Creating New Strongholds - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 5, 2019

We examine the strongholds operating in Peter and John when they were confronted by the religious leaders

The last time we were together, we began looking at ways of thinking that the Apostle Paul describes as “strong holds.” Found only in 2 Corinthians 10:4, “strongholds” are wrong thoughts and beliefs about God that have been emotionally hardwired into our minds that hinder, what 2 Timothy 2:4 ...read more

Scared Straight #4: Miracles Happen Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 18, 2020

God is always present with us but often shows himself clearest to non believers when we go through the fire.

Three weeks ago, we began a new teaching series around the supernatural. We discussed the idea that Jesus' presence and works 2000 years ago represent an orderly working of the world many don’t recognise nor do they understand, so they call the events - supernatural. Supernatural by ...read more

A Hand Up...not A Hand Out! (Acts 3:1-10)

Contributed by David Darst on May 17, 2021

I have come to this conclusion: People do not need a “hand out” . What they really need is a “hand up” So many people would be content to be carried around in their affliction rather than walk on their own two feet. The Worst part is many Christian’s are content to keep carrying them.

I. The Routine (1) Peter and John were still in the two by two mode -- they were going about their religious routine on their way to the temple to pray. “Ninth hour” approximately (3PM) in the afternoon. Some interesting observations: It wasn’t the time of the afternoon sacrifice; but rather the ...read more

In The Name Of Jesus

Contributed by Vicki Williamson on May 24, 2021

Today’s text is a real life drama. It is after Jesus had been crucified, raised from the dead and ascended into heaven. The players in this high drama are the disciples of Jesus, a lame man, the people in the temple, the priests, the religious leaders and of course God.

When we come to the scriptures it is important that we open up our hearts and minds to hear from God. As it is His truth and His love story to us. Therefore let us surrender to Him all our emotions and thoughts. Father by your Spirit as we come to today’s text give us fresh eyes to receive a ...read more

The Miraculous Healing Of A Lame Man

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 22, 2021

Nearly all of the miracles you read about in the Bible work to alleviate suffering. Nearly all the miracles deal with human suffering just as our story today.

Today’s Scripture “And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms. And Peter directed his gaze at ...read more

What A Miracle Looks Like

Contributed by Dr. Jwt Spies on Jan 15, 2022

He is a miracle working God

Today, I want to take a look at the life of a man that was radically changed by the power of God. But most importantly I want to look at his faith and his reaction to Jesus. As the story open up, we see that this was a man that was paralyzed. He had never known what it was to walk. What he had ...read more

Power Evangelism Explained (John 11:1-54, Part 2) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 21, 2022

How did Jesus do his signs, and how were the disciples able to do the signs? And what can we learn from this?

The last few weeks, I've been pushing the idea that God will still do signs, and wonders, and healings through us, as Jesus works in us, through the power of the Holy Spirit. I think God is far more willing to do great things in the world through us than we realize. I think the weakness, and ...read more

The Anointing Today

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Feb 26, 2022

The flow of the anointing can be seen throughout the Bible and every significant revival in church history. Simply put, if there were no anointing, there would be no revival. The anointing is the burden removing, yoke destroying power of God.

Scripture Text: Acts 1:8 INTRODUCTION Revival & Anointing Go Together DEFINITIONS: Websters ANOINT', v.t. [L. ungo.] To pour oil upon; to smear or rub over with oil or unctuous substances; also to spread over, as oil. To consecrate by unction or the use of oil. • Thou shalt anoint the ...read more

Acts Of The Apostles (4 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

I would remind you again, that Luke is writing to his good friend, Theophilus. He is reporting on the activities of Christ's apostles.

We can probably safely assume that Peter must have made a big impression on Luke, because in chapter two he recorded Peter's first message, and in chapter three he records Peter's second message. In Acts chapter three, we see three things we want to consider, such as: I. THEIR ...read more
