    The Heart Of The One Whom God Prospers Series

    Contributed by Jason Pettibone on May 14, 2007
     | 4,008 views

    there is something more fundamental to becoming a person with a blessed life even than having a dream. It is something called, ‘heart!’ Obviously I’m not talking about the fist-sized knot of muscle in your chest that pumps the blood through your body!

    Last week, my intent was to convince you from the Scripture, of this fact - “God loves to bless His children!” We defined blessings, not so much in terms of the normal measures of worldly success - being wealth, fame, or beauty. These are certainly desirable, but God loves to bless us with things ...read more

    If you want to know if you’ve truly been born again answer the question: "Who is your spiritual daddy?"

    I guess it’s a sign of the times in which we live, but a couple of years ago I saw a billboard on I-85 in Charlotte that said, “Who’s the daddy?” There was a picture of a baby and an ad for a genetic testing lab beneath the picture. It’s sad that young folks are so promiscuous they have to have a ...read more

    Text: “Be very careful, then, how you live – not as unwise but as wise” (v. 15). Introduction: I wonder how many people ever think along these lines.

    God is to be trusted to bless our nation, even when there are problems in the world.

    Scripture Introduction It might seem that nothing could be less relevant than a chapter from an ancient book, describing a transition in political power of a nation half the world away, which occurred over 3000 years ago!

    Part 1 of a 2 part sermon on some of the beautiful lessons we can learn from the events surrounding the resurrection of Lazurus.

    BELIEVEST THOU THIS? Jn. 11:25-26 INTRO. As a preacher of the truth of Jesus Christ, it is a disgusting thing, to me, to hear someone ascribe the holy power of God to the depraved weakness of man.

    Following Jesus can be difficult, but all who choose this path will be greatly rewarded in the end.

Read Matthew 8:34-38. “If anyone would come after me” means “If anyone wants to be my disciple (in other ...read more

    The life, and crucifixion of Christ are historical facts as is the empty tomb. Christianity is rooted in historical events.

    What is the most significant event in world history? No doubt, you can receive as many answers to that question as there are people. But for the Christian, the answer is simple. The most significant event in the history of mankind is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Some religions, both ...read more
