    How Do I Make Room For The Tide?

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Mar 12, 2022
     | 2,623 views

    The idea for the points sermon came from a picture of a sermon slide I saw on Facebook shared by a fellow preacher. It was about how giving God our firsts leads to success. If you give God your best, He will pour His Best into your life!

    TITLE: How Do I Make Room For The Tide? I. OPENING ILLUSTRATION: "Years ago, a wealthy businessman from London chartered a bus to carry a busload of urban children to the coast. There, the children spent a wonderful day at the ocean. Many of the children had never left the city. Most had ...read more

    I am going home to be with the Lord. Heaven is all about the Lord Jesus and to be absent from the body will be then in His presence. Are you looking forward to meeting your Saviour or do you love the earth better? Jesus waits to welcome you. Those ideas are developed.

    I AM GOING HOME TO BE WITH THE LORD – WITH HIM FOREVER Currently this is just a devotion I presented to a group site. It will be developed into a full sermon in the future. Written mainly on Sunday morning at 3 AM when I woke with the ideas (given by God of course). 12 June 2022. EYES THAT ...read more

    There are a multitude of ideas about who Jesus is outside of those who are true disciples of Jesus Christ. But, there is only one True Jesus and Belief and Faith in Him is essential for eternal life. Some may make Jesus the way they WANT Him to be but that will only lead to destruction.

    Advent 1 - Who Do YOU Say Jesus Is? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my ...read more

    Is it possible today that a person may attain a point in life where they do not sin? John tells us that while this idea is false, the Christian has no need to worry about his eternal salvation. The reason we need not worry is that God’s love is A Love W

    part 2 of series Facing Your Giants, the credit for the idea comes from Max Lucado’s book by the same title. This deals with how God uses those whom we see as unusable. David was the runt of the litter, God used him for great things.

    Rejection: 1972 was a bittersweet year for me. I graduated from High School (YAY), I had a good part in the school musical (YAY). I remember these times with great fondness, there were also the bad times. I had tried out for a semi-pro theatre group, I thought I had a great audition and really ...read more

    What drove the man who wore rags rather than “Botany 500” was being true to God’s calling on his life – making certain his generation understood genuine faith and power. There have always been a lot of mistaken ideas about that.

    John said to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruits worthy of repentance. Do not begin to say to yourselves, ’We have Abraham as our ancestor’; for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up ...read more

    If I could ask you what you believe about salvation, you may not have a clear answer. But in Romans 10, we have the clearest explanation of what salvation is. A discussion about the two keystone ideas about salvation, the grace of God and our faith.

    King Ahaziah learns the hard way that seeking help from any other god than the Living God is not a good idea. We must put our trust in the Lord alone, and we must never seek help from occult sources or any other source.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a frog who went to see a fortune-teller to learn about his future. 1.

    This is 2 of 2 sermons that share some common elements. This one addresses the idea that many Christian churches add theology rather than focusing on what scripture teaches us. In short, we need to focus more on being one Christian church rather than ge

    Introduction Baptism has become a part of every believer’s life. At some point, we make the plunge, we’re cleansed from our sins, and take on the name as a Christian. But, Christians, as a whole, cannot agree on the proper way to baptize and the effect that bestows on us. Tonight, I’d like you ...read more
