Hear The Call: Reveille

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Mar 29, 2020

We await a trumpet call: REVEILLE. Can we hear the call: WAKE UP? BE READY? BE PREPARED? Spiritual sleep is hindering the work of the church. Let us arise out of SPIRITUAL SLEEP and answer duties' call!

THE SPIRIT’S CALL TO REVEILLE! By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com My opinion is that we are living TODAY IN A VERY PERILOUS TIME. History calls China the SLEEPING NATION. I think our enemy is using time as a LITMUS TEST to fine tune his last days procedures. This is a test, ...read more

Revenge Is Sweet—or Maybe Not Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 16, 2020

Samson may have thought revenge was sweet, after he took his own revenge on the Philistines, but revenge surely seemed to leave a bitter aftertaste.

Introduction: Between chapters 14 and 15, a period of time has gone by. Samson, at the end of chapter 14, was furious with his bride after she used her tears to basically ruin their week-long wedding feast. Several of the wedding guests—whom Samson didn’t seem to invite in the first place—placed a ...read more

A Thousand To One, And He Won! Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 19, 2020

Introduction: Samson had taken revenge on the Philistines twice after his return to Timnath (Judges 15:1-8). Once he found out his father-in-law had given his bride to the “companion” or best man, as we would say these days, Samson caught 300 “foxes”.

Samson: The Final Chapter, Part 1 Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 20, 2020

Introduction: Samson, by this time, had survived a number of encounters with the Philistines, Israel’s enemy and rulers at the time. This final chapter of his life is not the best chapter, in that he fell into an enemy’s trap. That would cost him his sight, and led to the cost of his life. Even ...read more

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 21, 2020

When these events took place, Samson was in trouble and he knew it. The final chapter of his life concludes with a very significant event. May we learn from Samson: trust God, but don't make the same mistakes he did!

Manipulation

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on May 3, 2020

Manipulation is a demonic spirit that one must be delivered from, so that one would not manipulate others and one would not be manipulated.

What is manipulation? In my own understanding, manipulation is: • An act of tactically influencing another person mind into thinking or doing what they would not have otherwise thought or done. • A demonic and afflicting spirit, because of the characters it exhibits. "Psychological ...read more

When The Ark Of God Is Captured By The Enemy

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jun 18, 2021

The ark of God represents the presence of God. It was the symbol of God's power and glory in the nation of Israel. When the bearer of the ark of God allows sin to reign in his heart, the presence of God departs from the ark.

TEXT: 1 Samuel 4:10-11 (NLT) "So the Philistines fought desperately, and Israel was defeated again. The slaughter was great; 30,000 Israelite soldiers died that day. The survivors turned and fled to their tents. The Ark of God was captured, and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were ...read more

What God Can Do With A Little

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 15, 2021

Here begins the beautiful story of “Feeding the Five Thousand,” which is told by all four of the evangelists and this is the only event from the earthly ministry of Jesus told in all four gospel. It shows what God can do with a little!

The first outstanding event of Jesus feeding of the five thousand, occurs right after the report of the twelve apostles, who had just returned from their first missionary tour. This is a glowing account of their work and their teaching. Matthew says that Jesus withdrew to a desert place apart when ...read more
