    How can we develop a passion for God?

    Passion For God Matt. 22:37 A lawyer once asked Jesus what was the greatest commandment. I believe that Jesus' answer probably shocked him. See, the Pharisees had over 300 commandments that they had made up. They had gotten so caught up in the law, in keeping the law that they had forgotten what ...read more

    The Call To The Altar Of Fire

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Sep 20, 2010
    based on 17 ratings
     | 13,694 views

    Combing 1 Kings 18 & Gen 49 this is a message showing that God is calling His people back to the altar of fire, warts and all. 1 Kings 18 shows the rebuilding of the altar, and Gen 49 shows the character of the tribes called back.

    The Call to the Altar of Fire Text: Genesis 49: 1,2 Jacob has twelve sons and he prophesies over them what it would be like for them in last days. I believe this text can be spiritually applied to the body of Christ in the last days. The literal Hebrew is the "end of days". I want to combine it ...read more

    In today’s passage, James wants to keep us from the deception that being religious is merely going through a set of rituals and motions. James doesn’t want us to be deceived into thinking the more I exemplify religious behavior the more spiritual I am. Le

    REALIGION James 1:26-27 INTRODUCTION: Preventing deception is a major theme for James (1:1:16, 22, 26). In today’s passage, James wants to keep us from the deception that being religious is merely going through a set of rituals and motions. James doesn’t want us to be deceived into ...read more

    Having Power With God

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Mar 26, 2012
    based on 13 ratings
     | 16,628 views

    Most spend their lives living nominal Christian lives with little or no power. If you and I desire to be more than mundane believers and to have power with God I believe we need to have four key elements – humility, faith, perseverance, and holiness.

    Having Power with God Genesis 32:22-30 Jacob spent a night encountering God. At the end of that night his name was changed from “Jacob” which means “supplanter”, “heel catcher”, or “deceiver” to Israel meaning “having power with God”. Jacob was changed. No longer was he going to live his way. As ...read more

    Slaves To Sons Series

    Contributed by Greg Powell on Aug 26, 2020
     | 5,423 views

    To be a slave your entire life is devastating and discouraging. To be under the guidance of a schoolmaster is frustrating and limiting. But to be a son or daughter, to have a Heavenly Father, that’s a relationship you can enjoy for eternity.

    INTRO: I want to start the message with an excerpt of an email I received a few weeks ago where someone shared a brief glimpse of their spiritual maturation in regard to the topics we’ve been centered on for the last couple months. I enjoyed it very much then, and believe it could serve as a great ...read more

    If you grew up in Pentecostal circles as I did, chances are you heard , used or are still using the phrase “I plead the blood.” However, some people in the church world today don’t understand the phrase and ask, “What does it mean?”

     | 5,945 views

    All glory for our change goes to God. He provided us with salvation. We do not need to do good works to merit salvation, but we should do good works because we have received salvation. This is God’s plan for every believer.

    Opening illustration: Can a man be officially alive after being declared legally dead? That question became international news when a man from Ohio showed up in good health after being reported missing more than 25 years earlier. At the time of his disappearance he had been unemployed, addicted, ...read more

    The very short text, HE HEALED THEM ALL, refers to Jesus healing all the people who had any difficulty whatever.

    SERMON: HE HEALED THEM ALL Scripture Matt 12:9-15 9-10 When Jesus left the field, He entered their meeting place. There was a man there with a crippled hand. They said to Jesus, “Is it legal to heal on the Sabbath?” They were baiting Him. 11-14 He replied, “Is there a person here who, ...read more

    Often we face obstructions which hinder us from getting what we need from the Lord. Unusual steps may have to be taken, but the Lord will answer faith with help & healing! Don't limit God or the way He may work!

    TAKING YOUR FAITH THROUGH THE ROOF Luke 5:17-26 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. An atheist had an old tree in his back yard. During a storm, the tree fell on his neighbor’s house.

    It seems we make excuses and promises about many of the things we do. We do this in many ways, such as, each year we make promises to ourselves.

    We call them New Year’s resolutions. But so often we MAKE THESE PROMISES and then we BREAK THEM! Illus: Did you hear about the man who got tired of making these promises and breaking them?

    Adopted Sons Of God

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 9, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,297 views

    This message looks at the concept of adoption. If we confess Jesus as Savior and Lord, we receive a new father, which is God the Father, and we become heirs of the kingdom. We are then able to call upon God as our Abba or Daddy.

    Some of the most well-known words to the believer are the first six words of the Lord’s Prayer: “Our Father, who art in heaven.” Our Father - God is known as our heavenly Father. We pray to God as our Father, speak of Him as our Father, and even sing to Him as our Father. For example, one ...read more
