    If there is confusion, chaos and disharmony, understand God is not in that because His works are perfect.

    The LORD is High for evermore. Psalm 92 verse 8.

    THE GREATNESS OF HIS WORKS. Psalm 92:1-15. This Psalm takes up a common Bible theme: the dichotomy between the “righteous” (Psalm 92:12) and the “wicked” (Psalm 92:7).

    God graciously works obedience into the lives of his people.

    Scripture Introduction Christians have disagreed and debated, since the earliest days of the church, God’s role versus the believer’s role in growth in godliness. Some Bible verses, considered by themselves, seem to support popular phrases like, “Let go and let God,” or “I can’t; God can.” Jesus ...read more

    Contributed by Lewis Martin on Jun 22, 2025
     | 87 views

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in your faith, stalled in your growth, or just unsure of where you stand with God, Paul has a word for you today: The Gospel isn’t just how you begin—it’s how you keep going. And it’s how you’ll finish.

    “The Gospel at Work in You” Philippians 1:1–11 Ok, I can be honest with myself: I need to lose weight. This isn’t about vanity—it’s about health. I’ve felt it in my energy levels, my sleep, and the way my clothes fit. I remember back in December thinking, “I really need to get serious about ...read more

    There is one way to work for God, the right way.

    INTRODUCTION Work. How does that word make you feel? What images does that word produce in your mind? Do you view work as good or bad? What do you think of work? Many view work as a burden. For them, work is something to be avoided. Rather than something which gives them dignity, work is viewed ...read more

    Work Of Thy Hands

    Contributed by Paul Richard on Jun 30, 2020
     | 4,685 views

    Work exists before man. The creation of man and other things were the handiwork of God and they were good. What a pity! Today’s man has a wrong perception about work for the sake of instant reward, personal gain or interest.

    I. In general term, work is an activity, task, duty, responsibility or assignment. When something is created, done or made, work is said to have taken place (Genesis 1:11, Genesis 1:21, Genesis 1:25-27). Work is done to achieve a particular outcome or result which oftentimes is either positive or ...read more

    Jesus And Peter Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Jun 5, 2014
     | 9,254 views

    If we learn from Peter – hear the straight talk of Jesus to Peter and to us we can avoid a lot of the pitfalls and mistakes Peter made. If we yield to the straight talk of Jesus – listen – repent – change course then we too can make a difference for the Kingdom of Heaven.

    Theme: Let’s Talk Series 3: Straight Talk What is it? It’s like when your spouse asks if the new outfit makes her look fat and you say, “Yes, you look like you gained 30 pounds!” It’s like when your wife asks if you love her new haircut and you say, “No you ...read more

    Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. John 7 shows us the struggle many had with hearing Jesus, even his brothers.

    Chapter 7 opens with Jesus having to stay clear of Judea because he was in danger of being killed there. Is there anywhere you know of that people are looking to kill you if you show up? Just imagine that. Next we learn that there is a feast of Tabernacles coming up and Jesus’ brothers tell him ...read more
