Are You A Sower Of Discord

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Oct 28, 2020

God has called us to unity, but too many thinking they are sowing in His fields are actually tearing up the field causing malnutrition in the Body because there is no fruitful harvest only wasted seed.

These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among ...read more

Season For Figs

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 21, 2024

Jesus expected the fig tree to bear fruit even when it was not the season for figs. God is more concerned with His seasons, and expects us to live according to His seasons and not based on worldly seasons

And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. Mark 11:13 The fig tree was in tune with the world's seasons but not with God’s seasons. As per the ...read more

The Parable Of A Farmer

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Sep 2, 2022

If the word of God is not bearing fruit in your life, you're not studying the word of God; you're not hearing the word of God; you're not receiving the word of God.

Let me ask three questions before we start this message: 1. If the gospel is the power of God—why doesn't everybody that hears the gospel become a Christian? 2. If the Bible is the Word of God—why doesn't the Bible have the same effect on everyone who reads it? 3. If Jesus is the Son of ...read more

No More Excuses: Embrace Your Calling SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 8, 2023

The world may not see the fruits of our faith because we, like Moses, are hiding and making excuses instead of taking action. God often asks us to undertake challenging tasks. Will we trust Him? Do we respond with faith or excuses when God calls?

Today, we will delve deeper into this question by examining Moses' response to God's call in Exodus chapter 3. Are there things holding us back from being as ...read more
