    Seems as if evrything drains us, but God has a plan that we learn to love praise. Praise is a debt we owe the mighty God we serve.

    New Year's Day 1989: Jonah, running from his responsibility, fell asleep. It might have been the sleep of a rationalized conscience; or depression. But a greater than Jonah is here, Christ, who can heal both conscience and soul.

    It's not easy to stay out of the storms, no matter what escape you plan. It's just not easy to keep from getting rained on and buffeted around when the storm is coming, no matter what means you use to take shelter. This week, on the afternoon of the sudden squall, I had gone home to attend to my ...read more

    Abraham to Moses, via Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. And the parents of Moses.

    FAITH, SACRIFICE AND SPRINKLING. Hebrews 11:17-28. If we are ever to understand what a terrible, what a grave thing sin is, it is found in this: that ‘Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins’ (cf. Hebrews 9:22). We have already learned that the blood of bulls and of goats ...read more

    Faith Is A Journey Of Sacrifice

     | 7,508 views

    Our Heavenly Father has provided the lamb just as He provided a ram for Abraham instead of sacrificing Isaac. We are to give over our children spiritually to God as a gift of faith.

    Faith is a Journey of Sacrifice Psalm 118:6-7 Psalm 23 To be a person of faith is to be a person familiar with sacrifice. At this time of Lent we see that truth magnified in the life of our Savior. Jesus the Son of God came to save sinners and call them to repentance and forgiveness. Jesus ...read more

    At the very moment when Jewish authorities were plotting to kill Him, Gentiles began to desire His attention. The Greeks who came to Jesus were Gentiles, not Grecian Jews, who had become converts to Judaism.

    -Monday- Jerusalem The Glory of His Sacrifice (Is. 6:10) John 12:20-50 20 Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast. 21 Then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22 Philip came and told ...read more

    Why did God have the Israelites offer sacrifices? Was He hungry? And does God call on us to make sacrifices in the New Testament era?

    There’s a true story of a church that had a parking problem. Right next door was a store that was closed on Sunday. So they asked the owner if they could use his parking lot. He said that they could use it for 51 Sundays out of the year but it would be chained off one week. They were happy with ...read more

    He is the Good Shepherd who seeks out the lost sheep, and dies for His flock.

    THE SELF- SACRIFICE OF THE SHEPHERD. John 10:11-18. In the fourth “I am” saying of John’s Gospel, Jesus appears as the Good Shepherd who gives His life for the sheep (John 10:11). Thus He is made known to His sheep (John 10:14). In John 10 Jesus effectively castigated the Pharisees for their ...read more

    The Sacrifices God Is Pleased With Series

    Contributed by Isaiah Banjo on Nov 30, 2020
     | 6,427 views

    It is “through Jesus” that your sacrifices can be acceptable. Anything short of that is totally unacceptable. The only person God told that he is pleased with was Jesus. When a man does not listen to Jesus, such a man cannot please God.

    Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of Praise – the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices, God is pleased. (NIV) Hebrews 13:15-16 Quite a lot to identify in this scripture. 1. The ...read more

    "Love, Devotion And Sacrifice” Series

    Contributed by William Tan Yh on Jul 16, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,107 views

    When we realize how much Jesus has forgiven us, we will develop a deep love for him. When Jesus hung on the cross, he was looking forward to the joy of saving us so that we can be with him forever. Therefore, let us reciprocate his love by growing in our love for him daily.

    Dear Brothers and sister in Christ, I entitled my sharing “Love, Devotion and Sacrifice”. Have you wondered why there are some Christians who seems to be so in love with Jesus? Do you wish to be like them? May the sharing be used by the Holy Spirit to bring us into a deeper love relationship with ...read more

    In God’s judgment, there is provision and mercy. What we find now in this little section of Scripture today is nothing more than amazing. In these 4 verses, we have the necessary elements for salvation. So as soon as man falls, God sets in motion the means of redemption.

    Mercy Instead Of Sacrifice

     | 2,898 views

    The Pharisees criticized Jesus for eating with tax collectors. They thought they were better than Matthew, as they went around acting holy. Outward show doesn’t determine a person’s relationship with God. It's about the heart.

    This morning I am going to touch on the subject of “hypocrisy.” It’s difficult to preach on this subject matter because none of us are without some form of hypocrisy in our life. Jesus told us not to point out the splinter in our brother’s eye until we have removed the log in our own eye (Matthew ...read more
