    Jesus Feeds The 5000

    Contributed by Daniel Sorensen on Oct 26, 2006
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,515 views

    BRIEF sermon (homily) given to a group of sailors recently graduated from boot camp which could be modified to recent graduates from High School or a retreat or confirmation.

    Jesus Feeds the 5000 5000 people, all together in a tight space, all sweaty, and hungry, and tired. Kind of sounds like life on an aircraft carrier. No matter how long we have been in the service, be it 5 weeks or 5 years, we have already experienced crowds of people. Lines in the Galley, ...read more

    Look At Jesus, Not The Numbers

    Contributed by Richard Papafio on Aug 12, 2018
     | 3,450 views

    The numbers we see at meetings or win for Jesus does not determine our performance in the Kingdom. Jesus decides and uses us to execute. So whatever we do is according to His will

    May the peace of the Lord be with you. Topic: LOOK AT JESUS, NOT THE NUMBERS Acts 16:11-15 King James Version (KJV) 11 Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; 12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part ...read more

    Demonic Possession And Jesus Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021
     | 3,592 views

    Every person who has not experienced conversion is under the power and sway of Satan. Jesus owns Christians; Satan doesn’t own Christians. Satan cannot own the body and mind of a Christian, but he can influence you.

    Last week we kicked off the series about examining Jesus’ words, or His teaching. Today, we observe His works, or His deeds. Sit in the synagogue with Jesus. Watch the works of Jesus together with fresh eyes. Come with me and see a day in the life of Jesus: Today’s Scripture And he went down to ...read more

    Jesus, Among Others Luke 9:28-36 I read a story recently about a terrible fire in a chemical plant.

    Jesus had come from Judea and had already passed through Samaria, and now was in Cana of Galilee, where He had performed His first miracle, as recorded in John 2. Now He’s again in Cana and He will encounter someone there who has a need that only Jesus Himself can fulfill.

    Introduction During our Lord’s ministry on this earth, He must have had people asking Him many times if He would heal someone. Gracious as He was, He never turned anyone away. Whether the person was very poor, like the woman who had spent everything she had but never was cured, or a foreigner like ...read more

    A Worship-Filled Heart

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 16, 2023

     | 2,664 views

    Worship is a broad topic, so I’d like to look at it through the lens of the prophet Isaiah’s encounter with God before His heavenly throne as found in Isaiah 6:1-8. From this encounter, I’d like to share several aspects about worship that will change our lives and relationship with God.

    Face To Face With God!

    I believe the best way to communicate is meeting face to face. Yet we try to substitute this most ancient and proven way with technology and social Media and have become terribly disconnected as a result.

    A face-to-face request is 34 times more successful than an email In research Mahdi Roghanizad of Western University and I conducted, recently published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, we have found that people tend to overestimate the power of their persuasiveness via text-based ...read more

    Divine Intervention In Human Limitations

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 30, 2025
     | 465 views

    Human limitations do not limit God. In fact, they invite His intervention. Our God delights in using the weak, the little, and the unlikely to show His might. When we trust Him beyond our logic, He steps in and turns impossibilities into miracles.

    DIVINE INTERVENTION IN HUMAN LIMITATIONS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 1:34-37 Supporting Texts: Exodus 14:13-16, John 11:39-44, 2 Kings 4:1-7, Matthew 14:17-21, Romans 8:26-28 INTRODUCTION: Human limitations are real—whether physical, financial, emotional, or spiritual.
