     | 5,419 views

    God can provide the ability to complete any task, but sometimes sacrifice is required. Whenever we make ourselves and our resources available to God, then His power and grace will flow through our lives and pour into our situation.

    Have you ever experienced a time in your life in which you were going through trials and hard times? Probably everybody has. Perhaps during this time you felt distant from God and spiritually dry. Dwight L. Moody used to say, “The only way to keep a broken vessel full is to keep it always under ...read more

    No matter the present situation you're in, light will surely prevail over darkness. Joy will come in the morning.

    NO NIGHT IN THE CITY "God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day." Genesis 1:5. God not only creates the brightness of day, He also creates the darkness of night. So whatever appears like a night today is just before ...read more

    God works in mysterious ways to bring something good out of the worst of what happens to us.

    A Spanish Catholic priest, the venerable Saint John of the Cross, wrote, "Live in faith and hope, though it be in darkness, for in this darkness God protects the soul. Cast your care upon God, for you are His, and He will not forget you. Do not think that He is leaving you alone, for that ...read more

     | 17,133 views

    The Lord Jesus promised us that His grace would be sufficient to sustain us, no matter what difficulties we encounter. This grace can flow from Him because He suffered worse than any human. He feels what we feel!

    “MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT” 2 Cor. 12:7-9 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A couple was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. They had both been exemplary people. Suddenly an angel appeared in front of them; “I have come to grant each of you one request: what have you always wished for?” 2. The ...read more

    “Why do bad things happen to Good People?” James 1:1-12 The question we are tackling this morning is asked perhaps more than any other question about God.

     | 2,440 views

    James is not the James who was one of the 12 apostles and killed by Herod Agrippa I in the YEAR AD 44. Instead, James was the half-brother of Jesus (Matt. 13:55),

    I. There are certain realities of life common to all believers – 1:2-1:18. A. Trials and testing will come and can be overcome -- 1:2-8. 3. Ask for wisdom -- 1:5.

    Three Anchors To Grasp In The Storms Of Life!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 16, 2021
     | 4,667 views

    The difficulties of life are often referred to as the storms of life. This is appropriate because both storms and the difficulties of life CAN BE DEVASTATING!

    • Some of the difficulties (storms) we face can be a result of our own doing • Some of the difficulties (storms) we face can be a result of the actions of others For example, there are some who feel that they have the right to drink and drive. Since they feel they have this right, they drive down ...read more

    Everyone has troubles. Some are better than others at covering their troubles up, but I can assure you that everyone has troubles.

    The Suffering Saint

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,190 views

    Make no mistake about it, SAINTS and SINNERS in this life suffer. Some who promote “Easy-Believism” in order to win converts to the Lord, paint a picture of the Christian life as a fairy tale.

    You accept the Lord and live happily ever after. But that is not true. SAINTS, like the SINNERS in this life have their share of suffering. • We may not suffer for the same reasons they suffer, but we suffer • Many times for the SAINTS and the SINNERS, the sufferings come from bad decisions they ...read more

    This passage of scripture has many surprises, but we want to look especially at two of them; ONE GOOD SURPRISE and ONE BAD SURPRISE

    It is surprising, and sad, that the only testimony (in effect) on Jesus’ behalf during the trial was made, not by any of Jesus’ disciples, nor apostles, nor followers, but by Pilate’s wife.

    Pilate's Wife Matt. 27:11-26 The chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole council of the Sanhedrin had decided to put Jesus to death. They had Jesus brought before Pilate the governor to pronounce the death sentence. (Mark 15:1; Luke 22:66; 23:1) Pontius Pilate was the fifth ...read more
