    based on 18 ratings
     | 3,619 views

    We desire, and expect God’s forgiveness when we ask. But it is so hard to offer that forgiveness to others when they sin against us.

    Forgive? Who Me? Matthew 18:21-35 I remember this story about a famous person in American history, and for the life of me, I can’t remember who it was. Anyway, this person was asked one Sunday afternoon about the worship service he attended that morning. “What did the preacher preach about?” ...read more

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jan 8, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,880 views

    Some argue that we don't need to express our desires to God because He already knows what we want without us saying it. Some think that without asking, God will give us what we need. What does the Bible teach about expressing our wishes to God or asking God to provide us with our desires?

    What are your hopes and wishes for 2023? Some hope this year will be healthier or no new diseases will emerge. Some hope to meet God soon because of their old age and weaker body condition. Like Tante Christine, she expressed her desire to move on from life in this world during our visit. On Dec. ...read more

     | 16,353 views

    Most spend their lives living nominal Christian lives with little or no power. If you and I desire to be more than mundane believers and to have power with God I believe we need to have four key elements – humility, faith, perseverance, and holiness.

    Having Power with God Genesis 32:22-30 Jacob spent a night encountering God. At the end of that night his name was changed from “Jacob” which means “supplanter”, “heel catcher”, or “deceiver” to Israel meaning “having power with God”. Jacob was changed. No longer was he going to live his way. As ...read more

    Contributed by Zacch Olorunnipa on Dec 13, 2020
     | 8,878 views

    This life is not about me; it's all about Him! God wants the glory and will receive the glory. He is a jealous God and will not share that glory with anyone or anything else. This kicks against me slightly - because I feel that desire for glory too, yet

    Why is the ocean blue? Why are leaves green? Why do birds sing? Why did Jesus die a criminal's death? One simple reason: because God wanted it that way. He exists, creates, and loves ... for Himself (Isaiah 46:9-10). This life is not about me; it's all about Him! God wants the glory and will ...read more
