    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 5, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,323 views

    Jesus chose twelve ordinary men to proclaim His Gospel message. It was not the Pharisees, rabbis, priest or scribes that He chose but ordinary men. If Jesus chose the weak of this world to shame the strong don't be surprised when He comes calling you!

    Twelve Ordinary Men Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 Even before the beginning of time the sovereign plan was for Jesus to be born, live amongst us and die for our sins (1 Peter 1:20).

    God, as the ultimate authority, has the power to show mercy and harden hearts. He has chosen us, and we have the opportunity to choose Him back. His love and mercy are gifts that He freely gives to us.

    You know how in art class, the teacher gives you a lump of clay and you get to shape it into whatever you want? Well, that's kind of like what God does with us. We're like the clay, and He's the potter. He's the one in charge, shaping us into who He wants us to be. Think about it: God, the creator ...read more

    We must learn to depend upon God and not ourselves.

    He’s Coming to Meet You: An Exposition of Genesis 32:1-23 Jacob was a man of many faults. He had connived to take away Esau’s birthright. His very name, Jacob, means “deceiver” or “supplanter.” He and his mother tricked Isaac to give Jacob the Patriarchal blessing. For this, his brother was ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 28, 2022
     | 4,149 views

    Jacob's daughter Dinah is only mentioned in a few places in Scripture. This story shows how one decision can lead to a whole lot of problems.

    Introduction: Remember the old TV Western, “Wagon Train’? Every episode was called “the So-and-So story”, featuring one character who had some kind of impact or another on the wagon train’s journey to California or wherever. Sometimes the “guest” would impact one of the train’s leaders, too—but ...read more

    The German philosopher and scholar, Moses Mendelssohn (1729-86), was born a hunchback. Despite this deformity, which could have soured him on life forever, Mendelssohn was known as a wise and humble man. While on a trip to Hamburg as a young man, Mendelssohn met a rich merchant who had a ...read more

    Too many times we get caught up in situations that put us at a crossroad and we find it difficult to figure out which way is the best way to go. That is because the devil is good at what he does, his job is to make the wrong choice look as right as possi

    Choose Wisely Genesis 25: 29-34 29 One day when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau arrived home exhausted and hungry from a hunt. 30 Esau said to Jacob, "I’m starved! Give me some of that red stew you’ve made." (This was how Esau got his other name, Edom – "Red.") 31 Jacob replied, "All right, but ...read more

    Mighty Is The God Of The One Who Struggles With God. Series

    Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Jun 16, 2024
     | 734 views

    Jacob and Esau had been at odds their whole lives. Jacob was living in fear of the brother he had deceived out of his inheritance. He didn't have a deep relationship with the God of is father and grandfather. That was all to change.

    Mighty is the God of the one who struggles with God. Last week we looked at Jacob and an encounter that he had with God where he wrestled all night, he received a blessing, a new name and an injured hip. He realised that he had been wrestling with God, had survived and as such named the place ...read more

    What we need in the Land today is Revival. We need to take it out of our four walls into a needed land of unbelievers.

    As Election Day 2024 approaches, we face worldly decisions. Joshua confronted Israel with the spiritual decision to serve the Lord. Like Israel, we must choose wisely.

    I doubt there’s anyone here that doesn’t know Tuesday is Election Day. You may have already voted early. We can look forward to Tuesday’s TV or radio news coverage about the voting turnout, and the partial results all day, then into the night when the results are projected and winners announced. ...read more

    Nanny 911 - The Birth Of Jacob Series

    God’s choice of Jacob to be the dominant brother teaches us that salvation is God’s doing from beginning to end.

    We’re all familiar with the kind of TV shows parents don’t want their children to watch, you know, the ones with violence and bad language. But have you ever considered what shows children don’t want their parents to watch? I think Nanny 911 is one of such show. Nanny 911 is a television program on ...read more

    Why God Chooses Man?

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Sep 7, 2017
     | 9,773 views

    No man has the capacity to choose God. And none can explain why God makes choices in the first place. It follows that He must choose those that will show His praise and glory.

    Chosen of God Text: Ephesian 1:1-4 Who can explain Christianity? Any man that claims to have the answer is grossly mistaken. Christianity that can be explained is not real but lacking the substance of truth. Christianity has a depth and height that no man can fathom. Moreover, today’s sermon is ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Thirty-Six. 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 THIRTY-SIX OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that you have a record of Esau's descendants. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 36 Esau departs from the land of Canaan, where Jacob was, because of the multitude of their flocks. Esau's posterity is enumerated. ...read more

     | 1,847 views

    Is there any guide that would help us to choose what is right in God’s eyes? And if we have an idea of God’s choices, should we not consider them the best option for us to have? What are some choices then that are in line with the Sovereign Will of God?
