    Iron, That Floats—even Swims.

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 7, 2021

     | 5,102 views

    Again ax-heads don't float. Or do they? Maybe it’s time to pray a ridiculous prayer! The Bible say’s, “The iron did swim!” This ranks as one of my favorite miracles in the scripture for a couple reasons. First, this isn't a life or death situation. It's just a borrowed ax head.

    Iron, That Floats—Even Swims. 2 Kings 6:1-7NLT Whenever I counsel people who are wrestling with the will of God. I remind them of a simple truth: “God wants you to get where God wants you to go, more than you want to get where God wants you to go.” I’ll read it once more—it should relieve you from ...read more

    Every believer needs to know that there is an invisible war raging around you each day and night. The Bible says it’s a spiritual war between good = God and His army and Evil = Satan and his demons.

    The Boy’s Sneeze And The Mother’s Joy (October 9, 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 6, 2022
     | 2,680 views

    Today we are looking at how God works beyond our ability to understand! In our scripture for today, we hear about a childless family who had a child and later lost that child until God showed up and showed out and brought that child back to life!

    THE BOY’S SNEEZE AND THE MOTHER’S JOY (October 9, 2022) Text: 2 Kings 4:18 -21, 2 Kings 4:28 – 37 2 Kings 4:18-37 When the child was older, he went out one day to his father among the reapers. (19) He complained to his father, "Oh, my head, my head!" The father said to his ...read more

    Healing From Leprosy And Sin

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 7, 2022

    Just as leprosy could and did kill in the time of Christ, so sin kills the life of the soul in every age of man.

    Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Course 2022 What was the worst part of leprosy in the days of Christ and even millennia before and after? I believe that the skin condition and other physical ailments were horrible experiences, as well as knowing there was no human cure. But the worst part seems to be the ...read more

    Elisha has succeeded Elijah as a prophet to the Northern Kingdom (2 Kings 2: I - I 8). He has by now already prophesied and God has performed a few miracles through him. But now we will see something peculiar, he makes an axe head float.

    This passage of Scripture tells the story of how Elisha captures an army.

    Verses 8-23 tell the story of how Elisha captures an army. But what I want us to look at are verses 15-17. Elisha's servant had woken up early and saw the Syrian army encompassed about them. We can sense the fear in his voice as he goes to tell Elisha what he has seen. The devil does the same ...read more

    Elijah taken up in a whirlwind - not a chariot of fire as commonly taught

    2 Kings 2. 1-14 I am sure we all know a few lines of “Swing low sweet chariot, coming for to take me home…” An African-American spiritual. The date of composition is unknown. Taken now by English rugby fans, though the wheels of that chariot keep coming off, but that is for another day. The ...read more

    The story of Elisha and the widow with the pot of oil teaches us a lot about what Jesus did for us and what we are now called upon to do for the Kingdom of God. God wants to fill as many empty vessels as will come to him.

    Empty Vessels Sunday, October 30, 2022 – 10 am In the prophetic times which we live we see so much of the fulfillment of God’s Word all around us. The Spirit of God is moving in the earth to find as many empty vessels as He can that will be willing to be filled with the Oil of Gladness and will ...read more

    Barley harvest--springtime--may not be the time when people think about Thanksgiving Day meals. During Elisha's day, a pair of miracles made a small meal into a real feast!

    There is a famine of the Word of God in our country and the people are hungry for the truth. Amos 8:11 “Look! The days are coming” declares the Lord God, “when I will send a famine throughout the land— not a famine of food or a thirst for water— but rather a famine of hearing the words of the Lord.

    2 Kings 4:38-41 (NKJV) Serve It Again October 03, 2010 We begin today with Elisha returning to Gilgal. Returning to his holy place where he was taught by his father in ministry Elijah. Returning to his element, among the sons of the prophets, teaching them, and, now as their father in ministry, ...read more

    How severely should we deal with sin? Is it possible to lead a holy life? Why should we do so? You will find answers to all of these questions and more in this sermon.

    We read in Mark 9:43-47, "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than, having your two hands, to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, [where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.]” If your foot causes you to stumble, ...read more

    Elijah Series

    Elijah was a mighty man of God. He stood like a stone wall against idolatry, and he was not afraid to speak truth to power or tell the people what they needed to hear.

    February 11, 2023 The bible tells us Elijah was from the town of Tishbe, but we don’t anything about his background or who his parents were. His name means, “Yahweh is my God,” and he certainly lived up to his name, standing in sharp contrast against the idolatry of the day. His primary ...read more

    The gifts of God are irrevocable, so is the anointing of God. 1 John 2:27 says, “But as for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you;” But we will never be able to serve the Lord in an effective manner with a broken tool! God can help us to recover what has fallen.

    II King 6:1-7 (NKJV) Recovery is in Reach February 12, 2023 Setting: The school of the prophets had grown to the point that they needed a new place. As they are in the process of cutting down trees to build their new school, one of the ministers loses his ax head in the Jordan River. He becomes ...read more

    The blessing one woman conferred upon God's Prophet was returned to her in the form of a rich blessing.

    “One day Elisha went on to Shunem, where a wealthy woman lived, who urged him to eat some food. So whenever he passed that way, he would turn in there to eat food.
