    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,255 views

    One way success is found is in praying for others, no matter how difficult life is.

    “TARRYING AT THE THRONE” Matthew 2:13-18 As a pastor in the Free Methodist Church for nearly 18 years, and your pastor for the last 4½ years, it is time for me to come front & center regarding God’s will for our church.

    When Christmas Came To Nazareth

    Contributed by Abraham Shanklin on Jun 24, 2003
    based on 17 ratings
     | 4,090 views

    We followed Him to Bethlehem, we followed Him to Egypt, we now follow Him to Nazareth. Incidentally, when was the last time you made it a habit, a practice to follow Jesus?

    WHEN CHRISTMAS CAME TO NAZARETH Scripture Reference: Matthew 2: 20-23 INTRODUCTION Two weeks ago we went to Bethlehem where Jesus was born. Joseph and Mary traveled the 5-day, 90-mile journey because Caesar Augustus, the Roman Emperor at that time, decreed that a census should be taken throughout ...read more

    Finding Out Who Really Cares

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 31, 2003
    based on 45 ratings
     | 4,251 views

    Who really cares about you? Not those who, like Herod, are so scared they will do anything to save themselves. Rather those like the wise men, who give gifts for the future, or like Joseph, who make sacrifices for your protection. For Epiphany.

    Some people have friends. Some people have enemies. Some people have acquaintances. But everybody has somebody you do business with. The people you do business with -- usually, that’s not an intimate relationship. It’s a distant relationship, limited just to transactions. Everybody deals with ...read more

    The Shadow Of The Cross Over The Incarnation

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 13, 2001
    based on 74 ratings
     | 4,756 views

    The full significance of the Incarnation is only seen when its dark side is understood - in the Sign of a Sword to Mary’s heart, the Symbol of Myrrh as an offering from the wise men and the Sorrow of Rachael over her dead children.

    If the message of the Incarnation, the coming of Jesus into human experience, had to be condensed into a single sentence it couldn’t be bettered than the words of John: "He came to his own home and his own people received him not" (1:11). In the opening verses of his Gospel, John had already ...read more

    A Father Of Vision

    Contributed by Brian Atwood on May 31, 2001
    based on 140 ratings
     | 8,599 views

    Joseph was not the biological Father of Jesus, but he certainly was a good example of the CHARACTERISTICS OF A VISIONARY FATHER.

    The first two chapters of Matthew’s gospel contain five different dreams or visions. FOUR OF THESE DIVINE DREAMS WERE GIVEN TO JOSEPH - THE EARTHLY FATHER OF JESUS. It is clear to see that Joseph was a father of vision - God’s vision! Joseph had a particular responsibility among men. He would ...read more

    3 - Gold, Frankincense, And Myrrh

    Contributed by Sterling Franklin on Jan 22, 2002
    based on 69 ratings
     | 18,329 views

    The Gifts the Wise Men brought were a symbol of Jesus’ Life - He would be our King, High Priest, and would die for the payment of our sins.

    Herod was king of Jerusalem when Jesus was born in Bethlehem (means “House of Bread.”) Bethlehem, also known as Ephrath, was about 5 miles south of Jerusalem, and when wise men came to Herod asking where the REAL King of the Jews was, Herod got pretty jealous and tense, not to mention angry. ...read more

    Early in Jesus’ life, Satan loses, and prophecies are fulfilled. So it goes throughout Jesus’ life, and in our lives today.

    Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23 NOW WHAT? Another year is quickly drawing to a close. The holiday season is just about over.
