    Walking On Water

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jun 18, 2005
    based on 25 ratings
     | 8,020 views

    The Christian life is like "Walking on Water" and to do it successfully we need to be assured that Jesus Prays for Us; He’s Present with Us, Helps Us to cope with Fear and Urges Us to Move Out in Faith.

    WALKING ON WATER “Walking on water” – this is a biblical phrase which has found its way in everyday use. What does it mean? The secular meaning is that a person is doing wonders - but we can’t quite understand how they’re doing it and there’s a hint of danger that it could all go wrong! The ...read more

    What does Jesus have to say about anger?

    INTRODUCTION  After spending 3-1/2 hours enduring the long lines, surly clerks and insane regulations at the Department of Motor Vehicles, I stopped at a toy store to pick up a gift for my son.

    The Nugget Of Truth Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 13, 2005

    What are some modern day ways that we can fall into the same error as the Hebrews? Also - carving down to the nugget of God’s truth - and - letting the Spirit live out the Law of God in our lives.

    How do you sum up a letter like Hebrews? I see two ways that the author takes this chapter to make his final points to a people who were afraid to leave Judaism behind and fully plant their feet in Jesus. His first point is that they are not really leaving all they knew behind - but they will see ...read more

    The Devil does not appear to us in a red suite with a pitchfork. In fact, Satans temptations are often attractive and fill legitimate needs - or seem to. Learn how Jesus fought these temptations and how we can as well.

    Temptation An attorney was sitting in his office late one night, when the Devil appeared before him. The Devil told the lawyer, /’I have a proposition for you. You can win every case you try, for the rest of your life. Your clients will adore you, your colleagues will stand in awe of you, and you ...read more

    In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.

    Me – Are we aware of the battle that goes on in the spiritual realm? In every world religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more

    Let us daily call on God, let us continually approach God’s throne of mercy to access the wonderful privileges, benefits and blessings that are found in the place of prayer.

    To understand the meaning of the phrase ‘Watch and Pray’, let us look at Matthew 26:36-46 where Jesus used this phrase. In the context of this scripture, in this situation where Jesus instructed His disciples to ‘Watch and Pray’, what He meant was: • Stay awake and pray with me. • Don’t sleep, be ...read more

    Greetings, beloved family in Christ! Isn't it a wonderful blessing to gather together in His name, to seek His wisdom and guidance, to immerse ourselves in the living waters of His word? As we gather in this sacred space, we are reminded of the words of the great preacher, Charles Spurgeon, who ...read more
