The Battle For Success Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

Paul is convinced that failures can become successes. He knew this for he was one of the most successful failures in history. One of the great themes of literature and the Bible is this theme of success out of failure.

In the 35 years following the Civil War 3 success writers towered high above all others, and they became successful by writing about success. All 3 were ordained men. One of them was Russell Conwell who was the pastor of the Baptist Temple of Philadelphia. He delivered his famous lecture over ...read more

The Battle Within

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 11, 2021

If we want to be useful for God, we will need to learn to say "no" when our body calls for food or rest in ways that hold us back. When the devil tried to deter Jesus from his mission by tempting him to turn stones to bread when he was supposed to fast, Jesus stood strong.

Perhaps once or twice in a century a truly titanic battle occurs in which the history of earth hangs in the balance. The D-Day invasion might be one.

Battle In The Desert

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 3, 2025

Our exemplar in spiritual warfare is Jesus Christ

First Sunday of Lent 2025 Our Lord Jesus Christ was the Son of God. But He was, in human eyes, first the Son of Joseph and Mary, and since Joseph was a descendant of King David, their greatest king, Jesus was also called “Son of David.” That was important in Jewish eyes back in the first century, ...read more

The Battle Of The Mind

I found myself torn between two topics I felt led to preach on this week, but I believe the Lord used elder Jermaine’s last sermon to help me decide. I don’t know what part of that message resonated with you; but for me, the most powerful point that he brought out was this: Speaking of the great ...read more

The Unseen Battle Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

In addition to a prayer of repentance, Daniel also offered up a prayer for the release of the Jews from their captivity in Babylon. Yet, the answer to his prayer was delayed, and it had something to do with an unseen battle.

In Daniel chapter 9 (which I said would be our last message in this series) we see where Daniel took it on himself to intercede on behalf of all the people of Israel who were in captivity in Babylon; and Daniel was just one individual, yet the Lord heard his supplication. Daniel’s prayer reminds ...read more

Knowing that the Lord will get you strength when the enemy is trying to bring you down.

Some of the most devastating defeats in military history are the ones that are unexpected.

Likewise, we set ourselves up to ...read more
