Your People Shall Be Delivered

Hagar, A Mother Sees God Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Hagar was an Egyptian servant girl in the house of Abraham and Sarah. She was a comparative nobody, but she became a somebody that God used to change history by her motherhood.

Sarah was the oldest mother in the Bible, and likely the oldest woman to ever have a baby. She was 90 years old when she gave birth to Isaac. This is not a record many are striving to match or break, so it is likely to stand for all time. Abraham is the father of Judaism, Islam and Christianity. ...read more

Breaking The First Four Seals Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 11, 2012

The events that we will see with the seals are not the end of history itself. They are events that precede the end. The seals have to be broken before the book can be opened. This is exactly what Christ had said.

Now the time has come. God’s book—the Book of Destiny, the book that spells out what is to happen in the end time—is now to be opened. We need to note that the Lamb doesn’t open the book at this point. He merely breaks open the seals. The events that we will see with the ...read more

Countdown To War Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 25, 2011

The four horsemen - war, slaughter, famine, death and pestilence - have accompanied humanity since the dawn of time; they remind us of our sin, and God's judgment, and his ultimate control over all of history.

When I mapped out this year’s preaching schedule I did not - repeat NOT - know that war with Iraq would begin the week the seals on the scroll detailing the fate of the world would be opened and the four horsemen let loose. And I’m not egotistical enough to think that God arranged the ...read more

An Outline Of Acts 13:1-12

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Aug 26, 2022

Acts 13 is a turning point in the history of the Church. Barnabas and Saul were personally selected by the Holy Spirit for a special mission. They left Antioch, preached through Cyprus, and experienced several things.

Introduction: Acts 13 could serve as a turning point in the Church’s story. The first 12 chapters are primarily concerned with the beginning of the Church and the issues facing the Church near Jerusalem.

911 Where Were You?

Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Sep 8, 2011

I would say that most everyone knew where they were on that day in history but, where was God? Why would a good and loving God allow such a tragedy to happen?

911 Where were you? The date was September 11, 2001. Where were you when you heard the tragic news 10 years ago and the day that changed America forever? I remember that day well. I was working at RJR and a co worker came over to my desk and said a plane had crashed into a building in New York ...read more
