Leper (If It Be Thy Will)

Contributed by Tony Abram on Aug 28, 2010

In this short outline we point out that only one man in the Bible questioned if it was the 'Will of God' for Jesus to heal him. We will try to give a very plausible reason for this and also the importance of the Word of God.

LEPER (IF IT BE THY WILL) Luke 5:12-15 (KJV) 12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I ...read more

Accepting Change

Contributed by Troy Borst on Jan 28, 2012

My point is this, change is a natural part of life, but we do not have to accept all change. What changes should we accept? What changes should we go after? What changes should we praise God for when they come? How do we identify those changes that wi

Never The Less, I Will At Thy Word!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Sep 17, 2012

In this sermon outline we find that sometimes even if our head knowledge says no to the task before us, we take God at His Word and Promises. Romans 8:31 (KJV) What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? We then can sa

NEVER THE LESS, I WILL AT THY WORD! Luke 5:1-11 (KJV) 1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. 3 And he ...read more

The Gift Of Intercession

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Feb 12, 2012

The important place of prayer in the Christian's life.

The Scripture this morning contains two entirely different stories which seem unrelated, but, in fact, have much the same message. The first is an early meeting of Jesus with Peter, James and John before they became disciples. They had worked all night with all the skill of professional ...read more

Power For The Supernatural

Contributed by Bishop Prof. Julius Soyinka on Feb 11, 2015

God wants us to live in the fullness of His power after being saved. When we are filled with His Spirit, we cannot but operate in the supernatural.

POWER FOR THE SUPERNATURAL Study Text: Luke 5: 15 - 16 Introduction: - You can live a life of extraordinary, supernatural power! The secret is actually quite simple. God's power is obtained through a lifestyle of intimacy with Him. - Jesus understood the connection between power and intimacy. So He ...read more

Why Was Jesus So Popular? Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 18, 2023

This passage gives us insight into why Jesus became so popular so quickly. It also points out to us something that we emphasize in the modern American church that was not a part of Jesus' popularity.

VERSE 15 IS THE CENTERPIECE OF THIS PASSAGE: This is a story and testament to Jesus’ quickly rising popularity early in His ministry. - Luke 5:15. - It would be easy to see this passage as another miracle story, but I think it serves a more specific purpose in Luke’s gospel. Jesus has just called ...read more

Jesus Touched A Leper

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 18, 2022

Nobody touched lepers in Jesus' day. Their disease was disgusting. People were afraid to catch it. Lepers were totally ostracized. When Jesus touched a leper, heads would turn. That just wasn't done. Who are the 'lepers' of our culture who need a loving touch from us?

Jesus Cleans Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

The only obstacle that stood between this man and full health was Jesus’ willingness. Somewhere in the solitude of this lonely life, this man’s mental processes discovered that if only Jesus wanted to heal him, he would be healed.

This is the fourth message in a series, Plastic Jesus: How Did Someone So Real Become So Fake? We’ve been looking over the shoulder of Luke as he’s written his Gospel to communicate to us who Jesus is. We’ve seen Jesus make His hometown synagogue so angry that they tried to kill Him.

Jesus' Meal With Matthew Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

If the gospel is only successful among one stratum of society, it loses its punch. But if the gospel assembles people from both sides of the track (rich and poor), there is an intrigue to the gospel.

Jesus kept the wrong company. In the later decades of the nineteenth century, Hell’s Half-Acre was known as the red-light district of Fort Worth. While the area was cleared in the 1960s for the Tarrant County Convention Center, it was, as the name suggests, a rough and rowdy district. In the ...read more

Do You Want To Be Healed?

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023

In many situations in the Bible where Jesus encountered a person who was sick or had other infirmities, He asked if they wanted to be made well. Other cases the people requested a healing.
