    Up The Down Side

    Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Jul 31, 2014
     | 6,346 views

    It takes tremendous effort to make it to the top. Well, sometimes that’s the way it is for believers.

    At times we may feel as though we’re going up the down side in life. Someone might say, “What are you talking about?” Let me give an example. Have you ever tried to go up and down the escalator? You might take two steps forward and fall back four steps. What should you do ...read more

    What Holds When You’re Tested

    Contributed by Lewis Martin on Jun 28, 2025
     | 601 views

    In Philippians 1:12–26, Paul writes from prison—but his faith isn’t shaken. This message invites us to consider what truly holds when life tests us. Is Jesus our comfort… or our everything? Let’s explore the difference surrender makes.

    Sermon Introduction: “What Holds When You’re Tested” Philippians 1:12–26 Let me tell you about two people. Both go to church. Both say they follow Jesus. But one wants just enough Jesus to feel better— to ease the guilt, to call for help when things go wrong. The other? They’ve given Jesus ...read more

    Peter's Hold Of His Hand Series

    Contributed by Nana Adom on Apr 17, 2020
     | 5,370 views

    May we like Peter, recognise whose hands to hold, who to call on for help, in moments of adversity. Indeed his hands are never too far from reaching us in times of trouble.

    Matthew 14:22- 33 recounts the story of Jesus instructing his disciples to get into a boat heading to the other side. Midway through their journey the disciples encounter a terrible storm. Jesus at this point shows up in the middle of the storm walking on the sea- Peter realising it was master ...read more

    Hold It Together - Genesis 1:6-20 Series

    The problem is we don’t know what to worship just by looking at the scriptures. Some people mistake that to be worship creation itself. Some people worship creation instead of the Creator. They misunderstand the message.

    We’re studying the book of Genesis and we start, of course, with Genesis 1 which is creation. Last week we looked at God created the heavens and the earth. We looked at day one where God created light. One of the things we said is here’s what happens when you start to look at creation. There is a ...read more

    This sermon highlights how one can make the best of a bad situation.

    Hold On, I’m Not Done Yet! Scripture: Job 1: 6-12 6Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD and Satan also came among them. 7And the LORD said to Satan, “From where do you come?” So Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, ...read more

    Holding On . . . But Letting Go – Be Steadfast In Hope And Waiting Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 2,810 views

    We have a precious faith and we must hold on to it firmly. Commitment grasps that faith. Holding on to God's promises is essential. We look at the often misapplied verses of Hebrews 6 and who it was who actually let go. They are NOT Christians.

    Message - Holding On But Letting Go Red Cross Hall 19 July 2014 HOLDING ON . . . BUT LETTING GO – BE STEADFAST IN HOPE AND WAITING The subject here may seem like an apparent contradiction (an oxymoron); something we hold on to but let go of it. Well, that gets us nowhere, unless there is a ...read more

    Holding On To Our Past - Resentments, Regrets And Remorse

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Apr 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,670 views

    "Holding on to our Past" is something that can inhibit not only our relationships, our outlook on life, but also our sense of identity and spiritual growth in Jesus.

    None of us likes to take responsibility. We can always find someone else to blame our problems.

    What to do when we are waiting on the Lord.

    You may have heard the expression “Hurry up and wait,” if you served in the military you certainly have heard it and seen it. Thirteen years in the U.S. Navy I have seen it first hand. Wake you up at the crack of dawn just to sit and wait for an hour or more to get your orders for the ...read more

    Stir Up The Gift

     | 6,659 views

    What God is looking for is some good old Holy Ghost agitators, someone that is going to help the Spirit of God to move in our life, the life of the church, and the life of God’s people.

    I want to say thank’s be to God, that there is still near the sheep a house of mercy, and grace and a pool that supplies every need, like Grace: which keeping from me what I don’t deserve and Mercy which allows me to get what I do deserve. ??As we look at this passage, we see that there was a ...read more

    God orchestrates the affairs of life—both the good and the bad—to bring us to the place where our faith will be in him alone.

    Hold Lightly What You Value Greatly Luke 12:16-21 The land of a rich man produced plentifully and he thought to himself, "What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?" And he said, "I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and ...read more

    Most couples when they walk down the isle think that it’s going to be Happily ever after because that’s what’s portrayed for us on the screen. But it can be a few days, months or even year, you begin to realize that marriage isn’t all happily evert after

    “Hold on, There’s Hope!” 1 Cor. 13:1-7 Our Scripture today is Paul’s letter to the church at Corinth which was experiencing a lot of turmoil and infighting as a new body of Christ. Paul’s answer was simply one word: love. This was a prescription of how the body of ...read more

    At a point during the cause of our lives we are faced with situations that are overwhelming. We find ourselves in a place where it seems we are stagnated, we are not making progress. We feel that we need help and assistance which is not forthcoming.

    AUTHOR: BOLA FOLAKEMI PRAISE JOHN 5: 1-11 “Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled ...read more
