    When You Stand Before God

    Contributed by James Lee on Oct 17, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,824 views

    I often hear people make this statement: “As long as I pray and ask God to forgive me, NOW & THEN and try to be nice to people…I’ll get to heaven.”

    I often hear people make this statement: “As long as I pray and ask God to forgive me, NOW & THEN and try to be nice to people…I’ll get to heaven.” That sounds good but is it true. Is that all there is to getting to heaven? I want you to know that each and every one of ...read more

    Pray Without Ceasing

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Aug 12, 2014
     | 5,025 views

    Breaking 100 coconuts, burning 100 candles, writing prayer request 1 lakh times, rolling beads, climbing the steps with an offering on the head, shaving your hair would do no good in Christianity.

    Prayer points! 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ”Pray without ceasing.” When we want certain things desperately, why not pray desperately? That’s my question! We wait desperately for a promotion, job, partner and what not; yet, we fail to desperately pray because we are doubtful of the ...read more

    Millions Worldwide Celebrate the Resurrection. But What If Christ Had Not Risen?

    1 CORINTHIANS 15:13-20AM “But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised; and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain [useless, amounting to nothing], and your faith is also vain [imaginary, unfounded, devoid of value and benefit--not based on ...read more

    For Their Deeds Follow Them!

    based on 2 ratings
     | 12,157 views

    Never for a moment think that whatever you do would be over when you leave this earth, listen for a moment, good or bad, your deeds would follow you! Caveat!

    For their deeds follow them! Revelations 14:13“And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!" Never for a moment think that ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,001 views

    There is a time to wait, and a time to move forward.

    WITH WINGS LIKE EAGLES. Isaiah 40:21-31. When Isaiah was first commissioned (Isaiah 6:8-9), he saw the LORD ‘high and lifted up’ (Isaiah 6:1). Now at his second commissioning (Isaiah 40:6), he sees the LORD ‘sitting above the circle of the earth’ (Isaiah 40:22). I call this the ‘second ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,266 views

    Yes, God plants the seed that is His Word in the heart of a person that is entwined with thorns, that is the cares and riches of this world. Well, what do we do? We’ve got to get rid of the thorns

    THORNS! 'And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares, and riches, and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.' -- Luke 8:14. God kept whispering the word ‘THORNS’ in my ears! As I kept walking, sitting ...read more

    There is a Fountain of Living Waters who never disappoints.

    (read Jeremiah 2:9-13) In his commentary on the book of Jeremiah, Andrew Blackwood says this: “Many Palestinians were dependent upon cisterns, laboriously carved from the rock. Cistern water at best is flat and tasteless; it is easily contaminated with various types of growth that produce ...read more

     | 5,924 views

    The first necessary step in redemption (#4 in the ’Every Spiritual Blessing’ series)

    As we continue in this study in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, we must be careful not to skip merrily along, flitting from one verse or phrase to the next and on to the next, touching the surface of each, like a bee gathering pollen, and never looking back at previous verses, or even stopping to ...read more

    based on 38 ratings
     | 10,898 views

    The world is in a darkness that is total and powerful. Only the true Light can dispell it. (#17 in the Unfathomable Love of Christ series)

    “This I say therefore, and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart; ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,670 views

    The Christ-follower will be challenged to examine their lives for areas where evil has taken root and learn to resist evil by trusting Christ’s sovereignty and by standing firm in community, salvation and God’s truth.

    Open your Bible to 2 Thessalonians and as you are doing so let me remind you of why this Harley and scooter are on the stage. Last week we used these items as an analogy to describe our faith journey in Christ. The scooter represents a Christ-follower who is playing it safe and being rather passive ...read more

    Title: Hanging on to Life Objective: Every person must follow Christ to live a life of purpose.

    We need a renewed mind to see ourselves as newly created in the likeness of God, then put on the new man daily. (# 18 in the Unfathomable Love of Christ series)

    “But you did not learn Christ in this way, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in ...read more
