Sermons on Nations Filled With Wrath:

God Appoints His Servants

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

God said both Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus were His "servants." One brought national ruin; the other brought restoration. We need to trust that whoever is leading - king, prime minister, president - that God has placed them for a reason.

Leading up to the presidential election, we all had a favorite candidate whom we desired to win; someone who would represent our values. We envisioned how he would bring about prosperity and freedom to our nation; but if he lost, we envisioned the end of the world. Anyone of any political party ...read more

In A Manger

Contributed by Robert Dovenmuehle on Dec 25, 2012

Revive Me

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2016

People want blessings. They want renewal. But they are not often so willing to obey and to praise God who gives it to them. That’s why, sometimes, meetings that tell you how to be renewed and be filled in the Holy Spirit are packed to the doors ...

The Judge Othniel Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 14, 2018

Imitation Or Imitators? Series

Contributed by Jonathan Busch on Apr 13, 2003

Learning To Be Content

Contributed by Chris Surber on Sep 28, 2007
