    Contributed by Tom Shepard on Oct 6, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,611 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Eight. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Jacob prepares to leave his parents and is directed to take a wife from the daughters of Laban his uncle. On his journey Jacob has a dream of a ladder reaching to heaven. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 28 Isaac ...read more

    Stay Alert And Pray SermonCentral

     | 3,519 views

    Stay alert and pray, so that you won't fall into temptation. Being alert enhances our prayers, as every enemy we identify pushes us to pray more fervently. Furthermore, being alert is a form of prayer. If we are truly alert, the act of watching itself becomes a prayer.

    In the Bible, Jesus instructs his disciples to "Watch and pray, so that you will not fall into temptation" (Matthew 26:41, NIV). This command holds great significance for believers today. By understanding the importance of watching and praying, we can overcome temptation and live a victorious ...read more

    293 - Need For Seed

    Contributed by Joel Vicente on Feb 14, 2005
    based on 13 ratings
     | 3,039 views

    It takes seed: Psa 126:6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves (bundles) with him.

    Illustrate: With a timid voice and idolizing eyes, the little boy greeted his father as he returned from work, "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?" Greatly surprised, but giving his boy a glaring look, the father said: " Look, son, not even your mother knows that. Don’t bother me ...read more

    Transitions

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Apr 28, 2007
    based on 17 ratings
     | 15,898 views

    Jesus wanted to take His disciples through a transition. The Holy Spirit wants us to make transitions. The “other side” represents our God- given destinies, the plans and purposes of God for our lives.

    Transitions Text: Mark 4:35-41 On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” 36 Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. 37 ...read more

    This is a brief lesson dealing with unity, togetherness, and being with people. It could be used at a funeral of a believer, or a situation where you need a brief lesson.

    Part 7 - Matthew 9:18-26 - The Desperate Cry Of My Faith! Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 25, 2010
    based on 15 ratings
     | 17,270 views

    It wasn’t the faith of this little girl that moved Jesus to come. It was the faith of a father in desperation, crying out to Jesus. Nothing is more powerful than the desperation of a father for his child. THERE IS ALWAYS A DESPERATE ASPECT TO FAITH.

    Part 7 - Matthew 9:18-26 - THE DESPERATE CRY OF MY FAITH! I’ve conducted funerals. I know the kind of grief that hangs in the air with anticipation like storm clouds ready to flood the earth with rain. I know the kind of grief which needs to be expressed in tears and in saying goodbye. Yes, I know ...read more

    With Jesus in our boat, we have no need to fear. God’s presence and power in our lives stills our storms and calms our fears.

    Matthew 8:23-27 “Why Do We Fear?” INTRODUCTION You probably know this already, but our crystal balls don’t work very well. A year ago who would have thought that we wouldn’t feel any more secure flying than we did in the days after 9/11? Who would have foreseen that we’d be pouring troops ...read more

    THE SEVEN DOORS OF THE LORD Psalms 14: 2The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. More Christians today have more “Downs” than “Ups” A down in the mouth Christian will never win souls to the ...read more

    We celebrate the fact that Jesus is alive, but why is it so important to remember and to celebrate "Resurrection Sunday"? Why is it so important that Jesus was raised from the dead?

    JESUS IS ALIVE! Jesus is Alive!!! 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 says… 3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures Jesus was crucified… His ...read more

    The sermon shares the necessity of being prepared by waiting, by walking with the Holy Spirit, by willingness, and if we do these we will have no worries.

    What it takes to be ready for the Coming of the lord? Matthew 25: 1-13 The term "Parousia" refers to 2 coming of Jesus Christ. 1. Note these 10 Virgins are Bridesmaids • They are five wise and five foolish. These are compared to Matthew 7: 24-27 like a wise man who built his ...read more
