    What God Can Do With A Little

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,124 views

    Here begins the beautiful story of “Feeding the Five Thousand,” which is told by all four of the evangelists and this is the only event from the earthly ministry of Jesus told in all four gospel. It shows what God can do with a little!

    The first outstanding event of Jesus feeding of the five thousand, occurs right after the report of the twelve apostles, who had just returned from their first missionary tour. This is a glowing account of their work and their teaching. Matthew says that Jesus withdrew to a desert place apart when ...read more

I call this two-for-one Sunday because actually there’s going to be two sermons today. These two sermons are represented in the passage that we’re going to look at, both in the Old ...read more

    We can learn much from the lives of Sarah and Hagar.

    Genesis 16 Verse 1 - Now Sarai Abram's wife gave him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. Sarai’s handmaid Hagar is introduced. Sarai had no children.

     | 3,238 views

    When the crowd was massive, the disciples tired and confused, and the multitude was restless and hungry, Jesus uses a lad’s lunch to save the day. To surprise of everyone, Jesus said, “GIVE YE THEM TO EAT! The bewildered, tired disciples undervalued what they had available.

    Sermon. The Possibility of Undervaluing What You Possess John 6:1-15 “After this, Jesus crossed over to the far side of the Sea of Galilee, also known as the Sea of Tiberias. 2 A huge crowd kept following him wherever he went, because they saw his miraculous signs as he healed the sick. 3 Then ...read more

    After Hagar becomes pregnant, Sarah treats her harshly, and eventually, Hagar flees from her mistress into the wilderness, where God's messenger speaks to her.

    Hagar In Brief This practice of surrogacya can be found in several ancient Near Eastern texts.

    Divine Timing: The Promise Comes To Pass!

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Oct 7, 2024
     | 796 views

    Trusting God's promises not only gives you a blessing at the end, but it gives you a blessing while you are waiting.

    Today, we are in chapter 21 of the “From Dust to Life Series” in Genesis. What we will see in this passage is the end of the 25-year long wait for God’s covenant promise to Abraham and Sarah. As we have said earlier in this series: God is never too late and He’s never too early. Though sometimes ...read more

    Bad Decisions #1 Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 7, 2024
     | 956 views

    Waiting in times of struggle (either because of our own bad choices or God’s timing) is the ultimate action of faith.

    What to eat, what to wear, who to respond to first, what to prioritize at work — each of us makes hundreds, if not thousands, of decisions each day. Some of these choices have larger consequences than others. For starters, who we choose to surround ourselves with, where we live, who we worship, ...read more

    Sermon # 18 - Safe In The Shadow Of The Almighty God Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 713 views

    When fear grips our heart and in those times when we feel all alone, deserted and feel that there is no one to help us or stand by us, let’s remember that God sees and He is by our side. The life of Hagar gives us a glimpse of God’s presence in the midst of life’s hardest moments.

    We read in Genesis 21:17, “God heard the boy crying, and from heaven the angel of God spoke to Hagar, "What are you troubled about, Hagar? Don't be afraid. God has heard the boy crying.”(GNB) Hagar and her son wandered through the wilderness, and when the little water she carried got ...read more

    Abraham was a great man of faith... but not always. Sometimes his struggles with believing God's promises undermined his life and his family. But what did God do when Abraham struggled?

    A preacher who was new to town and had dropped off his suit at the dry-cleaners. Later that week, he came back to pick up his suit, and the woman behind the counter said. “That will be $10.50.” “Oh my,” said the preacher. “I only have $9. Would it be alright if I came back later with the rest?” ...read more

    The wilderness is not a pleasant place to be, but when one is lost in the wilderness; death is almost certain. The wilderness of life can be cruel, but God is able to deliver all who trust in him.

    TEXT: Genesis 21:14 "So Abraham got up early the next morning, prepared food and a container of water, and strapped them on Hagar’s shoulders. Then he sent her away with their son, and she wandered aimlessly in the wilderness of Beersheba." THE WILDERNESD The desert or wilderness is not ...read more

    Sermon # 42 - Time To Rise Up Series

     | 912 views

    Jonah was seated in the wrong place waiting for God to pour out His wrath on the city of Nineveh. There were many others in the Bible who were in the wrong place like Jonah. If we are in such a place, God reminds us to rise up and go, to fulfill His purposes for our lives.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) God sent the prophet Jonah to the city of Nineveh with a message. When Jonah preached, the people of Nineveh received the ...read more
