    Are You Ready To Be Blessed Series

    Everyone wants to be blessed, but are they ready to be blessed. Everyone wants to have stuff, but to be blessed is not about stuff but being equipped with power to be victorious.

    “Are you ready to be Blessed” “The Jabbok Experience” Gen. 32:22-32 Are you ready to be blessed? This may seem like a rhetorical question because there isn’t anyone that doesn’t want to be blessed. If you don’t believe that just stop for a moment and listen around Christiandom. Everyone is ...read more

    This sermon is actually a testimony of our experince as my wife and I answered God’s call to be missionaries.

As I have just mentioned we will be moving on the 16th September 2006. Before I do that I just want to read a passage of scripture ...read more

    As a Christian, it is a good thing to question, to seek; the key is to ask good questions and seek out good sources for your answers; most notably, the Bible.

    Wrestling with God, Genesis 32:22-31 Introduction Once a Hasidic teacher told this parable; a man had been wandering about in a forest for several days, unable to find the way out. Finally he saw a man approaching him in the distance. His heart was filled with joy. Now I shall surely find out ...read more

    God desires for us to wrestle with Him in order to shape us into the people He wants us to become

    I don’t have some clever fact or story or joke to start this sermon. Nothing can top the text itself: Genesis 32:22-32 That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. After he had sent them across the stream, he sent ...read more

    Jacob's Night Of Change

     | 18,324 views

    Jacob found himself in a tough spot and alone when the Angel of the Lord came and wrestled with him. Are we willing to put ourselves in a position for an encounter with God?

    n Jacob was a man who had always done things his way and he was the kind of person who wanted to be in charge and know how things were going to play out. n How many times do we get in that same place with God? We know what we are used to and we know what we expect and don’t want to see that ...read more

    What Is Your Name

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Oct 2, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,573 views

    Discovering your name sometimes requires experiences of dark nights and aloneness. God must test our behaviour. He pushes us to see things that are not good for us, things that must change. He loves us far to much to leave us to our destructive behaviour

    The unknown author of the following story captures the value of a name. “After the American Civil War the managers of the infamous Louisiana Lottery approached Robert E.

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 26 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 16, 2011
     | 3,235 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 32 We enter into chapter 32 and will see many new things in the life of Jacob. After the many experiences of Jacobs ...read more
