    Finding God For Yourself

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 10, 2013
     | 8,570 views

    All the way through the Old Testament we find that God does not want the godly to marry with the ungodly. And the New Testament tells Christians that they are not to be unequally yoked. For example, it says in 2 Corinthians, “Do not be unequally yoked to

     | 32,396 views

    Jacob had an encounter with God that shook him to his core. This fugitive on the run discovered that his ancestors' God was his God, and that this God would be with him wherever he went. Great lessons for us to learn on our faith pilgrimage.

    Genesis 28:10-19 When God Shows Up In today’s story, Jacob was in a strange place to meet God. You might expect to encounter God at a church retreat or a revival meeting, or in an inspiring church service. You might expect to find God when you are serving him with all your heart. But Jacob had ...read more

    Continuing on with our sermon series in Genesis. In this sermon we look at Jacob's encounter with the Lord, and how God directs him, and provides for him, because of God's purpose in election

    Jacob’s Ladder Text: Genesis 28:10 – 22 By: Ken McKinley (Read Text) You know… our salvation is first & foremost about what God has done; and only secondarily about our response to what He has done, and I personally can’t think of many passages in the Bible which make that more clear than what ...read more

     | 6,353 views

    God is living and he makes the Promises to his followers and Devotees. He keeps up the promises and he expects his disciples to follow throughout their life journey. That is known as Covenant life.

    Genesis 28:10-22 Introduction: Promises are not the vision given to people. Promises are given beyond imagination against odd situations. Promises are made to inculcate faith, trust, integrity and to rely on God. Promises in the Bible are very unique, though common in all languages. Unchanging ...read more

    As Jacob flees for his life after deceiving his brother, God meets him at Bethel. He is not lost and alone, for God has not lost him! God shows him a stairway to heaven, which prefigures Jesus (John 1:47-51). God invites us to walk with him into a new lif

    The experience of Jacob at Bethel, and what it can mean today -- God still extends his staircase down to us at unexpected times.

    The story of Jacob and his brother Esau is a tangled one, filled with deceit, intrigue and animosity. Esau despised his birthright and sold it to Jacob for a pot of stew.
