Gideon: When The Lord Gave Him The Promised Victory Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 9, 2022

Military strategists would have laughed out loud if they had heard God's strategy for defeating the enemies of Israel during Gideon's day. Gideon,though, followed these instructions to the letter and God gave Israel a great victory!

Introduction: Some of the military’s greatest strategists mentioned never going into action against the enemy unless you have two or three times more of everything than they do. Gideon had blown the trumpet, basically the same thing as declaring war against Israel’s enemies, and many of the local ...read more

As It Is In Heaven

Contributed by Scott Sutton on Aug 14, 2022

Reading the Lord’s Prayer recently, I thought about something that it says in a way that I had never thought about before. It says in verse #10 “...Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

Then it occurred to me, if we are to do God's will on Earth then we must know what is going on in heaven first! Because that was how Jesus was teaching His disciples to pray. So that means we also need to know what is happening in Heaven and how God’s will is being accomplished. The first ...read more

Today in our text, we have a question that is asked of everyone of us.

Have you noticed how many unnecessary questions we are asked each day?

How To Become A Great Servant Of The Lord (Sermon On Christian Service)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

Every Christian is a servant of the Lord. The things that separate us as servants are those two adjectives, GOOD and BAD.

How King David Overcame Discouragement

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

A preacher who is nationally known made a statement before thousands of Christians. He said, “I never get discouraged!”

Now listen, I do not wish to be unkind, but I truly believe this man is being less than truthful to the thousands of people he was addressing. WHY DON’T I BELIEVE HIM? Some of the greatest men who ever walked on this earth have become discouraged from time to time. For example, the Bible reveals ...read more
