    When God Says No

    Contributed by Bryan Dill on Jun 17, 2006

    I want us to look at what happens when God says no. Does that mean that God doesn’t care for us? Does it mean that He’s being cruel? Let’s take a look at a couple different times in scripture when God said no to his children’s prayers.

    WHEN GOD SAYS NO Barbara Kerby has written a humorous reflection about her first experience of driving. Barbara’s father took her to the high school parking lot for driving lessons. For this particular lesson, Barbara’s three-year-old sister rode along in the backseat. While trying to negotiate a ...read more

    Hope is not wishful thinking. Our confidence is Jesus. He is our anchor that connects us to God. This sermon deals with how that confidence or joyous expectation changes us and charges us to love God and love people until His return. This is why Jesus

    This sermon delves into the profound reasons we should express our gratitude to God. Our decision to thank God should not be contingent on His recent actions for us, but rather on the everlasting love He has shown us through His Son and His continuous blessings.

    Today, I want to talk to you about the importance of gratitude. In a year filled with challenges and difficulties, it may be hard for some to find reasons to be thankful. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everyone's lives in various ways, making it even more crucial to cultivate a spirit of ...read more

    Book of Joshua is about faith. The Israelites had approached the Jordan River in transition from wandering in a desert to dwelling in a new land. Greater blessings awaited them but with greater battles. Victory comes to God when His people trust and obey.

    2016: WE HAVE NOT PASSED THIS WAY BEFORE JOSHUA 3: 1 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over. 2 After three days the officers went throughout the camp, 3 giving orders to the people: “When you see ...read more

    This is not a full text sermon...it is an approach to the text; think of it as seed for a sermon.

    Upon reading today's text the first thing that springs to mind, quite honestly, is Erich von Daniken's 1968 book, "Chariots of the Gods?," and the several hours of my life that I will never get back for having watched so many of those late night documentaries on the History Channel about UFO's and ...read more
