    Route To Great Awakening

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,096 views

    We can go on living as though this world were everything, and there is no eternal world or great God to whom we are accountable. But when Christ returns will each one of us account for your life with joy?

    Opening illustration: God awakened me when I went to work in the Middle East. Till then I was just a lukewarm and laidback Christian. I saw the great need for the Gospel of Christ to be proclaimed to the so many lost souls there. They had no idea that they were perishing and there was only one way ...read more

    Sermon National Day Of Prayer, When The Church Prays

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 10, 2024
     | 1,375 views

    No amount of preaching, teaching, singing, music, or activity will bring forth the genuine power and presence of the Holy Spirit like the fervent prayers of the righteous. Prayer changes things! When we work, we work; when we pray, God works!

    Subject - Effective Fervent Prayer Invites Divine Intervention Scripture - Acts 12:5-11 “So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him. The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries ...read more

     | 2,743 views

    Today, I want to talk about having a confident faith because a confident faith will kill worry. A confident faith quiets our minds as the Lord whispers to our souls, “fear not.”

    When or how many times have you worried about something that turned out to be no big deal? I’m reminded of what one person said. “Don’t tell me the worry doesn’t do any good. Almost everything I worry about never happens.” There's a new word that we are hearing more and more these days ...read more

    In this continuing study of the Restoration of God, we look at what sin ruined, the results of that; how the Lord identified with those results, and now what God has restored. This time our theme is SEPARATION. Sin caused separation.

    Waiting for something that you know is going to happen, but you don't know just when, can be a difficult period in your life. So what do you do? Twiddle your thumbs? Do you not start to do something, afraid that there won't be enough time to finish it? It can be a quandary.

    The heart of God yearned for repentance and Israel's return from idolatry. Israel was carried away in judgement, and Judah did not learn. It was so joined to idolatry that God kept likening it to an adulterous wife He would receive back if the nation repented. Faithless, treacherous Judah.

    They’ll say that this verse cannot be applied to us today, but my response to that is, “Doesn’t the Bible tell us that everything that is recorded in the past was given to us today as an example?”
