Jesus Transforms

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 13, 2025

Transformation is at the heart of the gospel. Jesus does not only save; He changes lives completely. When a person encounters Jesus, they are never the same again. He takes the broken, the lost, and the weak and turns them into vessels of honour.

The Transforming Fire Of God SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 7, 2023

Exploring Exodus 3, we observe how an ordinary bush becomes a vessel for God's presence. It serves as God's dwelling place, His mouthpiece, and a site of purity and transformation. It ultimately stands as an everlasting witness to God's power and glory.

It is this: Without God's fire, a bush is just a bush. In Exodus chapter three, we read about a regular thorn bush that caught Moses' attention ...read more

The Ministry Of Thorns

Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 24, 2019

Often people feel like they are disqualified from ministry because they have some weakness or trouble. The very opposite may be true; their weakness may especially qualify them to be used as God best vessel. Our weakness becomes His strength.

Jars Of Clay Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 18, 2023

So don’t think you have to be perfect to minister the gospel of Jesus Christ. As a matter of fact think just the opposite. God uses broken vessels to be heralds of hope. It shows that it is God and not us who has all surpassing power.

God Who Exalts

When we have hearts like Moses, humility like Joshua and diligence like Joseph we can be assured that the Lord will elevate us so we can become useful vessels whom He can use for His glory.

Today’s meditation is taken from Joshua 3:7, “And the LORD said to Joshua, "Today, I will begin to magnify you in the sight of all Israel so that they may know that I will be with you, as I was with Moses.” (AFV) The Lord told Joshua that He would exalt him in the sight of all the Israelites. ...read more
