    With GPS we can know within 1 foot of where we are on planet Earth. But do we know where we are with God? Sin blinds us to our location and prevents us from know the way, but it is God who seeks us and asks us "where are you?"

    How many of you know what this is? (hold up a paper/fold out road map). We use to navigate all of the country with these. Now we have our smart phones with GPS (Global Positioning System) GPS systems have become very cost efficient and everyone , it seems, has access to one. The satellite system ...read more

    Today's End Times Doctrine is about the judgment of God, as we look at the "Book of Life," the "White Throne Judgment of God," and the "Judgment Seat of Christ."

    End Times Doctrine “The Judgment of God” ** Watch at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RShVBBGano The church today lacks a healthy fear of God.

    The Prophet Haggai’s message from the Lord was plain and simple: It’s time to get back to the Lord’s work.

    In 520 BC, the prophet Haggai (Hag-eye) recorded four messages to the Jewish people of Jerusalem, eighteen years after their return from exile in Babylon (538 BC). Haggai 2:3 seems to indicate that the prophet had seen Jerusalem in all her glory, before the destruction of the temple, and the ...read more

    In this message we look at beautiful actions by God for His earthly people. They will call on Him, and He answers with transformation of the people and the land. He (Messiah) will be their God and they shall be His people, regathered and restored.

    The Secret Of Spiritual Power

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Apr 3, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 496 views

    Christians today are encouraged to seek more power, more anointing, and more gifts. Indeed, as the Lord calls us back to the Cross to become disciples of Jesus, He intends to first humble us before empowering us.

    The basic need of a disciple of Jesus Christ is not seeking for more power from God, but more brokenness. Apostle Paul says in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in ...read more
