    Mold Me And Make Me

     | 14,779 views

    This message looks at Jeremiah's imagery of God as the Potter. If we fail to submit to the Potter and remain in His hands, then the Lord will stop shaping us and let us alone. But when He lets us alone, we are in a very fragile state!

    There is a well-known hymn entitled, “Have Thine Own Way.” The first line of this hymn says, “Have Thine own way, Lord! . . . Thou art the potter, I am the clay! Mold me and make me after Thy will, while I am waiting, yielded and still.”(1) When Adelaide Pollard wrote the words to this hymn she ...read more

    There can be no doubt that Paul endured much for the sake of the gospel. From a worldly perspective, one might have thought his efforts had largely failed. However, Paul kept the faith and continued serving the Lord. We should be thankful for his perseverance.

    Hindered but not Hopeless 1 Thessalonians 2: 17-20 What precious and powerful words are recorded for our exhortation in these few verses! These words reveal the very heart and soul of the apostle Paul. He, of all men, knew what it was to face adversity and extreme difficulty in ministry. ...read more

    The Rebellion Of Korah Is An Example Of The Rebellious False Teachers - Jude 1 V 11(C) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 16, 2022
     | 2,000 views

    Jude has been exposing the false teachers quite graphically. One was a murderer, one perverted God's people for money, and here is Korah, a man of rebellion. God put him to the test and he failed. This whole account is examined in this message.

    THE REBELLION OF KORAH IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE REBELLIOUS FALSE TEACHERS - Jude 1 v 11(c) In a previous message we looked at Cain and Korah together. This time only Korah is in the spotlight and the account has been expanded. Jude 1 v 11 Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain, and for pay, ...read more

    My Perfect Hiding Place

     | 106 views

    One proof of God’s deep affection for us is the fact that we can run to him in times of trouble, and he willingly protects us. He calms us like a parent who comforts a frightened child. Indeed, God never fails.

     | 1,093 views

    We embark on a 6 part series on Lot. The Genesis record of Lot is one failure after another and deep involvement with sin. We will look at how all this happened and the sorrowful end of a broken and failed man. Lot walked the road to ruin always.

    LOT – PART 1 – A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR GOD – FOR ABRAHAM – AND FOR HIMSELF – GENESIS 11 – 13 LOT BEGINS HIS FAILURE One the more troubled characters in the Old Testament is Lot and he had a life that began with a good example in Abram and deteriorated from there on.

    Our work is different when we are supervised than when we are not, but our character and commitment are measured thereby. We can be Matthias, who accepted an assignment he did not seek, with joy; or Joseph Justus, who failed to get that same assignment,

    When you can see your supervisor, you work. When you cannot see him, your work style is likely to slow down. The difference between those two things is the measure of your character and your commitment. When you can see your supervisor, you work diligently. You work hard; you get the ...read more

    In the Bible is a man who tried and tried to follow Christ closely but failed time and time again… miserably. His name is Peter. Yet God showed His power in Peter’s life. If he can do that with Peter, he can do that with you.

    A spiritual leader named Henry Varley shared some words that still serve to challenge God’s people. Here are the words: “The world has yet to see what God will do with and for and through and in and by a man who is fully consecrated to Christ.” God used these words to change a man named D.L. ...read more

     | 9,854 views

    The fear of life is often seen in resisting change and living in denial of the seasons of life. If we try to fight the seasons of life rather than accept them, we will miss the blessings God has for us and we will fail to mature. We need to embrace life

    Embracing Life (Ecclesiastes 3:1-15) Intro 1. A major part of who we are and what we do is determined by fear. 2. Fear is not necessarily evil. Legitimate fear of danger, for example, results in restraint: whether driving, playing football, or welding, caution is a virtue. 3. There are fears ...read more

    The God Who Can Be Trusted Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Feb 7, 2012
     | 7,336 views

    God’s Word will not and cannot fail but that leads to two crucial questions: 1) Is God free to do whatever he wants? 2) Is God fair in the way he treats people? Today's message will help us wrestle with these issues of God's sovereignty.

    The God Who Can Be Trusted Romans 9:4-18 4 … Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. 5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over ...read more

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 26, 2011
     | 5,922 views

    Too often as Christians we take short cuts to maturity. In reality the only way to become complete is to let the Lord take you through difficulty and make you seem to "fail." In the process He builds life and a character in you that will lead you into His

    We all have a decision to make.

    Being Jewish is a blessing, but we’ve all failed God and need a Savior. God wants us to know Him, He is completely fair, He can be trusted, and He is a holy God who requires holiness of us and is faithful to provide it.

    God’s Faithfulness Wins! Intro: Well, it seems like we’ve taken a long break from our study in Romans. We took a month to go through the One-Month-to-Live series, then had Palm Sunday, Easter, heard from the Lead Pastor of the OMN, and celebrated Mother’s Day. Now, back to ...read more
