    When someone makes reference to "one thing", you take special notice because you realize that a priority is being mentioned. Let us pay attention to the priorities of God.

    ONE THING When you start a new job, and the boss tells all the rules; you listen. When he says that there is one thing that needs to be done above everything else; you make a very special mental note, knowing that thing is a top priority. When it gets close to Christmas and the kids begin to tell ...read more

    There are three things Jesus borrowed. He definitely returned them in better condition!

    Things Jesus Borrowed We all have a responsibility when borrowing items from others. Proverbs 22:7 “The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.” I want you to think about the contents of your house, garage, attic, or basement. Is there anything borrowed.

    This is about getting priorities straight.

    Worship is bringing pleasure to God. One way we bring pleasure to God is by doing his will for us, and his church. We have two big problems though. The first is that we may think we are inferior, and the second is that we have our own ideas about what is best. I. We are not INFERIOR. When I was ...read more

    Doing Lesser Things

    When we are at work, we know what is important and what not. Sometimes we make a list and set it up in priority. We typically don't do the least important things first. God has a list for us. We need to make sure we are doing the important things.

    If we could say that a certain group or part of the membership of Fundamental Baptist Church is carrying on the work that Jesus called us to do, it would have to be this group. The Wednesday night crowd many times come to church when they have worked all day long. You are tired. You are worn out. ...read more

    If we come not just asking, but really seeking, we will receive God’s best. We can be encouraged to pray because God wants us to, and He desires to give us much more than the request that started the conversation.

    Prayer Changes Things A Sermon on Matthew 7:7-11 The story is told of a young boy who wanted $100 very badly. He prayed for a long time, but nothing happened. Undaunted by the lack of response, he wrote a letter to God presenting his request once again. When the postal authorities received the ...read more
