    Navigating The Ups And Downs Of Life

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Dec 5, 2012
     | 7,027 views

    James expresses the fact that life is made up of triumph and tragedy, of sorrow and joy. Sickness can trip us up and sin can entangle us. We rarely know what to expect. Life is often very unpredictable. Our trust level in Christ will impact our response t

    Navigating the Ups and Downs of Life James 5:13-18 13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14 Is any one of you sick?

     | 1,644 views

    Jesus was willing... 1. To be betrayed by a false friend (vs. 45-50). 2. To be captured like a criminal (vs. 50, 55). 3. To express kindness to His enemies (vs. 51-52). 4. To suffer for the Scripture (vs. 52-56). 5. To be failed by His followers (vs. 56).

    Psalms 58 And 109 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 5, 2020
     | 5,730 views

    The outrage expressed in passages in these psalms are examples of times David seemed to be "fed up" with his enemies. He pours out his fury to God, not intending for his Father to act on the ills he calls for, but for God to see the passion poisoning his heart and send relief.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    Isn’t Advent a time of expectation and preparation? Doesn’t Advent challenge us to make changes in our lives? ... Didn’t David write this Psalm expressing remorse as well as the hunger for righteousness that only God could give him? Do we have that yearning in common with David?

    Remember O Lord, Your Great Mercy Text: Psalm 25 Psalm 25:1-10  Of David. To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.  (2)  O my God, in you I trust; do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me.  (3)  Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame; let ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,450 views

    God specializes in restoring those who are lost and gone away from Him. Everyone needs to be in the place God has assigned for us, for only there are we assured of God’s protection, privilege and we will also find our true worth.

    We read in Luke 15:20, “And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.” (Darby) We meditated a little on this passage in the last sermon, considering ...read more

    Jesus told the young man that he "close to the Kingdom of God." What did He mean by that?

    OPEN: In my files I have the observations someone made about how our culture uses the word “heart.” • For example, a person without compassion is described as "heartless," and we urge them to "have a heart." • The truly evil are "black-hearted" while godly saints have ...read more

    Esau never expressed any repentance for his sinful choices. The Bible says, “If I hide iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.” (Psa. 66:18,19) Not only did Esau make one bad mistake but for the rest of his life he refused to confess and forsake

    He was a great king, very passionate, the commander-in-chief, with a heart after God, yet Satan trapped him in the net of sin. God’s king must operate by a different standard tha the world. When David’s conscience was awakened, he expresses a heartfelt desire to be right with God.
