    A Dividing Peace

    Contributed by James May on Dec 17, 2003
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,596 views

    The Prince of Peace was born in Bethlehem but his birth didn’t bring the peace this world longs for. Instead, he brought a sword. The peace that Jesus offers is a peace with God.

    A DIVIDING PEACE Luke 2:13-14, "And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." One of the best things about Christmas has always been that people were kinder and more generous ...read more

    The Weapon God Supplies Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 8, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,478 views

    The words of the Word are the sword God has given to each Christian to defend the territory assigned. We must learn the Word and employ the Word, if we will successfully resist the evil one.

    “Take … the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” God’s Word is the sole weapon provided to His people to enable them to fulfil His charge to stand firm on the ground that He won through sacrifice. Whenever we think of the Bible, we seldom think of it in militaristic terms. However, ...read more

    Powerful Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Sep 10, 2018
     | 7,895 views

    we tend to focus too much on the meek and mild Jesus and not enough on the glorified Christ with His sword on His side, marching on boldly because of truth and righteousness … mighty to save.

    You want to talk about power? In August of 1883, a volcano on the Island of Krakatoa erupted. The initial blast sent a cloud of gas and debris 15 miles into the atmosphere. On the morning of August 27th, four tremendous explosions were heard 3,000 miles away. That would be like us hearing Mount ...read more

    The Spiritual Warrior’s Divine Armor - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Nov 21, 2010
    based on 24 ratings
     | 18,721 views

    Christ has forged an armor that renders its wearer perfectly safe against all spiritual warfare hurled against us. Christ used it when He was led out into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. It was thoroughly tested on Christ so that all who put it

    EPHESIANS 6: 16-18 THE SPIRITUAL WARRIOR’S DIVINE ARMOR - Part II [Isaiah 59:15b-17 / 2 Samuel 22:31-43] A young football coach was hired as a scout for his college.

    The Whole Armor Of God Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 21, 2022
     | 5,521 views

    Our enemy is a spiritual power. Our enemy the devil, is described as spiritual forces in heavenly places. Paul wants the believers in Ephesus to know that our enemy is the devil. There may be earthy leaders who oppose the gospel.

    Living the Christian life is like standing on a battlefield. There is a drastic difference between peacetime and wartime. In the original Perspectives Books Ralph Winter uses the illustration of the Queen Mary ship to illustrate this. Here is his illustration: The Queen Mary, lying in repose in ...read more

    God Is For Us, So The Losers Are The Winners

     | 3,708 views

    God is FOR us, not AGAINST us. How do we KNOW this? What does this mean for us?

    2.21.21 Romans 8:31–39 31 What then will we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 Indeed, he who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also graciously give us all things along with him? 33 Who will bring an accusation against God’s ...read more

    The horse imagery is probably related to the vision described in Zechariah 1:7-17. Horses represent God’s activity on earth, the forces He uses to accomplish His divine purposes.

    Can You Handle It?

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Aug 5, 2025
     | 299 views

    How comforting is it to tell someone whose loved one has died and they are overwhelmed with grief, “God won't give you any more than you can handle.” But some will say, isn't that what scripture says?

    Alba 8-3-2025 CAN YOU HANDLE IT? I Corinthians 10:12-13 There was a U.S. ship captain who had a regular route from California to Columbia. He had delivered his shipment to Columbia and was about to embark for the U.S. when he was approached by the drug cartel. They wanted him to carry a small ...read more

    Joshua was told to "take his shoes off," he was standing on holy ground. Once again, God stands with a drawn sword, offering leadership. Will America bow down to the God of the Bible?

    Text: Joshua 5:13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; ...read more

    David & Goliath - The Battle Is The Lord's Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Apr 3, 2003
    based on 145 ratings
     | 83,043 views

    God is the one who saves, not by sword or spear, but by his power, by his word proclaimed in the gospel, by his Spirit who fills each one of us just as he filled David.

    I guess this would be one of the best known, if not THE best known story in the Bible. In fact it’s so well known that David has become a metaphor for the victorious underdog. He’s the archetypal cutter down of tall poppies. The one who can overcome the greatest odds to win through to victory. But ...read more

    Imagine for a moment you are starving, desperate, surrounded by enemies, with no hope in sight. Then suddenly—without lifting a sword—you find yourself in a camp overflowing with food, treasure, and victory already won.

    Go! And Broadcast Blessing - 2 Kings 7:9 2 Kings 7:9 (NLT): “Finally, they said to each other, ‘This is not right. This is a day of good news, and we aren’t sharing it with anyone!

    Jesus tongue is a sword. His words are God’s words and they have power to heal or destroy. How do we handle hearing harsh words from heaven’s holy herald?

    Read or quote Mark 7. Does God’s word ever say something that bothers you? I dare say, if you have never had that experience, you must not be reading your Bible much! The word of God comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable, does it not? God told Jeremiah, (23:29) "Is not My word ...read more
