     | 4,711 views

    We are a "stream from Lebanon", to be dashed down many water falls and dashed forward with the irresistible force of God, sweeping everything away till we find perfect rest.

    "A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and STREAMS FROM LEBANON" (Songs of Solomon 4:15) Ancient biblical Lebanon was one of the sweetest places in all the land of Canaan (Isaiah 29:17), which had a white, snow-capped mountain range (Jeremiah 18:14) whose upward movement ...read more

    Provoking Thoughts From First John (1 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 2,244 views

    1 John is called one of the “General Epistles,” because it was not sent to a specific church. Rather, it was sent to churches in general.

    The three books of John are referred to as “letters, however, the first was not written in the form of a letter. For example, it has no salutation nor conclusion. In fact, it has all the characteristics of a sermon in which a pastor is revealing his love for God’s people. To have a good ...read more

    Losers Win! Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Oct 19, 2018
     | 6,995 views

    When you fail, don’t try to save yourself. Instead, realize you’re a loser (we all are), and rely on the Lord to turn your failure into victory!

    Recently, I came across some cynical observations on life and work: Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool; the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese; borrow money from a pessimist – they don't expect it back; if at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence ...read more

    Have you discovered the calling that God has for your life? Do you know what it is that He wants you to do for Him? If you do know what He has called you to do are you doing it or avoiding it?

    Don't be like Jonah, don't run away, follow your calling. We are continuing in our series Discovering Your Destiny and this week we are considering how ‘God Prepares and Positions us’ Ephesians 2:10 reminds us, God has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for ...read more

    When God Hides

     | 15,153 views

    We all have times of dryness in our relationship with God, and it could be for a variety of reasons. But sometimes it's because we harbor unconfessed sin our life. Isaiah gives us a path forward, a way to renew our relationship with the Lord.

    Isaiah 64:1-9 When God Hides Have you ever had a winter season of faith? You pray, but your prayers seem to bounce off the ceiling? You wonder if you really know God, or if God knows you? Philip Yancey, in his book, “Reaching for the Invisible God,” writes: “I experienced the sense of abandonment ...read more

    A Life That Matters Series

    based on 16 ratings
     | 17,942 views

    If we want to live a life that matters, we must sacrifice, suffer, submit and serve. We don’t like those words, because they seem to be steps down to obscurity, but in Christ’s Kingdom they are steps to true greatness.

    In a world torn between nationalism and globalism, where leaders promise perfection through purging "bad actors" or uniting under one system, the ancient stories of Noah’s Ark and the Tower of Babel speak with startling relevance.

    Jeremiah 23 says that Jehovah our Righteousness will arise out of the branch of David. In Revelation 22 Jesus said He was the Root and the offspring of David. This takes a deeper look at this topic.

    Is Jesus Jehovah? Throughout the New Testament, Jesus is given attributes that the LORD (Jehovah) of the Old Testament identified for Himself. God stated that He would judge the world in the Old Testament, the New Testament states that, “For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment ...read more
