    The God Who Sees Me

    Hagar was a woman who never thought God would take notice of her. She wasn't important or wealthy or full of faith. Her only claim to fame was that she ended up in the middle of a big, ugly, complicated, mess. Yet God knew who she was!

    THE GOD WHO SEES ME Genesis 16:1-14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Paul Dickson has written a book entitled, What’s In A Name? In that book he shares some of the most unusual names he’s come across. How would you like to have any of these for your name? Cletus Clodfelter, Rotten Earp, Jinglebells ...read more

    During this holiday season minor problems seem to grow

    Some people are strongly affected by the “Christmas Blues.” Minor problems seem to grow in magnitude during this season which should be devoted to 'glad tidings and joyfulness. It seems we've all have some problems from time to time. I'm not talking about trivial things like; what ...read more

    An Angel Spoke To Hagar

    Hagar was in the wilderness in Genesis 16. God sent an angel to her. We can learn a lot from her experience.

    When Hagar got pregnant with Ishmael, she despised Sarah and was disrespectful toward her. (Genesis 16:4b) Sarah told Abraham, “When she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes.” Abraham told Sarah to handle the situation as she pleased. Sarah “dealt harshly” with Hagar, and Hagar ...read more

    Mother's Day - God Sees Us (Looking At Hagar)

    A Mother's Day sermon looking at Hagar naming God, "the God who sees."

    The God Who Sees Genesis 16:6-13 May 12, 2019 There’s a few things we all have in common. One of them is the fact that at one time we were all children. And one thing I’ve learned about kids is that they love to be watched. They love to be noticed. It comes in different shapes and sizes, but ...read more

    Even when the times are tough, and we feel like God should act … we must wait on Him! Abram and Sarai refused to hear this, and acted impulsively to usher in the birth of a child.

    Introduction - 2023 has had one primary “purpose”: To know there is a God! -- Continuing our series, “Alpha and Omega”; examining the beginning to the end - Last week we examined the promise God gave Abram which is also for us! -- Even in the face of despair and frustration (which many ...read more

    Forcing God’s Hand

    This message looks at the account of someone who was given a promise by God that he would receive a great blessing. But he, along with his wife, took matters into their own hands, and tried to get ahead of God, leading to strife.

    In our message this morning we’re going to focus on how we need to have patience when following the Lord. Hebrews is a book of the Bible that frequently talks about following God in faith, and we read that those who are patient will be able to “inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:12). In Hebrews ...read more

    We love to read the brief descriptions of Jesus returning to His Father. But, what has He been doing since He returned to His Father's side? It is wonderful!

    Our Busy, Busy Ascended Savior Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

    Faith is the distinguishing mark of the Christian. Did you know that the Christians were called believers before they were ever called Christians? Believers – this is the distinguishing mark of a Christian, is he or she is a believer

    Abraham, Our Spiritual Father We continue to examine the story of Abraham, the father of the faithful. Our story today happens about 4,000 years from our day before Israel exits Egypt in Exodus – does that help you place our story? And even though Abraham lived so long ago, he remains vitally ...read more

    Live By God’s Promise! Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 24, 2022
     | 2,536 views

    The story of Hagar and the birth of Ishmael teaches us about what happens when we stop waiting on God. Our man-made plans will go astray. We need to seek God in all that we do.

    Time flies when you are having fun. Time does not fly when you are waiting on God’s promise. When you are waiting on God weeks can seem like years. Waiting on God can be one of the most challenging times. The temptation to step in and take control of the circumstances is great. It also causes ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Sixteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER SIXTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is Sarai gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram to have a child. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 16 Sarai, being barren, gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram: whom afterwards she treats hardly, having been despised by her. The angel ...read more

    If you are amazed at the willingness of Muslim radicals to die for what they believe in, ask yourself this: Who was called to this kind of commitment long before the Muslim radicals ever came into existence? Us

    Yesterday there were ceremonies all around the nation remembering the tragic events and loss of life that happened on September 11, 2001. Nineteen Muslim men hijacked four commercial airliners and converted them into flying bombs. Two crashed into two of the World Trade towers, causing the ...read more

    Scripture teaches us that God sees everything we do. The question for you is, Does that comfort you or concern you?

    Good morning. I’d like you to find Genesis 16 in your copy of God’s Word. And we’re going to wind up in John 4, so if you want to mark that too, then you’ll be ready at the end of the service. We have been talking in this series about the never changing, ever faithful God. Hebrews 13:8 says that ...read more

    Abram and Sarai tried to fulfill God's Promise themselves, by using Hagar and made a mess out of it.

    INTRODUCTION: Have you ever been at a restaurant and waited so long for your drinks, or for a refill, that you decide to just take things into your own hands and get them yourself?

    The name that we will be looking at in this sermon is the name El-Roi, which means "God who Sees me" or the "God of Vision".

    Do you ever feel like you live in a big world, and you are so small and insignificant that sometimes you wonder if even God knows you are here? Sometimes it seems like there are two kinds of people who live here, the SIGNIFICANT and the INSIGNIFICANT! Illus: For example, when Princess Diana died, ...read more
