    Releasing The Anointing Of God

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 23, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,456 views

    In order for the anointing of God to move powerfully through a Christian’s life, and upon every life they touch, it must be released.

    Before the anointing was released at the start of Jesus ministry, He was baptized. “When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.” (Luke 3:21 NIV) Baptism symbolizes death. The spices that made up the Anointing Oil ...read more

    …the Good Hand Of His God Upon Him

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021
     | 3,867 views

    Today in this sermon, we want to turn our attention to a very special man. His name is Ezra. He is one of those fellows you do not hear a great deal about, but yet he was a giant among men in the spiritual world.

    Ezra was a priest, but he was not able to serve in the temple because the temple had been destroyed. This could be why we do not hear a lot about Ezra. He was not a temple priest. Ezra is noted for other things, such as: • He studied the Word of God. In Ezra 7:6, we read that he was, “A ready ...read more

    Honored By God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 15, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,717 views

    All of us like to claim the promises of God for our lives, but oftentimes we fail to do all that God expects of us. There are two groups of people in this world, one group who honor God by giving Him the topmost priority in their lives and the other group who go to Him only when in trouble.

    Psalm 91 - Study 38 - Honored by God We read in Psalm 91:15,“When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.” (ESV) In this message we will study the last part of the above verse which talks about the fact that God not only rescues us, but ...read more

    The Miracle Of The Manger Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Dec 24, 2021
     | 3,307 views

    The miracle of the manger is the incarnation. God becomes a man. A Scripture references are from the NASB.

    As we consider the miracles of Christmas, the most obvious miracle of all is the incarnation, God became a man. That is Christmas, the birth of our Savior, God coming to earth as a man as foretold of the prophets of old. Matthew 1:23 “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, ...read more

    The Surety Of Forgiveness

     | 2,585 views

    I want to spend some time in the next few weeks talking about the surety of things. Can we really be sure of anything? We do have assurance. God wants every believer to have assurance of salvation.

    I want to spend some time in the next few weeks talking about the surety of things. Can we really be sure of anything? Someone once said, “The only things we can be sure of are taxes and the rent going up.” Some philosophers will tell you that we can't be sure of anything. After Covid-19 ...read more

    The sad truth is that all of us seem to fit too well into Stevenson's story about Dr. Jekyll. Because we also seem to have a split personality, at times doing things we know we should not do.

Romans 7:14-25 Robert Louis Stevenson, who wrote Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and A Child's Garden of Verses, is also well known for writing The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde first published in 1886.

    Jesus was the most magnificent person to ever walk this earth. Let that sink in: the most magnificent person. What did that look like? Today we are going to go on a search for the magnificence of Jesus.

    A Search For Magnificence John 5:31-47 Jesus was the most magnificent person to ever walk this earth. Let that sink in: the most magnificent person. What did that look like?

    Belshazzar, the king, threw one of the grandest parties that had ever been given up to that time.

    It is significant for three reasons. (1) It is noted for WHO GAVE IT. Look at verse 1. We read, “Belshazzar the king made a great feast...” (2) It is noted for THE LARGE ATTENDANCE. Look at verse 1 again. We read, “Belshazzar the king made a great feast to A THOUSAND OF HIS ...read more

    The Filling Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021
     | 4,227 views

    Being controlled by the Spirit is not a dramatic or decisive one-time experience but it’s a daily, ongoing habit. There’s a kind of fullness of the Spirit that comes just simply obeying God and using the means of grace: Bible study, and prayer, and fellowship, obeying his will, etc.

    Today, I want to answer this question, “How can I tell if the Holy Spirit is controlling me?” We are not alone in asking this question as the renowned theologian Jonathan Edwards addressed the questions in his work, Religious Affections. In the book, Edwards moves through twelve “uncertain signs” ...read more

    The Call To Rebuild

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 19, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,835 views

    God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. But amidst the challenges, it takes uncommon trust and surrender to tackle what God is asking. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

    Someone once said, “Build. Destroy. Rebuild. I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back. Now, to master the art of not having to” (Dau Voire). This is probably how a lot of us feel. We’re tired of striving and struggling, and we’re tired of having to rebuild. But rebuilding is necessary in order ...read more

    We have no idea "who" or even "what" God is. We cannot get to Him but He comes to us through creation; conscience; chosen people and their Bible; Christ and Conversion. Until we are converted we know ABOUT God but we don't know God personally.

    Just before people are delivered or have break-through salvation, the enemy usually puts up one final fight to keep them from being saved. Fear not; Jesus is the Conqueror. Hold fast to Him and you'll get victory!
