Have You Confirmed Your Reservation In Heaven? Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Sep 5, 2013

Jesus is preparing a place for us. But don’t imagine a private room with walls and a door you can lock. There will be no need for locks in Heaven. Think about sharing a big house with all the other Heavenly Family members—more like a bed and breakfast.

INTRODUCTION In a cemetery in Indiana there’s a tombstone that has an epitaph with the intent to make people prepare for death. It says, “Consider, friend, as you pass by. As you are now, so once was I. As I am now, you soon shall be. So prepare, my friend, to follow me.” Someone ...read more

Living At A New Address

The Hospitality Of Mary And Martha Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 14, 2017

When Jesus entered the house, He began to preach to those that were there, and to those who came along with him. Martha was extremely busy getting everything ready for the meal, but her sister Mary set down at Jesus feet to listen to what He said.

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 16, 2023

The lesson gives every believer the assurance that Faith in God will work for any one regardless of race, creed or color. This Gentile woman was an outsider, considered no more than a puppy or a house pet, yet her faith made this miracle possible. Faith moves beyond limitations.

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 30, 2025

A house with a solid foundation can withstand a disaster. Building a foundation is hard work, but it’s well worth it. It’s the difference between what lasts and what’s a waste of time and resources. Believers Called to a Method, a Mission and a Ministry for Kingdom Building.

Sermon – Believers Called to a Method, a Mission and a Ministry Luke 6:46-49 “So why do you keep calling me ‘Lord, Lord!’ when you don’t do what I say?

This Blood's For You

Contributed by Johnny Creasong on Nov 5, 2007

A Trail of BLOOD runs from the Garden of Eden to your house! When we sin, we treat Jesus as if he had never lived and never died, while all the while He shed His blood to make us just as if we had never sinned!

(NIV) A Trail of BLOOD runs from the Garden of Eden to Bossier City! Since Adam and Eve bit the serpent’s bait in the Garden and God provided ...read more

"In The Hands Of The Potter..." By Dr. Winson Butler

Contributed by Winson Butler on Jul 9, 2005

I heard a Pastor once say "It don’t take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep." It shouldn’t take someone long to comprehend the message to Jeremiah from God as he went down to the Potter’s house either. Let see it together!

Introduction Jeremiah, The weeping prophet. What a man. What a message. What a MESS! The nation was in ruins. God wanted it turned around. Jeremiah was his man. More than once God encouraged Jeremiah with Heavenly truths from Earthly lessons. The message was simple and God reveals His truth to ...read more

Thorns Of Life

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on May 17, 2011

There are different kinds of vessels in the house of God. So you will do well to examine what kind of vessel you are. Let me clear one thing before we go deeper into this message: God will not accept any excuse from anyone for not being a useful vessel.

Our message this week, is what I call “The thorns of life.” Genesis 3:17-19 says, “And unto Adam He said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee saying, thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy ...read more
