    Prayer, Thanks And Obedience

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 4, 2015
     | 4,526 views

    Our lives are to be characterized by prayer. We are to be quick to pray in all circumstances, and not just in emergencies. We are to give thanks in everything through prayer.

    Do you know what the key to a healthy life is? It is healthy emotions, and the healthiest emotion to have is gratitude. Gratitude actually helps our immune system. It makes us more resistant to stress and less susceptible to illness. People who are grateful are happy because they are satisfied with ...read more

    The Four Faces Of Obedience

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 17, 2023
     | 4,873 views

    Christianity is not just a set of beliefs. James said the demons believe and tremble, but their belief doesn't save them, because they don't OBEY God. Our faith should cause us to walk, stand, live, and obey.

    THE FOUR FACES OF OBEDIENCE Gen. 22:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2. One guy invariably left off the cap to the toothpaste and for years his wife had hounded him about it. Finally, ...read more

    Reward For Being Obedient

    Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023
     | 2,033 views

    God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

    THE LORD, OUR OBJECT OF OBEDIENT The one whose voice and command we are to obey is the LORD Himself. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who commanded OUR Father Abraham (Gen. 12:1). In Matthew, it is Christ Jesus Christ. We must learn to obey the Holy Spirit who now works in ...read more

    Are We Being Obedient?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jul 10, 2023
     | 731 views

    In this passage of Scripture, Paul is writing to the Philippians, instructing them to be humble like Christ. How humble are we?

    These verses are presumably from a psalm sung by the early Christian church. The passage holds many equals to the prediction of the suffering servant in Isaiah 53. As a song, it was not intended to be a finished assertion about the nature and work of Christ. Notwithstanding, a few vital attributes ...read more

    Joshua – A Portrait Of Obedience

     | 4,252 views

    If we had to give this sermon a title in the Forbes magazine it would probably go something like: ‘From Obscurity to Fame - How one man did it alone and became a success.’ But if we study the life of Joshua, we soon find that his secret to success was obedience to God’s instructions.

    Joshua – A Portrait of Obedience Pastor Paddick Van Zyl 21-10-2020 Sermon Outline Scripture Reference: Book of Joshua Chapters 1 through 24. Key verse : Joshua 1:5-9 5 No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not ...read more

    When Paul had the vision to go to Macedonia he had to choose to do what was good or what was better.

    Choosing between a good decision and a bad decision is usually pretty simple. It’s not always easy, but It’s usually simple. The choice is usually clear. Good. Bad. But what about when you think you are making a good decision and you’re asked to do something different? Not something bad, ...read more

    This exposition of Philippians 2:12-18 focuses on what New Testament obedience looks like. The dangers of legalism and antinomianism are addressed. Preparations for an uncertain future are discussed as well.

    Intro Our lives have changed significantly since the beginning of 2020. The big question is what changes lie ahead. Will things settle down and stabilize? Or will events become even more volatile? Will the coronavirus subside, or will infections escalate? Will the political divide in this country ...read more

    This devotion is about Jonah's obedience to God's 2nd call to him to go and preach against the people of Ninveveh. This is the 23rd of 31 devotions on the book of Jonah, where a comparison is made between Jonah and The Church-at-large, in the light of the present global pandemic.

    Jonah 3:3-4 - 3 So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, a three-day journey in extent. 4 And Jonah began to enter the city on the first day’s walk. Then he cried out and said, “Yet forty days and Nineveh shall be ...read more

    Prayer And The Obedience Of Faith

    We have access to grace and eternal life with the Blessed Trinity precisely because of their obedience, and our imitation of them by the obedience of faith.

    Saturday of the 29th Week in Course 2023 Our Lord frequently prayed at night, perhaps because His fame spread so widely in a short time that people desperate for help surrounded Him every day (except perhaps the Sabbath). So what did He do when praying? We can learn a great deal from His ...read more

    If we are to live holy lives, it MUST be covered in our obedience

    In the past few weeks, we have examined different areas of how we can be more holy in our Christian walk. First, we examined repentance, how we need to see repentance as transformational in our accepting Christ and further living our lives for Him. Next we considered our connection to God by ...read more

    Bottomline: Joy flourishes when we obey God with faithfulness and serve others in love.

    Defiant joy. It’s not a fleeting happiness tied to circumstances but a resilient, unshakable joy that thrives regardless of what life brings. That’s the kind of joy Paul writes about in his letter to the Philippians. Over the past three weeks, we’ve explored how this joy can flourish in our lives ...read more
