    Enoch Walked With God Series

    Contributed by Stephen Wright on Apr 13, 2003
    based on 64 ratings
     | 33,035 views

    Introduction to series of 4 studies in the life of Enoch, focussing on his walk with God

    Enoch In Genesis 5 time after time we read, “And he died.” Eight times in all. It seems a depressing genealogy that we can quickly skip over. It reminds us only of the consequences of Adam’s disobedience and the one certainty in life since. In verses 21 to 24, however, we have a notable exception. ...read more

    What was it about Enoch’s life that resulted in the commendation of Hebrews 11:5 Enoch … had this testimony, that he pleased God.

    He pleased God – Heb 11:5 Hebrews 11:5 Enoch … had this testimony, that he pleased God. What a wonderful epitaph – Enoch pleased God – or at least it would have been if there had been a tombstone to write it on! (More on that another time.) What won him this commendation? In one way the question is ...read more

    When you feel that you’ve been used and abused to the point of wanting to throw in the towel, remeber these words.

    dealing with backsliding

    ABRAM’S LAPSE OF FAITH Genesis 12: 10-20 INTRODUCTION: A. Up until this moment in Abram’s life, he has been a model of what a believer should be 1. Galatians 3 tells us that God preached ther gospel unto Abram and he believed and that it was counted unto him ...read more

    Most of us have good intentions about serving God. But when it comes to sin and the subject of obedience, good intentions don’t cut it.

    TEXT: Numbers 22:1-38 (READ) INTRO: How many of you would agree with me that God’s ways are best? OK…How many of you that agree God’s ways are best can also say with me that knowing God’s ways are best hasn’t always meant you chose God’s way over your own way?

    Rizpah

    based on 135 ratings
     | 47,488 views

    Rizpah, though insignificant in status, proved to be the focus of two defining events in the life of God’s people. It is from her story I hope we can learn some valuable lessons!

    Introduction: Rizpah (Riz-puh) was a concubine of King Saul who had bore Saul two sons. She is, in one sense, a very insignificant character. As a concubine, she had very little status nor influential power. Concubines were considered as “secondary wives,” they were inferior to the ...read more

    What Can A Donkey Teach A Jackass?

     | 17,871 views

    What an amazing and terrifying thought! To deliberately and purposefully oppose the will of God is to make God your adversary.

    --------------------------------------- 21 So Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab. 22 Then God’s anger was kindled because he went, and the angel of the LORD stood in the way to oppose him. Now he was riding on his donkey, and his two servants ...read more

    Why not, everyone else is doing it.

    It¡¦s not very big, it¡¦s just a little book, only 92 pages long, and they¡¦re not very big pages either, but then again it¡¦s based on a very small portion of scripture. The Prayer of Jabez hit the book stands last year and became the surprise best seller of the year. I¡¦m sure that when Bruce ...read more

    I Know History; I Do Not Know Myself Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 4, 2002
    based on 31 ratings
     | 9,768 views

    It is one thing to know history and theology; it is another entirely to understand our own hearts. Job’s pilgrimage into self-understanding led to self-hatred, but in Christ that can be redeemed.

    I’ll ask you to repeat with me this wonderful, ringing affirmation from the New Testament: But I am not ashamed, for I know the one in whom I have put my trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that day what I have entrusted to him. I know. I know the one in whom I have put my trust. ...read more

    This Ain't No Fish Story

     | 7,105 views

    Why is it that we don’t share our faith in Christ more? Maybe Jonah can shed some light on the subject. Learn 5 attitudes that keep us from reaching others from his life.

    This Ain’t No Fish Story! I want to tell you a story this morning about a fish. But it’s anything but a “fish story”. Most of us can probably remember the story of “Jonah & the Whale” from our Sunday School days, but maybe now that we’re all grown up, we kind of put it in the same category as ...read more

    A strong lesson from two relatively unknown Old Testament characters. What can we learn from these two women? Much!

    If you are a student of the Old Testament, you are well aware of the strong women characters featured in the book of Genesis. The stories of many of these women, such as Sarah, Rebekah, and Rachel are given to us in much detail. Through the Genesis text we gain a rich insight into their ...read more

    I Know You Are Watching Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 10, 2002
    based on 29 ratings
     | 5,318 views

    When we consider that God is watching us, we may ask, as Job did, whether He is watching us to hurt us, to humiliate us, or to rescue us. Actually He is watching us in love to empower us.

    “I can’t let you out of my sight for one minute.” How many parents here have ever said that? “I can’t let you out of my sight for one minute.” How many have said it at least a thousand times? You said it to a small child, bent on doing something that would hurt. You said it to an older ...read more

    Abigail

     | 100,831 views

    In this lesson, we are going to study a lady of great character and intelligence – her name is Abigail. All we know about her is summed up in this one chapter, yet she comes through as one of the most notable women in the Old Testament!

    Introduction: The Bible is full of great stories! I’ve heard it said if you are looking for a mystery, or a thriller, or a love story, or one containing a great hero or heroine – whatever your desire, you can find it in the Bible. The text before us, in this study, is certainly one of the ...read more

    Broken - Then Mended Series

    based on 256 ratings
     | 27,003 views

    This is sermon one of seven on the value of being broken before God. This sermon is a study of Job.

    In one day Job lost everything. He lost all his material goods first. Job 1: 14 a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby, 15 and the Sabeans attacked and carried them off. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has ...read more
