Not Because Of Me...but Because Of You

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on May 12, 2019

We must quit cheating ourselves and realize asking in faith removes all our self imposed limits and releases Gods limitless capabilities to work all things together for good, for those who Love Him!

Persistently Patient Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

Those who do not learn this lesson, and who just cannot accept their limitations, can never become mature adults, let alone mature Christians. Maturity is directly dependent upon one's patience.

All our lives we are being tested on our ability to wait. Those who fail to learn early become candidates for insanity. Nothing is more frustrating than to have an impatient mind in a world where you cannot control all that is necessary to fulfill all your desires and dreams. Gutzon Borglum, who ...read more

Extravagant Sacrifice

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 27, 2022

“Extravagant” means: “strange, curious; exceeding the limits of reason or necessity; unreasonably high in price.” We look at Jesus’ extravagant sacrifice for us, His call for us to make the same sacrifice, & that souls are worth that sacrifice.

What Do You Believe Jesus Can Do For You?

Contributed by Boniface Simiyu on Oct 11, 2024

Many people hear about Jesus but dont read scripture and consequently are limited in believing in the ability of Jesus to perform miracles or acts towards them. There are times what you believe Jesus can do, He will do.

The passage from Matthew 9:27-29, where two blind men cry out to Jesus for healing, provides a profound insight into the role of faith in receiving from Christ. Jesus asks the men, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” and upon their affirmative response, He touches their eyes and declares, ...read more
