    Only God has the right to make a name for us. Abraham submitted and was exalted, the people of Babel exalted and were humbled.

    The Humility of Abraham or Pride of Babel I want to start by looking at Isaiah 57: 15: For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to ...read more

Abram was asked of God to leave behind all that he had known, his country, his relatives and his home (Genesis 12: 1). Abram was asked by God to become a immigrant and a nomad. There are many who have left behind ...read more

    how to develop Christian character

    Supposing an important person in the space program phoned to invite us to travel in a spaceship to a space platform - like a house circling in space - how many of us would like to go?

     | 21,472 views

    God’s missionary perspective throughout history challenges us to ask the question: Are we in tune with the heartbeat of God?

    THE HEARTBEAT OF GOD In the church we have many clichés and buzzwords. We have used these phrases so often they have become commonplace. They still have their intellectual meaning, but they have lost their psychological impact. If you have been in the church for any time at all, you have heard ...read more

    When God speaks to us to do something, we often fear the risk of the invitation. Sometimes we refuse to take the first step because of not knowing the entire plan. What can we do about the invitation He gives us?

    The world, and all our enjoyments in it, must be looked at with a holy indifference and contempt so that we come to a place where we are no longer at home, but sit loose, reserving our affections for him.

    Have you ever found yourself to have placed something or someone in a higher place in your heart than God Almighty? I have. Over the last few weeks, I’ve sensed the Spirit of God working in me to rid me of distractions and obsessions that have kept me from being captivated in wonder of him and ...read more
