    Sackcloth and ashes. Fasting and weeping. Tearing clothes and pulling out hair. Lying face down in the dirt. What does repentance look like for New Testament believers? The Prophet Zephaniah reminds of us what believers do when they are repentant.

    Sackcloth and ashes. Fasting and weeping. Tearing clothes and pulling out hair. Lying face down in the dirt. Those are some powerful pictures of repentance, wouldn’t you agree? And what were Old Testament believers saying with these traditions? Wearing clothes made from rough ...read more

    Those Who Seek God But Aren't Really Seeking God Series

    Some of the exiled elders come and sit before Ezekiel as if they are ready to hear from God and God shows Ezekiel that these people aren't really ready to hear His voice and pronounces more judgement, while calling for repentance.

    VERSES 1-5: “Are you talking to ME?” -- God Some of the elders come and place themselves before Ezekiel. This is symbolic of a desire to be instructed by a rabbi. It indicates a desire to hear from God, even if it is half-hearted as we will see in this study. For a moment, ...read more

    When Diligence Becomes Hard Labour

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,665 views

    Diligence is a virtue but when God is taken out of the picture, it becomes a liability characterized by vanity, sorrow, hard labour, restlessness, failure and poverty

    Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep. Ps 127:1-2 Biblical Facts: 1. At every given ...read more

    The Fog - Hide And Seek Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Sep 19, 2023
     | 1,548 views

    The fog has rolled into western culture and choked out intimacy with God. The fog hinders and blocks us from being in an intimate relationship with God. The fog drives us to choose to hide from God rather than seek out His presence! But Jesus is seeking us out even in the fog!

    The Fog Chapter 4 - “Hide and Seek?” Illustration: Have you ever played Hide and Seek – I have with my grandkids – Deklan is the funniest because where he hides is usually in the same place and if you listen you can hear him singing – he loves to sing – at our summer blast I put him on the ponies, ...read more

    Hide And Seek

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 4, 2023
     | 1,145 views

    If God seems hidden, maybe we’re not looking in the right place. We have to move to a different place, stand at a different angle, look from a different perspective, before we can find God in the answer.

    One Sunday morning a little girl in her Sunday best was running so she wouldn’t be late for church. Maybe it was daylight savings time.... As she ran she kept praying, “Dear God, please don’t let me be late to church. Please don’t let me be late to church...” As she was running she tripped and ...read more

    God's Presence - Seeking God For Himself.

    Contributed by Hannah Pinkstone on Dec 13, 2002
    based on 38 ratings
     | 17,737 views

    God wants us to spend time with him. But do we want to spend time with him? How can we? why should we? Do we come to God on his terms or ours?

    I once told a friend that all I wanted was to be happy in God’s presence. And I guess what I’m saying this morning is as a result of the reply I received. Because I was reminded, that I shouldn’t seek God for my own happiness, I should seek him for himself. Seeking God for himself. (But what ...read more

     | 4,559 views

    We are presented with two choices: so accept God as our Father, or to affiliate with the father of lies.

    Let us pray. Heavenly Father, you have chosen the weak things of this world to shame the strong: send your Holy Spirit to enliven my words, and to open our ears, that your Word may fall as seed upon good ground, prepared for planting and ready to yield a good fruit; we ask this in the Name of the ...read more

    We come to know God by obeying Him.

    I’d like to begin by telling you a little story about something that happened to me this week. I took the minivan in for an oil change at the Chrysler dealer. I was sitting in the waiting room, which was empty except for me and one other man. I was a little bored, so I struck up a conversation. And ...read more

    We come to know God through prayer.

    My goal this morning is very simple: to persuade you to pray. Not to persuade you that you ought to pray, or to convince you that prayer is a good thing. That’s not enough. No, what I want is to motivate you to actually do it. So if you leave here today agreeing with everything I said, and if you ...read more

    The remedy for worry, fear, purposelessness, frustration and lack of provision and the recipe for a fulfilled, fruitful and God-pleasing life. (As close to a formula as I ever get!)
