    Sitting Before The Lord

     | 17,881 views

    In an age when people have lost the art of solitude and contemplation, God is waiting for us to SIT before Him. But it matters HOW we sit.

    READ: 2 SAMUEL 7 (Text: v18) There’s something about our culture — we find it very hard to SIT STILL for any length of time. We’ve lost the art of solitude. No time for contemplation. I’m sure King David was a busy man — he had a whole kingdom to run — and yet it’s quite obvious that he still ...read more

    He Is Sovereignly Able

    God’s kindness for His people transcends their wildest dreams! What He is willing to give they don’t even contemplate to ask from Him.

    “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us” (Eph. 3:20). Do we really know what the Almighty God can do for us? Are we aware how much favor He wants to give? If we have any idea of the great things He can shower on ...read more

    God is truly Sovereign and does just as He pleases. In this sermon, we will contemplate the reality that God does not need us and that His plans are never thwarted.

    Crucified For Us Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 3, 2017
     | 3,323 views

    The fact that so long a portion of the Gospels is dedicated toward describing how Jesus suffered for us suggests we need to contemplate those events thoroughly.

    Crucified for Us Mark 15:21-32 1. This week, I came across a Jewish version of a joke I tell every year at camp. 2. Three Jewish sons left home, went out on their own and prospered. Getting back together, they discussed the gifts hey were able to give their elderly mother. The first said, ...read more

    Solid Faith: Best Way To Avoid The Slippery Slope Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 17, 2018
     | 4,552 views

    The road to deeper faith comes through contemplating the Word, the discipline God sends our way or allows, and faithful perseverance. This deeper faith helps us resist the "slippery slope."

    Solid Faith: Best Way to Avoid the Slippery Slope (Hebrews 12:1-17) 1. A mother asked her son, “What did you learn about or do in school today?” Son replied, “We studied explosives and even made some.” “Really?” the mom responded. “And what will you do at school tomorrow?” The boy answered, “What ...read more

    It can be of great encouragement to be aware that ‘God Remembers’. We have a God who ‘cares about our concerns’, who ‘contemplates our conversations’ and who ‘chronicles our commitments’.

     | 4,429 views

    All of the traits are to be connected with Christ, of course, but the Apostle Paul seems to emphasize the connection between peace and Christ. What happens when we contemplate the “peace of Christ”?

    Colossians 3:15 Ruled by Peace 1/18/15 D. Marion Clark Introduction You are wearing the perfect outfit. Every part looks good; they all match; and they fit the occasion.

    The Ten Commandments

    In the LORD's schoolroom, the pass-mark is 100% - so contemplating the Law of God, summarily comprehended in the Ten Commandments, should drive us to Christ as our only hope!

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. Exodus 20:1-17. The first thing that we notice about the Ten Commandments is that they are the words of God (Exodus 20:1). Secondly we notice that the LORD is the God who has redeemed us (Exodus 20:2). It is not the keeping of the Ten Commandments which saves us: salvation ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,155 views

    This is without a doubt the best known and most frequently used benediction. It comes after contemplating a marvelous spiritual experience; it is no wonder Paul burst forth in a doxology, a fitting benediction for such a prayer.

    Bend thy soul to study eternity, busy thyself about the life to come, habituate thyself to such contemplation, and let not those thoughts be seldom and cursory (Hasty), but be thyself in heavens delight.

    Eternity—I Got Heaven On My Mind. 1 Corinthians 2:9NIV In his classical devotional book titled the Saints Everlasting Rest, English Puritan Pastor and Arthur Richard Baxter 1615-1691 wrote, why are not our hearts continually set on heaven?

    The disciples faced profound fear and confusion as they contemplated life without Jesus' physical presence, but Christ assured them—and us—that He is the way, the truth, and the life.
