    Healing Prayer: Do What Jesus Did

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Mar 5, 2014
     | 5,485 views

    In our discipleship we are called and encouraged to go and to do what Jesus did. This talk helps us to go and pray for healing as Jesus did.

    If Jesus gets to pray for a person twice how many goes do we get? If it took Jesus two attempts to heal to heal a blind man how many attempts do we get? I believe that every incident and event, every parable and sermon illustration in the gospels – and today we’ve heard from ...read more

    Consider Your Ways Series

     | 18,138 views

    The prophet Haggai gives the returned exiles of Judah a wake-up call because of their complacency and recalls them to faithful service to their God who has done some much for them.

    CONSIDER YOUR WAYS A prominent person, I believe it was Henry Ford, is reputed to have said, "history is bunk". Why he said that, I can’t think, because if we don’t learn from the mistakes of the past, we’re sure to repeat them. That’s the story of the world and is especially true for the ...read more

    when god calls us to help in a mission for him we should not think of ways out of service , but just go do what he would have us do.

    The story of Hannah is not only a wonderful account and illustration of what motherhood should be about, but also pictures the type of passion that all God’s children should demonstrate in their service for the Lord.

    HANNAH’S MOURNING FOR MOTHERHOOD Text: I Sam.1: 1-10 Intro: “No one deserves a special day all to herself more than today’s Mom.

    This is a sermon for the watch night service. As we enter into 2006 in order to reach our purpose and achieve our destiny we must forget the things of the past and let them go.

    “Forget it and Let it go” By Elder Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. Philippians 3:13 “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but [this] one thing [I do], forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.” If we go back to the 10 verse the Bible ...read more

    The Nazarene

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Feb 2, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,129 views

    Jesus "fills full" the prophecies that Messiah would be a Nazarene and a light to the Gentiles. His place of birth and service is part of his humiliation as God reached down to lift us up.

    Matthew 2__19-23 The Nazarene "Jesus of Nazareth" Jesus moved from Bethlehem in Judea to Nazareth in Galilee with a stopover in Egypt. Saying you are from Nazareth is a bit like saying you live in Shelbyville or Knightstown. You aren’t living in a place known for its class or appeal. ...read more

    The death of a child is not a waste for he is a blessing from the Lord, a reward from him (This is the message I preached in a funeral service for a young boy who died of a lingering sickness).

    Honestly, I find it hard to speak in a funeral service. I am aware that words are not enough to fully comfort the family. I’m at a loss for words because I have kids also. I find the task harder because tonight we are holding a funeral service for an 8-year-old boy, Justyn [Name changed to protect ...read more

    A sermon preached prior to revival services, the outline was in the margins of my Bible and i’m not sure where i came up with it from so i built upon it.

    Steps to Revival 2 Chronicles 14:1-6 (use NIV) Intro: How can you tell when you need revival? One person suggested that it becomes evident when it affects your hymn singing. Here are some examples: • We sing "Sweet Hour of Prayer" and are content with 5-10 minutes. • We sing "Onward Christian ...read more

    Are You 'whole'? Are You Thankful?

     | 2,417 views

    A short talk given at a midweek communion service. Anyone (absolutely anyone) who calls out to Jesus for pity, mercy, forgiveness, will receive it; but are we thankful? Are we ’whole’?

    Jesus brings wholeness. We bring thankfulness. What have you brought with you to this service of Holy Communion today? By that I don’t mean shopping trolleys, or shopping lists, or an umbrella in case it rains, or that letter which you forgot to post. What have you brought to Church today? Have you ...read more

    A very short talk given at a midweek Communion service, looking at the firstfruits brought to the Temple. Today, our offerings should also be used to bless the foreigner, the asylum seeker and the Priest!

    I wonder how you will react when in just a moment I rephrase verse eleven of this Bible reading. We’ve just heard about an important act of worship in the life of Israel. As a response of thanks and praise to God for bringing them into the Land he promised (26:3), worshippers were required ...read more

    As Christ gave Himself when we were still sinners, so we must give ourself over to the service of life and the protection of life as the key to authentic human development

    November 2, 2009 All Souls Day Caritas in Veritate When God, at the exactly perfect moment in human history, wanted to take man’s development to the final level, He did so, and continues to do so, by a selfless act of gift.
