    God Is Able

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 12, 2023

     | 4,115 views

    As we have entered a New Year God reminds us through His Word that He is able, He will deliver us and He will lift us up, no matter what the year may hold or what challenges may come our way.

    The promise to us from the Lord for the year 2023 is taken from 2 Corinthians 9:8, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:” (KJV) Let us meditate on God’s word to understand that God is able to do ...read more

    What Wilt Thou Have Me To Do?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 13, 2023
     | 1,587 views

    A man on his way to work has an encounter that he was not prepared for. His life changed that day and he was never the same, nor were the people that he knew or met as he traveled.

    Undoubtedly many people have heard this story of Paul’s conversion on the road to Damascus. The story of how the primary enemy of the early church meets Jesus is told in Acts 9:1-9. Saul, the man who had detained the followers of Jesus in Jerusalem (Acts 7:58, 8:1-3), moves north to Damascus, ...read more

    Sin Is Sin: Murder Or Telling A Lie

    Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,023 views

    Many struggle with the concept that sin is sin. Murder, stealing, telling a lie…they are all sin. But how can telling a lie be just as bad as murder?

    ******************* A lot of us struggle with the concept that sin is sin. Murder, stealing, telling a lie… we can all agree that those are sins. But we tend to rate sins and say one sin is worse than another. How can telling a lie be just as bad as murder? There’s a verse in the Bible that ...read more

    The Offerings That Speak Series

    Contributed by Senior Pastor Ndayiragije-Misigaro Joel on Jan 18, 2023
     | 3,371 views

    Though many beliefs concur that offering to your local church is to enrich your pastor, that is a lie. Moreover, one needs to look at the benefits of giving in the first place. Why do I give my offerings? What are the benefits? What motivates you to give?

    The offerings that speak. Written by Senior Pastor Ndayiragije Misigaro Joel, January 18, 2023 Deuteronomy 8:17-18 "Beware lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.’ You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the power ...read more

    God pleads with Habakkuk, “Whatever you do refuse to leave the vision.” Habakkuk 2:4MSG “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.”

    What Vision Will Do. Habakkuk 2:1-4NKJV Very Important introduction: Habakkuk the prophet, that’s pretty much the introduction of this great book. Habakkuk begins with complaints to the Lord. Habakkuk feels like God should step in and just wipe Israels enemies out. (Kill them). Habakkuk just ...read more

    Parents And Children Relationship In The Lord Series

    Contributed by Timilehin Daniel Olabiyi on Jan 21, 2026
     | 102 views

    We have tried education, legislation, and every other approach, but nothing seems to work as parent are producing wayward children daily (and it saddens to say Christian Homes are not excluded). God's great program is to "gather together in one all things in Christ" (Eph 1:10).

    After watching a television presentation about rebellious youth, a husband said to his wife, "What a mess! Where did our generation go wrong?" The wife calmly answered, "We had children." It seems no matter where we look in modern society, we see antagonism, division, and ...read more

    Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for I don’t see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but I looks on the heart."

    January 24, 2026 Samuel was devastated by Saul’s choices and grieved for many months. Finally, Yahweh sent Samuel a message: "How long will you grieve over Saul? I have rejected him from being king over Israel. Fill your horn with oil and set out; I will send you to Jesse the ...read more

    Ephesians 3:14–19 Holy Spirit Presence In Ephesians 3, Paul prays for the church in Ephesus with a kind of spiritual compassion that reveals how deeply he cares for them. He’s writing from prison, yet he doesn’t dwell on his own problems. Instead, his heart turns toward others — toward their ...read more

    Being Renewed (Graduation Sunday) Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Jun 5, 2021
     | 2,314 views

    We think home is a place of renewal. We think we can go home and rest. And we can, but only if our focus is right. Home won’t renew us, won’t build us up, unless the focus of our home is on the One who raises us into a new kingdom, a new reality.

    Main: If you’re looking for snapshots of well-adjusted and happy parent-child relationships from the ancient world, the Bible probably shouldn’t be on your short list of sources. Consider even Jesus’ family, for example. The New Testament preserves evidence suggesting that Jesus’ relationship with ...read more

    Life is full of struggles without Christ. Life is not for he that willeth nor runneth but of God that showeth mercy hence by strength shall no man prevail. Anyone that must make it in life, must be connected to Jesus.

    Genesis 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

    Examining The Doctrine Of Generational Curses

    Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Sep 11, 2023
     | 2,639 views

    Can someone inherit a generational curse? Do believers in Christ need deliverance from generational curses? Let us examine the scriptures to determine if the doctrine of generational curses is taught in the Bible.

    EXAMINING THE DOCTRINE OF GENERATIONAL CURSES (by brother Tarran Dookie) WHAT IS MEANT BY A GENERATIONAL CURSE? A generational curse is said to be a curse that is passed on from one generation to another generation, from a person’s parent, grandparent or other ancestor. A generational curse is ...read more

    Do you ever wish God would just send you a text message? You’ve hit the proverbial fork in the road and you’re not sure which road to take. Wouldn’t it be nice if God just sent you a text message and said, “Go right!”

    Who Will Roll Away The Stone? (Easter Sunrise 2015)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 6, 2022
     | 2,036 views

    We seem to need the evidence of the stone being rolled away before we will believe. Is our fear creating distance between who we are and who God wants us to be?

    WHO WILL ROLL AWAY THE STONE? Text: Mark 16:1- 20 Did you notice who saw Jesus first? Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Salome were wondering who would roll the stone away. That stone can be thought of as a metaphor---a barrier between belief and unbelief. As ...read more

    The Council of Jerusalem was held in Jerusalem around AD 50. It is unique among the ancient pre-ecumenical councils, because many considered it to be the prototype and forerunner of future councils.

    Some people use the word 'love' in the same way they use 'like' or understand 'love' to express certain feelings. God's love is more than that! As we celebrate the Good Friday today, let’s meditate on the depth of God’s love.

    As we observe the Good Friday today, let’s meditate on the depth of God’s love. Let’s read Romans 5:5-11. The word 'love' has lost its true meaning. Some people use the word 'love' in the same way they use the word 'like.' They say, "I love God," "I love my ...read more
