    The bitterness that we feel when we first realise what we have done is compared to the bitterness of losing an only son. Perhaps in this we begin to understand what it cost the LORD God to secure the free gift of our salvation.

    GRACE, REPENTANCE, FORGIVENESS. Zechariah 12:10; Zechariah 13:1. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ loved us before we loved Him (1 John 4:19). God ‘so loved’ us that He sent His Son Jesus into this world to die for our sins (John 3:16). Christ died and rose again, and ever intercedes ...read more

    This is a continuation of the Bitter or Better Sermon and deals with wanting something that is not yours.

    Forgiveness releases your heart from the prison of bitterness and opens the door to God’s healing, mercy, freedom, and restored relationships.

    INTRO – THE HARDEST COMMAND AND THE SWEETEST FREEDOM There are certain things Jesus says that sound beautiful when you read them on the page… and then they hit like a hammer when you realize He means them. “Love your enemies.” “Bless those who curse you.” “Pray for those who despitefully use ...read more

    Unforgiveness keeps us in chains and blocks us from peace and joy...It paralyzes and holds us captive. When we choose to forgive, we are set free from bitterness and hate. We are set free!

    Please Release Me Colossians 3:12-15 “Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

    Recently had to deal with a bitter root that showed up in church. I had been reading Tale of 3 Kings just prior. Decided to speak about the Saul in me, rather than the Saul in others.

    Dealing With Spear Throwers PPT 1 Message Title In John 14:2 Jesus said, "I go to prepare a place for you." That verse primarily concerns heaven, but I want to take the thought of a prepared place and alter it slightly to say that not only does God prepare a place for us, but He also prepares us ...read more

    The kingship was given by God to Saul, but unfortunately he took the grace of God for granted and did all kinds of evil. He lived against the will and purpose of God. Finally ended up his life in disgrace, dishonor and shameful manner. He brought curse.
