    Faith In The Right Things

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 16, 2025
     | 381 views

    This morning, a Canaanite Woman barges into the house Jesus is praying seeking his help. Jesus comments seem cold, but her acknowledgement of Jesus authority, and her need for Grace brings about a great lesson in where we stand before God.

    Good Morning. Today, we have a tough lesson, in that it seems to show us a Jesus who is not the approachable loving friend we sometimes can imagine, but standoffish, aloof, and cold; similar to the way he talks to Mary in Cana before He turns water into wine. As the cartoon on the bulletin cover ...read more

    Compassion & Understanding Of The Lord Heals The Canaanite Woman’s Daughter

    Because we harbour differences, misunderstandings, resentments, and issues that we must sort out with the Lord, he may growl at us when we ask for a favour. But if our faith in God remains unshaken, the Lord will ensure that God will answer our cries for help.

    Today, I want to hear God speaking to us through the story of Jesus healing the Canaanite woman’s daughter, who was tormented by a demon. For many reasons, this is a unique and fascinating story. For starters, this story, which is placed in the region of Tyre and Sidon, is among the two stories ...read more

    In His Mighty Hand

    Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Jun 12, 2025
     | 422 views

    The mighty hand of the Lord delivers and redeems, raises, promotes, and exalts the humble, dashes one's enemies, and puts a new song in the victor’s mouth. It makes people great and strong, and gives wealth and honor.

    Scripture Reading: Heb. 10:35-37 “So do not throw away your confidence; it holds a great reward. You need to persevere so that after you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised. For “In just a little while, He who is coming will come and will not delay…” Text: Matt. ...read more

    The Heart Matters Most - Lessons From Matthew 15 Series

     | 417 views

    GOD cares more about the condition of your heart than the traditions you keep. GOD desires genuine inner purity and authentic faith, not religious performance. True righteousness comes from a transformed heart, not outward tradition.

    A look at some of the crumbs that fell from the Master’s table.

    He was her last hope. She had spent months going from doctor to doctor, specialist to specialist only to be told the same thing, “I can’t do anything, I’m sorry.” She had tried every kind of alternative medicines, herbs, health food and vitamins and none of it worked. As much as she tried, as ...read more

    How did Jesus deal with "Traditon." How can we apply His teaching to our practices today?

    The Trouble with Tradition Mark 7:1–13 INTRODUCTION We obtain biblical authority from three ways: 1. Direct Command, 2. Divine Example and 3. Necessary Inference. When we come across anything for which we do not have a command, example or cannot infer proper action from clear biblical ...read more

    The secret of God’s blessings is to lie low at the feet of Jesus and cry our for mercy! If all you ask for is crumbs off the table, how can God refuse?

    Friends if you listened carefully to the gospel story, it appears as though Jesus was not very inclined to heal the daughter of the Syro-Phoenician woman who came begging him for a miracle. It also seemed as though Jesus had enough and just wanted to get away because scripture tells us that he ...read more

    Disregarding Tradition And Taboo (Matthew 15:1-39)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 20, 2025
     | 116 views

    In this chapter, we read about the Lord Jesus’ encounter with the Pharisees yet again, and of His mercy to a Gentile woman whose daughter was possessed by a demon.

    Coming from Jerusalem, the Pharisees asked Jesus why His disciples did not perform the traditional ritual of washing one’s hands before eating. This ceremony had been established by the “elders” and had nothing to do with hygiene alone, but was instead an elaborate ritual that involved not only ...read more

    Ever wonder why Jesus is silent before you? Today’s sermon will guide you to His answer.

    Hi, thank you for looking at this sermon. I hope it helps. Please do not say the sermon did not help you just because you did not like the style or could not use the entire message for your own needs. I have discovered a few souls automatically hit the ’did not help me’ button if the message they ...read more

    This sermon addresses how Jesus ministered to the Canaanite woman when others, including Jesus’ own disciples, would have just brushed her off.

    JESUS AND THE CANAANITE WOMAN Text: Matthew 15:10-28 It seems that Jesus was indifferent toward this Canaanite woman who was in need of His help. Matthew 15:24 could give one that perception on the surface: "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel" (Matthew 15:24 RSV). ...read more
