    It is great to know that Enoch walked with God, but it certainly is great to know that God walked with Enoch

    A Good Start 1This is the family tree of the human race: When God created the human race, he made it godlike, with a nature akin to God. Genesis 5:1 (MSG) 21 When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah. 22 And after he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked ...read more

    Sometimes we fail to keep our word, but God always keeps His Word.

    -Have you ever met anyone who is wishy-washy? -I mean a guy who is all over the place -If you challenge him on a point, he’d totally change his convictions -I had a seminary professor like that one time -His job was to teach us practical application of theology and he was very dogmatic about it ...read more

    Weeping About The Future

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 2, 2015
     | 9,180 views

    Our job as Christians is to tell people about God and to try to lead them to Christ. Sometimes it means steering them to redemption. Do we actually reach out to them with this in mind? Do we seek a radical change in their hearts? Do we warn people?

    The Book of Jeremiah is a book full of dark prophecies of doom and gloom. Jeremiah is a heartbroken prophet with a heartbreaking message. The people of Israel had forgotten God and refused to listen for his voice. They were locked into their old way of doing things. We are the same. Sometimes ...read more

    The question about life is this-What are you living for? What will your answer be.

    Philippians 1:21 -The question about life is this---What are you living for? -The answer to this question defines the meaning behind your entire life. -Some will answer the question, I am living for money, others for fame, but for the true believer it should reflect the proclamation of Paul, I am ...read more

    After Party With The Lord

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Dec 17, 2013
     | 2,982 views

    Just after a great party with the Lord, would come a dirty trick from the devil to spoil the joy and pull you away from Him. Beware!

    After the Party with the Lord! Mark 8:33”But when He had turned around and looked at His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, "Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men." Just after a great party with the Lord, would come a dirty trick from ...read more

    Why do we complain,get angry, and are so impatient, perhaps it is a result of two wolves inside.

    Two wolves inside Numbers 21:4-9 A Cherokee Elder was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to them, "A fight is going on inside me... it is a terrible fight between two wolves.”One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, ...read more

    A King Came From A Cave

     | 5,457 views

    This is just a good introduction to a Christmas sermon that can be taken so many different directions. I hope it blesses and inspires you.

    Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. Our picture of the Christmas story is often glamorized in today’s modern interpretation of Jesus being laid in the manger. The ...read more

    Go In To Possess

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Mar 12, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,074 views

    Sometimes we expect God to spoon-feed us! We want the ‘blessings’ wrapped with colorful, glossy paper and given to us; it does not happen that way, there are times we got to just move forward and possess it.

    Go in to possess! Nehemiah 9:15”You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, And brought them water out of the rock for their thirst, And told them to go in to possess the land Which You had sworn to give them.” Observe the title once more, it is not 'go in and possess' but it ...read more

    The More The Word The Less The Meaning.

     | 2,131 views

    Believers are created to emulate Jesus; we are to be like him in all our ways, that is why we are being called Christians; that is, we are Christ like.

    When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4 Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. 5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part ...read more

    Devices Of The Devil!

     | 4,565 views

    The devil may not come with two horns with his front teeth jutting out to harass you; he may come in the form of a pretty girl or a well groomed boy.

    Evil devices of the devil! Mark 8:33”But when He had turned around and looked at His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, "Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men." Just after a great party with the Lord, would come a dirty trick from the ...read more

    Fruit Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Oct 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,991 views

    In Galatians 5:22–23, Paul shifts to happier thoughts, saying, “But the fruit of the Spirit is …” In what follows, he gives nine characteristics of the Holy Spirit’s work in the life of a born-again believer.

    Unlike the word works (of the flesh), fruit is singular, indicating that the nine characteristics are part of a unified whole and are not separable. In other words, a believer doesn’t have some and not others, though their relative strength may vary. Love, by which Paul means the love of God ...read more

    The church’s cause is the LORD’s own cause.

    A PLEA FOR RELIEF. Psalm 74:19-23. The Psalmist is addressing the LORD when he says, “O deliver not the soul of THY turtledove unto the multitude” (PSALM 74:19a). The soul of a believer is compared to a turtledove. Jesus addresses the Church as ‘MY dove’ in Song of Songs 2:14. Doves were kept ...read more

    Search Me

     | 1,307 views

    What will we find if we truly allow God to search our hearts? Will we like what we see?

    (1, 23-24) God cannot lie, God cannot die, and God cannot save an unwilling soul. In verses 1-7: There are times that we do not let some people become more totally acquainted with us. We are apprehensive they will find something about us that they do not care for. In any case, God has a deep ...read more
