    2. We refuse to depend on the flesh. Hear me, “Anyone can carry a gun.” Anyone can be a bully on the internet. I believe saints ought to confront human weapons with spirit?

     | 2,179 views

    God demands holiness and perfection from his children. As saints of God, believers must strive to constantly abide in God's presence and depend wholly on him to attain perfection.

    TEXT: 1 Peter 5:10 "But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you."

    Explore how the story of Jonah teaches us that God prepares us for suffering, salvation, and complete dependence on Him, and that our deepest hurts can often lead to God's greatest blessings.

    Good morning, church family. Today, we're diving deep into the heart of the Book of Jonah. This isn't just a story about a man being swallowed by a big fish, although that's the part we tend to remember. No, Jonah's story is about so much more. It's about how God prepares us for suffering, for ...read more

    The Gift Of Interpretation Of Tongues Series

    Contributed by Donna Kazenske on Nov 17, 2002
    based on 57 ratings
     | 7,949 views

    The gift of interpretation of tongues is the least gift of all the utterance gifts because it has to depend upon another gift in order for it to operate. It cannot function unless the gift of tongues has been in operation.

    By: Donna J. Kazenske 1 Cor. 12:7-10 - "But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom, through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another the gift of faith by the same Spirit, to another ...read more

    In light of Mother's Day, we must depend on God to do what only God can do, but we also must give what we have if we are to truly join in the process.

    Intro On this Mother‟s Day we are reminded of the profound role of a parent. I believe that a mother is nothing less than a mediator of God‟s love. A mother is role that is by nature giving… sacrificially giving of life. They give nourishment from their own resources… and ...read more

    If the Apostle Paul Were to Write A Christmas Letter…it would be all about YOU. And what Paul has to say about you depends on what he has to say about Christ.

    I have a confession to make. It’s been seven years since I’ve written a Christmas letter. I know, I know. I have no excuses. Everyone else is busy at this time of year and yet manages to get a Christmas letter written, edited, addressed, and posted to a million family and friends. If I were to ...read more

    This is a time of profound darkness, when many things we have depended on fail. We may be among the curious crowd or the concerned companions, but we will eventually see. Who will be the next converted centurion?

    When you are suddenly plunged into darkness, that darkness is profound, and you cannot see anything. But wait a while, let your eyes adjust, and if there is a glimmer of light anywhere, you will begin to see and you will make your way through. The darkness will not be quite as dismal as you first ...read more

    The story of the Tower of Babel is a sad description of the breakdown of fellowship, of failure in communication, growing isolation and confusion. It all results from human beings failing to live in dependence on God, becoming proud of their achievements.

    When You Look At God, Who Do You See?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 13, 2020
     | 7,767 views

    Our view of God depends upon our perspective. Sinners see God as vengeful; saints see God as a refuge. Thus, our relationship to God determines how we view Him.

    “The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and wrathful; the LORD takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, and the LORD will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the ...read more
