    Don't Be An April Fool

    based on 16 ratings
     | 8,366 views

    God wants the repentant sinner to give his/her life to him. This message preachers to the people of God encouraging them not to be like those who procrastinated as illustrated in Jesus’s great parable on the wise and the foolish.

    (25:1) "The kingdom of heaven is likened unto ten virgins, which took there lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom". (25:2) "And five of them were wise, and five were foolish." (25:3) "They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them. (25:4) "But the wise took oil in ...read more

    God Longs To Embrace You

     | 6,897 views

    Jesus longs to embrace you and tuck you under his wings to save and protect you. And that we should come to Him willingly like a chick that will find comfort and warmth beneath the wings of a mother hen.

    Jesus was apparently in Herod’s territory. Some Pharisees came and threatened him, “Leave and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you.” Herod (Antipas) was the ruler of Galilee and Perea. He was the son of Herod the Great. (v.31) Jesus was not moved by the threat. He replied, “You go tell ...read more

    Seeing And Hearing Again

    Contributed by Wayne Cordeiro on May 16, 2013
     | 6,715 views

    The Bible says our hearts, like that of the Pharisees, can get calloused against God. It is not intentional, but our hearts get dull. We have to recondition them and reopen our eyes to see Him afresh.

    Eyes to See The Pharisees were trained and schooled to recognize God, to hear His voice and to know what God was saying. They looked for something that was so obviously close, but never saw Him. When He actually came on that Christmas, they did not even recognize Him. In fact, even when He spoke, ...read more

    "i Will Bless You!"

    Why did God pick out a fairly obscure man like Abraham to give all these blessings? He wasn’t a man of great accomplishments, renown, or power. Why would God choose him?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK Text: Genesis 12:1-7; 1 Samuel 16:7 ILL. I want to read part of what Danny Dutton, an 8-yr-old 3rd ...read more

    The Hedge Of Protection

     | 3,292 views

    Solomon is considered to be one of, if not the smartest man who ever walked on this earth. When a man like this gives advice, it might be smart for us to listen to him. In this verse of scripture he reveals two things:

    (1) He talks about how traps that people set for each other often trap those who set them. Illus: Have you ever set a rat trap and had it snap and catch your finger? Illus: A good example of setting a trap and getting caught in it is found in the Book of Esther, where wicked Haman was hanged on ...read more

    The Construction Of A King's Character (1 Samuel 16:14-23)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 7, 2024
     | 803 views

    God used solitude, secrecy, sameness, and struggle to shape the character and faith of David for his future role as king of Israel. God can use tools like these to shape anyone who surrenders their life to Him.

    David had just been anointed as the next king of Israel by the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 16:1-13), much to the amazement of his father and brothers. He had been in the fields of Judea tending the family flocks, seemingly consigned like the majority of the populace to live a life of productive ...read more

    Please God

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 28, 2023
     | 1,318 views

    Whether we like it not we need to stay in that position until God speaks to us. Obeying God can be at times inconvenient, uncomfortable, unclear and difficult; however, we need to please Him in all ways.

    Jeremiah 42:6” Whether it is pleasing or displeasing, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God…” At a time when I was groping in the dark to hear the voice of God about a particular issue that as a family we were praying, on a particular day, when I was inside the Church, God revealed His ...read more

    Our Response To Victory Youth Sermon

     | 873 views

    Our victory comes from God and we should give Him all the glory. We should also ensure to finish what we start, just like Jesus finished His mission on the cross.

    So, in 1 Samuel 17:40-54, after David takes down Goliath, the Philistines freak out and run away. They had all their hopes pinned on Goliath, and when he went down, they were toast. It's like when your phone dies and you don't have a charger - total panic, right? But this shows us that we shouldn't ...read more

    God’s promises to Jacob in the desert are types of the promises made to us. Like Jacob God has promised us his PRESENCE, A Permanant PLACE and PROTECTION. We Perfect his promise when we trust him.

    You remember the circumstances, Jacob had deceived his father stolen the blessing which was itself a testimony that he had no faith that God would bring about what He had promised: since Jacob (and his mother) didn’t believe God’s word they took things into their own hands and created heartbreak ...read more

    The Journey Of The Christian Life

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jan 2, 2021
     | 10,856 views

    The Christian life is much more than a single decision to follow Jesus. It's a lifelong journey with Jesus. Jesus is with us on this journey. The journey is his classroom; it provides the context in which we learn to be like him.

    Today we’re just about at the end of the Christmas season and we’re going to move on from our Christmas themes. We’re starting a new series in the gospel of Luke and we’ll mostly continue in Luke until Easter. But before we start to look at our passage I want to explain why it’s so important that ...read more

    The Bible simply says, “....the rich man also died and was buried.” But the funeral must have been a grand affair. The rich man was most likely laid in the best casket, and there was a procession of mourners to accompany him to his grave . . .
