    Hurry Up And Wait

    Contributed by Richard L. Brown on Dec 7, 2017
     | 5,965 views

    This is a sermon about the second coming of Christ. It asks the question, "if God somehow came to you and told you the world would end tomorrow, how would you change your life?"

    Hurry Up and Wait! 2 Peter 3:8-15 Sunday 12/10/17 The Second Sunday in Advent One of the most frustrating things I know is to travel on an airplane. What I hate about it is that you find yourself in a helpless cycle of Hurry Up and Wait. You know what I mean? You must be at the ...read more

    Holding On To Heaven While Hell Is On Your Back And then came a messenger unto Job, and said, the oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: …… Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, And said, Naked came I out ...read more

    based on 22 ratings
     | 8,407 views

    Based on the New Testament Church and John Wesley’s concept of the Classmeeting, this sermon affirms the necessity of being in a small, accountability group for disciples to grow to be more like Jesus.

    Holding Each Other Accountable in Small Groups --I Thessalonians 5:11 and James 5:16 In October I return to my alma mater Asbury Theological Seminary for our fifth of six sessions in the Spiritual Leaders’ Academy.

    What Holds When You’re Tested

    Contributed by Lewis Martin on Jun 28, 2025
     | 640 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
     | 5,394 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
     | 2,834 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

    Step Up To The Plate Series

    Spiritual warfare is confined to within us. Satan is defeated and powerless unless we chose to give him his power back. This sermon looks at 5 ways we can do that.

    Let me begin today with a reminder of what Sun Tzu wrote in his book “The Art of War.” “It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; ...read more

    Wake-Up Call

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Aug 1, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,288 views

    Every believer has three enemies - the world system, the flesh, and the Devil. If we don't wake-up, heed and act on Biblical warnings, we will not only be spent but also taken down. God's truth is the best protection against Satan's lies.

    Opening illustration: As we moved to our new home in the Middle-East after the government transferred Maureena and me to a previous location in the mountains, we never expected the place to be hiding scorpions which would show up regularly in our bathrooms and poisonous snakes that would appear in ...read more

     | 7,747 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.

    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
