    God always answers our prayers. God allows no evil to occur that some good will not come from.

    God is in Control – You and I need to believe and have complete faith in this fact. We need to make it an important part of our own personal understanding in order to get the greatest insight into the meaning of our lives and the world around us. In today’s Gospel we hear that the Pharisees and ...read more

    Learning self control is about how your mind learns to rule your body, your passions, your hungers and your appetites.

    The text concerns David’s desire to build a temple "house" for God, and God’s response that God will build David’s house. We often try to control God, but God is in control, not us.

    Who’s in control? David has come a long way from being a shepherd boy in Bethlehem and the youngest of 8 sons to being the king of Israel, who reunited the northern and southern Kingdoms, established the capital at Jerusalem, and moved the ark of the covenant into the city. He ...read more

    Though in captivity Daniel’s story is a clarion call to us to THRIVE in the challenges of our cultural setting, and in so doing draw attention to our sovereign God.

    Daniel is an inspiring book that brings both a challenge and hope to all those who recognize that we are living in an environment that is alien to the lives we have been called to. This was Daniel’s experience. The book records the experiences of 4 Hebrew men taken into captivity by an evil ...read more

    God is in Control!

    Part 4 - When God is in control, I don’t have to be.

    Who likes to be in charge? Be honest, how many of you like to be in charge, you like to be in control? Most of us, even if we don’t like the responsibility, do like to be in control. It’s a natural thing. That doesn’t mean it’s right, but it is natural. WE We like to have our way. We ...read more

    The struggle for self-control goes on entirely inside an individual, but the results of self-control, or lack of it, show up entirely on the outside of a person.

    “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23) It’s probably fitting that “self-control” is the last fruit of the Spirit in our nine week study. It may be the most ...read more

    self-control - is at the heart of our faithful walk before God and people. We lose it in small ways which leads to bigger problems

    Respectable Sins – Self-Control How often have you had someone say to you ‘He who is without sin cast the first stone?’ Or maybe you have someone say to you ‘Judge not lest you be judged?’ I reckon they must two verses which are most often taken out of their context and misapplied.

    Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them into something good in our lives.

    Matthew 4 God is in Control (4:1) 1. Jesus “was led up by the Spirit…” - God is in control here. - This was all apart of God’s plan. - God doesn’t transform trials into good. - Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them ...read more

    A correction of a much misquoted verse: our hope is built on God, not fatalism.

    GOD IS IN CONTROL ROMANS 8:28 A man’s wife dies, leaving him with three little children to care for. Although he is nor bitter, he is lonely and confused. Perhaps some of his friends try to comfort him by saying, "You know, it all works out for the best." Try as he might, he cannot bring ...read more
