    The Pace Of Provision

    Contributed by Steve Ely on Oct 1, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,373 views

    We want provision right now! Send in the offering and expect the miracle, the new car, or the new house. However, there is a pace to provision that we must understand and in which we must participate.

    The Pace of Provision We like to talk about provision. You can get shouted down when you begin to talk about provision. I may not get an “amen” when I preach about lust, gluttony, or anger, but when I get off on provision you can bet amens are coming. American Christianity is particular is ...read more

    Is the Lord's Supper an act performed by rote, or do we worship the Lord through this act? The Meal is designed to actively bring to mind the sacrifice of our Saviour, bring us to the point of worship.

    “I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, ‘This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.’ In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, ...read more

    As in any agressive activity the head must be protected, so it is in spiritual warfare; our minds must be protected from the attacks of satan.

    Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: The helmet protects the head, In our spiritual warfare the head of the believer does not speak of his brain but rather the mind or understanding – (For as a man thinketh so is he). The helmet of ...read more

    Application about Paul’s teaching about his thorn: He was active in interpreting his life experience to himself and others

The slogan’s so familiar it’s almost comforting. But let’s be honest—companies go out of business. Policies lapse. Premiums rise. “Coverage ...read more
