Sermons on Eye Sight:

I Quit Playing Victim! I Will Go Where I Was Sent! I Am A Survivor! Series

Contributed by Edward Pruett on Mar 26, 2018

Jesus chose you where you are. He walked past you, knowing that what makes you different will be used so that "God might be displayed in [you!]" Obedience to Jesus' directives is where seeing occurs.

When I look at my life, there seems to be two components that stand out: What people see from me and what people perceive of me. Let me repeat that: What people see from me and what people perceive of me. The unfortunate thing is the “what people see from me” and the “what people perceive of ...read more

Keeping Prayer In Perspective Series

Contributed by Warren Lamb on Jun 8, 2008

Keeping Prayer in Perspective Matthew 20:29-34 As we come to the end of our study in Matthew 20, we find a short story that is included in three of the four gospels.

The Power Of Meekness Series

Contributed by Jeff Cole on Nov 22, 2025

Restoring The Cars

Contributed by Michael Trask on May 15, 2006

This wonderful section of scripture on the Love of God and our Love for others is explained by way of an extended analogy. God is like a "car guy" who sees a "classic" in a rust bomb. We must have the same eyes when we consider others.

Have you ever known one of those guys who are into restoring cars? Most of us do. They scour the junkyards and the abandoned farmsteads of the midwest looking for old wrecks. When you we see a dilapidated old rust bomb sitting out in a field with weeds growing through the rusty ...read more

Are We Telling It Like It Really Is?

Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019

Here is my adaptation of a sermon contributed by Tim Zingale, Sermon Central, Sept. 2007, "The Rabbit". The focus of my adaptation is the declining vitality of the universal Christian church resulting from having lost sight of Christ, the cornerstone of God's redemptive church.

(If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One day, a young disciple of Christ who wanted to become everything that God had in mind for him visited the home of an elderly Christian seeking his advice.

The Harsh Reality And Unavoidable Issue Of Sin

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 13, 2021

Sin is a serious and destructive fact of life. We define it as a series of "mistakes", "errors of judgment", or "bad behavior". We need to see sin for what it is -an abomination in the sight of a Holy God (Ezekiel 18:20; Romans 6:23).

Modern society more and more makes very little of or does not even bother to think about sin as a serious and destructive fact of life. There are varying attitudes towards the subject of sin. Some view the idea as an illusion, the construction of ancient religious fanatics, or fantasy. Many deny ...read more

A New Creation

Contributed by Ian Hyde on Apr 11, 2019

We are being called to see the world through new eyes, but in order to do that, we need to be transformed by Christ. Once we witness His power firsthand, only then are we truly able to go out as ambassadors for Him.

OPENING STORY If any of you have gotten the chance to sift through old pictures on my Facebook page, you’ve probably noticed that in most of the older pictures I used to wear glasses.

What Do You Get When You Receive Christ?

Contributed by David Bubb on Mar 8, 2004

Reflections From The Pool Of Bethesda

Contributed by Victor Nazareth on Jul 8, 2002

A devotional message bringing reflections from the Pool of Bethesda. As we look at the healing of this paralysed man we see the need in our lives to get our eyes of our ’pools’ and put them on Jesus.

Introduction: Jesus heals a paralyzed man at the pool of Bethesda. This man’s whole focus was on the pool and getting into it first after the angel stirred it. Even though Jesus was right there besides him, he is trying to solicit Jesus help to lower him into the pool. We are often like that: ...read more
