    The God Who Comforts

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 25, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,376 views

    God spoke to the people in exile through Isaiah. In the midst of their darkness, they heard the voice of grace, the voice of hope and the voice of truth.

    The book of Isaiah is a remarkably long book, divided into two parts. • The first 39 chapters talk about condemnation, God’s judgement for the sin of Israel. The people had abandoned God. • The last 27 chapters talk about redemption, God’s forgiveness for the people, and the deliverance by a ...read more

    Drifting Away From God

     | 15,083 views

    We drift away from God when we began to doubt God’s good intentions and believe that we need something more to be happy.

    [I’ve taken some pointers in this sermon from Chapter 5 ’Drifting Away from God’ in Joseph Stowell’s book RADICAL RELIANCE.] You see, God did not hide from us. Man was the first to hide from God. • Man did not seek God. It was God who first sought man out. DRIFTING AWAY Tom cannot swim but ...read more

    The Spirit Of The Chicken

    The Lord’s care is compared to that of mother hen for her young chickens when they are in danger. It is the wonder of wonders that sometimes people choose to abandon the cover of the wings of the Almighty.

    THE SPIRIT OF THE CHICKEN Dr. D. K. Olukoya Mathew 23:37-38 says, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not. ...read more

    When The Strong Feel Weak: God’s Response To Discouraged Servants Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 15, 2025
     | 160 views

    1 Kings 19 reminds us that even spiritual giants can feel overwhelmed. Elijah’s moment of fear and frustration did not end his ministry—it became a turning point. God does not abandon His servants when they feel weak; instead, He feeds, speaks, reassures, and sends them again.

    WHEN THE STRONG FEEL WEAK: GOD’S RESPONSE TO DISCOURAGED SERVANTS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Kings 19:1-21 Supporting Texts: Isaiah 40:29-31; 2 Corinthians 4:7-9; Psalm 34:18; Hebrews 4:15-16; Matthew 11:28-30 INTRODUCTION: After the fiery confrontation at Mount Carmel and the dramatic ...read more

    When God created man he didn’t create him from a distance, he created man different that anything else he created. That creation was a illustration about how he wanted man different that any other living thing. In the Garden God already knew what happen

    Draw Near to God... Intimacy With God April 7, 2002 By Brad Dyrness In the Book of Genesis there is the story of God making man. Gen 2:7 . 7And the LORD God formed a man’s body from the dust of the ground and breathed into it the breath of life. And the man became a living person. God took a ...read more

     | 6,099 views

    Samson was reckless. He became arrogant in his self pursuits always assuming that God would bless him because he was special. He virtually abandoned his spiritual life over the course of 20 years then was shocked that God was gone. In the end, he lost

    Last week we learned that Samson was special. Even before he was born God had put a call on his life and all Samson had to do was walk into his calling. His calling was clear, God wanted to use Samson to move the Israelites out of their complacency because they were losing their identity. They ...read more

    Do you ever try to “help God out”? Or are you content even in an uncomfortable situation to trust Him?

    The flow of the story is rather simple: Jacob wants to go home, but instead remains on with uncle Laban and gets rich in the mean time. The passage carries with it allot of presuppositions; starting with the obvious strain between Jacob and Laban and continuing in Jacob’s alternating faithfulness ...read more

    Pharaoh and the Egyptian people could no longer endure this plague of flies. From the ancient history of such creatures being so bothersome, we know that people have been obliged to abandon their homes and seek new ones.

    Pharaoh Inclines To Let The People Go But Yet Is Hardened. Ex. 8:25-32 Ex. 8:25-32 25Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Go, sacrifice to your God here in the land." 26But, Moses said, "That would not be right. The sacrifices we offer the LORD our God would be ...read more

    God is faithful even if events don’t turn out as we may want it to or think they should. God will never deny His own character or His divine plan to grant our request or just to make us happy. 

    The Faithfulness of God. By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - It is amazing when God speaks.

    A Chronicle Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on May 30, 2016
     | 8,485 views

    This sermon explores Elijah's interactions with the widow of Zarephath, and we learn that God never abandons us, faith requires obedience, and to receive a blessing I must be a blessing. Faith was the key to Elijah's ministry.

    Hebrews 11 has been called God’s “Hall of Faith.” Like the Hall of Fame in sports or other arenas of life, Hebrews 11 gives us the names and tells us, if ever so briefly, what God’s people accomplished “by faith.” We hear such profound accomplishments ...read more

    Let us not abandon the theology that God and this culture is on a collision course. Hear the words of the prophet and make ready!

    Words of Warning – Series from Joel “Judgment Is Coming” Joel 1:1-15 * One of the forgotten, if not dismissed, truths from God’s word is that this world is on a collision course with Almighty God (Elohim).
