    The Praying Church Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 21, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,204 views

    The church did not pray for the easing of persecution, but for greater courage and more miracles. They recognizes God’s sovereignty and pray for God’s will to be fulfilled.

    CONTEXT • Peter and John healed a crippled beggar in Chapter 3. It drawn the attention of the crowd. • Peter took the opportunity to preach Jesus and forgiveness of sin in Jesus’ Name. At least 5000 men were saved (4:4). • The priests and religious leaders were not happy that they were preaching ...read more

    April 26, 2009 Morning Worship Text: Acts 4:23-31 Subject: Prayer Title: Driven to Prayer Have you ever stopped and thought about what it is that drives people to prayer? You can answer that question for yourselves, but when I stop and look at it I see that there may be many things that push ...read more

    What Do We Do When Control Is Taken Away?

    Contributed by Doug Koehler on May 2, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,940 views

    We like to be in control, some of us need to be in control but, when that control is taken away by sinful man or others, we need to look to the one who is always in full control.

    Acts 4:23-33 I suspect that most all of the conflicts and battles of life boil down to issues of control. Republicans want control of the congress and Democrats don’t want to give it up. Israelis want to control Palestinians and Palestinians resist. Sunnis and Shiites fight for control of Iraq. ...read more

     | 9,430 views

    In Acts 4 we see a church alive and on fire. But it is also a church under attack. How did the first believers cope with opposition?

    Introduction Once upon a time, an atheist lived in a small town. The atheist wasn’t a bad man, he just didn’t believe. He wasn’t interested in church… and there was only one in the area. It was cold and dead. More of a social club for the deceased. One day the church building caught on fire. The ...read more

     | 4,352 views

    Being spirit-filled is not a one-time thing, but an ongoing, always needed process.

    WHEN IT COMES TO DESCRIBING WHAT THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN DO IN THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN, I BELIEVE JESUS GAVE US THE ANSWER IN LUKE 7:22-23. IT CAME WHEN JESUS TOLD THE DISCIPLES OF JOHN THE BAPTIST TO GIVE A REPORT ABOUT WHAT THEY HAD SEEN AND HEARD WHICH WAS, "THE BLIND SEE, THE LAME ...read more

    God shakes the world through our prayers.

    Scripture Introduction A man asked his friend, “What color are your pastor’s eyes?” He answered: “I don’t know. When he prays he closes his eyes, and when he preaches, I close mine.” That has little or nothing to do with today’s sermon; I simply liked it. Dr. D. A. Carson, professor at ...read more

    This full text message builds on the ofundation of the message "United In Prayer". It tells more stories of churches which have been totally transformed into spiritual power houses by united prayer.

    This event in the life of the early church gives us guidance in how to pray with power.

    As I’ve probably shared with you once before, I was tremendously challenged by a conversational exchange in a short-lived situation comedy. It was a comedy where the late Danny Thomas played a doctor. There was a scene in “The Practice” where a nurse overhears Thomas’ character praying. When she ...read more

    based on 49 ratings
     | 32,068 views

    There is no name like the name of Jesus. This message shows the power of the name of Jesus in the early church and reminds us that that power has not faded. Jesus still heals, He still saves and He is still on HIs throne. 5 main points in the message.

    “The Powerful Name of Jesus” Acts 4:13-31 These men who stood here and witnessed the courage of Peter and John were now in a huge dilemma. No matter which way they turned they were trapped. They couldn’t deny the miracle that this lame man had been healed because he was standing ...read more

    Lessons we can learn from Peter and John’s example in refusing to stay silent or testifying in Jesus’ name.

    *Intro>The French Foreign Legion has an inspiring motto: “If I falter, push me on. If I stumble, pick me up. If I retreat, shoot me.” -Obviously, neither Peter nor John were members of the French Foreign Legion, but they demonstrated a similar determination. -After being used by God to heal a ...read more

    We are glimpsing the early church at a very turbulent and emotional time. How do they respond in such a time of crises?

    The Highlands of Scotland are known for their shy and reserved temperament. Just how that became the temperament is not known. Some suggest it is the cold weather and long winters with very little daylight. The reserved nature is part of their culture and that reflects itself in every area of life, ...read more
