    The Fight Within The Wall Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,098 views

    The greatest problem in ministry is often the fight within. Beware of the seeds of discontent, distrust and rivalry that the evil One can sow within the Body of Christ. Don't let selfishness gets the better of us.

    What we learn last week: There will be oppositions in ministry. • We cannot stop what people will say but we can choose not to allow their words or deeds to discourage us from doing what is good and right, what is the will of God. • We choose not to be distracted; we FOCUS on what God ...read more

    Using points from a book on Nehemiah, by OS Hawkins, this sermon teaches that following God’s Vision requires us to get started well, start with a plan and step out of our comfort zone.

At each hole, you step up on the tee and hit your first shot, which generally determines how well you will do on the hole. If you drive the ball in the woods, you ...read more
