This prayer that John record is a prayer that Jesus prayed for his disciples. The part that includes us happens just after our text for this week. But we can be included anyway. Jesus is praying for us! What an amazing thing. Set this thought alongside the idea of Ascension. Jesus is leaving, ...read more

The Valley Of Dry Bones

Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Oct 11, 2023

God wants you to speak words of faith and hope over your dry bones! It wouldn't have been easy for Ezekial either. While Ezekial was seeing a valley full of dry bones; God was seeing a valley with a vast army. And when he spoke, miracles happened.

The prophet Ezekiel was a contemporary of the prophet Jeremiah. God had a particular mission for Ezekiel. After the Babylonian exile, Jeremiah ministered to the children of Israel who were still in Jerusalem. But Ezekiel was carried off with the second group that was taken to captivity by the ...read more

Authority

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Nov 13, 2023

Good morning Cross Pointe Church! • Today’s message may have a few questions. • Not intended for you to raise your hands or answer. • The first question is: o Something new in God’s Word? o Familiar passage with new eyes? 

• In 2020 did you perceive it was a double standard around the country that churches were shut-down or limited in services allowed, yet bars, restaurants, big box stores and malls were deemed essential, so not nearly as affected? BODY • As Christians, I believe there are some critical questions ...read more

Made For More

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025

Jesus calls His church beyond comfort, silence, and spectacle—to live Spirit-filled, Scripture-grounded lives that reveal His power and love.

Picture Jesus, freshly baptized, water still drying on his shoulders, the voice of the Father ringing in his soul. “You are my beloved Son.” The dove has barely taken flight. That is exactly when the devil comes calling. Nobody gets a free victory lap after baptism. The real fight often starts ...read more

The Armor Of God 4 Of 8

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

Often when the police send out an APB (All Points Bulletin) on the police band, they will alert their fellow officers to be on the lookout for a particularly dangerous criminal and they will say they are "Armed and Dangerous".

Many Post Offices have a bulletin board that shows pictures of these criminals so that we will know what they look like if we come into contact with them. But consider our greatest enemy: • You will not hear a thing about our greatest enemy on the police band • You will not find a picture of our ...read more

Faith Cometh By…

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

Look especially at verse 6, we read, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

Also, let us look at Romans 10:13-17 All churches that are Bible preaching churches, preach regularly on the doctrines of the Bible. Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX. Faith is one of those doctrines. For example: • It is so simple a child can understand it • It is ...read more

Where Do You Stand? Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

This message looks at how our heart is like soil into which the gospel is planted, and we must be certain that our soil is fertile and ready to receive the Word. Otherwise, we will wither in our relationship with God; or worse, we will perish.

I have entitled our message, “Where Do You Stand?” This morning, as we look at what’s called the “Parable of the Sower,” we’re going to see how Jesus talks about four different soils, or four different types of spiritual ground, on which people may stand in relation to God. Something challenging ...read more

It Bore No Fruit Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

If a person does not abide in God’s Word, he or she will be cut down. This passage looks at how we need to allow Jesus, the Word made flesh, to penetrate our heart as He penetrated the temple. We are the temple of the Holy Spirit.

This evening’s message is entitled “It Bore No Fruit,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree.” “Die when I may,” said Abraham Lincoln, “I want it said of me that I plucked a weed and planted a flower wherever I thought a flower would grow.”(1) Lincoln ...read more

Embracing Grace

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022

The vast majority of people do not "accept" Christ (Luke 4:24) but refuse the "favor" (grace) He offers (v. 19). God has sent Christ to offer His grace. We must embrace the grace offered in Christ. Luke shows us how.

There’s a key word in this passage that I would like to point out. It is not obvious in the English, so it’s a bit tricky. But the word ‘favor’ in verse 19 and the word ‘acceptable’ in verse 24 render the same Greek word, which is dektos. In fact, in the King James Version it is translated ...read more
