    Living Under God's Open Heaven PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 29, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 127 views

    God’s generous presence and blessing are available to us through prayer, inviting us to trust, receive, and live confidently under His open heaven.

    Some mornings feel like the sky sits low and gray, as if our prayers push against a ceiling of clouds. Bills stack, hearts ache, and strength thins out around the edges. And then we read a line of Scripture and it’s as if God opens a window and lets a fresh breeze run through the room. That’s what ...read more

    Christ meets us in our weakness, supplying strength and love so we can persevere, serve others, and experience true courage in everyday life.

    Some of us walked in with smiles; some of us walked in with sighs. Schedules feel heavy. Headlines howl. Bills pile, plates spin, and sleep sneaks away. You’ve tried to be strong for your people, and the strength ran thin. You’ve tried to be brave for your heart, and the courage felt small. If ...read more

    This sermon deals with the importance of setting goals. It is a revision of the sermon material given to us in Rick Warren's Transformation series as our church went through the series. I highly recommend the series for your church.

    Most of this material was done by Rick Warren in the 50 Days Of Transformation Series. I reworked some of the material and eliminated a lot because of the length of the sermon. We used the material to kick off a church campaign for growth. Welcome to 50 Days of Transformation as we continue The ...read more

    One of these fall mornings when the temperature drops, you're going to walk outside and when you breathe, you'll see a vapor cloud. Watch how fast it disappears: That's the length of your life according to the Bible.

    INTRODUCTION A few weeks ago, I was channel surfing on my satellite radio, and I heard a pop song that kept repeating, “What do you want from me?” I tend to baptize, or biblicize everything I hear, so that phrase made me wonder if people ever stop and ask God, “God, what do you ...read more

     | 4,815 views

    Worship and being worship driven does not always imply music, instruments, singing or even the lifting of hands. To be worship driven for God means we honor God with our heart, mind, soul and our daily actions. It’s a matter of the heart to heart connect

    Those who want nothing to do with God will receive their request when Jesus returns.

    INTRODUCTION • People were longing for the return of the Lord, and some were more or less checking out of life, expecting Him to come at any moment. • In the last couple of chapters of 1 Thessalonians, Paul wrote to comfort and encourage the folks concerning what would happen to those who died in ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 19, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,110 views

    These two messages are the culmination of decades of observing those I have heard, met, sat under, and worked with in ministry who have walked in a unique Anointing and Favor of God and what they all had in common that caused them to stand apart from others.

    INTRODUCTION The Bible emphatically reveals that there is one eternal God who is not some universal mind or consciousness that fills space and matter. He has always existed in eternity past and into eternity future in three persons in what is known as the Trinity – God, the Father, God, the Son, ...read more

    This sermon ends a series that has explored the ’corrupt generation’ we find ourselves living in. When realizing they had crucified the Messiah, faithful Jews at Pentecost asked, "What shall we do?" The response is, "Got Jesus?"

    Bibliography: Culture Shifts, Lesson 10 Over the last several months, we have looked at the modern culture we find ourselves living in. I personally have found the exploration of the world we face most intriguing. There are some aspects of our society which have really hit home. Let me briefly ...read more
