    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 18, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,254 views

    Just as Jonah slept through the raging storm there were others in the Bible who also slept for various reasons. Today if the church does not wake up and continues to be in slumber of any sort, we will become easy targets of the evil one.

    We read in Jonah 1:5-6, And the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it unto them. But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep. So the shipmaster came to ...read more

    Delilah is remembered as a symbol of betrayal, manipulation, and misplaced priorities. However, her story serves as a warning to believers about the dangers of greed, ungodly relationships, and allowing the enemy to use us for his agenda.

    The presence of God in a man's life is the greatest asset in his life. Losing God's Presence is a great tragedy that is better imagined than experienced.

    The Bible provides several examples of people who fell into backsliding, some of whom were restored, while others faced tragic consequences. Studying their lives gives us valuable lessons on how to remain steadfast in faith and avoid their mistakes.

    Sermon # 22 - Longing For God's Presence Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 782 views

    As Jonah languished in the belly of the fish, he cried out to God and sought His presence. As believers of the new covenant we have the promise of the presence of the Holy Spirit of God every moment of our lives. May we learn to value God’s presence and live in obedience to His word.

    We read in Jonah 2:4,"Then I thought, 'I have been banished from your sight. Will I ever see your holy temple again?' (GW) After Jonah was swallowed by the big fish that God prepared, Jonah spent three turbulent days and nights in the belly of that fish. At the end of those three ...read more

    Contributed by Stephen Sheane on Jun 4, 2025

    From the story of Samson we see the importance of being born to be set apart, staying set apart and recognizing the Lord's presence.

The brother had some cheap regular cards that they played with. However, being a serious collector, he also had some that were very valuable. Those did not ...read more

    Sometimes God's blessing creates beautiful problems that require faithful responses, while other times success can lead to spiritual complacency that demands honest restoration.

    The Place Is Too Small 2 Kings 6:1-6 Introduction There comes a moment in every believer's life, in every ministry, and in every congregation when we must honestly assess where we are and where God is calling us to go. Sometimes we find ourselves in seasons of growth that demand expansion, and ...read more
