    It's God's fault? Really? There is no fuiture in sticking with that story,

    Don't Blame Father God!

     | 6,531 views

    Psalm 46:4-7 shows us a Biblical picture of a river flowing from the Holy Place of God. We find that God is our pleasure; He is our Life, He is our Power.

    “A River to Make a City Glad” Psalm 46:4-7, Part 2 God is our Protector We saw last week that God alone is our shelter and fortress for any and all calamities which attack us externally, but He is also an internal strength, whereby we are always renewed as we turn to Him. He is an ...read more

     | 42,661 views

    Luke 15 contains three parables about lost items. In each story, extreme measures are taken to seek the lost; when each is found, there is great rejoicing. These stories are pictures of how God seeks us and the joy heaven experiences when we are found.

    What Makes Heaven Happy? Luke 15:1-10 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION What are the greatest chapters in the Bible? If I compiled a top five list, I think Psalm 23 would be near the top, along with Romans 8, and the third chapter of John. I would also add Luke 15 to the short list of the greatest ...read more

    Why should we seek God, His Kingdom, His righteousness, and His provision? We seek God through His Word, Prayer, Fellowship, and Worship. We seek God first, for He being our Father, is our ever-present loving provider who knows all your needs.

    You know, people fall in love, have children, celebrate birthdays, take trips and sit on the porch on summer evenings, while listening to crickets. But inevitably, and to everyone, problems do come. Relationships flounder, jobs are lost, money gets tight, kids rebel, and through it all, even in the ...read more

    There is a serious tone God uses with his people who He loves. This message is from Malachi. His name appropriately means messenger. He is delivering an “oracle.”

    Giving that honors God Malachi 1:1-14 There is a story that comes from Clear Creek Baptist College of the Appalachian Mountains. They train preachers in the Kentucky Mountains.

    While Friday was the day of crucifixion, Sunday is the key piece to the story. Jesus' resurrection occurs on the first day of the week and makes all the difference. If there was no resurrection, none of this would matter.

    This message looks at Jeremiah's imagery of God as the Potter. If we fail to submit to the Potter and remain in His hands, then the Lord will stop shaping us and let us alone. But when He lets us alone, we are in a very fragile state!

    There is a well-known hymn entitled, “Have Thine Own Way.” The first line of this hymn says, “Have Thine own way, Lord! . . . Thou art the potter, I am the clay! Mold me and make me after Thy will, while I am waiting, yielded and still.”(1) When Adelaide Pollard wrote the words to this hymn she ...read more

    What A Difference Jesus Makes

    Contributed by Monte Brown on Feb 6, 2012
     | 5,346 views

    The truth is, man is a sinner, lost and undone, separated from God by a wide chasm of sin. He needs something done in his life that he will never be able to do for himself. He needs what Jesus and Jesus alone can do.

    Introduction Illustration: An illiterate couple had just been saved. They met with a group of believers who dressed alike. The men wore red shirts while engaged in a certain project, so the woman made one for her husband. He came home after the meeting, however, with a look of disappointment ...read more

    In a busy world, where do we put God in the priorities? This is the first in a series of "seeking first" & prioritizing our lives.

    The 3 R’s Matthew 6:33 Matthew started this verse with a conjunction (joins words or groups of words within a sentence)“but.” I believe it is inserted here and a central focus on how we can live what He gave to us on what is popularly known as “the sermon on the mount.” Sounds like a classroom ...read more
