     | 3,166 views

    This passage gives us the dynamic example of Jesus washing feet. How can Jesus lay aside the traditional power structures to be able to live like that? The answer is in this passage.

    PETER'S EMPHATIC "NO": Peter was deeply offended by Christ’s offer because he was still thinking of a traditional power structure. - John 13:6-10a. - The disciples were still expecting the inaugural of a traditional kingdom. - Rome was going to be overthrown, the Jewish nation was ...read more

     | 2,525 views

    I realize that we are already past the Christmas season, but the action of the wise men and their desire to worship our Lord Jesus should be an example to us as we begin this new year.

    Alba 1-8-2023 THE WORSHIP OF THE WISEMEN Matthew 2:1-12 Three small boys were in a Christmas play. They were the three wise men, and they had to give their gifts to Jesus.

    Phobeo!

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Dec 16, 2022

    Using Joseph as an example and the word for "fear" in Greek (Phobeo) used by the Angel, we too can overcome the fears that keep us from the pursuit of holiness (sanctification).

    PHOBIA! AS DEFINED, IT MEANS “AN EXTREME OR IRRATIONAL FEAR OF OR AVERSION TO SOMETHING.” FEAR CAN BE GOOD! FEAR HELPS PROTECT US. IT MAKES US ALERT TO DANGER AND PREPARES US TO DEAL WITH IT. FEAR CAN BE LIKE A WARNING, A SIGNAL THAT CAUTIONS US TO BE WATCHFUL AND CAREFUL. HOWEVER, FEAR CAN ALSO ...read more

    "go And Sin No More" Series

    Contributed by Maurice Armstrong on Feb 27, 2025

     | 878 views

    Is it possible to "Go and sin no more"? His example is that we "Follow In His Steps: Who did no sin...." (1Peter 2:21-22)

    “Go and Sin No More” “Go and Sin No More” What did Jesus mean when He said, “Go and sin no more”? (John 5:14, 8:11). I'm persuaded, “He said what He meant, and He meant exactly what He said.” There's no need to reason, to rationalize or to debate. Likewise, what did Jesus mean when He ...read more

    The miracle of the healing of the lame man in John 5:1-17 was a demonstration not only of the power of the Lord Jesus but was also an example of the grace of God that too many people take for granted.

    The Scriptures contain numerous accounts of the healing power of God. He has the power, grace, and mercy that is HIs Holy character. He has the authority to grant the restoration of health to anyone He sovereignly chooses. Scripture tells of health being restored to people through intercession ...read more

    Message examines "workings of miracles" as a gift of the Holy Spirit listed in 1 Corinthians 12:10. Examples of this gift in operation are examined for insight into what it is and how it works.

    Intro Have you ever tried to work a miracle, and it did not work? When I first started operating in the supernatural, I was alone at a lake for a time of prayer.

    Jesus' victory over temptation gives us hope and shows us that we can overcome too. His humility, obedience, and reliance on God's Word are examples for us to follow.

    Jesus went to John the Baptist to be baptized. John was like, "Wait, you should be baptizing me!" But Jesus insisted. He was showing us how to be humble and obedient. Humility is super important, especially for leaders. Jesus was humble even before His baptism. He gave up everything, even His life, ...read more
