    The Prayer God Will Always Answer

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 10, 2021
     | 4,280 views

    Praying with confidence requires us to know God and to know what He has promised. Then, when we present the requests prompted by God's promise, we must defer to Him so that He is honoured in us.

    “In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, by descent a Mede, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans—in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived in the books the number of years that, according to the word of the LORD to Jeremiah the prophet, must pass before the end of ...read more

     | 3,090 views

    This is the 32nd sermon from a series on the Gospel of John. In this sermon we look at how Jesus delayed his coming to Mary and Martha after Lazarus' death, and why He did that. As well as why it's so important to know Jesus, rather than just know about Him.

    How Love Looks (Part 32) Text: John 11:1-16 Well it’s good to see you all this morning. Last Sunday, we had originally intended to go out to Arkansas to celebrate my dad’s birthday. And we did get to spend time with him on his birthday, but not at his house… in the hospital. I think most of you ...read more

    THE PATIENCE OF THE LORD. 2 Peter 3:8-15a. 2 PETER 3:8. Peter wishes to emphasize to his “beloved” friends that the longer the Lord’s delay, the more time there is for repentance.

    It is because of delayed judgment that many Christians have no "fear" of the Lord.

    Fear of the Lord – Do we have it? Scripture Text: Leviticus 10:1-7; 1 Samuel 2:12-17. 22-25. 27-29; Acts 5:1-14 and 2 Timothy 3:1-6 (Amplified Bible), 2 Timothy 4:3 Last week, we learned about standing still in the midst, but we also learned something else, The Fear of the Lord!

    When we pray there are three possible answers from the Lord, yes, no and wait. We all hate to wait but we need to trust in God's perfect timing.

    Let’s begin with this question: What is the major enemy of hope in your life? What is the one thing that, more than any other, threatens to weaken your hope? Could it be: discouragement, suffering; weariness, exhaustion. Perhaps the main enemy of hope in your life is simply the passage ...read more

    Parable of the Master of the house rising and shutting the door. The danger of delay.

    Please turn in your copy of God¡¯s word to Luke 13 and follow with me as I read verses 25-30.

    One of the greatest weapons the devil uses against us is... the weapon of delay. But delay is not denial. Satan may hinder your answer, but he can't stop it.

    Daniel 10:12-14 Have you ever spoken to someone and you just felt like somehow there was a communication break-down, and so you repeat yourself. But it feels like either you're being ignored or to give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was a very noisy environment, so you say the same ...read more

    God would have us learn a lesson, which reaches far beyond the instance at hand, & casts light on many dark places. God’s delays are delays of love.

    JOHN 11: 1-10 HE WHOM YOU LOVE We learn from verse 17 of this chapter that Lazarus had been dead four days when Christ reached Bethany. The distance from Bethany to the place Christ probably resided when He received the message was about a day’s journey. If we added to the two days on which He ...read more

     | 3,924 views

    Satan doesn’t want you to think about spiritual things. Rather, he only wants us to dwell on our own selfish desires. Avoid the temptation to delay any thoughts of spiritual self-examination, and make it a priority to encourage others for self-examination

    Opening illustration: During any war, the enemy’s strategy is to conceal/hide some important information from the adversary so that they will not be successful in their endeavor.
