    Don’t Slip Off The Path

    Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Jan 14, 2024
     | 1,644 views

    We need to see that we are in the last moments of these last day's but our attention needs to be more of what is going on in our heart rather than what is going on around us.

    Matthew 7:21-23 (KJV) Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in ...read more

    Gratitude opens our hearts to God’s presence, transforming ordinary moments and burdens into opportunities for praise, hope, and deeper relationship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with full hearts; some with heavy ones. Either way, here you are, and here God is—nearer than the breath you just took. Picture an old, sturdy gate swinging open. Hear the hinges creak a welcome. On the other side? Not a cold courtyard, but the warm smile of a Father who ...read more

    Madmen And Falling Towers

    Contributed by Paul Wallace on Sep 13, 2001
    based on 115 ratings
     | 6,288 views

    When tragedy strikes where should we look? What would Jesus say to our hearts if we have ears to hear? Where would He have us focus our attention?

    Madmen and Falling Towers 9-16-01 As I listened to all the comments and opinions about the horrible day this week in which the World Trade Towers fell I was disturbed. I was in shock at the sight and angry with the perpetrators but my spirit was troubled about something else. We will not forget ...read more

    Commandment #2 Thou Shalt Cut The Apron Strings

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Mar 10, 2007
    based on 9 ratings
     | 11,584 views

    For a marriage to become successful “both” have to become emotionally detached from their family. (This doesn’t mean anyone is cut off, but as a couple your number 1 attention has to be your spouse!)

    Commandment #2 Thou Shalt Cut the Apron Strings Text: Genesis 2: 21-25 21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He ...read more

    First Things First

    based on 17 ratings
     | 6,945 views

    Some form of the word “Seek” is used in the Bible over 150 times, therefore when we encounter a verse that clearly states we are to “seek first” something, that should clearly get our attention.

    First Things First Introduction Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. The bible in different ways tells us what we need to seek for and what we should not seek. Examples – Leviticus 19:31 “‘Do not turn to mediums or seek ...read more

    The Magi's Guide To Following A Star

    Contributed by Chris Tiller on Nov 19, 2005
    based on 92 ratings
     | 19,513 views

    God just might give you a star to capture your attention and to guide you. And if you follow that star, everything just might change. An intimate encounter with Jesus has a way of doing that to people.

    I love the story of the magi. There was a time when the magi lived far away from Jesus. They were given a special star to capture their attention and to guide them. They followed the star, and it changed everything. An intimate encounter with Jesus has a way of doing that to people. I love the ...read more

    based on 47 ratings
     | 34,544 views

    God is looking for a people who will build an altar of worship. It is that concept that some captured my attention. In particular the place that the altar plays in Old Testament worship, and it’s accompanying challenge to you and I.

    Egypt is synonymous of our world and it’s accompanying bondage. God’s desire for Israel was that they would be free from Egypt to worship him without constrain, that’s the story of Exodus. The first 2 commandments – EXODUS 20:1-6 Worship is that central affirmation of God in our lives, above ...read more

    How Jesus Taught That Faith In God Is Greater Than Any Problem

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Sep 17, 2006
    based on 35 ratings
     | 6,495 views

    Jesus knew that faith would help people focus their attention on God’s power rather than their limited resources. Without an active means of expressing our faith, we are unable to grow in faith.

    How Jesus Taught that Faith in God is Greater Than Any Problem Matthew 17:20-17:21 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV) Everyone struggles with problems that seem overwhelming and tend to stress us out. Jesus once told His disciples, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to ...read more

    A short message at a Child development Centre and Remand Home, short because the message is to be translated to Sinhala (one of the local languages) and because in many cases those hearing the message have short attention spans.

    Being God’s Adopted Children Morning my name is Andrew. You may have seen me around here looking at work that has been done when the men have been in painting or fixing the bathrooms.
