    Sermon on Following up with our life, after Easter is over. Acts 2 gives us the road map on what to do and when to expect those signs and miracles from God.

    Here we are, two weeks after Easter, the crucifixion is over, the resurrection is over, sort of. At least all the celebration is over, too bad for that. We have studied about the Road to Emmaus and the two men who met Christ there. Those two men that were quiet, and heartbroken and thought that ...read more

    Any power militating against a true child of God is looking for problems. Such a power wants to sink into the red sea after the order of Pharaoh. It is also seeking to be destroyed by God's anger after the order of Senacherib.

    LORD, BEHOLD THEIR THREATENING Dr. D. K. Olukoya In Acts 4, the apostles had been pushed around. They had been warned not to preach in the name of Jesus. Then in verse 29, they started praying, "And now, Lord, behold their threatening and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may ...read more
