Illustration: John Maxwell in his book Failing Forward, said, "The difference between average people and achieving people is their perception and response to failure...What does matter is that your life can change if you're ...read more

    We need strong faith to combat severe famine! Friend, I’m not going to tell you that you would never face problems and things will always be cozy and rosy all the time, but instead I say today, even in the midst of calamity, we need to collect ourselves

    Fear not! Abraham – Part 2 Genesis 12:10”And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.” We need strong faith to combat severe famine! Friend, I’m not going to tell you that you would never ...read more

     | 6,466 views

    This is the 23rd sermon in our series on the Book of Genesis. In this sermon we examine God's promises to Abraham in the covenant.

    Promises to Abraham (Genesis part 23) Text: Genesis 12:1-9 By: Ken McKinley (Read Text) Abraham is probably one of the most important characters in all of history. All three monotheistic religions (Islam, Judaism, and Christianity) revere him as the father of their faiths. National Geographic ...read more

    Faith in the Famine (Genesis part 24) Text: Genesis 12:10 – 20 By: Ken McKinley (Read Text) The very first sentence of our text tells us that while Abram was living in the Promised Land, a famine struck and he moved to Egypt to escape it.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 - Ok, He’s Dead! What Have I Inherited? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 9, 2010
    based on 30 ratings
     | 6,380 views

    Some criticize him for staying in Haran saying that he fell short of the promises of God, distracted by the attraction of wealth. I don’t think he was saying, OK, HE’S DEAD! WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? But he did stay in Haran until his father died.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 (NASB) - OK, HE’S DEAD. WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? I understand the upheaval of moving to a different city. Packing endless boxes of books, dismantling beds and throwing out all the junk we have accumulated over time - big job. Then watching a huge truck back into our ...read more

    Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - When God Hijacks Your Life? Series

    based on 57 ratings
     | 27,418 views

    I can't imagine packing the removal truck and saying to the driver to pull out without knowing what town you wanted him to go to. "DON'T ASK QUESTIONS! JUST DRIVE!" Sounds like a terrorist trying to hijack a vehicle.

    Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - DON'T ASK QUESTIONS, JUST DRIVE! When God hijacks your life! If you have kids, you know the routine. Five minutes into the trip they are asking "WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHEN DO WE GET THERE? ARE WE THERE YET?" At least Abram didn't have any kids, because he would have had a ...read more

    Part 3 - Genesis 12:10 - 20 - This Service Has Been Disconnected Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 11, 2010
    based on 45 ratings
     | 9,016 views

    In Genesis 12:10 in lean times, "Abram went down to Egypt". There is no mention of Abram calling out to God. He's a business man. He just makes a logical decision, but it is decision that is devoid of the promises God gave him. DISCONNECTION big time!

    PART 3 - GENESIS 12:10 - 20 - THIS SERVICE HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED. PLEASE TRY ANOTHER NUMBER. We were standing in line to go into Church. It was a long line and we had to wait for some time for the doors to be opened. Although the auditorium seated 1,500 people, some people would have to come to ...read more

    Jesus had taught us the principle of prosperity in the Bible, a path that leads to blessings.

    A Father's Day sermon that examines Abraham's fatal decision to betray his wife out of fear of Pharaoh, and the consequences of the "faltering faith" of this otherwise great man of faith.

    A challenge to take leap of faith - a risk - for God

    Genesis 12:1-9 Hebrews 11:1-3 & 8-12 Psalm 91 Mark 1:16-20 This year is a leap year. 29 February is a special day which comes round only once every four years. 29 February is considered by some as a day to do something out of the usual, such as women proposing marriage to men.

    Go Thy Way: When Abram Went To Egypt Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 28, 2020
     | 3,393 views

    The phrase "go thy way" appears several times in the King James Version of the Bible. This first message speaks of Abram and how he got into trouble in a foreign land!

    Introduction: Even the best of God’s saints will face problems at one time or another. Abram had his share of troubles, too, and the passage below gives a few details of one episode which Abram would probably just as soon forget! When famine came, Abram left the land of promise and wound up in the ...read more

     | 5,509 views

    What do we think of when we think of "The Altar?" For some it brings back sweet memories from our childhood. For others just confusion and misunderstandings. We cannot experience a move of God without The Altar! Today, let's take a quick look at the subject of "The Altar."

    Isaiah 55:6-7 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

    Series: Recovering Stolen Identity & Reclaiming Misplaced Destiny: Part 3a: Difference B/W Predestination (Fate) & Free Will – The Cost Of Destiny

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 4,594 views

    Identity: Answers the question: ‘Who has God called you to be?’ Destiny: Answers the question: ‘What has God called you to do?’ So identity leads to destiny. Without knowing who you are, you cannot reach your destiny. Say “yes” to Jesus or you will lose your way.

     | 4,618 views

    Many Biblical characters changed their destinies thru prayers. Destiny is never a product of laziness. Jacob sought his with tears & prayers. Hannah sought hers thru fasting. David achieved his thru flight & isolation. God never rewards lazy Christians.
