    God Will Carry You

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 11, 2014
     | 20,373 views

    Paul says he can do everything through Christ who gives him strength. He understands the sufficiency, sphere and the source of God's strength.

    “I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” (Phil 4:13) • This is a verse we all love. We’ve seen it on bookmarks, cups, t-shirts, bumper stickers… It is a line we all like because it is very positive. • In fact, some people take this verse out of ...read more

    Amazement Is Not Faith In God

    Contributed by William R. Nabaza on Jun 14, 2015
     | 2,537 views

    To show in GOD's WORDS that astonishment, amazement is still not faith, you have to have faith in your heart that will declare your heart's content before GOD.

    I. EXORDIUM: Don't be amazed just believe? John 14:1 John 14:1 DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me. II. AUDIENCE PROFILE: Believers III. ...read more

    James - Servant Of God Series

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on Jan 7, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,167 views

    The way that JAMES introduces himself tells us that he possesses the character trait of HUMILITY. Today we want to learn about that character trait so that we can apply it to the way that we relate to others.

    James, Servant of God James 1:1 How do you introduce yourself? The way you introduce yourself says a lot about you. SOME.... Tell you their life story. SOME.... Ask questions about the other person. SOME.... Wait to be introduced. Whether it is on a RESUME, or at a PARTY, or your FIRST DAY at a ...read more

    What do you know about God in the beginning?

    “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated ...read more

     | 14,369 views

    Under spiritual and physical attack can be frightening. Elisha's account of his experience with the army of Aram ought to give us faith, knowing the God of Angel Armies is with us.

    THE GOD OF ANGEL ARMIES 2 Kings 6:8-23 2 Kings 6:8 Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel. Elisha served as the prophet of God for 50-60 years.

    The technologies and the science were diverting our trust from God to this man-made lifeless stuff. Today  I have entitled my sermon as Turn and trust in God alone. Today's message theme or purpose is that you turn from these idols to the Living God.

    Greetings to you in the sweet name of Lord Jesus Christ. I consider it my great privilege to share the Word of God with you. We are going through one of the toughest situations in human history. We know these things are inevitable or unavoidable. This pandemic is not the worst or the last, these ...read more

    Ever since Adam's Fall, God has been seeking to reconcile the wanderers.

    Through all the ages, the God of the Bible has been and is a missionary God! Because God created all things and all people, the message of the Bible includes every human being. From the beginning, Scripture presents the search of God, not only for Abraham or Israel, but for people from every ...read more

    The Subject Of Labor For God

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Feb 28, 2012
     | 5,163 views

    The believer is supposed to labor for God. Sounds like work! The believer’s life is to be focused on the will and work of God. A Christian’s purpose for being on earth is to serve God, to obey and work for Him.

    We’re still at the well with Jesus and the Samaritan woman. The woman has gone to town and witnessed to the people there about seeing the Messiah. The people responded to her witness and came to see for themselves. So this morning, we discuss the subject of labor for God. The believer is ...read more

    Resurrection begins in us when we walk in obedience to God.

    Resurrection. We are a people of resurrection. We have crosses displayed because of what Jesus did for us willingly there, but the true miracle is in the empty tomb. But how do you put that on a chain around your neck right? Without resurrection we don’t have faith; we have a cult of ...read more

    "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." We have to completely give ourselves to God because we belong to him. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. Over the centuries, Christians have struggled with the issue of the church and the state. At one point in time, the Roman Catholics took over the state. The Church controlled the State and the results ...read more
