    Eljah prayed and his prayer was very effective. God is still willing to do even greater things in our days provided He can see those qualities He saw in Elijah in us today.

Is any merry? let him sing psalms. 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 And the prayer of faith shall ...read more

    It does not make sense, but how could there be a blessing in suffering? Our light affliction will not last forever, it is just for a moment, because one day it will all be over when we see Jesus.

    The Church at Smyrna was a suffering church. They had experienced past afflictions and were going to encounter sever trials so they are encouraged to endure. A suffering church needs to look to their Lord and look to their future.

    Lessons from a Suffering Church Revelation 2:8-11 8 "To the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These are the words of him who is the First and the Last, who died and came to life again. 9 I know your afflictions and your poverty-- yet you are rich!

    How do we become a community of men and women formed in the image of Jesus? Remember that we are still weak human beings, afflicted by the effects of original sin. We are like sheep.

    Fourth Sunday of Easter 2025 Who is called to follow Jesus in His assembly, His Church?

    The defeated nation, Judah, is without hope or strength, and has its teeth broken by gravel. There is prayer for God to remember. We see a contrite spirit being expressed by a people without strength and hope, where peace is rejected, and in affliction.

    Turning Thorns Into Roses

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 3, 2018
     | 6,558 views

    The decided weakness of Paul, which he called his “thorn” was kept vague so everybody could relate to whatever type of aggravating affliction, discomfort, constant temptation, emotional or physical or bouts.

    14B Elif Shafak wrote “be thankful for every thorn that others might throw at you. It is a sign that you will soon be showered in roses”   1). The thorn “thrown”at Our Lord in our Gospel reading today was actually the rude comments by his hometown folks who dismissed him as being “all too ...read more

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 13 – Jeremiah And The Nation Are In Affliction; The Nation Is Expelled; Bodies Suffer; Bitterness - Chapter 3:1-5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 25, 2025
     | 203 views

    Sin brought bitterness and hardship, so bad that horrible things were done among the people. These verses dwell on that today. God is blamed for it all through His allowing Babylon to come. They walk in darkness, but they suffer their own fate.

    As Christians, in spite of the outlook of our personal lives or the world around us, there are always these constants we can be thankful for and rejoice in.

    WHY SHOULD WE BE THANKFUL? INTRO: We Christians are a weird lot! A. The world does not understand us…sometimes we don’t even understand us! 1. We live our lives (or we should) swimming upstream. a. We live in direct opposition of how most people think we should live. b. We do the ...read more
