     | 197 views

    Throughout scripture there have been mass killings of the young. Whenever this occured God rose up a leader in that generation. We are living in a time where abortion is widely accepted. Who will be the leader who will rise up.

    You have been saved to lead! Moses Exodus 1:15-16 The king of Egypt had a talk with the two Hebrew midwives. He said, "When you deliver the Hebrew women, look at the gender of the baby. If it’s a boy, kill him” Jesus Matt 2:16 Herod, when he realized that the wiseman had tricked him, flew into ...read more

    How do leaders think, speak, dream, and view their life. You should be the best Leader that God intended You to Be. "There is a giant asleep within everyone. When that giant awakens, miracles happen."

    Let Your Light Shine. Pastor Amat Fernandez Matthew 5:14-16 14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your ...read more

    The Divisive And The Godly Minister

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 13, 2012
     | 6,423 views

    This is the very reason that this 3rd letter of John was written. There was a divisive leader in the church who was causing serious problems. In writing, John covers the traits of the divisive leader and he tells us how to handle him.

    A divisive leader is one of the most serious problems to ever confront a church. When a church has within its ranks a divisive leader, the very life and ministry of the church are threatened. A divisive leader always carries a church through one of its most traumatic experiences. He usually ...read more

    When Jesus was challenged to name His authority to teach, he exposed His interlocutors as incapable of assessing His answer even were He to deign give it.

    “When [Jesus] entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, ‘By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?’ Jesus answered them, ‘I also will ask you one question, and if you tell me the answer, then ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,643 views

    Contemporary western culture is facing a date with destiny. When God's judgement is unleashed, and it shall surely come, all of us will lament our failure to honour Him or to serve Him.

    “How lonely sits the city that was full of people! How like a widow has she become, she who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces has become a slave.” [1] “Lamentations! You’re actually going to preach a series of messages from that dark, foreboding book? ...read more

     | 19,948 views

    I usually feel very privileged and honoured when people share their secrets with me. I mean "their own" secrets, not those of others (gossip)! This is because it's an indication or proof of trust.

    Secret Place - Holy Ghost Psalms 91:1 - He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,763 views

    You must not be called ’Teacher,’ because you are all equal and have only one Teacher. And you must not call anyone here on earth ’Father,’ because you have only the one Father in heaven. Nor should you be called ’Leader,’ because your one and only leader

    “Call no man ‘Father’” says Jesus. That’s part of our reading today from Matthew 23. Jesus says, “call no man ‘Father’”. What’s that doing here? And I don’t just mean what’s it doing here as this week’s reading. I mean, what’s it doing in the Bible? Since the (not so recent) publication of “The ...read more

    Celebrating God Everyday

    Contributed by Lola Olanrewaju on Jan 27, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,806 views

    Celebrating God should not be a give and take practice with God, but it should be done unconditionally. When Paul and Silas praised God in prison, they have no clue what was about to happen in their life, but God set them free miraculously (Acts 16:25-34).

    It is a great joy for people to celebrate special occasions in their life. People celebrates birthday, wedding, graduation, new job, promotion, new baby, house warming, new appointment, many more. Do you know that God himself delights in celebration. In the book of exodus 12:14 God gave instruction ...read more

    Strength Through Humility

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 7, 2014
     | 6,642 views

    The world thinks humility is pious weakness, whereas the bible says it is strength through submission, in fact true humility results in power, and honour and glory and majesty and strength. Who would not want that?

    Genesis 24:34-38, 42-49, 58-67 Psalm 45: 11-18 Romans 7:15-25a Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30 “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength, and our redeemer. Amen. (Ps. ...read more

     | 9,010 views

    Stephen's Acts 7 defense before the Jewish leaders is a masterful theological treatise on the presence of God. But it was a message with ominous implications to these power-hungry leaders. Stephen's message has applications to us today 2000 years later.

    Where Does God Live? Series: Acts Chuck Sligh May 3, 2015 TEXT: Turn to Acts 7 INTRODUCTION Have you ever heard a church referred to as “God’s house?” I’ve often used this term myself, speaking of the importance of being faithful to “God’s house” by ...read more

    Real Leadership Series

     | 9,719 views

    If you want to be a real leader that inspires people to real greatness, define the vision, delegate the work; but most important, deny yourself just like Jesus did. That’s because real leaders are real servants.

    Several years ago, a 19-year-old man, desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. Some say the man was drunk, others that he was disturbed. Either way, only a few of the passengers were concerned, and everyone stayed calm. That’s because ...read more
