Joshua A Successful Leader Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 25, 2022

Many spiritual programs, activities, and events are not fruitful, not successful, and never yield the targeted result, not because of lack of money and personnel but lack of sincere prayer warriors. We get people to stand on the frontline but not on the kneeling.

Theme: You will be Successful Text: Joshua 1:1-9 Greetings: The Lord is good and His love endures forever. Introduction: Joshua was known as the soldier of the Lord and a successor of Moses. According to the Dictionary of the Bible: “Four theological themes appear in the descriptions of ...read more

Courageous Leadership Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 26, 2022

Moses is now gone. The weight of leadership rests on Joshua. There must have been a sense that Joshua felt weak and scared. God repeated the charge Moses gave to Joshua. Be strong and courageous.

“Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them” is a famous quote of Shakespeare. There is a cartoon picture of a statue of a leader. The caption on the base of the statue said, he had “greatness thrust upon them.” It is a humorous ...read more

Failure To Launch Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Nov 14, 2021

Joshua didn’t go out on a wing and a prayer or a gut feeling or trust in his own instincts. He went with God’s promises and He had God with him.

How many of you suffer from “atychiphobia” [a-ticky-phobia]? [Raise my hand.] Aw, common on … really? I’m the only one? It might help you if I tell you what it means, amen? “Atychiphobia” [a-ticky-phobia] is the “fear of failure” and, trust me, it’s a very, very common phobia. I have it every ...read more

Speaking Words Of Faith Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

Words can change how we think, act or dress; and even determine what we do with our life. This message looks at what the Bible has to say about taking control of our thoughts and speaking words of faith and words of life.

Spoken words program your heart either to success or defeat. Words . . . carry faith or fear, and they produce after their kind. - Charles Capps(1) To get started this morning, I want to talk about the power of words; and a good example of words can be seen in the news media. You hear a lot of ...read more

Mentoring A Teammate Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 5, 2022

There are certain tasks in ministry that are too big to handle by yourself, so you need to select and train a teammate. Moses enlisted Joshua as his teammate, and mentored him in envisioning and realizing the dream of the Promised Land.

You have fought the good fight, you have stayed the course, you have kept the faith (2 Timothy 4:7), and you are now on the precipice of realizing your hard sought-after calling.
