    A Thorn In The Flesh

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 17, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,643 views

    We know that God is able to heal, but sometimes we aren’t healed. This message looks at one possible reason why, as we examine an illness that the apostle Paul wrestled with for most of his Christian life - his "thorn in the flesh."

    This evening we are going to look at a passage of Scripture that is related to the subject matter of healing. In the Scripture we discover that our God is a God of healing. He says in Exodus 15:26, “I am the Lord who heals you.” We also read that Jesus Christ, God’s Son, heals us as well, for ...read more

    Shimei suffered from a spiritual illness that can plague even the most godly man or woman. He suffered from a "critical spirit." What can we do make sure we don’t fall prey to the same sickness in our lives?

    OPEN: An older couple were on a trip across country and they stopped at a roadside restaurant for lunch. As they got up to leave, the woman forgot and left her glasses on the table. They were several miles down the road before she realized she didn’t have them and to make matters worse, her husband ...read more

    What is moving the ground beneath your feet today? Is it the loss of a loved one? A marriage that is less than perfect? A job that seems insecure? An illness that threatens your life? A trusted person who has let you down? Faith in God can be restored.

    Nowhere to Stand Psalm 46:1-3 – God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.

    Was Satan telling the truth or lying when he accused God of surrounding Job with a protective hedge? If Job had one, do we? What is it? What kind of protection does it give, in view of illness. accidents, temptation, enemies, and loss that befall us?

    We need to get rid of the ill-fitting fashion, or armor, that we’ve tried to squeeze into that’s strangling the life out of us. We need to be who we are in Christ, and utilize our own special equipping. This is what David decided was best.

    Have you ever felt as though you don’t quite know where God wants to use you, and you often feel awkward where you’re presently serving? Perhaps it’s because you’ve been pushed into an area of service that doesn’t suit how the Lord has made you and equipped you, and who you really are inside. ...read more

    When the Shunammite woman's son became ill and died she went to the prophet Elisha. The woman recognized that it was at the Word of the Lord that she gave birth to her son. And she believed that it would be at the Word of the Lord that her son would live again!

    Although we will be focusing our Old Testament Lesson for a sermon together this morning I want you to think back to our Gospel Lesson for this Sunday.

    06 - James 3:1-12 Series

    Contributed by Michael Collins on Aug 26, 2021
     | 2,632 views

    This is the 6th of 11 Studies in the Book of James and it talks about the importance of controlling the way we use our tongues, and the ill-effects of being careless with the use of our tongues. Special caution is suggested to those who are teachers of God's word.

    James 3:1-2 My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. 2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. After talking about the importance of possessing a ...read more

    On Being Hospitable Series

     | 10,864 views

    Part II of the Four-Part Vision: God instructs his people to practice hospitality. What does this mean as we receive guests in our congregations? Are we ill-prepared to welcome our guests? Or do we receive them as the blessing and gift that God intended?

    Congregations are families. The longer that they are together, usually the harder it is to let other people become part of the inner circle of the church. And yet, we know that – just as we are to be hospitable as families – we are also called to be hospitable as groups of believers. The writer ...read more

    Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Jun 17, 2020
     | 3,614 views

    Suffering is universal. Everyone experiences it. None escape it. It is part and parcel of the human condition. Many Evangelicals love to focus on “health/wealth/blessings” forgetting to teach the other “side of the coin”. As such people are ill-equipped to deal with life’s many harsh blows.
