    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jul 9, 2019
     | 9,996 views

    Three men and three different excuses as to why they couldn't follow Jesus. We can learn from their mistakes to live out our calling with passion and to keep from letting the world distract us from this important mission.

    Character Study Of Reuben Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 21, 2025
     | 125 views

    Reuben had a great destiny as the firstborn of Jacob, but his moral failure and instability led to his downfall. His life teaches us that position alone does not determine greatness—it is character, self-control, and responsibility that shape our destiny.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF REUBEN – FIRSTBORN OF JACOB By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 29:32 – “And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his name Reuben: for she said, Surely the Lord hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.” Supporting Texts: Genesis ...read more

    Character Study Of Gideon Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 22, 2025
     | 201 views

    Gideon’s journey from fear to faith demonstrates how God works through weakness. He was reluctant at first, but through God’s power, he became a great leader. His story challenges us to trust God completely, even when we feel inadequate.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF GIDEON – JUDGE WHO DEFEATED THE MIDIANITES By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text:. Judges 6:14 "And the Lord looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?" – Supporting Texts: Judges ...read more

    Fear Of Failure Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 11, 2025
     | 48 views

    As believers, we must recognise that failure is not final, and it is certainly not fatal when God is involved. We are called to live by faith and not by fear.

    FEAR OF FAILURE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” Supporting Texts: Joshua 1:9, Isaiah 41:10, Romans 8:15, Philippians 4:13, Matthew 25:24-30 INTRODUCTION: The fear of failure is a ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 14, 2025
     | 35 views

    Shyness and timidity may seem like harmless traits, but they can hinder the believer’s full expression of God’s purpose.

    OVERCOMING SHYNESS AND TIMIDITY By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 15 ratings
     | 5,536 views

    Have you ever wondered why some people are afraid to progress when conditions appear difficult? Most of us are hesitant to try something new unless we are given guarantees

    Illustration:When Pablo Casals reached 95, a young reported threw him a question: "Mr. Casals, you are 95 and the greatest cellist that ever lived. Why do you still practice six hours a day?" And Mr. Casals answered, "Because I think I’m making progress." Your goal is to make progress every day of ...read more

    You Were Made For A Mission Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 13, 2003
    based on 50 ratings
     | 9,840 views

    One in a series on Rick Warren’s Purpose-Driven Life book. Our mission is to drive with others toward a destination. But between invitation and destination there is hesitation, born of diversion, dissension, and dissipation.

    People who are on a mission move; people who are on a mission let nothing stop them. They are not distracted by side issues, they focus all their energies on getting their mission accomplished. People who are on a mission do whatever it takes to get to their goal. But people who are not on a ...read more

    7 Keys To Revival

    Contributed by Mark Price on May 12, 2006
    based on 21 ratings
     | 8,808 views

    We find a defined prescription for real revival in 2 Chronicles 7:14. The problem is that, like with many precribed orders from our physician, we hesitate to take the medicine.

    Over and over, the Lord spoke to Israel through Jeremiah the prophet saying, "Return to Me." Practically to the very end, He called unto them to return and repent. He admonished them as a loving and faithful Husband would his unfaithful wife. As a Shepherd, He called to His wayward sheep. ...read more

    Taking God At His Word

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 2, 2023
     | 1,728 views

    There is only one thing we can believe without hesitation - God's Word. This message is about how the testimony of my brother at his burial reminded everyone of this truth.

    In John 17:16, Jesus says of His disciples "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.” It reminded me of a song we sang years ago in church. ¶ This world is not my home. I'm just passing through. My treasures are laid up, somewhere beyond the blue. The angels beckon ...read more

    Boldness At The Throne

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 7, 2016
     | 14,501 views

    Many Christians are hesitant or feel unworthy to come to God. The Bible exhorts us to "come boldly to the throne of grace." Here are the reasons we should be bold and how we should approach God's throne.

    BOLDNESS AT THE THRONE Heb. 4:14-16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: TYPES OF PRAYERS 1. The "Call 9-1-1 Prayer." You make this call when you have an emergency. You don't want to trouble God normally. God is your divine spare tire with your life goes flat. 2. The "Jiminy Cricket" prayer. "When you wish ...read more

    Dangerous Discipleship

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 26, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,347 views

    To be a follower of Christ is almost certain to be costly. Many turn from following Christ because they fear what it may cost. They are willing to be religious, but hesitate to embrace discipleship. We are called to embrace dangerous discipleship.

    “When the large crowd of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came, not only on account of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So, the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well, because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and ...read more

     | 2,957 views

    I will not hesitate to declare with the turn of 2016: "These are the beginning of the days of a great harvest!" It is time for us to grab it and run. God still speaks today! Are you listening? Are you willing to take action for 2016.

    Are you listening? God still speaks today! Are you listening? What are you hearing? Deuteronomy 8:3 states, "He humbled you and let you suffer hunger, and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man does not live by bread alone; but ...read more

    Don’t Flinch

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 12, 2024
     | 1,439 views

    Christians are not supposed to "flinch" or hesitate to speak God's truth, or from declaring ALL the gospel of God, or flinch in their allegiance to Jesus. Let's surrender ALL today!

    DON’T FLINCH Acts 20:27 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A pastor was walking down the street when he saw 12 young boys gathered around a dog. Worried that the boys might hurt the dog, he went over and asked, “What are you doing with that dog?” 2. One of the boys replied, “It’s a stray dog; we all ...read more

     | 6,617 views

    Have you ever struggled to go out of your way to help people who are considered to be suspicious fellows? Imagine the hesitancy of Ananias when the Lord told him to render assistance to the murdering Saul of Tarsus.
