Cultivate Revival

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 12, 2015

Revival is awakening, float-ation, renewed vision, passion, emancipation, & Holy Spirit prompting. Most Christians are suffering the 7 symptoms of dehydration -- deficient in the Holy Spirit. Our culture deprives us of spiritual oxygen. We must breathe!

Jehovah-Nissi

Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 2, 2017

Because God is our Banner, there should be 3 R's in our lives: 1. Resistance to the world in us, 2. God should be our Rallying Point, and 3. the Redeemer's Name -- Jesus Christ -- gives us authority over sickness & demons, it saves us & we gather in it.

JEHOVAH-NISSI Isa. 59:19, Ex. 17:15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A pastor had a little kitten stuck up in a tree.

How Good Friday Is Good For Us

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 4, 2015

Jesus sees all our sins, but because he had made the ultimate sacrifice with his blood, we can have forgiveness. Christ is the sin eater who has taken care of all our sins, and that is another reason why Good Friday is good for us.

What is so good about Good Friday? That is the question many of us probably ask when Good Friday comes around every year. After all, what is good about a day that commemorates Jesus' horrible torture and execution on a Roman cross? Good Friday is a dark day in some respects because it ...read more

Knowing The God Who Knows You

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 25, 2016

If God knows me so well, how could he possibly love me? Yet, scripture says he loves us completely, even though he knows our every thought, motive, and word before we do. Not only does he know and love us, he protects and guides us. We have a great God!

Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18 Knowing the God Who Knows You Sometimes we doubt God’s love for us. Sure he loves the whole world, but does he love me? If God is a perfect God (and he is), and if I’m not perfect (and I’m not), how is it that an all-perfect God would even want to know me? ...read more

Set Us On Fire God!

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jul 25, 2012

If we are to live lives that are pleasing and acceptable to God; if we are to carry out the purpose to which He has called us we need to a spiritual passion and to rekindle the fire. We need the power of God’s Holy Spirit to fall on us and set on fire.

“Set Us on Fire God!” I Thessalonians 5:19 Paul exhorted the Thessalonian Christians not to quench or extinguish the Holy Spirit. It’s easy for us to get sidetracked by the things of this world causing us to lose our passion for the things of God and allowing the flames of our ...read more
