    Hear The Call Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Sep 8, 2022
     | 1,883 views

    In his stubborn struggles, Abraham manages to hang on to faith. This is because his journey with God began with a call.

    HEAR THE CALL Genesis 12:1-8 Introduction In Recovery Month we are engaging the Scriptures through the eyes of recovery so that… We can acknowledge all of us are in recovery from something. Jonathan Benz “…The case can be made on both statistical and existential grounds that the addicts in ...read more

    Do you trust that God will make ALL things right if you surrender to His will? Do you have “righteous faith” … a faith based on your trust in a “righteous” God? Good!

    [This is part of a series on Reinhold Niebuhr's prayer "The Serenity Prayer" (long or full version). This sermon is based on the line, "trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His will."] Abram and Lot stood on the ridge and looked out over the ...read more

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 - Ok, He’s Dead! What Have I Inherited? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 9, 2010
    based on 30 ratings

    Some criticize him for staying in Haran saying that he fell short of the promises of God, distracted by the attraction of wealth. I don’t think he was saying, OK, HE’S DEAD! WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? But he did stay in Haran until his father died.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 (NASB) - OK, HE’S DEAD. WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? I understand the upheaval of moving to a different city. Packing endless boxes of books, dismantling beds and throwing out all the junk we have accumulated over time - big job. Then watching a huge truck back into our ...read more

    Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - When God Hijacks Your Life? Series

    I can't imagine packing the removal truck and saying to the driver to pull out without knowing what town you wanted him to go to. "DON'T ASK QUESTIONS! JUST DRIVE!" Sounds like a terrorist trying to hijack a vehicle.

    Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - DON'T ASK QUESTIONS, JUST DRIVE! When God hijacks your life! If you have kids, you know the routine. Five minutes into the trip they are asking "WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHEN DO WE GET THERE? ARE WE THERE YET?" At least Abram didn't have any kids, because he would have had a ...read more

     | 4,813 views

    As Abraham journeyed as a stranger in a foreign land his faith was tested and sometimes faltered. What do we do when our faith falters. It's part of the journey.

    AS A STRANGER IN A FOREIGN LAND FALTERING FAITH Genesis 12:6-9 Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, as far as the terebinth tree of Moreh. And the Canaanites were then in the land. Then the LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” And there ...read more

    Are you going to take the effort to listen to God? How has your faith panned out for God? Will you step out even when God tests your faith by making the most difficult sacrifices in your life? Do you obey God at every level?

    Opening Illustration: Narrate the story of our call to the USA as missionaries. Introduction: The Lord's call for Abram to journey to the Promised Land is often equated with a call to missionary service. For the missionary, there is a sense where God has called them from the ease and security of ...read more

    What do we think of when we think of "The Altar?" For some it brings back sweet memories from our childhood. For others just confusion and misunderstandings. We cannot experience a move of God without The Altar! Today, let's take a quick look at the subject of "The Altar."

    Isaiah 55:6-7 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

     | 1,153 views

    Abram's response to God offers us several questions to consider: Do we follow God’s calling as He leads us? Do we take time to reflect on what God has done? Do we follow God obediently? And, do we allow ourselves to be centered to God’s will and calling?

    Alpha and Omega, Part 17 Abram’s Belief for our Benefit Genesis 12:1-9 (focus on vv.4-9) Introduction - 2023 has been led with “one purpose”: To know there is a God! -- Continuing our series, “Alpha and Omega”; examining the beginning to the end - Last week we saw our lead into God’s ...read more

    Reward For Being Obedient

    Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023
     | 2,286 views

    God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

    THE LORD, OUR OBJECT OF OBEDIENT The one whose voice and command we are to obey is the LORD Himself. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who commanded OUR Father Abraham (Gen. 12:1). In Matthew, it is Christ Jesus Christ. We must learn to obey the Holy Spirit who now works in ...read more

    What inspires you? What breathes life into you? That is an important question! Those without inspiration cannot make a maximum impact on the world of which they are a part!

    Authentic Versus Counterfeit Faith (Ii) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,353 views

    This message examines the qualities of saving faith as revealed in Romans 4:18-22. In this chapter, Paul uses Abraham's example to teach the kind of faith response to God that ultimately leads to eternal salvation. Hint: It is not easy believism.

    Intro A major theme in Romans 4 is faith. Paul is aggressively contending for justification by faith alone. The issue we are currently addressing is the kind of faith Paul has in mind when he uses the word. We know from James 2 that some forms of faith are dead and worthless. We know from Jesus’s ...read more

    God's peace is not a by-product of a tribulation free life but of seeing and thanking Him for the unmerited grace one has received!
