    Our Abba Daddy Loves Us Series

    Contributed by Ed Taylor on Dec 23, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,044 views

    Go wants us to know without any doubts that we are His children and that He loves us.

    1. REMEMBER the contrast in this wonderful GOSPEL OF GRACE is between the LAW & FAITH. • How do I relate to God? By faith or fear? RULES, REGULATIONS… RELIGION & RITUALS. • Don’t touch this. Don’t wear that. Don’t, Can’t, Shouldn’t! • It’s the spirit of bondage again to fear. • Think about ...read more

    Is God bending, shaping, or polishing me right now? What’s my attitude: Am I thanking and praising God, or am I complaining about the process? Trials are intended not to provoke us but to prove us. See the present from the perspective of the future. Look

    Opening illustration: The Steinway piano has been preferred by keyboard masters such as Rachmaninoff, Horowitz, Cliburn, and Liszt—and for good reason. It is a skillfully crafted instrument that produces phenomenal sound. Steinway pianos are built today the same way they were 140 years ago when ...read more

    Pentecost 9 (C) - Christ lives in us which is both a divine mystery and also our glorious hope.

    CHRIST LIVES IN US (Outline) August 2, 2009 -- PENTECOST 9 -- Colossians 1:21-28 INTRO: Everyone loves a mystery. The more that we hear, read, and study God’s word the more we begin to understand the mystery of Scripture revealed. Scripture holds many mysteries that are not always ...read more

    Satan Uses Pain

    Contributed by Davon Huss on May 20, 2022
     | 1,704 views

    Start with Job and then talk about how Satan wants to use pain from John 11 with the account of the raising of Lazarus (Adapted from a book by Joe Beam called "Seeing the Unseen")

    HoHum: When speaking about Job, one time I said, “Satan can do nothing without God’s permission.” This opened up a whole can of worms. If God is good and all powerful, then how do we explain the existence of pain, suffering, and evil in our world? There are no easy answers. WBTU: Take for ...read more

    My basketball coaches would ask our high school team, “Who wants it?” Again, I want you to personally experience a revival. Here is a fork in the road kind of question: Do you want to experience an awakening?

    I want you to personally experience a revival. I want our church family to experience a spiritual awakening. And most importantly, God Himself wants you to experience Him in all His fulness. A revival is a time when God hits the fast-forward button for you. It’s a time when you experience a ...read more

    The Prayer Of Jesus Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 20,730 views

    The Our Father in Matthew 6 is typically referred to as the Lord's Prayer. But really, John 17 is what should be called the Lord's Prayer because it literally is the prayer of Jesus. Jesus' longest recorded prayer has much to say and there's much to gain.

    THE PRAYER OF JESUS John 17:1-26 INTRODUCTION: The Our Father of Matthew 6:9-13 is typically referred to as the Lord's Prayer. But really, it is the disciple's prayer given to them by the Lord. Here, in John 17 is what should be called the Lord's Prayer because it literally is the prayer of Jesus. ...read more

    Philip, just an ordinary guy - called to ministry and in turn brings along a friend, Nathanael. This reading shows how Jesus uses ordinary people, doing ordinary things.

    Mid-Week Message/Devotion January 10, 2018 Reading: John 1:43-51 Did Anything Good Come Out of Nazareth?

    What's Love Got To Do With It? Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 38,030 views

    Tina Turner asked this question but she downplayed the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. But for those who understand the true essence of love it means much more. What’s love got to do with it?

    WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT? Tina Turner asked this question but for a different reason than what I’ll be focusing on today. In fact, in her song, she downplays the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. She ...read more

    Calling All Nobodies

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 2,717 views

    The idolatrous priest Amaziah tries to intimidate the prophet Amos. He did not appreciate Amos’ message against the king. But Amos wan't trying to be popular--God had called him out of an ordinary life of shepherding and gathering fruit. In other words, Amos was a nobody.

    This passage teaches us a valuable lesson: God calls and uses nobodies, those who are shunned by the world or overlooked. Amos, Moses, and David were just shepherds. Joseph was just a boy with a dream. Ruth was an outcast, an outsider. Esther was just a regular Jewish girl. These people were ...read more

    Nothing compares to God. But as strange as it may seem, God’s Win-Loss record seems not clean. Because there’s a man by the name of Jacob who claimed to have seen God face to face, was in a wrestling match with God, and even defeated God.

    Nothing compares to God. He is Omnipresent, (always everywhere). Omniscient (all knowing). Omnipotent (all powerful). He is transcendent (he is beyond and above us and our understanding of this world) But as strange as it may seem, God’s Win-Loss record seems not clean. Because there’s a ...read more

    No matter how far we run or how many times we fall, God’s steadfast love pursues us, rescues us, helps us, anchors us, and never lets us go—and our changed lives become the greatest sermon we can ever preach.
