    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 12, 2025
     | 232 views

    Negative dreams and nightmares are not to be feared, but confronted with spiritual authority. God desires to speak to His children through dreams, but the enemy also tries to manipulate the dream realm.

    DEALING WITH NEGATIVE DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Job 33:14-18 "For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; Then he openeth the ears of men, and ...read more

     | 84 views

    In the Garden of Eden, our first parents messed up grievously. They heard the voice of God telling them what to do to care for this earth, and what not to do, and then they listened not to the loving voice of God, but the envious voice of the Horrible Serpent, Satan, our adversary.

    Friday of the 10th Week in Course 2025 I suspect that I’m not the only one here today who has ever felt trapped in a deep well, a hole that has no way out.

    Dealing With Depression And Mental Health Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 30, 2025
     | 117 views

    Depression and mental battles are not foreign to Scripture or to God. He cares, He listens, and He heals. The Church must be a place of restoration, where the emotionally broken are embraced and helped, not judged.

    DEALING WITH DEPRESSION AND MENTAL HEALTH By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Psalm 34:17-19 Supporting Texts: Philippians 4:6-7, 1 Kings 19:4-8, Isaiah 41:10, John 14:27, 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 INTRODUCTION: Depression and mental health struggles are real and rising, even among believers.

    In order to press on, to move forward, in the Christian life, we must first "forget" the past. We must forget the sins of others and our own sins and mistakes; we must forget our successes and failures; we must forget our vision of how our life would turn out.

    My text this morning is a familiar one, from Paul’s letter to the Philippian church, chapter three, verses twelve through fourteen. Let me set the context. Paul begins by listing his credentials as an authentic descendant of Abraham, in rebuttal to those who were attacking him and his message. ...read more
