     | 10,483 views

    A message that precedes baptisms.

    Last week, I talked about how God put it into Phillip’s heart to leave a great harvest revival in Samaria to go to the deserts outside Jerusalem so he could talk to one person about Jesus Christ. And I told you how Phillip went. He didn’t question God, he didn’t try to put God off, and he ...read more

    An illustration of the obedience that Christians should have by looking closely at the life of Abraham

    Hebrews 11:8-10 Sometime after the destruction of Babel; after speech had been confused by God; God chose Abram (Abraham) to the the Father of all Nations. God disrupted his day by instructing Abraham to leave his home. Up to this point, Abraham was a pagan, living in Ur; a sinful city of sorts. ...read more

    Arabian horses go through rigorous training in the deserts of the Middle East. The trainers require absolute obedience from the horses, and test them to see if their training is complete.

    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

    Joshua – A Portrait Of Obedience

     | 3,953 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.

    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

     | 586 views

    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

    Are We Being Obedient?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jul 10, 2023
     | 559 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

    Joseph is the unsung hero of Christ's early life. Through obedience, he impacted Mary, he impacted Jesus, he impacted the other children, and I think he impacted Jesus’ entire ministry.

    Sometimes there's words that we just don't like. Sometimes it's because of the way they sound. Some sound weird or sometimes they conjure up something kind of gross. One word that I don't like is the word ‘maggot.’ Really, if you think of maggots, is anything pleasant ever really ...read more

    The Four Faces Of Obedience

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 17, 2023
     | 4,475 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
     | 1,776 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

    To emphasize the themes of obedience, faith, God's provision, and its foreshadowing of Jesus Christ's ultimate sacrifice.

    Good morning, church family. This morning we're going to dive deep into one of the most powerful stories in the Bible – the story of Abraham and Isaac from Genesis 22. Before we get into it, I'd like to share a quote with you from a respected Christian author, Philip Yancey. He once said, "Faith ...read more
