     | 5,395 views

    Speaks of the importance of memorizing Scripture and applying it to your everyday life.

    Better Than a Bracelet Introduction: Scripture memorization is a powerful tool in our daily walk with our Lord. The reason it is such a compelling tool is because you can recall a passage that God has placed on your heart at a moment’s notice and use that passage to combat Satan’s attacks. One ...read more

    Are You Positioned For Revival?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 1, 2020
     | 7,244 views

    The lame man, like many Christians today, didn't get his miracle in the agitated waters, because he didn't position himself close enough to the revival zone. If you want revival, you must get and stay as close as possible to the Holy Spirit.

    ARE YOU POSITIONED FOR REVIVAL? John 5:1-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A professor gathered the papers after an exam and found a $100 bill attached to one of them with a note saying: "Dear Professor Smith, here’s a $100 bill which you may keep if you give me 100 points - a dollar per ...read more

    A Call To Grow!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jul 8, 2006
     | 2,033 views

    God calls us to grow in our intimate relationship (if we are married), in our brotherly love, and in our attitude to work.

    We have just read from a portion of the Bible which could be seen as impossible for a ‘Priest’ to relate to. After all (you might think to yourself), what would a ‘Priest’ know about the intimate relationship between a man and a woman! After all (you might think to yourself), what would a ‘Priest’ ...read more

    Grace is free, but discipleship costs. Are we prepared to pay?

    We see adverts all over the place, promising low prices and amazing deals on all sorts of things and products. But on closer examination many of these so-called bargains are to so cheap after all because there are all sorts of hidden extras that have to be paid for. Often the quoted price is a lot ...read more

    A reporter once asked to Helen Keller “What would be worse than being born blind?” She replied, “The only thing worse than being blind is to have sight without vision.

    King Solomon, in his wisdom and under the inspiration wrote, “Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he.”(Proverbs 29:18) In the Bible "vision" refers to the will and purpose of God being made known, in other words inspired and divine guidance. ...read more

    The Cleansing of the Temple was chosen for inclusion in the Gospels not as just information, but is amazingly rich in meaning.

    Temple Tantrum (Mark 11:15-19) 1. One guy made a New Year’s resolution without much meaning. He resolved he would never shovel snow again. Since he lived in Miami Beach, Florida, it was a resolution he no doubt kept! 2. Besides the most common resolutions — like losing weight, ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 8, 2025
     | 214 views

    Jesus is coming for you when he is ready, not when you get ready.

    Our Gospel parable today of the Supervising Servant tells us that everybody has a day when we will be judged immediately after death, but the day and time is unspecified, and so Jesus is giving a series of admonitions saying to be prepared and vigilant. Jesus probably delivered the parable as a ...read more

    In a nutshell: The Lord of the church will not accept any form of tolerance in His church that compromises His truth! When I say the word COMPROMISE what comes to mind?
