    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 8, 2011
     | 3,736 views

    Jesus came to take away sin; the sin of the United States is a sin against life. Only prayer, fasting and clear, urgent action can move us in the right direction.

    Baptism of the Lord Jesus January 9, 2010 Today’s Gospel relates one of the big questions of the early Church. All four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles relate at least once the story of the baptism of Jesus by John. John’s baptism was a baptism of repentance. Those who came to John were ...read more

    We are to direct people’s attention to Jesus. We have faith in the Person of Jesus, not faith in ’faith’ or our efforts. The more you know Him, the stronger your faith.

    It is not an everyday affair that you see a miracle. These men just did and they were shocked. • The people stared at Peter and John as if they were the ones who made this man walked (v.12). • Peter directed the people’s attention to JESUS. He did not explain much about the miracle. Acts 3:16 By ...read more

     | 5,802 views

    Prayer is the final component to the Armor of God. It is the source of power that is necessary to enable us not only to stand but to engage the enemy to ultimate victory in Christ. Prayer directs, equips, and empowers us.

    Put On Each Piece With Prayer Ephesians 6:10-13, 18 “Stand up, stand up for Jesus, Stand in His strength alone; The arm of flesh will fail you, You dare not trust your own. Put on the gospel armor, Each piece put on with prayer; Where duty calls or danger, Be never wanting there.” Prayer is the ...read more

    Verse 12 of our text directs us to be followers of them who through faith and patience inherited the promises (them = those listed in Scripture in general and in the book of Hebrews in particular).

    DEALING WITH DISCOURAGEMENT Text: Heb. 6:9-20 Introduction: Discouragement--you know what the word means. We, each one of us, have had our battles with dicouragement. The Lord directs us to cast our cares on Him because He ...read more

    Right God, Wrong Place Series

    For years I thought the only reason the Wisemen came to Jerusalem was to get directions. But I was wrong. What other possible reason could the Wisemen have had for going there?

    My home church met in a huge building. The main sanctuary had four sections of pews that ran back 12 rows or so and the back section had another 2 sets of pews. Then there were two balconies that ran along the sides of the main area. They said they could seat over 600 people in that building. ...read more

    Who's Shaping You? Series

    Like guardrails on the highway, God’s wisdom gives us guidance on how our desire for intimacy can be channeled in an appropriate direction, without bringing harm to us or others.

    Who's Shaping You? Prov. chapter 5: 1-23 Prov. 6:20-35 In our study of the Book of Proverbs we find that the promise of success for the righteous and destruction for the wicked need to read as general principles that are usually—but not always—fulfilled on this side of glory . ...read more

    The Horizontal Shift Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 19, 2021
     | 2,056 views

    Being a disciple of Jesus Christ demands us to surrender in two directions: vertically toward God and then horizontally to serve fellow citizens of the Kingdom. We cannot choose just one.

    The Horizontal Shift (Romans 12:3-8) 1.A customer walked into my clothing shop and asked to see the pants that were advertised in the paper that day. “We don’t have an ad in the paper today,” I told her. She insisted I was wrong, so I got a copy of the paper, and we went through it, eventually ...read more

    Prayer is vital for the believer, but prayer is not so much in the words as it is in the attitude behind those words. This model prayer lays forth a template that guides the believer in the direction of their prayer and the attitude of their heart.

    This sermon/study is a conglomeration of my notes for my church family and a HEAVY dose of help from W.Phillip Keller and his book "A Layman Looks at the Lord's Prayer" I thank Mr. Keller for his inspiring words and depth of understanding of this matter, God has used him mightily to touch so many ...read more
