    There is much that we can learn from the way David reacts to his circumstances in the cave of Adullam.

    Introduction: A. I thought we would start with a little humor from some cartoons I came across this week. 1. “Peter finds his faith much stronger in the winter.” Walking on the water is nothing if the water is frozen! 2. “Another Eskimo baptism gone bad.” The preacher should have kept his ...read more

    Coming From Out Of The Middle Of The Pack

    Contributed by Joe Rowland on Jun 25, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,898 views

    I believe that most Christians are in the middle of where they can be in God. They don’t want to go too far for fear of what God might expect out of them. I believe that we need to break out from the middle and start heading to the lead of the pack.

    Coming From Out Of The Middle Of The Pack Isaiah 55:6-13 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,912 views

    God not only wants all men to be saved, but to also be surrendered to His will. Salvattion is but half of the equation. Unless the saint beoomes surrendered to the will of God, he cannot grow in grace, or be useful to an all-powerful God.

    Surrendered Saints Text: Rom.12: 1-2 Intro: Stephen F. Olford has said, “What God wants today is new men, rather than new methods; surrendered people, rather than just saved people, for it is possible to be saved yet not surrendered.”(1) One doesn’t have to think about it too long to know that ...read more
