The parents were anxious, the Bible said, and so they go and they find him. And here's what Jesus said. He said to them, “Why are you looking for me? Don't ...read more

    Knowing God’s will and having fellowship with God require spiritual understanding. Oh Lord, give me understanding according to your word, and I shall live. Your understanding is unsearchable.

    THE SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING "For the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God" (1 Corinthians 2:10-11). The feelings of ...read more

    Expanding Your Prayer Life Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 4, 2021
     | 7,396 views

    Sermon expounds exhortation in Eph. 6:18 to "pray with ALL KINDS of prayer." A key to expanding our prayer capacity is developing in a variety of modes of prayer. Many struggle with prayer because their prayer life is one-dimensional (primarily petition).

    Our text today is found in Ephesians 6. A couple of weeks ago we ministered on the armor of God presented in verses 10-17.i Paul begins by saying, “Finally, my brethren, [much of what Paul has said previously in this epistle is leading up to this exhortation.] be strong in the Lord and in the power ...read more

    Peacemakers Series

     | 4,728 views

    "Blessed are the peacemakers." Our concept of peacemaking must be based on scriptural revelation. Biblical peacemaking is not appeasement. We know that from God's example of making peace. What is biblical peacemaking and how is it rewarded?

    Intro We come today to the 7th Beatitude found in Matthew 5:9: “Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.”i We are approaching the pinnacle of this list of attributes that bring blessing on a person’s life. Everybody wants to be blessed. But not everybody is willing to take ...read more
