    Joseph

     | 7,103 views

    Joseph (son of Jacob) was truly a faithful man who convictingly went to his death awaiting the fulfillment of God’s promise of Canaan. It is his trust in God’s promise and His providential care that makes him a great example for our faith.

    Joseph Theme: A man of great faith, especially at his death. INTRODUCTION A. Joseph (in Genesis) is one of the better if not most well known of Bible characters. 1. Children learn about Joseph and his “coat of many colors.” 2. Stories are told of his sold into slavery, placed in prison, or his ...read more

    Samson was a man of many flaws as the Bible reveals, but he undoubtedly was a great man of faith who accomplished exactly what God wanted through him. What of us?

    Samson A man of flaws, yet in great faith overcame his enemies and fulfilled God’s will. INTRODUCTION A. It is natural and often asked: What is God’s plan for my life? 1. We say this knowing the overall answer: to do His will. 2. Yet, throughout our lifelong service to Him in the Lord we take ...read more

    Inherited Persecution

    Persecution is inevitable. In fact, trying to avoid it will not prevent it. Stand firm in the faith!

    THE PERSECUTION OF THE CHURCH BEGAN BEFORE IT WAS EVEN ESTABLISHED. IT STARTED WHEN SATAN STIRRED UP THE FEAR, GREED, AND RAGE IN THE HEART OF A MAN NAMED HEROD AND WIELDED HIM LIKE A SWORD TO PIERCE THE HEART OF JESUS CHRIST. IF SATAN COULD DESTROY THIS MESSIAH AS SOON AS HE ARRIVED, SATAN ...read more

    By Faith, Abraham

    I think we can look at Abraham’s story and see three things about his obedience that really spoke to his faith. These are three things upon which I think you and I can also measure our own faith.

    In the eleventh chapter of the New Testament book of Hebrews there is one of the most famous lists in history. It is a list of Bible heroes. Big names like Noah and Moses, Samson and David. And there were lesser known figures like Enoch and Rahab, Barak and Jephthah. What was it that held all ...read more

    Barak was a man of faith. He didn’t drop the ball. His example inspires us to follow the Lord wholeheartedly.

    Hebrews 11:32 Faith’s Hall of Fame: Barak Introduction “He dropped the ball!” I’m sure you’ve heard that expression before. We use it to describe someone who has failed to follow through on an assignment or to reach a certain goal. Some people trace the origin of that phrase to the 4th game ...read more

    This message looks at how God sometimes uses suffering and always takes longer than we want to accomplish his goals for us!

    In Hebrews 11 we have this great list of people who lived by faith. They were just normal people, but because they trusted God with everything they had they became extraordinary! It wasn’t that they were special...it was that their faith was special. What I love about looking at their stories is ...read more
