple prayers. The first category is the “Gimmie” prayer. You know the “gimmie” prayer well. “Lord, gimme that parking spot right up front. And ...read more

    When you feel disrespect, boast about the way God has honored you, humbled you, and helped you in your weakness.

    In 1969, in a science lab in New Jersey, Canadian physicist Willard Boyle and his colleagues invented the concept of an electronic eye.

    The belief that human beings have an eternal spirit and that it will return to a place in the afterlife known as Heaven or Hell are from Judeo-Christian teachings found in the Bible.

    "Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living." (Genesis 2:7 NIV) The word “breathed” (Heb: ‘ruwach”) means wind or spirit. "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you ...read more

    Paul’s life example ought to give us incredible encouragement to God’s power. We must submit under the GRACE of Christ before we can ever really live and must see ourselves for who we are before we can experience freedom.

    Experiencing Grace 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 Introduction - This morning, I’d like to discuss a word that is used often in church - It is a word that has several meanings to several, but the same beginnings - Jesus suffered and died to bring this entire creation the GRACE of God - For the ...read more

    Did you know “thorns” are mentioned 57 times in the Bible. Two of the most famous references are here and Jesus’ crown of thorns. A thorn is considered a curse of the ground, yet it is from a thorn bush we pick our most beautiful roses.

    This is Part 14 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” in the “Sermon on the Mount.” This part deals with Jesus' assurance - Ask, seek, and knock; the narrow gate; false prophets; and building on the rock.

    Praying With Good King Hezekiah

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 22, 2021

    Looking back on the last few months, do you feel like you’ve been praying more, or is it less? Is this a practice that has been strengthened with you, or has it struggled? Has the seeking become less diligent, or the knocking not so confident? A praying Christian is a living Christian!

    In Luke 11:9 Jesus says these words to us, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Simple commands, yet astonishing. For his words reveal the great privilege that we have when we pray. This is the heavenly power that we access whenever we ...read more

    Message15 in an expositional series through Paul's "second" letter to the church in the ancient Greek city of Corinth where he defends his apostleship and corrects serious doctrinal errors within this young church.

    This week I learned about an interesting paradox called The Mother’s Paradox. Mothers, see if you can relate to any of these ideas: • Motherhood is a complete sacrifice of alone time, but it can be so lonely • In Motherhood, the days are long but the years are short • Motherhood is hilarious, but ...read more
