    Being A Card Carrying Believer

     | 2,598 views

    Worry or fret indicates a lack of trust in God’s wisdom, sovereignty and power. I’m going to give you the antidote to anxiety. Are you ready? Delighting in the Lord and meditating on His word.

    Being a Card Carrying Believer Philippians 4:6-9 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ ...read more

    We've Must Get To Holy Ground

    Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Oct 23, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,320 views

    This text reminds us that our goal in life should be neither reaching high ground nor good ground, but rather holy ground; woe be unto us if we use elevation and wealth as substitutes for being holy.

    Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian; he led his flock beyond the wilderness, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of a bush; he looked, and the bush was blazing, yet it was not consumed. ...read more

    When was the last time that you connected the dots and realized that you’re being here today is because of what Jesus did on the cross for you? How have you expressed your gratitude and praise?

    From the party at Bethany to the peace at Ephraim Matthew 26:6-13 Mark 14:3-9 John 12:1-11 After Jesus raised Lazarus to life the village of Bethany went ballistic. A man named Simon the Leper threw a party in honor of Jesus with Lazarus at the head table. I think we can assume that Simon the ...read more

    In the warm up to the presidential election to be held on February 14, 2015 in Nigeria, I wish to call the attention of the Nigerian Church to some scriptural points on what really can be the undoing of a church.

    In the warm up to the presidential election to be held in February 14, 2015 in Nigeria, there is fear expressed from certain quarters of the Nigerian Church as to the emergence of a Muslim candidate who may end up exterminating Christianity in Nigeria or at least prepare the ground for such ...read more

     | 6,369 views

    This was inspired by a sermon outline by Russell E. Spray that he published in his book; "Simple Outlines on the Christian Faith." (1977 Baker Book House).

    THE BEST LIFE HAS TO OFFER: Psalm 37:1-8 I saw a statement the other day that said, “I’m having a rough day. What I need is a hug ~ and a check for two million dollars.” • So often we are taught that somehow we deserve the best that life has to offer. • What if I told ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,942 views

    Being a Christian is not defined by what we do, or what we do not do; but by who we are, and Whose we are.

    A COMPLETE WAY OF LIFE. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24. Many people labour under the misapprehension that Christianity is negative, emphasising the prohibitions of the Ten Commandments. Yet even the Decalogue has positive commands: “Remember the Sabbath day”; “Honour your father and mother” - along ...read more
