    The Power Of Helpless Praying

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Aug 30, 2007
    based on 20 ratings
     | 26,240 views

    You cannot know that God answers helpless prayers until you are in a helpless and hopeless situation. Only then will you come to know God as the God who answers helpless prayers.

    Tonight we’re talking about the power of helpless praying and what happens when we understand what God can do through our prayers. The Secret of Your Power Is Your Weakness What is the secret of power to you? If you’re Popeye, I guess the secret of power is a can of spinach. If you’re ...read more

    Prayer (1) Gideon’s Prayer Regarding A Fleece

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jun 7, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,342 views

    Most commentators criticise Gideon, feeling that his prayer demonstrates a lack of faith. But given how positively the New Testament views Gideon, we should be inclined to take a positive view of his prayer. It's a very sensible prayer, and a great example to us.

    Today we’re starting a short series on prayer, and looking at a prayer which Gideon prayed. It’s in Judges 6:36-40. Introduction First, let’s look at the situation Gideon was in before we look at his prayer. We may think, ‘We pray, God answers. Simple.’ But when we look at what was going on at ...read more

    Comfort: Give It & Take It!

    Contributed by Kelly Durant on Jun 8, 2015
     | 4,546 views

    All of us confront problems in life, but it is how one handles them that matters! Crisis situations are not the whole problem, how one reacts and handles them determines if matters will calm down or if they will get worse!

    Comfort: Give It & Take It! By Kelly Durant 8-10-14 Romans 1:11-12 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; 12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. 2.

    The Ruler Meets The Rabbi Series

    Contributed by George Mansfield on Jan 4, 2008
     | 2,970 views

    It was so important for Nicodemus the Ruler to make contact with Jesus the Rabbi. It was a life and death situation. With his learning and experience, the ruler had never entertained the concept of a new birth. Jesus helps him.

    THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE INTRODUCTION TO SERIES: The title of this series used to be seen by me as untrue. Surely there are no “free lunches,” let alone, all of the best things in life being free. I thought that. But when we begin to see things through God’s eyes, finding out which “things” ...read more

    Stepping out in Faith can be pretty scary. There is so much apparent uncertainty, and often a lack of ability to see where our foot will land. Peter took some amazing steps of faith that led him to be able to walk on water! What are the things we can l

    If you want a happy new year, separate yourself from the world and saturate yourself in the Word. That way you can situate yourself by the water. Otherwise, you will be sifted like wheat.

    Who Am I

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 15, 2015
     | 7,538 views

    Like Peter, we are followers of Jesus. Like Peter, we sometimes have deep faith, and, at other times, a lack of faith. Jesus saw in Peter the same thing he sees in us-building material that can be shaped into a people of faith to serve his reign.

    The Gospel reading from Matthew 16:13-20 takes place in the region of Caesarea Philippi. It was a territory where pagan gods were worshipped, and it is there that Jesus asks Peter a question about his identity; not in some safe territory, but in a non-believing location. Perhaps that is why Jesus ...read more

    “Immanuel” is a code name, with a secret meaning. The wonderful secret of that name is that God has come into our lives in the form of Jesus, and he will be with us always, in every situation.
