Sermon # 44 - Clothe Yourself With Strength Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 17, 2023

God is in the process of restoring lives, while Satan is in the process of destroying them. To anyone who is feeling down and weak, the Lord reminds you that you can be clothed with strength, and can stand up with courage to regain all that the enemy has stolen from you.

We read in Isaiah 52:1, “Wake up, wake up, O Zion! Clothe yourself with strength.

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 14, 2005

We as humans see things we don’t like in ourselves - then just decide to change. But we are who we are and cannot change - unless God does the transformation. We also hear how God uses this to turn what the enemy means for harm into good.

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could plan the day of our departure? Just think about it - you could accomplish the things that are really important, pass on vital information to those you will leave behind, then set your sights on heaven and away you go.

Exodus 14 - Stand Still And Move Forward! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 25, 2009

Sometimes God says to me "Get on with it! That’s when you will see My deliverance! Get moving! Do something with your faith, don’t just stand there!" and then the way opens up, and the waters part, the impossible happens and the enemy is defeated.

Exodus 14 - Stand Still and Move Forward! Exodus 14 speaks about the miracle of the division of the Red Sea.
