    Habakkuk 3:1-16 teaches us two life-changing responses to adversity that are modeled for us by Habakkuk.

    Introduction I am currently preaching a series of sermons that I am calling, “Glory: The Character of God.” In this five-week-long series, I am exploring God’s self-revelation of himself to Moses in Exodus 34:6-7. God revealed several of his attributes to Moses in Exodus 34:6–7, which reads as ...read more

    It is amazing that God purposed to reconcile man unto Himself before man or woman was created.

    Reconciled to God by Joe Mack Cherry I. Opening A. God’s Word needs no embellishment. 1. As an aspiring songwriter years ago, I used to constantly work on hooks. 2.

    “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” [1] You have undoubtedly heard the story of the little boy who was colouring at the kitchen table.

    The Perfect Will Of God

     | 3,102 views

    In the book of Romans, the apostle Paul offers us profound insights into aligning our lives with God's divine purpose. Let us turn our attention to Romans 12:1-2, where we will uncover the significance of surrendering ourselves to God and experiencing His perfect will.

    I. A Call to Surrender (Romans 12:1) The passage begins with a powerful call to surrender. Paul urges us, by the mercies of God, to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God. This call goes beyond mere outward acts of worship. It encompasses our entire being—our thoughts, ...read more

    In the first miracle in Mark 5, we see Jesus set free the man who was possessed by many demons. We see the sad reaction of the people of that region and learn the sad truth that some people choose the swine over the Savior. We also learn that everyone has a testimony.

    Introduction: A. Let’s start with a question: Are there certain places you don’t like to go when it’s dark? 1. How about down in the basement? Out in the woods? Down a dark road? Or into a cemetery? 2. During my elementary school years, we lived on the northeast side of Syracuse and around the ...read more

    What happened before you cannot be fixed by you and nothing is owed by you other than not repeating the sins and errors of the past.

    Ezekiel 18:19 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live. 20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die.

    "The gifts and calling of God are without repentance." Romans 11:29.

    THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD. Romans 11:1-2a, Romans 11:29-32. What is causing Paul so much stress and distress is that Israel ‘have not all obeyed the gospel’ (cf. Romans 10:16). As we enter our present chapter, Paul is asking: Does this then mean that God has “cast away His people” (Romans ...read more

    The story of Jonah is so exciting that some people believe it is no more than a fairy tale filled with exaggerations.

    When it comes to exaggeration, we are reminded of the story of the little boy who was known for his problem with exaggeration. He came home from school one day and said, "Mom, I saw a dog as big as an elephant." The mother said, "Johnny, haven't I told you a billion times not ...read more

    Someone has said that Genesis 1:1 is read more than any verse in the Bible.

    This is especially true in January, since many begin the year with the determination to read the Bible through that year, but often that is as far as they get. However, if they only read this one verse, it will tell them a great deal about the God of the Bible. This one scripture is considered ...read more

    God is Omnipotent. When we say God is Omnipotent, we are talking about one of the attributes of God.

    This particular attribute means HE IS ALL POWERFUL! Illus: A young boy, traveling by airplane to visit his grandparents, sat beside a man who happened to be a seminary professor.
