    David’s life is an open book before God. He hides nothing. We sometimes try to hide things from God. We need to try to live our lives as an "open book" before God.

    Hide And Seek

     | 6,582 views

    We, who were ceated for the express purpose of having fellowship with God, have a tendency to work incredibly hard at abandoning Him.

    HIDE AND SEEK Matthew 10:26-27 What does it mean to "abandon," "forsake," or "leave alone" the omnipresent God, God who is everywhere. How is that possible? It is ONLY possible if God allows us to leave, allows us to turn our back upon God Himself. Yes, it is much like the parent playing "Hide and ...read more

    Law Enforcement: To Protect And To Serve

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 14, 2016
     | 14,019 views

    There is a wind of confrontation blowing between law enforcement and the public in our society. There are some bad police officers, but a majority of them are good and out to protect us. Today, we invite them to worship with us and to pray for them.

    TO SERVE AND TO PROTECT Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring ...read more

    Overcoming Through Suffering In Ministry

     | 2,500 views

    I’d like to begin with the example of Richard Wurmbrand. His is a famous struggle against true evil. He was born in Armenia in 1909. He was a minister in Romania during the spread of communism across the globe.

    We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. -2 Corinthians 4:8-10 ESV I’d like to ...read more

    "Nicodemus Wears A White Hat”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 11, 2021
     | 3,026 views

    Good cowboys wear white hats. Nicodemus was depending on his "goodness", keeping Jewish rules and his connection to Abraham. Our new American theology is not different....we want to depend on our own goodness. Jesus is not "one" way, but the only way.

    In Jesus Holy Name Lent IV March 14, 2021 Text: John 3:17,18a “Nicodemus Wears a White Hat” Who wears white hats? In the old silent movie days you always knew who the good cowboys were. They wore white hats. The bad cowboys wore back hats. That way you always knew who the ...read more

    Living A Fantasy

     | 6,940 views

    God had sent one prophet after another to warn Israel of impending judgment. Rather then heeding the many warnings, they continued to live in a fantasy world, void of reality. Sadly many today continue this path, refusing to admit their great need.

    Living a Fantasy Hosea 6:4, 7:8ff As you study the book of Hosea, God’s love for His people is easily discovered. While they had turned their backs on him, seeking the gods of this world and the pleasures of the flesh, God continued to pursue them by His grace. In the chapters between our last ...read more

     | 3,135 views

    Many of the most attractive offers are just too good to be true.

    We are bombarded by advertisements, commercials and infomercials. They come by way of mail, newspapers, text messages, email, radio and television. We’ve all heard some pretty fantastic claims made for everything from capsules for memory enhancement, to weight loss drinks, to antiwrinkle cream. ...read more

    Christians must guard against living in conformity to the world.

    As Ron Luce of Acquire the Fire has said, “We constantly see the effects of a generation that has been led by ungodly influences, peer pressure, and by people with no solid foundation in God. As a result, we have a generation of young people, young adults, and young at heart who are hurt, who are ...read more
