God called Mary and Joseph to serve him… And Mary and Joseph began a journey of faith that began in a valley of fear.

The first of two messages based on Ephesians 2:10. The work that God does in our lives is based on His grace that makes us into masterpieces.

Praying From Victory (Praying From The New Covenant) Series

Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Apr 21, 2023

The cross of Jesus Christ and His resurrection changed everything FOREVER! To know this is power. The strength of the enemy’s power over the believer is only to the extent of the knowledge of Christ and His finished work that you know.

This is critical to underscore because, often times believers come to God in prayer with the notion or mentality of praying in order to obtain victory in the area of their need. This is not a New Testament or the ...read more

From Proud Towers To Humble Alters

Contributed by Greg Nance on Oct 19, 2013

After Noah and his family began to populate the earth again, people once again left God's way and tried to do things their own way. Bad idea. God's way requires humble obedience, not proud power. Jesus told Paul,

Genesis 9-12 lead us from Great Towers to Humble Alters. God’s way of blessing is often counter intuitive. God choses the humble, the weak, the despised, the things that are nothing to bless and through whom to accomplish His purposes of redemption for all mankind. The Lord told Paul, ...read more
