Sermons on god who made us:

Useful To God

Contributed by David Nolte on Feb 17, 2019

A thing is useful when it does what it is made to do. A saw cuts, a hammer pounds, a drill bores holes. We are useful when we do what God made us to do.

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

You can bad-mouth her all you like, but God used this mother to change history in ways that no other mother has ever been used. God’s judgment is that being sexually assaulted does not make a woman a bad mother.

Everything you can say about mothers is true, no matter how good or how bad. But it is surprising when you discover that one who you thought was so bad turns out to be so good. Who would ever dream of holding up Bathsheba as an example of motherhood? Is she not the hussy who seduced David into ...read more

God Uses Who You Are

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jan 28, 2022

We need to get rid of the ill-fitting fashion, or armor, that we’ve tried to squeeze into that’s strangling the life out of us. We need to be who we are in Christ, and utilize our own special equipping. This is what David decided was best.

Have you ever felt as though you don’t quite know where God wants to use you, and you often feel awkward where you’re presently serving? Perhaps it’s because you’ve been pushed into an area of service that doesn’t suit how the Lord has made you and equipped you, and who you really are inside. ...read more
