    This sermon explores the spiritual battle between good and evil, emphasizing that Satan’s defeat is certain and his anger is a sign of his limited time. It encourages believers to remain steadfast, understanding that increased spiritual warfare signals the nearness of Christ’s return and victory.

    When the Devil Knows His Time Is Short Revelation 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Introduction – A ...read more

    We see increasing oppression and persecution in the world against God’s own, especially right now in Africa. Wicked schemes and godlessness increase. Jeremiah had to face the same evils and we look at verses dealing with this. Godly Christians WILL face persecution.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 27 – PERSECUTION AND OPPRESSION AGAINST GOD’S PEOPLE – WICKED SCHEMES - CHAPTER 3:58-60 Jeremiah pleads his case with the Lord and that we saw last time. He was delivered from the lowest pit and similar experiences met David, Jonah and the Lord. We looked at them. ...read more

    When I was a child, I had visions of grandeur. I wanted to be the hero who saves the world.

    God is the Holy One who expects his people to be holy just as he is holy, but at the same time he’s the God of irresistible grace who forgives us and promises to defend us and protect us from all the attacks of the evil one. But we have to remain faithful

    Psalm 139 focuses on the fact that God knows you and I. But does He really know my name, and what difference would it make if He did?

    There’s an old riddle that asks this question: “What is it that belongs to you, but other people use it more than you do?” THE ANSWER: Your name. Your name belongs to you, but you rarely use it except to tell others who you are. We like it when other people say our names, because our ...read more

    The phrase "it is written" is used seventy-two times in the Bible and even four times when Jesus is being tempted by the devil in the wilderness. (The evil one used it once, too.) Why did Jesus and the apostles lean so heavily on Scripture? Is it really so important?
