    How should Believers live in a world hostile to God? We find some answers in the closing verses of James.

    James 5:7-20 “Christians Under Pressure” INTRODUCTION It wasn’t long after his birth that Jesus first experienced hostility (i.e. Herod in Matthew 2:13-23). In our generation we are seeing Christians experiencing hostility around the globe (e.g. Churches in Indonesia). There is an element to the ...read more

    What type of person does God choose to confront politicians with His word? If you were to picture in your mind that type of person who would it be? Billy Graham?

    We all have to wait, and the hardest is waiting for the Lord to do something in our lives in the midst of struggles.

    While we are waiting James 5:7-20 We know how to fill time while waiting… for the car to be fixed, bus to come, the flight to arrive or to land. We are waiting too… We are put on hold by something outside our control. I. While we are waiting we wait for God to do something… a) Jesus is coming ...read more

    Praying God's Will

     | 2,571 views

    Praying for the eight ball to go into the corner pocket, for you to be rich and famous, for the right partner to come along, is not praying God’s will for your life. Do you want to be holy, righteous and pure. Now, that’s praying God’s will.

    PRAYING GOD’S WILL James 5:16-17 The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. 17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

    Elijah is considered by most to be the greatest of the Hebrew prophets. Yet James says he was a man just like you and I.

    Introduction: I began a series of sermons a couple of weeks ago entitled: Hero’s of the Faith. Two weeks ago we saw how Moses answered God’s call to deliver the nation of Israel out of slavery in Egypt.

    All of us at one point or another wonder if prayer works? Does God hear us? Do our prayers just hit the ceiling and bounce back?

    Today, we are finishing our series A Search for what is real. We have been looking at what a real faith, a real spirituality looks like.

    The Necessity Of Prayer

     | 37,603 views

    God acts when man pray. The asking is critical to the task at hand. We are not dealing with a reluctant Father, but a God who is willing to respond. Prayer accomplishes God’s will.

He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.

    I Can't Hear You!

    Contributed by Ron Hicks on Aug 4, 2007

    Since the majority of the church spends so little time in intercessory prayer, it is essential that not only the quantity of our prayers increase, but also the quality.

    I CAN’T HEAR YOU! Have you ever been ugly to someone and when you try to talk to them or ask them for something, they say, “I can’t hear you!” The key to answered prayer lies within your relationship with God. James 5:15-17 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise ...read more
