    We often have preconceived ideas as to how God is going to do something for us. We have certain ways we want to see it happen, but God may have a different idea.

    May, 2007 "God, This is the Way I Want It" II Kings 5:8-15 "But Naaman was wroth, and went away and said, Behold, I thought he will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the Lord his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper." II Kings ...read more

    The Life That Stands Through A Storm

    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,944 views

    This is a message based on Jesus' parable of the Wise and foolish Builders. Anything less than Jesus Christ, and the word of God to build our lives on will fail us.

    *THE LIFE THAT STANDS THROUGH A STORM* Matthew 7:24-27 Dorn Ridge & York Manor February 26, 2012 (Perhaps a quarter of this message originated with another contributor.) INTRODUCTION: 1.) Jesus was the great illustrator, and one of the places this is clearly seen are in His parables. A.) ...read more

     | 1,095 views

    In regards to our faith, we must take head knowledge and make it heart knowledge. We must live what we believe. The road to Emmaus helps us to avoid be foolish and slow of heart in order to live and share our faith.

    THE JOY OF THE EASTER STORY IS, ABOVE ALL ELSE, WHEN JESUS AROSE FROM THE DEAD. IN ADDITION TO THAT TRIUMPHANT VICTORY, JESUS MADE APPEARANCES NOT ONLY TO THE REMAINING DISCIPLES, BUT, ACCORDING TO 1 CORINTHIANS 15:6, TO 500 OTHER BELIEVERS WHO WITNESSED HIM ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

    The glitter of the "General's" stars are blinding others from seeing their place in the kingdom.

    In this generation everyone wants to be a general in God’s army. Prophecies abound that tell people they will be rich and finance the Kingdom. They will have a worldwide dynamic ministry. They will win thousands to the Lord and so on. No one seems to get a prophetic mission to be a good ...read more

    Faith in God isn’t foolish, but faith in God is grounded in the steadfastness of His word and, what Jesus did while on this earth.

    Blind Faith Text: Matthew 9 27-31 Blind faith isn’t assuming something far fetched, nor is it placing a fleece before God before you ever take action. Blind faith simply believes Jesus and God’s word and then acts on it! Blind faith is trusting without feeling or seeing; ...read more

    Fighting Temptation (The Impala Christian)

    Contributed by Kayode Omotoso on May 18, 2016
     | 3,503 views

    Fighting temptation is foolish. The Bible does not enjoin any to resist temptation but the devil while we abstain from every appearance of evil.

    Sometimes in the month, I saw a documentary involving the animals, jackal and impala. Jackal with an average weight of 10kg is a carnivore belonging to the same family as wolf and dog while impala is an African antelope having two long horns and an average weight of 60kg. Both of them live in the ...read more

    The most obvious is God’s idea to redeem man through the death of His son.

    I. INTRODUCTION The concept of the extent of God’s love can be easily debated among many great thinkers. God’s emotional stance considers loving even those who have fallen or continues to be a rebellion against His perfected will. The Word of God gives the most beautiful expressions ...read more
