     | 1,878 views

    In this present pandemic crisis, many are pondering on these questions. I prayed to God for healing, restoration, for growth... but my prayers were not answered at least not as expected. Does God decide not to hear my prayers? Is he despising me?

    Beloved in Christ, God has given us the authority (John1:12) to become his child, whereby, to exercise the authority: to pray and to live in the fulfillment of his plan. A child of God releases healing and other deliverances from his life by the authority given by God. That same God exercises his ...read more

    Faith is not just belief—it is a persistent, humble, bold, and expectant attitude that refuses to give up. The Canaanite woman’s story shows that even when you're not qualified, faith can qualify you.

    Why Every Christian Should Tithe

     | 2,677 views

    In this sermon I do not expect to hear a lot of Amen but it is my prayer that God might receive a lot of good results from the preaching of HIS Word. Today I will be preaching on WHY EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD TITHE.

    I preach on tithing at least once a year for several reasons. (1) Because I am a Bible preacher. This is what God has called me to do…PREACH HIS WORD. But I preach on tithing for another reason because I want (2) I want the blessings of God on your life not God’s curse. Many of us if not all ...read more

    God often provides help from unexpected sources and through people we least expect. Divine helpers do not always come as wealthy benefactors or influential figures. Sometimes, they are found in unlikely places—individuals whom society has overlooked, rejected, or considered insignificant.

    As we grow in Christ, there exists within us a "faith" that grows. It is beyond just believing. It is a way of life. Sometimes it seems we grow weary, we can become faithless, and it is in these moments that we must know the Lord loves us, and is preparing us to do His will.
