    Praying Through A Pandemic

    The church ought to pray with great expectation because (1) God sees our trials, (2) God hears our prayers (3) and God will take care of our enemies.

    Acts 12:5 “Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.” The graphic scene of Acts 12 is not strange to the Church. The church has always faced opposition. Since its inception, the devil has been trying to stop the church and even to ...read more

    The war between the political and spiritual leaders is an age-old issue. It exists time immemorial. Religious leaders are raised by God, whereas political leaders inherit from their forefathers, are elected by their citizens through democracy.

    Jesus Delivers His Church

    In his church, the Lord Jesus is still doing the good work that He has begun, and He is doing it unstoppably.

    Beloved in Christ, I’d be worried if the church was a human effort. If it was up to us alone to defend the church, maintain her unity, or increase her numbers, we’d have reason to be concerned. For the church would certainly follow the path of so many man-made clubs and societies—for a while strong ...read more

    Fellowship was more than just an activity for the early Christians—it was a way of life that fostered deep connections, mutual support, and spiritual growth. Through fellowship, including shared meals, prayer, and encouragement, the early church thrived in unity and love.

    Introduction Video Ill.: Community — Church Fuel 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

    Paul wrote to young Timothy and said, “…that thou...war a good warfare.”

    Illus: It is obvious, from much of Paul’s writings, that he thought of the Christian life as a warfare. He spoke of Christians as soldiers, in training, discipline, and even in having weapons. In the Book of Acts, we can see so clearly that Christians are soldiers. In one chapter we read ...read more

     | 2,822 views

    We are created in the image of God, and when we choose to reflect His image through our lives we may be hated or even persecuted. Let’s see how God’s justice and righteousness will always prevail over every evil plot of the enemy.

    We read in Genesis 1:26, And God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” (KJV) Why was man ...read more

    God is calling us to a life in the secret place because glorious things are meant for the secret place.

    The Word VEX means to Torment and Afflict. When the Devil sees that the Church does nothing about his activities, he finds a Comfort Zone. This means that when the Church is cold, Prayerless and without Fire, the church becomes a breeding place for the activities of the devil. The first targets ...read more
