    Sometimes God says no. When you are weakened by His answer, He will strengthen you by His grace.

    The late Chuck Colson of Watergate fame shared his experience when God said NO. The great paradox [of my life] is that every time I walk into a prison and see the faces of men or women who have been transformed by the power of the living God, I realize that the thing God has chosen to use in my ...read more

    Now how about us? Do we know how to pray? Well, of course we do! Or do we? For example, how do we pray for Christians who are going through difficulties in life?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: 2 Corinthians 12:7-10; Luke 22:42; Romans 8:28 ILL. I heard a story recently about a missionary in Africa, named William Chalmers, who was approached by two tribal chieftains. ...read more

    No one … including you … gets to see God’s power, God’s grace, God’s strength in theirs lives when we’re just sailing along … but we really see it and experience it when we’re going through difficult times … and the world can see it to!

    “So … Satan … where ya been?” “As if You didn’t know, LORD … I’ve been here and there … to and fro … looking about … You know.” “And while you were ‘looking about,’ did you happen to notice my faithful servant … Job?” “Oh, yeah …” “Good man, that Job … no one like him.

    hang on to God when things don't change

    Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong .

    The Heart Of God Series

    We base so much of our lives on our feelings about God, and wonder if God cares, does He have a heart for me. This message begins to look at that issue in our lives.

    BELIEVING and not BELIEVING The Heart of God May 21, 2017 We're in the final part of a four-part series I called Believing and not Believing. Our focus has been to look at obstacles, beliefs which are incorrect which ultimately lead us away from believing in God, even while we do believe. We’ve ...read more

    GRACE SUFFICIENT. 2 Corinthians 12:2-10.

    Thorns And Grace (July 2012).

    Perhaps one of the most intriguing passages of scripture is that of Paul's mention of the "thorn in his flesh." Paul expounded upon his metaphor of the thorn as he said that it was something that kept his pride in check.

    THORNS AND GRACE 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 I remember going barefoot as a ten year old kid, when I was living in Aiken as a preacher’s kid. As I was going barefoot, I wound up stepping on a board that had three nails in it. The pain got my attention and definitely ...read more

    When the rich man in hell begged for Lazarus to be sent back to warn his family about avoiding his fate, Abraham reminded him that they had the Scriptures. Nothing else has ever been used of the LORD other than His Word to convict the sinner.

    Whenever a real man of God stands behind the pulpit and preaches the Word of God (2 Timothy 4:1-5), he is to hold nothing back and never compromise the Scriptures for the sake of feeling, alleged offense, or cultural beliefs. No preacher worth his sacred calling should ever water down the power ...read more

    When God Says No

    Contributed by Brad Stone on Sep 19, 2020
     | 6,973 views

    We never like to accept a "No" answer in our life, especially in prayer, but the fact is that there are times God replies to us with a firm No because He wants to reveal to us a deeper plan.

    When we were children, we never liked hearing the word 'No' when we ask our parents for something. We felt as though our every wish should be granted. If you say otherwise, we can pray later. Frankly, as adults, we feel the same way. We do not like to be told no in regards to ...read more

    Paul had a serious illness. He did not mention what it was. He prayed for healing, but God decided not to heal him. So, what did he do? Did he get upset, resentful, or discouraged? No! Through him, we must learn these important lessons on gradual healing.

    The Lord Jesus promised us that His grace would be sufficient to sustain us, no matter what difficulties we encounter. This grace can flow from Him because He suffered worse than any human. He feels what we feel!
