    Definite Praying

    Contributed by Nelson Emeonu on Aug 20, 2014
     | 3,828 views

    God wants you to be clear and precise to him in your prayer chamber. You should be explicit and ask for definite needs. He knows your needs but wants you to pray.

    “And He said unto them, which of you shall have a friend and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, friend, lend me three loaves...”(Luke 11:5) “ And Jesus said to his disciples, "Suppose one of you should go to a friend's house at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, let ...read more

     | 3,949 views

    A few weeks ago I did a play on words sermon titled Cross-Contamination. Today, I'm doing the same thing with the term, cross-examination. I'm using the term from the perspective of examining things through a spiritual lens. It's time for cross-examination.

    We Are Individually Responsible

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,198 views

    An idea is being floated in our nation that citizens must pay for the sins of the past in something called "reparations." This message asks if this concept is biblical. Praise be to God that He does not require reparations from us!

    I want to begin our message this morning by bringing an awareness of a modern-day proposal that is being floated in our local, state, and federal governments, and then tie that in to what Ezekiel has to say in our passage. Across our nation, people are talking about something called “reparations.” ...read more

    A little boy got on the elevator with his father at the Empire State Building. They were going to the observation deck at the top and view the city.

    • As the elevator ascended the boy watched the signs flash as they went by the floors: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70. • The farther up they went, the more nervous the boy became. • Finally he looked up as his dad and said, “Daddy, does God know we're coming?” (Leighton Ford, "Hope for a ...read more

    Esau's Egregious Errors

    When we want instant gratification, we commit the same kind of errors as did Esau.

    Jacob and Esau were twins but they were as different as day and night. 1. Jacob was more the domestic Homeboy who enjoyed the quieter things while Esau was the hunter out in the woods bringing game for the table. 2. Jacob was smooth of skin, Esau had a hairy body. 3. Jacob was suave, Esau ...read more

    Introduction: Most of us have attended a high school or college graduation at some time in our life.

    The students who are graduating are told by the commencement speaker that they are preparing to enter the adult world, and that each and every one of them have talents and skills they can contribute to making this a better world in which to live.

    Shooting Our Wounded

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 18, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,716 views

    We cringe when we hear about shooting the wounded; but how many times have we seen a brother or sister in Christ who was suffering spiritually, and then we shot him or her down with our words of judgment and condemnation?

    I want to open with an illustration. On May 21, 2004, Captain Rogelio Maynulet of the United States Army shot an unnamed Iraqi who was wounded in a chase.(1) What was his reasoning? He reported, “He was in a state that I didn’t think was dignified – I had to put him out of his misery.” He ...read more

    My Message Is All About God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 10, 2022
     | 4,120 views

    If we are not careful, we can get in the way of sharing the good news about Jesus and begin to make the message about us. But our message and our ministry must be all about Him and not about us. We must lift Him up, and He will draw people to Himself.

    A. I read about a minister who gave an unusual sermon one Sunday. 1. He used a peanut to make several important points about the wisdom of God in nature. 2. One of the church members greeted him on the way out and said, “Very interesting sermon, Preacher, I never expected to learn so much from a ...read more

    Scripture David and his army soundly defeated Absalom and his army. Sadly for David, his son Absalom was killed in the battle, along with twenty thousand of Absalom’s soldiers.

    The Disciple Peter - Slip Leads To Slide - Part 3 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 14, 2022
     | 1,187 views

    The unimaginable happens. Peter denies his Lord. Peter should not have been in the court in the first place, and certainly not with the enemy, warming himself. Peter led himself into temptation. Failure can teach us valuable lessons and we look at overcoming temptation
