    They saw Jesus walking to them; walking on the water. He had seen their desperate condition, and He was concerned for them, like a father for his children. He came to them, walking on the sea.

    "The Comparison Trap" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 15, 2017
     | 19,335 views

    All of us do it. We compare ourselves to others and by doing so we expose ourselves to one of two things----pride or low self esteem. neither is healthy. Paul teaches us in this passage to keep our eyes on the prize not on other people.

    THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS “The Comparison Trap” Philippians 3:12-4:1 One of my heroes in the NT is the apostle Paul. If anyone had the right to brag, it would be him.

    As Joseph reconnects with his brothers, he models for us three steps toward reconciliation: 1) Turn away from revenge. 2) Test for repentance. And 3) Trust in God's sovereignty. Judah's sacrifice reminds us of our Savior Jesus who reconciled us to God.

    Genesis 45:1-15 The Joy of Reconciliation We are covering the amazing story of the Old Testament character of Joseph in two Sundays. The actual story covers 14 chapters of Genesis. I urge you to read it on your own. It is a fascinating account of the worst kind of betrayal and the most amazing ...read more

     | 5,558 views

    This passage is basically a biography, a spiritual biography of Paul’s life. I think it would begin with a statement like this----I am absolutely satisfied with Jesus but in no way am I satisfied with myself.

    Our joy is snatched away when the wrong thing happens, when the wrong person says something; it’s snatched away when we can’t get what we wanted it is certainly snatched away when we worry. When we deal with anxiety.

    “When Anxiety Attacks” Philippians 4:2-9 Throughout this letter we have heard Paul referred to numerous thieves that try to step in and steal our happiness. Our contentment. These thieves are used by Satan on a daily basis. He is identified in John 10 as the thief who comes to steal, kill and ...read more

    Pharisees and Sadducees came seeking a sign, though Jesus had already given many. They wanted to see something different than He had already done; every miracle that Christ had done was a sign, for no man could do what He did unless God were with him.

    -AD 29- Magdala Lesson: Pharisees Increase Attack Matthew 16:1-4, Mark 8:10-13 -Matthew- 1 Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing Him asked that He would show them a sign from heaven. 2 He answered and said to them, “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the ...read more

    When Martin Luther died, they found a piece of paper in his pocket that read: "This is true. We are beggars." He is right. Before God, we are beggars, like the Canaanite woman.

    There is something about a sibling that can bring out the worst in us. We might not mind losing, but when it is to a brother or sister, then it’s an entirely different story. We might become more competitive than we normally are. Our patience can seem to be even less with them. They also seem ...read more

     | 19,360 views

    So often we wallow in guilt and shame, long after we have asked Jesus to forgive us. What if we could be free of that for good? Is self-forgiveness biblical? If not, how can I move forward out of my despair? Peter is a case in point.

    John 21:1-19 Can You Forgive Yourself? Self-forgiveness is the big rage in pop psychology today. I did a quick search on Amazon.com this week, and came up with over 12,000 hits on the subject of self-forgiveness. Yet, the interesting thing is, the Bible has absolutely no mention of it at all! ...read more

    In this message we see Joshua lead the Israelites into the Promised Land, a journey they had waited 40 years to make. Why would we ever want to remain in slavery in Egypt? This message could especially helpful to those who are in recovery.
