    I think one of the most effective weapons the devil has ever forged against Christians is this weapon of intimidation

    In verse 14, literally, “Do not be intimidated or disturbed; unsettled.” Simply what the apostle is saying is, “Don’t let the world intimidate you.” I think one of the most effective weapons the devil has ever forged against Christians is this weapon of intimidation. The world can be very ...read more

    Every believer can enhance their prayer life by incorporating the practice of fasting, thus multiplying their effectiveness in spiritual matters.

    In any building project, having the right tools and knowing how to use them is crucial for success. Just as a skilled builder brings a van full of tools to a construction site, believers have been given a powerful tool by God to enhance their prayer life: fasting. Unfortunately, many Christians ...read more

    In the parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector, we’ll be looking at those prayers God hears. However, is all speech skyward prayer, and are they the prayers God hears and answers. In a study of contrast, Jesus’s looks at prayer and the type of prayers God hears.

     | 12,661 views

    God's Word teaches us clearly we are to praise the Lord. God wants to hear our praise. But what is praise? Do we really understand what is involved in praising the Lord? How does praise effect God? What effect does praise have on us?

    Praise the Lord Luke 19:29-40 On the day we call Palm Sunday as Christ rode into Jerusalem fulfilling the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9, we read that "the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying, "Blessed ...read more

    If you want to keep from slipping into ruin, depend on the Lord and then keep depending on the Lord; but if you’re already on the slippery slope to ruin, repent; turn from your sin back to God, and let Him bring you back to the top again.

    This message pertains to the study of two fig trees. The first one displayed leaves without producing any fruit. The second one was planted in good soil but required an intercessor to save it from dying, to have another opportunity to grow and bear fruit. Which tree represents you?

     | 5,627 views

    From his discourse on idle faith, James proceeded to discuss the idle speech. The failure o bridle the tongue, mentioned earlier (1:26), is now expanded. As disturbing as those who have faith with no works are those Christians who substitute words for works.

    1Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2We all stumble in many ways.

    The one necessary ingredient for effective service before the Lord is power. This is what few contemporary Christians have, perhaps because they are uncertain what they should look for.

    You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. When the disciples came down from the upper room, an impossible task loomed before them. They were charged to announce that Jesus ...read more
