    Sermon # 14 - Stay United, Prayerful And Obedient Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 3, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 755 views

    Jonah’s disobedience brought untold troubles on all the crew aboard that ship. The church too must be wary of those who are divisive and must strive hard to maintain unity, integrity continuing in prayer and being obedient to God.

    We read in Jonah 1:11, Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea was raging and growing more tempestuous. (AFV) The events that preceded this verse were that the ship on which Jonah voyaged was faced with a severe tempest. The mariners ...read more

    Sermon # 26 - Be Grateful - Don't Grumble Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 14, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 921 views

    Jonah’s disobedience and rebellion stemmed from an ungrateful heart. The Israelites too had to wander in the wilderness because of their constant grumbling and lack of thankfulness. Let’s learn to set aside all grumbling and replace it with a thankful heart.

    We read in Jonah 3:1-3, “Then the LORD spoke his word to Jonah a second time. He said, "Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people the message I have given you." Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the LORD told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three ...read more

    A Sermon on the running from the call of God. How our disobedience can bring the worst of storms in to our lives

    "Enough Is Enough" - I Am On The Run by Rev. Timothy G. Porter Jonah 1:1-17 Introduction: Have you ever made a lousy decision? As you’re laughing, you’re probably really thinking, “What do you mean?” A bad decision. “I’ve made more than I can ...read more

    The fall is a constant reminder of the reality of man’s fall and God’s reaction which leads to God’s Judgment and Mercy Provisions.

    Five Basic Points: I. Test of obedience II. Its Violation III. The moral evil it involved IV. The results if produced V. God’s Reaction – Judgment and Mercy Provisions I.

    Funeral message for Mr. Wadell Wilkins, who had been comatose for years, following an apparent reaction to an anesthetic administered for orthopedic surgery

    A LONG NIGHT’S JOURNEY INTO DAY Numbers 9:15-23 When our children were small, our family would take trips back home to Kentucky. We discovered that a six hundred mile journey was better if we traveled at night. We would pack our bags, make a big thermos of coffee for me, and set out in the ...read more

    As we examine this beatitude, let’s note some ways true believers are persecuted and what our reaction to persecution should be.

    BLESSED ARE THE PERSECUTED Matthew 5:10-12 The Apostle Paul was describing the many different persecutions he faced in his life as a preacher of the gospel. He shared how the Lord had delivered him from from them all. He wrote, “In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus ...read more

    Moses obeyed God, but the intial reaction was Pharoah’s orders and the Hebrews’ backlash. Sometimes we get misunderstood too. But hang in there anyway!

    Good Intentions – Exodus 5-6 At their school carnival, our kids won four free goldfish (lucky us!), so out I went Saturday morning to find an aquarium. The first few I priced ranged from $40 to $70. Then I spotted it—right in the aisle: a discarded 10-gallon display tank, complete with gravel ...read more

    Nehemiah's reaction to the bad news he hears is a great example for us about what to do when we face difficult circumstances.

    Introduction: A. Have you ever had someone deliver you some news saying, “I’ve got some good news and some bad news, which do you want first?” B. Here are a few “Good news/bad news” items for preachers. 1. Good News: You baptized seven people today in the ...read more

    New Year's Day 1989: Jonah, running from his responsibility, fell asleep. It might have been the sleep of a rationalized conscience; or depression. But a greater than Jonah is here, Christ, who can heal both conscience and soul.

    It's not easy to stay out of the storms, no matter what escape you plan. It's just not easy to keep from getting rained on and buffeted around when the storm is coming, no matter what means you use to take shelter. This week, on the afternoon of the sudden squall, I had gone home to attend to my ...read more

    This is the 15th of 31 devotions from a series called, 'The Church Called Jonah.' In these devotions, which are based on the book of Jonah, I make a comparison between The Church-at-large in the light of this present global pandemic.

    # 15 – The First Death Wish Jonah 1:12: “And he said to them, ‘Pick me up and throw me into the sea; then the sea will become calm for you. For I know that this great tempest is because of me.’” In our previous devotion we saw how the sailors asked Jonah what they should do to him so that the sea ...read more

    Sermon # 20 - A Repentant Heart Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 25, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 887 views

    Jonah was brought to the depths and after being battered in the belly of a big fish, Jonah repented and turned back to God. Rebellion is detrimental to us and only those who repent and get back to God can fulfill His purposes for their lives.

    For this study and meditation we will read, Jonah 1:17, “When Jonah fell into the sea, the LORD chose a very big fish to swallow Jonah. He was in the stomach of the fish for three days and three nights.” (ERV) When Jonah disobeyed God, and voyaged in the opposite direction to the place God bid him ...read more

    Jonah depended on family and nationality as the basis of his Spirituality. His relationship does not go to the heart.

    Last week we talked about free will. How Jonah was exercising his free will when he went and caught a boat going the opposite direction from where God send him. We looked over the scripture to determine Jonah’s qualifications. If he was being called for the first time as a Prophet. From the ...read more

    The message of repentance is missing from preaching today! This message uses the story of Jonah to illustrate repentance.

    INTRODUCTION: · “Repentance” = “To change one’s ways because of contrition” · The Bible is a Book of repentance: o Used 46 times in the Old Testament o Used 65 times in the New Testament · There are three types of repentance in the Bible.

    This sermon takes a little different look at the book of Jonah... as one traveling as a hitchhiker on the road of life.

    Jonah 1:1-17 NIV The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai: 2 "Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me." 3 But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that ...read more
