    Naaman learned that God's Miracles areawarded to those persons who are humble and obedient. His healing from a major setback in his life was a gift of God, not something he could buy or i entice.

    Learning from Life’s Setbacks II Kings 5:1-14 There are lessons to be learned by the setbacks in our lives. An excellent study of setbacks is found in the story of Naaman, the leper, where there are specific events and decisions that can be applied to our times and lives. The setting is in ...read more

    Paul could have easily boasted on how he had it all together and everything he had accomplished, but as soon as he wanted to boast, God gave him a thorn to remind him that it is wasn’t about him. What is a thorn? Thorns are any form of physical issues, hu

    There's a saying, "Freedom's never free." We live in the freest country in the world, but what do we do with that freedom. As the Church, are we seeking to be a blessing so that through us God can truly bless the USA?

    INTRODUCTION: In Lee Greenwood’s signature ultra-patriotic song “God Bless the USA” he says these words: If tomorrow all my things were gone,I'd worked for all my life. And I had to start again,With just my children and my wife. I'd thank my lucky stars,To be livin' here ...read more

    We lose God when we emphasize a ritual or object over and above our relationship with God. Don't expect God's blessings without repentance.

    During a service at an old synagogue, when a particular prayer was said, half the congregants stood up and half remained sitting. The half that was seated started yelling at those standing to sit down, and the ones standing yelled at the ones sitting to stand up. The new rabbi didn't know ...read more

    God's most essential attribute is His Mercy -- full of Mercy! He expects His children to be merciful as well. "Blessed are the merciful . . . "

    I love the sign displayed at a convent, "Trespassers will be punished at the fullest of the law!" signed 'Sisters of Mercy.' Punished by mercy? That doesn't quite make sense! What is mercy? When we look up the definition in the dictionary it states the following: ...read more

    Although the vision of the dry bones applies to Israel, we can learn much about God's character and how to live our lives from that object lesson.

    As I read the Bible, I’m constantly amazed at how God uses some very common objects to demonstrate deep spiritual truths. It’s as if God uses a consistent dose of simple “In the Bag” object lessons in order to help us understand that which He wants us to apply in our lives. ...read more
