Fathers - Be Zealous

Contributed by Allan Quak on Aug 29, 2019

This 2019 Father's Day message looks at the meaning of the Hebrew word kinah - which describes the jealousy or zeal of the Lord. In Proverbs 6:30-35 we see that husbands are also those who should be kinah. The call for fathers to have this character of God has very significant applications.

Losing Our Unction Series

Contributed by Donald Mcculley on Mar 19, 2019

One of Satan’s aims is to trip up God’s child so that we lose our power (unction), witness, etc… To illustrate this point Paul presents an O.T. study. It’s the story of God’s own nation. They serve as an example (warning) (v.6, 11).

LOSING OUR UNCTION I CORINTHIANS 10:1-13 INTRODUCTION: “Unction” = anointing. Fervency in speaking or behaving. Persuasion. See 9:27. What was Paul fearful of? Not losing his salvation, but his unction = divine authority/power/persuasion/influence! If that left him he would have nothing ...read more

Being Like Noah: Living Righteously In The Last Days

Contributed by Christian Jones on Jun 23, 2023

Today, I invite you to open your Bibles to Genesis 6:9 as we explore the life of Noah and draw valuable lessons from his example. In a world that increasingly distances itself from God's righteousness, we find inspiration in Noah's faithfulness and obedience.

Point 1: Walk with God (Genesis 6:9) Noah's defining characteristic was his unwavering commitment to walk with God. In a world filled with wickedness, Noah found favor because he lived in close fellowship with his Creator. Similarly, in the last days, we are called to cultivate an intimate ...read more
