Sermon # 44 - Overcome Evil With Good Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 13, 2025

Everyone has a choice to either do evil for evil or to repay evil with good. The latter is a godly decision which God approves of and the way Jesus exemplified. When our children are taught this when young, they will grow up to always do good no matter what evil is done to them.

We read in Genesis 4:1, Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, “I have acquired a man from the LORD.” (NKJV) When the first man Adam and his wife Eve had a baby boy, the words of Eve were, ‘I have acquired a man from the Lord.’ Children are given to us by the Lord, ...read more

No One Can Stand Against Us

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 16, 2025

God was with Joshua just as He was with Moses. God blessed Joshua and made him a great leader because of the qualities God saw and approved in him. If we live the way Joshua did and God is for us, no one can stand against us too all the days of our lives.

For our meditation today we will look at Joshua 1:5, “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you.” (ESV) These are the words of God to Joshua. The Lord told Joshua that no one would be ...read more

Sanctified Speech

The Eternal Davidic Covenant

Contributed by Raymond Petzholt on Mar 12, 2024

David wants to build God a house. The LORD says “I will build thee an house” (I Chron. 17:10). He is promised his “house, kingdom & throne shall be established forever!” Are you trying to build God’s house? Then expect God’s blessing on your home.
