    Let's Go To Galilee

    based on 3 ratings
     | 21,039 views

    After His resurrection, the Lord instructed the disciples to meet Him in Galilee. What's the significance of Galilee in Jesus and the disciples' ministry? The Lord's call for us to go to Galilee is still valid today.

    LET'S GO TO GALILEE "6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him. 7 But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He ...read more

    you got to be avid in your thirst for God’s voice! Are you hearing me? Nevertheless, He speaks to people who are desperate to hear Him and also obey His instructions, God knows the depths of our heart.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 26,838 views

    Are we equipped to stand in difficult times? This exposition of Philippians 4:1-3 examines Paul's instruction for standing firm. We cannot do it without the right mindset. We cannot do it without unity.

    Intro We are in a study of Philippians; our text today in Philippians 4:1-3. In the previous three chapters Paul has emphasized the importance of standing firm in the face of persecution and other difficulties. In chapter one he exhorted: “Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so ...read more

    Prophetic Utterances Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 12, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,047 views

    Christians are listening to prophecies on the Internet and must be taught how to test those messages. This teaching instructs Christians on how to operate in the prophetic and how to evaluate prophetic ministry so that we receive the benefits and avoid the pitfalls associated with it.

    Our subject today is prophetic utterances. How do we benefit from prophecies given in the Body of Christ, and how do we avoid the pitfalls that people often fall into in the exercise and application of this gift? The gift of prophecy is a powerful tool in the church today. But powerful tools must ...read more

     | 11,958 views

    God has given us a sound mind! We are instructed to be strong and courageous! God has given us the power so we can overcome every obstacle in our way; He has given us love.

    OVERCOMING THE SPIRIT OF FEAR "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9. As we all have learned in Sunday School, the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness for forty years! ...read more

    The Apostle Peter directs believers in Jesus in some important attitudes as we move through our lives. He instructs us to understand the end, be intentional how we use our time, and encourages us in the practice of prayer.

    Worship The Lord Series

    Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Dec 4, 2022
     | 1,556 views

    Many of the Psalms are psalms of worship. Worship is something that has little appeal to the overly practical man. God only accepts worship in spirit & in truth. Therefore we must be instructed on how to worship in a way that pleases God.

    Part of this Psalm was written in response to the bringing home of the ark after it had been captured by the Philistines. David was so pleased and this is how he responded. • Worship to God is not merely what you do in church but how you respond to the circumstances that take place in your ...read more

    Not What We Expected

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jul 9, 2018
     | 6,662 views

    Opposition to the Good News of Jesus Christ is nothing new. The first 12 pastors were instructed how to deal with it. Think long and hard how you respond to the message of the Good News as there are consequences depending on your reaction.

    Not What We Expected Mark 6:1-13 Jesus said that; ““A prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.” “He was amazed at their lack of faith.” Mark 6:4 Sometimes people think they know you. They think they know your family and your family ...read more

    The Lord Will Provide Series

     | 8,343 views

    The story of Abraham instructed to sacrifice his son reveals the obedience and faith of Abraham. God is sovereign and in control of our lives. He is able to provide in any need. He is able to provide for Abraham. He is able to provide for us.

    Imagine your back is up against the wall. You have reached the end of your rope. Every prospect for the future is dark and gloomy. Maybe that is not so hard for you to imagine. That is when there is only one thing that could possibly turn the situation around. A miracle from God. Will God ...read more

    Lord, Please Move Me Out Of This Waiting Line John 5:1–9 (Esp. Vv. 6 & 8); Hebrews 6:10–12

    Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Jul 26, 2025
     | 535 views

    When you consider our topic, it is a prayer and not an instruction or a commandment. it reveals the critical need element in all of us and the desperate state of human depravity without the Savior and without divine help because we all need help.

    I first preached this message in 2006, five unique variations in five different services. And with each one, I was profoundly blessed by the inexhaustible dimensions through which the same Scripture revealed Christ. One text. One Christ. Multiple perspectives. This particular message is the ...read more

    A Hiding Place For The Repentant

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 8, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,272 views

    Before we can enter into the blessings which follow forgiveness, we must first admit our sin, and acknowledge our responsibility before God.

    A HIDING PLACE FOR THE REPENTANT. Psalm 32:1-11. The beatitudes of Psalm 32:1-2 remind us of Psalm 1:1-2, which describes the righteous man and proclaims him blessed. Yet, since the fall of Adam, no mere man has been born with original righteousness. The second Psalm leads us to the place where ...read more

     | 3,988 views

    Abram continued on his journey Southward And found himself in EGYPT. He overshot and went beyond the land of promise. Is it possible for us to be called from sin, be instructed by the word, assemble together in praise and still miss the place of God’s

    Genesis 12: 9 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south. 10 And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.

    Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has courage to lose sight of the shore. The lessons we can learn from God’s specific instructions concerning the Tabernacle are an adventure in itself. Let’s examine it together!

    Introduction The first time we are introduced to the subject of a Tabernacle is when the children of Israel had left Egypt and in Exodus 26:1 we read "Thou shall make the Tabernacle..." For the most part, the Tabernacle was to be used in some cases as a mobile worship center. What’s most ...read more

    When God chooses a person to do his work, he does so with perfect insight and understanding of what kind of person he needs to get the job done. Our role is not to question his instructions but rather to submit and obey.

    I love the movie “A Christmas Story”. You know – the one with the young boy who dreams of getting a b.b. gun for Christmas. It’s got schoolyard bullies and neighbors dogs roaming through the house, and childhood dreams and memories of the way life used to be all wrapped up in one. This year ...read more
