  • Wrestles With God

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 31, 2006
    based on 26 ratings
     | 7,117 views

    The whole experience of PRAYER is not to wrestle with God over our demands, but to know the heart of the One who seek to bless us and call us to a higher purpose in life, and help us understand our utter dependence on Him for success.

    This picture of Jacob wrestling with a God-man can be considered as one of the most bizarre encounter in the Bible. • He was all alone, having sent his family and all his possessions across the stream. • It was in the night, and he wrestled with this God-man until daybreak. Many see him as a hero ...read more

    Why do you think God administers tests in our lives? Tests from God always have a spiritual purpose and a spiritual growth process for us in our faith walk with the Lord.

    “God’s Test!” On the lighter side of life: Three old men were at the doctor’s office for a memory test. The doctors said to the first old man, “What is three times three?” “Two-hundred seventy four,” he replied. The doctor said to the second man, “it’s your turn. What is three times three?” ...read more

    Every one wants to partake of the blessings God had promised for us, but not anyone wants to climb that mountain of Provision to which HE excitedly waits,and wants us to leave an inheritance and a legacy for our children and the generations to come.

    We are celebrating our Father’s Day today, and the best example of a father on this occasion is the father of our faith just as the Bible says in Galatians 3:6-9;"just as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness, therefore know that ONLY THOSE who are of faith are sons ...read more

    THE LABOR OF LOVE (GEN. 29:9-35) One of the best quotes on love I know of comes from Liz Carpenter. She said, “Love is a moment and a lifetime. It is looking at him (a person) across a room and feeling that if I don’t send the rest of my life with him, I’ll have missed the boat.” More than 66% of ...read more

    based on 16 ratings
     | 7,696 views

    Sometimes, the only way that we can get the answer to our prayer is to get alone with God and wrestle long enough to get the victory.

    GOING ONE ON ONE WITH GOD By Pastor Jim May How many of you love being in a crowd? I suppose the answer to that question would depend upon what we are calling a “crowd”. For some folks, a crowd consists of anything more than 2 people. For others, the more people there are, the happier they ...read more

  • Confrontation! Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on May 20, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,096 views

    Laban confronts Jacob after God tells him to leave and go to Canaan. We learn how God peels away the flesh and transforms us with His character through the confrontation between Laban and Jacob.

    I don’t like confrontation - especially with people who I know have ulterior motives and are trying to trip me up and get the best of me. I get obsessed about it - and it makes my stomach churn. I’m sure Jacob was feeling some of those feelings as he thought about Laban - who at every turn cheated ...read more

  • Jacob's Final Transformation Series

    based on 34 ratings
     | 10,628 views

    After Jacob gave his heart to God, and saw the Lord change his character, there was a point where God needed to break Jacob so that he would be fully devoted. God does that in our lives as well - what does it mean?

    You give your heart to the Lord - saying "I’m yours, be my Lord and Savior." Then the Father begins a process of transformation. The Apostle Paul put it this way: "being transformed into His image with ever increasing glory" (1 Cor 3:18). That transformation process often involves the tearing ...read more

    We are admonished to put away the false God’s from before us. Let us look at what God’s word tells us in light of this.

    Put Away False God’s God often allows the ungodly to amass great wealth--to their destruction. But if you are one with whom God is dealing and if you put the pursuit of riches (or anything else) before service to Christ, God may take away those riches (and other things) until you turn to Him. Some ...read more
