Our Daily Bread Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

“Our daily bread” isn’t a prayer just for boring old bread. Instead, “Our daily bread” is a prayer for the basic physical needs of life.

Series Introduction The Lord’s Prayer is but 38 words (in its original form in Luke’s gospel) that change the very way we understand God, ourselves, and the world. It’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. It’s not the only place where prayer is taught ...read more

The Power Of Forgivness Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

One of the things I love about this prayer is that it doesn’t pretend there aren’t real problems around us. It confronts the real needs in the world – pain and hunger. The Lord’s Prayer is designed to change our priorities and to reverse our thinking.

This is the fourth message for us to look at the Lord’s Prayer. And it’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. One story stands out about the importance of the Lord’s Prayer in the life of a Christian is from a gentleman who attends at NRH, Mike O’Neil. Mike ...read more

Don't Give Up Praying Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

God is very much like a runner at a track and field event, waiting for the starting pistol to fire. God is eager to hear your prayer and to answer your prayer. So dive in! Ask God for the moon. Ask Him for the stars.

Why Prayers Are Not Answered

Contributed by James Dina on Jun 18, 2021

I cried to God and He has heard me, and attended to the voice of my prayer; Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy away from me.

WHY PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED "I cry unto you, and you do not hear me: I stand up, and you didn't regard me" (Job 30:20) I prayed and cried to "the God that answers prayer" but He does not answer; Maybe He didn't hear me. That's the question that goes on in the ...read more

Por QuÉ Las Oraciones No Son Respondidas

Contributed by James Dina on Jun 18, 2021

He clamado a Dios y Él me ha escuchado, y ha atendido la voz de mi oración; bendito sea Dios, que no ha rechazado mi oración, ni ha alejado de mí su misericordia.

POR QUÉ LAS ORACIONES NO SON RESPONDIDAS "Clamo a ti, y no me escuchas: Me levanto, y no me miras" (Job 30:20) He orado y clamado al "Dios que responde a la oración", pero Él no responde; tal vez no me ha escuchado. Esa es la pregunta que pasa por la mente de ...read more

Jesus Is Real

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021

Whether it is two young Mormons who knock on your door or you decide to read the Qur’an for yourself, searching for the real answers in life is very different than most of our life’s pursuits.

When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation. It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah. For as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. The queen of the South will ...read more

Jesus Uncut

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021

A preacher is very much like a traffic engineer. And the preachers of Jesus’ day were routing the traffic right off a washed-out bridge with no warning. For real love always stands against deception.

While Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to dine with him, so he went in and reclined at table. The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not first wash before dinner. And the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of ...read more

Wasted Time And Wasted Prayers

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 22, 2022

In this life we are all allotted so many days, weeks, months and years. These days, weeks, months and years are a gift from almighty God.

What we do with this gift is left entirely up to us. Because of this gift of time this is why there is going to be a judgment to give an account of what we have done with our time. Some will have to give account for their teens, 20 years, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 or a 100 years. • But we must ...read more

Divided We Are Falling/Failing

Contributed by Steve Malone on Jan 20, 2021

The division (fueled by things like - COVID, masks and a presidential election...etc) between people who were redeemed and set free by the blood of Jesus and who claim to be following after Him... must stop!

Jesus Is Stronger

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jan 25, 2021

The story of Jesus casting out a demon in Luke 11 teaches us that Jesus has the power to release us from the power of Satan and indeed from everything that enslaves us. The story also shows us how Jesus deals with reproach and the necessity of positively choosing Jesus.

INTRODUCTION We are continuing our series in Luke. Today, we have the story of Jesus casting out a demon. I suspect that this story might not be the first choice of many preachers. Casting out demons probably seems very alien to many of us. But this story appears in Matthew, Mark and Luke and ...read more

The Things People Say About Jesus Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 4, 2021

You cannot be neutral about Jesus. You can admire Him or loathe Him. You can try to understand Him or have nothing to do with Him. You can listen to Him or ignore Him. The truth is that you will face Him one day, and what you have done with Him will decide where you will spend eternity.

Wherever Jesus went, He caused a riot or a revival. The work and words of the Lord Jesus Christ have affected lives, changed the course of history, made us face our mortality and grow up in terms of character, morals, thought, and living. For countless millions of souls who have trusted in Him ...read more
