    A lifestyle of worship always results in relationship, repentance, rulership, and renewal.

    iWorship Part 3: How iWorship Icebreaker: Quick. What comes to mind when you hear the word, “Worship?” Probably “music,” right? But you know, music is just one method we’re supposed to use to worship God. But since last week we focused so extensively on music, I want to share some pretty ...read more

    In this lesson, we see Elijah stand all alone against the prophets of Baal and Asherah. We learn many things from Elijah's example, including the difference one person can make.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a man who was solo skydiving for the very first time. 1. He had taken all the lessons and now it was time for his first solo jump. 2. He leapt out of the plane and as he was falling he panicked and couldn’t remember how to open his parachute. 3. As he ...read more

    Standing Close To The Lightning Strike

    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,471 views

    God will get our attention and force us to make choices, despite our desire to avoid decisions or our wish to be secular. When the lightning strikes it may be painful but it will be about grace.

    You can most certainly expect God to attract your attention. I cannot tell you exactly how He will do it, but I do know that He will do it. He will attract your attention. Many of us face a spiritual issue called inattention. Distraction. Inattention. We are not paying attention to what God is ...read more

    This message is a call to repentance, and for spiritual purity and passion in hearts and lives of God's people. We've lost our fire for God, and we desperately need the fire of God rekindled.

    Lord, Let The Fire Fall Text: I Kings 18:21-24 Intro: Ever since the day man discovered it, fire has been a useful tool. But man soon discovered that fire could be both friend and foe. Not only could it provide light and warmth and be used to cook food, but it could also do great harm. ...read more

    One Plus God Equals Victory

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 27, 2016
     | 5,522 views

    Elijah is an amazing example of what happens when believers pray with authority, when they come to God and ask him to do something that glorifies him.

    Have you ever been in a spiritual battle where you thought that you were on the losing side? Well, you’re not alone. The Bible is full of stories of God’s people and their struggle with spiritual battles. Often they thought that God had abandoned them, when in reality he was always with ...read more

     | 15,092 views

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more

    It takes courage to move in the will of God. Elijah's faith brought the courage necessary to face the evil of his day. We learns lessons for our own day from Elijah's experience with King Ahab.

    When last we encountered our hero, Elijah, he was performing miracles for a widow and her son in Zarephath. Here’s an interesting note I need to make as we begin because today we’ll see another miracle Elijah performs. There are basically three clusters of miracles in the bible. ...read more

    Altars in the Old Testament were geographical places built to worship God. Altars today are spiritual places within people. This sermon looks at the significance of rebuilding the altars of our hearts and the blessing it brings.

    Last week we looked at Samson. Samson was physically strong but in some ways he was spiritually weak. We, too can be strong in some areas but weak in others. Today, we'll look at Elijah. He was bold and courageous...well, most of the time.

    JUST LIKE US (part four) Last week we looked at the example of Samson. When Samson was born he was given a special Nazirite vow. He couldn't drink alcohol or even grape juice. And he couldn't cut his hair. These conditions were to indicate that he would be noticeably set apart for a ...read more
