    JOSHUA 3:1 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over.

    CROSSING OVER Can you think of a day that you waited for with great anticipation? Christmas morning? A Family Vacation? Your Wedding Day? Maybe it was a day that you anticipated with great excitement. Maybe it was day you anticipated with great anxiety (The fear of the unknown, like the day ...read more

    Sermon # 22 - Longing For God's Presence Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 1, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,027 views

    As Jonah languished in the belly of the fish, he cried out to God and sought His presence. As believers of the new covenant we have the promise of the presence of the Holy Spirit of God every moment of our lives. May we learn to value God’s presence and live in obedience to His word.

    We read in Jonah 2:4,"Then I thought, 'I have been banished from your sight. Will I ever see your holy temple again?' (GW) After Jonah was swallowed by the big fish that God prepared, Jonah spent three turbulent days and nights in the belly of that fish. At the end of those three ...read more

    Sermon # 23 - The Blessings Of Obedience Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 5, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,380 views

    When disobedient Jonah repented and agreed to obey God, his life was spared to bless an entire city. The blessings of God on those who choose to be obedient to His word is beyond human understanding, and they also become a great blessing to many.

    We read in Jonah 2:10, And the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land. (ESV) When the fish obeyed If I were to rephrase the above mentioned verse this is how I would say it, ‘An obedient fish vomited a disobedient prophet out on the dry land’. Jonah disobeyed God, and ...read more

    Sermon # 24 - God Gives Many Chances Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 6, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 814 views

    Though Jonah disobeyed and ran from God, the Lord gave him a second chance. No one is too bad or too far gone to return back to the loving Lord who alone can change and transform a sinner into a saint, and use such a one to fulfill His mighty purposes.

    We read in Jonah 3:1, “Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying,” (ESV) God had called Jonah to accomplish a huge task. Jonah chose to disobey, and undertook a voyage which the Lord disrupted by sending a mighty tempest. As the ship was tossed about in the midst of the ...read more

    Sermon # 25- Arise And Go Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 14, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 805 views

    Once the fish had vomited Jonah out, God’s call came to the prophet to arise and go to Nineveh and preach to the people. God’s call to the church is to take the good news of the gospel to those outside. May we too arise and go to fulfill the great commission of Jesus.

    We read in Jonah 3:1-2, Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it the message that I tell you.”(ESV) These are the words of God to Jonah after the fish vomited him out onto the shore. We are not sure in what ...read more

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Preaching The Word Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 732 views

    Jonah preached and the people of Nineveh repented. Preaching the word of God should be taken seriously, should be based on the word of God. Here are some important aspects of preaching which when followed will certainly produce a bountiful harvest.

    We read in Jonah 3:5, “The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to stop eating for a time to think about their sins. They put on special clothes to show they were sorry. All the people in the city did this, from the most important to the least important.” (ERV) The people of Nineveh ...read more

    Sermon # 35 - The Heart Of A Christian Leader Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 19, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 335 views

    Jonah was a prophet of God, but he did not understand the loving heart of God towards a repentant people. The heart of Moses as a leader of the Israelites and the forgiving heart of Jesus are the best examples of how a Christian leader should love and care for the people under his or her care.

    We read in Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) There are two kinds of emotions that Jonah expressed as mentioned in the verse above, one was sadness, and the other was anger. As we meditate on this portion of scripture, we will try to understand the reasons for ...read more

    Sermon # 50 - Prayer And God's Timing Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 5, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 273 views

    Every prayer that is offered to God is taken note of and God will answer our prayers in His time and in His own way. Cornelius and Peter are great examples of the amazing ways in which God answers prayers. Let’s pray without ceasing knowing that the answer is one the way.

    For today’s meditation let us read, Acts 10:19-20, Peter was still trying to understand what the vision meant, when the Spirit said, "Listen! Three men are here looking for you. So get ready and go down, and do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them." (GNB) We are going to ...read more

    Sermon # 52 - God's Perfect Timing Series

     | 422 views

    Often the plans of God may not be obvious to us, but as we move forward with faith, those plans of God will unfold perfectly in His time. May we trust God to make everything beautiful in His time.

    For today’s meditation I want to read Micah 5:2, The LORD says, "Bethlehem Ephrathah, you are one of the smallest towns in Judah, but out of you I will bring a ruler for Israel, whose family line goes back to ancient times." (GNB) The birth of the Lord Jesus in the little town of ...read more

    The Three Places

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 1, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 367 views

    In this journey of faith there are three places that we can find ourselves in – a place of bondage, a place of wandering or a place of promise. Each of us can introspect to see where we are and move forward in faith to reach the place of promise, to fulfill God’s purposes

    Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 21:43, “So the LORD gave all of the land to Israel that he had promised to give their ancestors, and they took possession and settled there in it.” (ERV) The Lord gave the people of Israel the land that he had promised to their ancestors, and they duly took ...read more

     | 237 views

    As children of God we are engaged in a spiritual battle and whenever we feel weak and faint-hearted, the Lord reminds us to be strong and courageous. Jesus conquered sin, death and Satan and He has promised to give us His peace, His power and to lead us onto victory.

    Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 1:6, "Be strong and courageous, because you'll be leading this people to inherit the land that I promised to give their ancestors.” (ISV) The Almighty God who created the heavens and the earth, spoke these words to Joshua. God spoke these words, ‘be ...read more

    There’s the “bank of earth" and there’s the bank of heaven, and the one in heaven gives a far better rate of interest. But what's wrong with "banking" my wealth on earth?

    Sermon # 13 - Why Have You Done This? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 1, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,000 views

    When the men on the ship realized that Jonah was the cause for their serious predicament they asked him, ‘Why have you done this?’ May we as children of God not do anything that will dishonor God and be a hindrance to those outside the church.

    We read in Jonah 1:10, Then the men were terrified. They knew that he was running away from the LORD, because he had told them. They asked Jonah, "Why have you done this?" (GW) The prophet Jonah who received the word of God to go to Nineveh, disobeyed God, and undertook a voyage on a ...read more

     | 782 views

    Jonah’s disobedience brought untold troubles on all the crew aboard that ship. The church too must be wary of those who are divisive and must strive hard to maintain unity, integrity continuing in prayer and being obedient to God.

    We read in Jonah 1:11, Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea was raging and growing more tempestuous. (AFV) The events that preceded this verse were that the ship on which Jonah voyaged was faced with a severe tempest. The mariners ...read more
