    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,920 views

    Jesus broke through boundaries to bring the Kingdom of God as a reality in the lives of people that were “outside” the existing community of faith, so that we might see that the call of Jesus to us is that we also would break the boundaries

     | 17,449 views

    In these critical times, violence everywhere, immorality everywhere, wars and rumors of wars, the faith of a good mother is a powerful weapon against the wiles of the devil.

    Introduction: Motherhood is a ministry; the moment the Lord commanded us to be fruitful and multiply was the very moment that the ministry of motherhood began. In life, we generally come across various forms of relationships like father-son, husband-wife, love, friendship and others, but the ...read more

    Psalms: When Darkness Is Your Only Friend (Psalms Of Disorientation: Part 3) Series

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on May 12, 2021
     | 5,226 views

    The basis of this sermon is a sermon preached by Tim Keller on Psalm 88.

    When Darkness Is My Only Friend Introduction Warning: I want to build your faith, but my first point of this sermon is a real downer. The book of Psalms is filled with desperate prayers.

    Tombs And Chains

     | 4,918 views

    Introduction: This passage of scripture that I will be preaching from is surrounded by situations that seem to be impossible to deal with.

    And they are impossible as for as man is concerned. For example, in Mark chapters 4 and 5, we read of situations that only the Lord Jesus could deal with. • In Mark 4:38, Jesus and His disciples were sailing on the Sea of Galilee when a tremendous storm overwhelmed their boat. The storm was so ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 15, 2022
     | 3,463 views

    We want to look at another conversation in the Bible that the Lord had with people He came into contact with daily.

    This is a conversation between Christ and a Phoenician woman. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT HER? We do not know a great deal about this lady, but the Scripture makes it clear: • She was Grecian woman (Gentile) • She was a mother • She was a mother with a serious problem When she came to the Lord we ...read more

    When we love the food, we want to tell everyone about the restaurant.

    Raise your hand if you had a favorite restaurant growing up. I don’t mean fast food. I mean the place you went for birthdays, or homecoming dances. For me, it was Red Lobster. I grew up thinking Red Lobster was just the pinnacle of swank. To this day, I still love Red Lobster. Trish is allergic ...read more

    7 Keys To Revival

    Contributed by Mark Price on May 12, 2006
    based on 21 ratings
     | 9,298 views

    We find a defined prescription for real revival in 2 Chronicles 7:14. The problem is that, like with many precribed orders from our physician, we hesitate to take the medicine.

    Over and over, the Lord spoke to Israel through Jeremiah the prophet saying, "Return to Me." Practically to the very end, He called unto them to return and repent. He admonished them as a loving and faithful Husband would his unfaithful wife. As a Shepherd, He called to His wayward sheep. ...read more

    The wind of the Spirit in the Book of Acts signified the birth of the Church. It empowered the 120 and by night fall had added at least 3000 to their ranks. From 120 to 3120 in 24 hours now that’s Church growth.

    A fresh wind blows IAN JOHNSON Shavuot ("weeks") or Pentecost is one of three Pilgrim Festivals in the Jewish calendar.

    Pentecost 16: We find ourselves on the short end of a spiritual battle. But our help comes from God. He changes the tide of the battle and wins the victory for us through Jesus’ Cross.

    The most scared that I can ever remember being happened when I was about 4 years old. My dad had taken me with him to the Mexican border city of Reynosa. He had gone there to make a purchase.

     | 14,248 views

    There are times in our relationship with GOD that it seems that He conceals Himself from us. What, if anything, is GOD doing when He plays "Hide & Seek" ?

    When god plays Hide And Seek Job 23:8-10 8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him: 9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him: 10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he ...read more
