    Paul is clearly talking about unity in the church. He is talking about the kind of harmony that should exist among those people who really love the Lord, among those people in whom the Holy Spirit is living.

    Opening illustration: Our power is shut off, and suddenly we become thankful for electricity. Our garbage is not picked up, and suddenly we become thankful for the garbage collector’s weekly stop. A good friend dies, and suddenly we discover how much he meant to us.

    Opening illustration: While ministering in the Middle East, my wife, Maureena, and I experienced the heartbeat of God almost every day.

    Don't Quit

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 1,249 views

    Our victory is assured because Christ was victorious. We are “more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37). Quitting is a shortcut leading to failure. We can finish strong when we focus on Christ.

    Opening illustration: In 1952 Florence Chadwick attempted to swim 26 miles from the coast of California to Catalina Island. After 15 hours, a heavy fog began to block her view, she became disoriented, and she gave up. To her chagrin, Chadwick learned that she had quit just 1 mile short of her ...read more

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 505 views

    Have we thought of bonding with God, getting intimate with Him and desiring His Presence more than anything else in life? God’s presence with us is one of His greatest presents to us.

    Opening illustration: Oswald Chambers once wrote: “It is not God’s promises we need, it is [God] Himself.” At Christmastime we often say, “God’s presence is more important than presents.” But the amount of time and effort we spend on shopping for gifts may indicate otherwise. In certain parts of ...read more

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Nov 15, 2025
     | 312 views

    In a world constantly seeking a place to belong, to feel safe, and to be loved, the scriptures come as a refreshing reminder that God has chosen us to be His dwelling place. His desire has been consistently clear: to dwell among His people, not in buildings made by human hands.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Story of John Wesley’s dream of first going to hell and then heaven and realizing only Christians were in heaven and not the denominations.

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Nov 21, 2025
     | 616 views

    Paul is urging believers to live out their new identity in Christ by cultivating hearts overflowing with thankfulness. Why? Because gratitude is a response to God’s grace. It reminds us of His faithfulness, aligns our hearts with His will, and demonstrates that we trust in His sovereign goodness.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, ...read more

     | 325 views

    As we reflect on the birth of Christ this Christmas, let us ask ourselves: How do we respond to Jesus, our Savior? Will we make room for Him, open our hearts, and joyfully welcome His presence, or will we turn Him away?

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Play the video “The Shepherd’s Story.” INTRODUCTION: Christmas is the celebration of God’s greatest gift to humanity—Jesus Christ, our Savior.

    Revival is about bringing life to the spiritually dead, renewing what is weary and restoring what is broken. Christmas is the ultimate example of God initiating this revival through the coming of Jesus Christ.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Everything seemed dead in the world for around 400 years, and it seemed like the world was about to end but suddenly there was a baby’s cry that woke up Bethlehem and also the king and the magis that lived far beyond Israel.
