    Thanksgiving

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Oct 3, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 41,969 views

    This message explores the reasons we have to give God thanks. Our choice to give God thanks should not rest on Him doing something for us - but for what He has already done through His Son and what He continues to do.

    Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 92:1-4; Psalm 107:8, 15; First Thessalonians 5:18 The title of my message this morning is “Thanksgiving.” This has been a difficult year and some people may be struggling with the idea of being thankful.

    God allows storms in our life so that we can experience the power and the presence of Christ.

    One of my favorite stories is about Chippie the parakeet. Chippie was a happy little bird, content every day to sit on his perch, swinging and singing to his little heart’s content. One day Chippie’s owner took the initiative to clean out his cage. She took off the attachment from the end of the ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,804 views

    The Word of God can be understood when we let the Holy Spirit speak to us through faith.

    Text: “Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can understand it?’” (John 6:60). Has anyone ever told you something that was really hard to believe? When we were very young, we usually believed whatever people told us because we didn’t think they ...read more

    The Faith That Conquers All Fear

    Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011
     | 7,643 views

    As we saw last week, there are four possible levels we can reach, but what we didn’t cover is that there is one common denominator that exists in these four possible levels. And the common denominator is faith.

    Last week we explored the different levels that exist in our relationship with God. In that study we found that our strength to withstand the enemy’s attacks depends on the level of our relationship with God. As we saw last week, there are four possible levels we can reach, but what we ...read more

    Receiving Treasure In Heaven

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,447 views

    Our treasure on earth eclipses our desire for "treasure in heaven." Only God can give us a desire for "treasure in heaven." Therefore, we must forsake our treasure on earth and follow Jesus to receive "treasure in heaven."

    You will notice how this passage begins. We are told that Jesus ‘was setting out on his journey’ (v. 17). And we know where that journey will lead. It will take Jesus to Jerusalem, where a cross awaits Him. He has already foretold His death twice in recent days, and He will speak of it again—in ...read more
