    Expectations – General And Specific – Great And Small Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 3,919 views

    Expectations keep us hoping if they are good, and fearful if they are bad. There are many examples in the bible of expectations but I have selected only a few, then we look at Christian expectations. Even cricket is touched on.

    EXPECTATIONS – GENERAL AND SPECIFIC – GREAT AND SMALL I wonder how many are familiar with the novel “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens. Pip the orphan boy relates his story that is based around what expectations wait for him, surprises, incorrect assumptions, tragedy and a lot more. Well as ...read more

    The "Day Of The Lord” Study In The Scriptures - New Testament Part 11 – Peter, 2thessalonians Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 26, 2022
     | 1,096 views

    This second last Part has a lot of material from Peter and Paul in the explanation of the man of lawlessness - Antichrist and the Tribulation. It also proves that the Church must be raptured before the tribulation can begin. Hope you enjoy working through this.

    THE “DAY OF THE LORD” STUDY IN THE SCRIPTURES - NEW TESTAMENT PART 11 – PETER, 2THESSALONIANS CONTINUED FROM PART 10. It was mentioned in Part 10 that it was a difficult place to have ended PART 10, but not to have done so, would have made a very long Part. We will continue from Part 10 – ...read more

    The Power Of A Praying Church

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 3, 2023

     | 5,721 views

    In Acts 12. we see the power that's at our disposal if we will seek God in intercessory prayer. Peter was going to be executed the next morning, but because Christians prayed, God sent an angel. He'll do it today if we pray! This message will preach!

    THE POWER OF A PRAYING CHURCH Acts 12:1-17 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WHERE JESUS WAS BORN 1. A backwoods Texan asked a woman to marry him and she said, “We can’t get married unless you’re a Christian.” So he went to a Catholic church and said he wanted to join. 2. The priest said, “Well, you ...read more

    Pray For One Another Series

    Prayer is our privilege and responsibility as disciples of Jesus. Praying for one another can make such a difference in each other's lives.

    A. The story is told about three men who were hiking one day and unexpectedly came upon a large, raging river. 1. They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea of how to do so. 2. The first man prayed to God, saying, “Please God, give me the strength to cross this river.” a. Poof! God ...read more

    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

    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.

    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

     | 13,211 views

    If these gates remain shut, it will limit our service to God and hinder our destiny fulfilment; but when these gates are opened, we will have exponential church growth, improvement in our church finances and abundant blessings.

    THE GATES MUST BE OPENED “When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him” (Acts 12:10) We shall ...read more

    Dapat Bukas Ang Gate Series

     | 3,943 views

    Kung mananatiling sarado ang mga pintuang ito, malilimitahan nito ang ating paglilingkod sa Diyos ; ngunit kapag nabuksan ang mga pintuan na ito, magkakaroon tayo ng napakalaking paglago ng simbahan, pagpapabuti ng pananalapi ng ating simbahan at masaganang pagpapala.

    DAPAT BUKAS ANG GATE “Nang makalampas sila sa una at ikalawang ward, sila ay dumating sa pintuang-bakal na patungo sa lungsod; na nagbukas sa kanila sa kaniyang sariling kusa: at sila'y lumabas at nagdaan sa isang lansangan; at kaagad na umalis ang anghel sa kanya” (Mga Gawa 12:10) Itutuloy ...read more

    The story of Elijah is a great example of prayer. This is an unfinished sermon.

    Something New Is Coming 1 Kings 18:41-46 NLT 41 Then Elijah said to Ahab, “Go get something to eat and drink, for I hear a mighty rainstorm coming!” 42 So Ahab went to eat and drink. But Elijah climbed to the top of Mount Carmel and bowed low to the ground and prayed with his face ...read more
