    The Wrestling Match

    Contributed by James May on Aug 18, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,188 views

    Jacob wrestled with the Lord all night, until the breaking of the day. The lesson that many us need to learn is that we are all wrestlers, but the time must come when we must let God win or be lost. Our walk will forever be changed just as Jacob's was.

    The Wrestling Match By Rev. James May Jacob’s life had not been an easy one, but he had brought most of his problems upon himself. It had started from the moment he was conceived by Rebekah, after she became the wife of Isaac, who was the son of Abraham. Even in the womb there was a ...read more

    "It's Time For A Name Change"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Jan 5, 2004
    based on 26 ratings
     | 10,175 views

    In this text Jacob’s name would be changed from Jacob to Israel. Jacob would prevail with God and have the power of God upon his life. Perhaps it is time for you to have a "name change."

    Text: Gen 32:24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. 25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. 26 And he said, Let me ...read more

    Pressing On Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Jan 21, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,290 views

    This is a narrative style sermon intended to bring out the spirit of the passage and give drama and encouragement to listeners to keep "Pressing On" in their walk, or run, of faith.

    KEEP PRESSING ON My first love in preaching is to teach a verse by verse exegesis of the passage. Sometimes the passage is so familiar to the congregation that a different approach is needed to accentuate the truths. To make the passage real for people who are listening and wanting to engage it ...read more

    Race For The Prize

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 28, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,396 views

    Winning a race requires purpose and discipline. As Christians, we are running toward our heavenly reward. Don’t merely observe from the grandstand; don’t just turn out to jog a couple of laps each morning. Train diligently – your spiritual progress depend

    Opening illustration: We can become distracted and look away from the goal of becoming like Christ. If you saw the movie Chariots of Fire, then maybe you remember the great runner Abraham. He had won so many races. His coach held up such discipline. But he finally lost one of the races because he ...read more

     | 4,059 views

    Moses was God's man in God's place but his timing was not always on target.

    1. The metaphor of the Olympic Games of Rome is key to the NT writers a. In the Revelation, John (and us) declares that the games of the emperor were not about Domitian but about God and Jesus at work in history b. Think of the ways he could have said to the world that Jesus is his son; until the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,921 views

    The world today needs this power to make a lasting impact on people, not pick up mutton on the way from church but power that keeps your mind stick like glue to God.

    Overflowing vessel Deuteronomy 34:9”Now Joshua the son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; and the sons of Israel listened to him and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.” Boy, this scripture kind of made me go bonkers!
