     | 25,758 views

    Peter and John seem to have been led by the Holy Spirit, to perform a miracle on a man who was over forty years old and had been a cripple from his birth.

    Tuesday, January 5, 2016 A Lame Man Healed (Acts 3.1-11) Note: since this is a long sermon, I suggest it be given in two parts; part 1 (vs. 1-5) on Sunday morning, and part 2 (vs. 6-11) on Sunday evening.

    The Showdown In The Desert (Matthew 4:1-11)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2024
     | 5,092 views

    After being baptized in the Jordan river, Jesus was driven into the Judean wilderness by the Holy Spirit to face forty days of hunger, thirst, and a supernatural battle with His archenemy and ours, the devil.

    The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness of Judea, a barren, dry, and desolate area. It would be a place of severe testing where He would encounter the works and wiles of the devil, a real being whose aim was to try and tempt Jesus to abuse HIs power, lose His faith, or submit to the ...read more

    Unanswered Prayer (Part 2) Series

     | 1,904 views

    God invites us to ask Him, and we will receive (Mat 7:7). But why does He sometimes not answer our prayers? This sermon series explains several possibilities for why God does not grant our prayers.

    We have learned that God invites us to ask Him what we need (Matthew 7:7) because, number one, God wants us to be close to Him; number two, God wants us to always depend on Him; and number three, God wants to show His love to us. When we ask something from Him, we must be ready to get His ...read more

    Father Dave’s Sermon on Matthew 21:33-46 & the East Timorese Martyrs. The nature of God, the price he’s willing to pay for His ’Vineyard’ and the wait for the justice that will eventually take place.

    Wednesday is the feast of ’the Saints and Martyrs of Asia’. It is a tragic irony that on the very day it is celebrated, more East Timorese martyrs will probably be added to their number! A Protestant Christian leader has been killed. The Communion of Churches in Indonesia has confirmed that the ...read more

    While there are a number of preaching patterns to follow, I keep coming back to a simple outline I first learned some forty years ago. It goes like this – Hook, Book, Look and Took.

    The Sermon that Launched the Church Acts 2:14-41 Rev. Brian Bill October 12-13, 2019 I’ll never forget what happened when it was my turn to preach in my first homiletics class at Moody.

    When God called the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, it was not His plan to make them wander in the wilderness for forty years. He intended for that generation of His people to immediately receive their promised inheritance.

    THE FAITH FACTOR - GO GET YOUR BLESSING! We are all familiar with the story of Moses and the children of Israel. After Moses led the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, they spent forty, very difficult years wandering in the desert before they could enter the promised land. The Bible presents us ...read more

    Hardships Series

    When we face times of hardship, it can be confusing and stressful. As God did when He dealt with the Israelites as they wandered for forty years, God has a purpose for you when you inflicted with hardships.

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • I think all of us either have, are, or will deal with hardships in our life. • When we are a Christian, these times can be confusing to us because we have the idea that belonging to Jesus somehow shields us from hardships in life. • Either while you are in the midst of a ...read more

    Contributed by Revd Dr Ruwan Palapathwala on Jan 1, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 920 views

    Temptation is our awful struggle not to lose ourselves and our potential to lose ourselves. Temptation also highlights God’s mercy and grace in our lives in the wilderness for forty minutes, hours, days or years.

    In today’s Gospel reading, we encounter the most human and common experience: temptation, which Jesus also experienced in a very profound way. The temptations of Jesus are found in all four Gospels. But we are accustomed to thinking that Jesus was tempted three times before his public ministry ...read more
