    A Magnificent Hope In The Midst Of Your Trials #1 Series

    Contributed by Ray Searan on Feb 21, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,184 views

    Hope, from the world’s viewpoint is just what that definition describes. The world sees hope as a wish or a desire. Hope, for the world, is a longing for something that may or may not take place. The Bible teaches us a vastly different definition of hope.

    Text: Psalm 27:1-6 Introduction: As I read the words of this psalm, I see the imagery of battle being portrayed in these verses. Words like “enemies” and “adversaries” in verse 2; “host” in verse 3; “war” in verse 3; and “enemies” in verse 6 all speak of warfare. Phrases like “though a host ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,499 views

    Let nothing--nothing!--turn your attention from your snake on the pole--let nothing distract you from your Savior on the cross. Through such seemingly silly ways, God gives to you--not a snake on the pole--but His Son on the cross.

    Introduction That whole snake-on-a-pole thing must have sounded insane to some of the Israelites. Stare at a bronze serpent and you’ll be healed? That sounds ridiculous. It must’ve sounded just silly enough that some Israelites started looking for more reasonable solutions to the ...read more

    It is not uncommon to find people who get so wrapped up in details that lose sight of more important goals. Many Americans seem to become distracted by many things that may seem important at the time but in God’s bigger perspective are mere details

    Jesus was too concerned about the souls of people to get distracted with minor, unimportant matters. If we aren’t focused on Christ, we can become self-absorbed and inwardly focused like the Pharisees, and we’ll miss the harvest.

    Let’s Not Miss The Harvest! Matthew 9 – Part 2 Introduction: 1. Did you know that religious people can be very mean and cold-hearted? People who are religious, but aren’t truly walking with God can be some of the nastiest people you’ve ever met. 2. In Jesus’ day, ...read more

    I often wonder how many times I’ve been distracted by the cares of this life and miss God’s voice? Do you hear His voice? Do you feel his presence? Are you on Mount Carmel or on Mount Horeb?
