    Hands Up!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022
     | 4,119 views

    We hear the words “Hands Up” used in two ways.

    1. IT IS USED IN A NEGATIVE WAY For example, when a criminal walks into a bank and says “Hands up,” everyone within the range of his voice knows what he means. The reason the criminal wants everyone to put their “Hands up” is because this signifies that everyone within the sound of his voice has ...read more

    The hands of the righteous are lifted to God on behalf of the ungodly.

    Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand. So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and ...read more

    The church needs men and women like Aaron and Hur, people willing to lift up and hold the arms of those that have grown weary. People that are willing to help at all times all of those that may find themselves in a weakened to exhausted state.

    I do not know how may of you are paying attention to what is happening around us, but I can confidently say that the ministry is in grave trouble. Now, let me stop here for a moment to clear something up. When I say that the ministry is in trouble, I am not referring to our ministry in ...read more

    As Christians we don't have to live in fear, of not knowing what's up ahead around the corner, or what the future might bring. As long as God knows, isn't that enough? It's time we left our hands up...and our worries down!

    Hands up...Worries down! Philippians 4:4-7 MSG 4-5 Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revelin him! Make it as clear as you can to all you meet that you’re on their side, working with them and not against them. Help them see that the Master is about to arrive. He could show up any ...read more

    Everyone loves a good pursuit. Like in an old western - God pursues us. It’s about time we surrendered!

    7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. 9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, 10 even there your hand will guide me, your right hand ...read more

    This sermon emphasizes the need to support your leader in their time of adversity.

    In the heat of battles, our souls will often become faint. Bouts of depression will come to most of us. The strong are not always vigorous. The wise are not alway ready. The brave are not always courageous. The joyous are not always happy. Great travail is created for all men. It is clear that the ...read more

    When you encounter God do not expect to walk away the same, pray to walk with a limp as Jacob did and live in the promise and purpose God has for your life

    What is it with God? It never ceases to amaze me the type of people God uses for great purpose I would have expected the most gifted, handsome, athletic, warrior, intellectual and generally those that reflected his perfection to project that “Look at me I’m right with God” persona to make us all ...read more

    A Hand Up...not A Hand Out! (Acts 3:1-10)

    Contributed by David Darst on May 17, 2021
     | 5,147 views

    I have come to this conclusion: People do not need a “hand out” . What they really need is a “hand up” So many people would be content to be carried around in their affliction rather than walk on their own two feet. The Worst part is many Christian’s are content to keep carrying them.

    I. The Routine (1) Peter and John were still in the two by two mode -- they were going about their religious routine on their way to the temple to pray. “Ninth hour” approximately (3PM) in the afternoon. Some interesting observations: It wasn’t the time of the afternoon sacrifice; but rather the ...read more

    The children wanted "more." Joshua saw right past their complaint. There is a difference between getting a hand out and a hand up!

    Introduction: The children from the tribe of Ephraim had a complaint. They brought their concern to Joshua. They said, "We need more room. Our inheritance is not enough. We are a great people (numerically) and need a larger portion than the other tribes of Israel!" Joshua saw right past their ...read more
