    based on 2 ratings
     | 11,057 views

    Paul lost all worldly acclaim & possessions, he was beaten and imprisoned. He had a joy that trouble or trials could not shake. How? He says, "I have learned to be content!" That was his secret: content & thankful!

    THE THANKSGIVING SECRET Philippians 4:11-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: SEA OF GALILEE TOURIST BOAT RIDE 1. A frugal lady was taking a tour of biblical sites.

    Our idea about success involves three things - all of which were possessed by a man who approaches Jesus. What is he looking for and why? The answers should affect your outlook on this life and the one to come.

    As human beings there are four main things we rely on for security: money, control, intellectual power, and our abilities—including the ability to be good. But these four things also work to keep us away from real security. Today we delve into the story of a young man who had it all, but ...read more

    Why Did You Receive That Lie Into Your Spirit ? Series

     | 4,612 views

    Some people have a propensity to let bad things/words settle into their spirit. Be more resistant to negative words and more receptive to good or encouraging words. I include an experience I had with a demon possessed man.

    Why Did You Receive That Lie Into Your Spirit ? PPT 1 Series Title: Words This is the fifth week of our series on words, one more next week and we will wrap it up. (I think) We have talked about the fact that words can hurt or heal, we can injure with our words or we can build people up, last week ...read more

    Don’t Check Your Brain At The Door!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 15, 2019
     | 4,266 views

    Christian faith is more rational than atheism because it recognizes the minute information we possess and the insuperable complexity and design of the universe and life forms. We rest our intellect on the intellect of God. What could be wiser?

    “DON’T CHECK YOUR BRAIN AT THE DOOR!” Acts 17:11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE CHECKER (I was told this by a friend) 1. I went shopping at Walmart earlier today and got a sack of chicken legs. Right before the young lady rang them up, I asked her if they were front or back legs. 2. She paused ...read more

     | 2,854 views

    “Freedom is understood as either having the ability to act or change without constraint or to possess the power and resources to fulfill one's purposes unhindered.” Jesus assures believers that God alone can give real freedom.

    Sermon: Uncommon Freedom Sacred scripture: John 8:21-37 “Later Jesus said to them again, “I am going away. You will search for me but will die in your sin. You cannot come where I am going.”22 The people[a] asked, “Is he planning to commit suicide? What does he mean, ‘You cannot come where I am ...read more

    When we steal, we take from the person who possesses it, and from God who owns it. When we trust God’s providential provision, we will treat people and their property with respect.

    A couple weeks ago, I was the third customer in the checkout line at Aldi. As the cashier finished ringing up a man’s groceries, he moved his cart over to the table so he could bag them. About halfway through, he discovered a package of garlic in his cart. He stopped what he was doing, pulled ...read more

    Everyone possesses some form of faith. We place faith in various aspects of our lives, such as trusting our car to start and take us to our desired destination, or believing in the expertise of our doctors. This mindset is universal.

    Today, I want to talk about "faith." Everyone has some type of faith, whether it's in their car starting or in their doctor's expertise. We all have faith in something or someone. However, the difference lies in the object of our faith. Our faith is only as good as the object we place it in. In the ...read more

    There is much we can learn from this Canaanite mother. She came to Jesus for healing of her daughter who was demon-possessed. She would not take "no" for an answer. Jesus commended and rewarded her great faith.

    WORTHY TO BE CALLED “MOTHER” “Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, ‘Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.’ But He answered her not ...read more

    Possessions alone do not give spiritual fulfillment. Only Jesus Christ gives spiritual fulfillment. Spiritual fulfillment is found when we receive Jesus Christ into our lives and submit everything to his sovereign control.

    Scripture For the past two Sundays we have been in a series of messages on The ABCs of Stewardship. The material for this series of sermons comes from Dr. John Maxwell. So far we have looked at “Attitude: The Response of a Successful Steward,” and “Blessings: The Resources of a Successful ...read more

    The irony is that Israel was in the midst of a DROUGHT, and yet the people were commanded to pour water on the sacrifice! Don’t miss this: They were instructed to put their most precious possession on the altar if they were to experience God’s Fire!

    PRINCIPLES FOR RECOVERING THE FIRE OF GOD 1 Kings 18:36-39 "And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy ...read more

    The wrenching words of Jesus ushered forth from his lips while his sacrificial blood splashed on the ground. While his body is in excruciating pain and his tongue is tormented in thirst – Jesus cries out from those parched lips and says “FATHER FORGIVE

    In an increasingly impatient world it is essential for the believer to continue in prayer and wait patiently on the Lord, in spite of the tendency to the contrary! The world may be in a hurry but God is always on time! Wait on Him!

    Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. Grudge not ...read more
