Burning Coals

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Feb 26, 2014

We recently reintroduced a song which contained the lyrics "Take the coal, cleanse my lips, here I am". Most of the people in the church had no idea what they meant. Sadly, this is not unusual. Isaiah 6 was a great study of the coal from the altar of God!

Have you ever been driving somewhere and your mind is wandering and suddenly you realize, “How did I get here?” Are we ever like that in a worship service or when we go over our memory Scriptures or when we are singing in worship? What a beautiful song, "Take me into the holy of ...read more

Heaps Of Burning Coals

Contributed by Tammy Garrison on Aug 12, 2002

This continues a series on the book of Romans. An extreme gift of grace calls for an extreme response. Paul calls us to love our enemies. Sometimes God’s grace calls us to places we’d rather not go.

This summer we have been traveling the Roman Road Of Salvation with Paul. We began by hearing that there is nothing we can do to earn God’s grace. We will never merit the love God has for us. No matter how good we are, or how bad we can be, God still loves us. Our wrong doings separates us from ...read more

Isaiah And The Coal Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

Whenever you see an awakening taking place, you see people crying out to God in confession of sin. Sometimes this can be gradual, where God’s people really listen to the preaching of the Word. And at other times, there’s a sudden change as if an invisible thunderbolt from heaven comes down.

Introduction A revival is a time when sleepy Christians wake up, when nominal Christians convert to Christ, and when non-Christians come to faith in Christ. This is accompanied by an increase in the conviction of sin, an increase in the consciousness of God’s mercy and our unworthiness. You see, a ...read more

No More Bridge Burning!

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Nov 16, 2008

We cannot call ourself a Christian and leave relationships! Life is all about relationships. Relationships require constant attention; they are never maintenance free. Every good and lasting relationship is based on love.

No More Bridge Burning I Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way.

The Burning Bush Call Of Moses Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 3, 2022

Moses put his neck on the line once. And he felt like a failure. Is he willing to be that vulnerable again? Is he willing to trust God with his life? That is the challenge of Moses. That is the challenge for everyone who follows the call of God.

The call of God is as unique for every individual as is every person. For Gideon it was the fleece and that differs widely from Ezekiel and his lofty falling facedown vision of the throne of God. Isaiah with the burning coal placed on his lips differs from Paul on the Damascus Road and his ...read more
