The Burning Bush Call Of Moses Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 3, 2022

Moses put his neck on the line once. And he felt like a failure. Is he willing to be that vulnerable again? Is he willing to trust God with his life? That is the challenge of Moses. That is the challenge for everyone who follows the call of God.

The call of God is as unique for every individual as is every person. For Gideon it was the fleece and that differs widely from Ezekiel and his lofty falling facedown vision of the throne of God. Isaiah with the burning coal placed on his lips differs from Paul on the Damascus Road and his ...read more

Praying For God’s Will – Submitting To God’s Way

Contributed by Esther Collins on May 10, 2022

Often we pray for God's will, and hope things will work out the way we want them to. But in reality it's in submitting to His will, and willingly going His way can we experience God's perfect blessings.

When life is hard, and things don’t go as we planned we get discouraged. In times like these we go to God in prayer. As we pray fervently we hope that God will answer us the way we want Him to. We pray for God’s will to be done, and when we find that God’s will is not as we planned or desired, we ...read more

Names Of God: Adonai, God Our Master And Owner Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 1, 2022

The name Adonai occurs about 300 times in the Old Testament. Every time it’s used it’s written as a possessive plural form. So it could actually be read as “my Lords” which reminds us that God is a trinity, of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

"Servant" in our English New Testament usually represents the Greek doulos (bondslave). Sometimes it means diakonos (deacon or minister); this is strictly accurate, for doulos and diakonos are synonyms. Both words denote a man who is not at his own disposal, but is his master's ...read more

Sermon # 11 - What's In Your Hand? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 20, 2023

Every small and insignificant thing that is in our hands can become a mighty tool in the hands of our glorious and mighty God. So, what is it that we must do to accomplish extraordinary things for the Lord? Read on to know how this could become a possibility in your life.

In Exodus 15:6, we read “Your right hand, O LORD, glorious in power.”(NRSV) 1.

What's Your Excuse?

Contributed by Esther Collins on Mar 20, 2023

When God calls us for a task, do we accept it joyfully or do we give excuses? Here are some common excuses that we should avoid so God can fulfill His great purposes through us.

The Lord wants to use each one of us, and only if we are available and seriously desire to do so can He use us. Every believer in Jesus has a purpose to fulfill and sometimes we miss out because of some excuses that we make. Interestingly, the bible gives us many examples of those who made such ...read more

Jars Of Clay

Contributed by Paul Davidson on Sep 20, 2018

God formed us, shaped us, like a master potter. Do we trust Him? When He directs our path, do we make excuses why we can’t do it, or do we walk boldly along that path in faith? God didn’t create you to be the centerpiece on a display shelf… He created you as a clay pot to be useful for His kingdom!

Unexpected Events (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021

Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more
