    Paul exhorts his readers concerning their relationship with their elders.

    As I considered speaking from the following passage of Scripture, I initially felt a little uncomfortable because I was exhorting and admonishing God’s people in an area in which I was personally involved.

     | 558 views

    This week I found an old letter my Grandad sent to me as a kid - as I decyphered word for word the difficult handwriting it made me reflect on Paul's letter we have listened to this morning - and how if we decypher it word for word - it too can turn out to be so precious to us

    I moved into my new house last December and (Don’t judge me for this) – I am still unpacking boxes – including some that never got unpacked from the previous move ten years ago… And while I was going through some boxes this week, I came across this – It’s a letter to me from my granddad written to ...read more

    The Bible tells us that David was a man after God's heart. What was so special about David and how can we be more like him? In 1 Samuel 24, we discover that David had a focused heart, faithful heart, and forgiving heart.

    Are you ready to leave 2020 behind for good? As much as we'd like to cut COVID off and put it behind us, we won't be able to quite yet. But there are other things that we can break free from. But if we're going to do it the right way we'll need to burn the ships.

    BURN THE SHIPS As we get ready to go into 2021, I'm sure everyone is ready to leave 2020 behind for good. Unfortunately, 2021 doesn't look like it's going to be much of a fresh start; we're still dealing with COVID in a major way. So it looks like we won't be able to get rid of ...read more

    Freedom From Generational Curses

    Contributed by James Dina on Jan 24, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 14,745 views

    Why would God want you to confess the sins of your father or mother when you had nothing to do with their sins in the first place? He wants you to know the severity of their sins. A generational curse comes through the blood line and can only be cancelled by the blood of Jesus.

    FREEDOM FROM GENERATIONAL CURSES “Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation” (Exodus ...read more
