    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jul 9, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,194 views

    Knowing God’s will is sometimes difficult. People want God to tell them specifically what to do - where to work, where to live, whom to marry, etc. God rarely gives people information that direct and specific. God allows us to make choices regarding those

    Opening illustration: A young man facing the future and unsure of what the next year would bring, concluded, “Nobody knows what God’s will is.” Is he right? Does a lack of certainty about the future translate into not knowing God’s will? The concept of knowing God’s will is often limited to ...read more

    Have you ever wished you could go back and start over? You can begin again by entrusting your life into the Master’s hands. You can begin again by allowing God to shape your life by His skilled, purposeful, and loving hands.

    JEREMIAH 18:1-6 BEGINNING AGAIN The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord saying, (2) “Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will announce My words to you.” (3) Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something on the wheel.

     | 7,751 views

    God claims us as His own, sending us forth to proclaim His Good News. Yet, at the same time, God wants quiet time with us...time spent in prayer with our Maker and Redeemer...time allowing the Holy Spirit to guide our lives in sanctification.

     | 2,982 views

    We are living in tough times but we are also living in exciting times. We must seize the moment and allow the Lord to use us to reach lives. We must make sure God is in it and we must know that being a disciple of Christ is going to cost us something.

    Seizing the Moment Acts chapter 6-8 selective Do you know that you are special in God’s eyes? Really You are special and unique to God and He has a ministry or job for you to do as a believer.

    You're Right! You Don't Have To Get Baptized! Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2013
     | 3,773 views

    It is interesting how we can allow what we have always been taught by others to affect how we look at what the Bible teaches. The subject of baptism is one such subject in which what many have always been taught leads them to suppress the truth.

    I have had many discussions about the subject of baptism with people, and it never fails that sometime during the discussion, they just deny what the scriptures say about the topic. They at times just say, “I deny what you are saying about about baptism,” ignoring the fact that all I am ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,948 views

    Believers have the hope of an eternal reunion with Christ and with believing loved ones who have passed away. That’s why Paul exhorted us to “comfort one another with these words” (v.18). Today, encourage someone with the hope that allows us to say “so lo

    God shows Ezekiel a valley of dry bones. And through his vision, we learn to not limit what God can do, to speak life into the lives of others, to allow God's Spirit to fill us, and to give God the glory when he replaces our hopelessness with hopefulness.

    Ezekiel 37:1-14 When There is No Hope The prognosis is specific: there is no hope. The relationship is irreparably damaged: there is no hope. The depression wraps around you like a thick blanket of fog: there is no hope. Yet, today’s scripture suggests that, in the most hopeless of cases, God is ...read more
