    Contributed by Steve Ely on Mar 30, 2010
    based on 13 ratings
     | 19,800 views

    We usually like for things to stay the same. However, sometimes an exchange takes place for our good. Some things need to be “Switched!”

    “Switched” Text: Genesis 48:1-2, 5, 8-20 1Some time later Joseph was told, "Your father is ill." So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim along with him. 2 When Jacob was told, "Your son Joseph has come to you," Israel rallied his strength and sat up on the bed. 5"Now then, your two sons born ...read more

     | 7,745 views

    Friend, the most important thing that I want to drive across today to each one of you is to have control over your emotions, are you listening?

    Turbulent spirit Genesis 49:4 “Turbulent as the waters, you will no longer excel, for you went up onto your father’s bed, onto my couch and defiled it.” In the case of the tribe of Reuben, Joseph prophesied, "Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, the first sign of my strength, ...read more

    Many have lost the race in life and have either committed suicide or have failed in life, because they have failed to know about Jehovah, who is our strength.

    Jehovah Nissi! Genesis 49:23”The archers have bitterly grieved him, Shot at him and hated him. 24 But his bow remained in strength…” Strength! I know all of you need heaps and heaps of them! Come on, I am not talking about physical strength, I’m talking about spiritual ...read more

    Shaping Your Legacy Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,822 views

    Jacob's blessing of his sons provides an opportunity for hearers to think about their legacy. A legacy is built by choices. Our legacy does not control us. In Christ, we create a new legacy.

    SHAPING YOUR LEGACY—Genesis 49 Have you thought about what kind of legacy you will leave for your descendants? I’m not talking about wealth or property, but about the impact we have on the lives of others. We have all inherited a legacy. (Note to preacher: Personalize this!) I am a cheap ...read more

    Reuben, Mister "Might Have Been” Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jul 13, 2022
     | 2,845 views

    The firstborn son had certain privileges in Hebrew families. Reuben, Jacob's oldest, gave in to sin and as a result, he lost his blessing and birthright. Don't make Reuben mistakes!

    Introduction: Back in the early 1980’s, Pastor Dale Burden, then living in the Tidewater area of Virginia (the cities near Norfolk and Virginia Beach) preached a message, or a series (IIRC) about Reuben, calling him “mister might have been”. After all these years, I still remember bits and pieces ...read more

    Simeon And Levi, United Then Divided Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jul 24, 2022
     | 2,196 views

    This message is about Simeon and Levi, the second and third sons of Jacob and Leah. They were very cruel to the inhabitants of Shechem (Gen. 34). Jacob never forgot about it and reminded them before he died.

    Introduction: Simeon and Levi were Jacob’s second and third sons. Leah was the mother of both. These two brothers aren’t mentioned often in Scripture, but both are known for one specific incident of cruelty at Shechem (Genesis 34). Jacob never forgot what they had done and when he was dying, gave a ...read more

     | 3,481 views

    Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah. He failed, several times, but God forgave him and gave him a future to be proud of.

    Introduction: Each of Jacob’s twelve sons was different from the others. That goes without saying, as any parent of more than one child will probably agree! Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah and his name is related to the Hebrew word for “praise (Gen. 29:35)”. Some of his deeds might have ...read more

    The Story of Judah is one of transformation

    August 06, 2022 We are going to backtrack a little bit today. It wasn’t until I started writing “Moses at the Burning Bush”, that I realized we really needed to talk about Judah. Here is his story: Genesis 29:31 tells us that Leah was unloved. When she gave birth to her first son, Reuben, she ...read more

    Expectations – General And Specific – Great And Small Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 3,782 views

    Expectations keep us hoping if they are good, and fearful if they are bad. There are many examples in the bible of expectations but I have selected only a few, then we look at Christian expectations. Even cricket is touched on.

    EXPECTATIONS – GENERAL AND SPECIFIC – GREAT AND SMALL I wonder how many are familiar with the novel “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens. Pip the orphan boy relates his story that is based around what expectations wait for him, surprises, incorrect assumptions, tragedy and a lot more. Well as ...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

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 31, 2023
     | 3,221 views

    The final chapter of Jacob's life provides a striking example of the power of a father's blessing. What can we learn that's can be applied to our role as fathers (and mothers).

    AT THE END: As Jacob comes to the end of his life, he blesses his children. - Genesis 48:1-49:28. - These two chapters share with us the final acts of Jacob. He has lived a long life and he knows he’s at the end (48:1-2; 49:29, 33). - The words that Jacob speaks are words of blessing (49:28). - ...read more

    The First Evangelistic Sermon

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 11, 2023
     | 841 views

    The fall of humanity as recorded in Genesis 3 shows the consequences of rebellion but also the promise of redemption from a merciful God who desires that no one perish, but that everyone would come to Him for everlasting life.

    The first eleven chapters of the book of Genesis are an authentic record of the beginning of the universe and the world. It is the work of Almighty God and is a testimony to logic, rationality, meaning, purpose, and the precise design of what we know as science. Within the first two chapters ...read more

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 3, 2022

     | 4,927 views

    Since success comes from partnership, collaboration, and cooperation, why should support be a one-way street? Maybe it’s time to start thinking about how you can support your pastors, your apostles, or your leaders to maximize their success.

    Sermon: How To Support Leadership Text: 1Ch 12:32, 38 And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment. 38 “All these men of war, that could keep ...read more
