     | 8,986 views

    Christianity is all about a relationship with our Creator and one way of enhancing the relationship is through Quiet Time or personal devotion. If we are faithful to this age-long practice we will have a deeper and closer walk with God.

  • Studying For Divine Approval

     | 8,243 views

    The apostolic charge to every preacher and teacher of the word is "study". Our ministry will lack the substance of divine approval and saving, sanctifying power without the diligent study of the Word of God on daily basis.

    STUDYING FOR DIVINE APPROVAL 2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” Paul was Timothy’s mentor, pastor and leader. He understood perfectly Timothy’s shortcomings as a young pastor under his tutelage. To ...read more

     | 3,867 views

    One of the most amazing privileges of believers is access to God through prayer. We all face trials and tribulations but praying will help us overcome. Why? Because a praying saint can lay down in trouble and wake up to a miracle. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

    Subject - Effective Fervent Prayer Invites Divine Intervention Scripture - Acts 12:5-11 “So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him. 6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries ...read more

    Duty and devotion are both necessary but there must be a balance. A balance where neither one would hinder us from exhibiting the other.

    Last time we were together we looked at the famous story of Mary and Martha. We concluded that the Lord wants us to be like Mary in our worship, and like Martha in our work. Duty and devotion are both necessary but there must be a balance. A balance where neither one would hinder us from ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,731 views

    The route to the experience of the presence of God is earnest desire to seek Him. God will not draw near to us if we have no thirst and hunger for His fellowship.

    INTIMACY WITH GOD: OUR SOULS’ DESPERATE NEED Psalms 42:1 “As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God” In these days of abysmal disconnect from God, the most fitting inspirational counsel is “Draw nigh to God” James 4:8. Our hearts are prone to wander away ...read more

     | 1,703 views

    Abraham discovered that real LIFE is about walking with God! Getting to know God! And in the text Paul tells us that God still wants people to walk with Him by faith.

    based on 1 rating
     | 15,515 views

    Jesus asked a perplexing question that continues to cause confusion and uncertainty - who is my family? His focus was not to appease His brothers, but to please His Father. Our relationship with Christ, and devotion to Him, must exceed all else.

    Being in the Family Mark 3: 31-35 Our text today reveals an encounter that was difficult for many to accept. Very likely the intentions of our Lord were misunderstood and misrepresented. Even today, as we consider these verses, this passage remains difficult for many to comprehend and accept. As ...read more
