    Training And Discipline Series

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Jan 8, 2013
     | 4,896 views

    One thing that has been an arduous task for me is in disciplining these kids who have been used to an easy-go life and loitering the streets the whole day; they find it tedious to be confined in one place.

    Training! 1 Corinthians 9:25 “Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.” Someone said: Training and Discipline is what modern believers need the most but want the ...read more

    On the contrary, we have illness to endure, uncertainty, angst, fear and delay lurking in every corner of our life. How do you survive those occasions?

    Take your eyes off the clock Ruth 2:7”And she said, 'Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.' So she came and has continued from morning until now, though she rested a little in the house." Imagine that the world suddenly became simpler, cleaner, corrupt free, ...read more

    We need strong faith to combat severe famine! Friend, I’m not going to tell you that you would never face problems and things will always be cozy and rosy all the time, but instead I say today, even in the midst of calamity, we need to collect ourselves

    Fear not! Abraham – Part 2 Genesis 12:10”And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.” We need strong faith to combat severe famine! Friend, I’m not going to tell you that you would never ...read more

    The devil knows that he can not hurt God, but he can trip us up to hurt God!!

    Ephesians 4:27-nor give place to the devil That is what we have been looking at, Paul has been explaining to us, some of the ways we can let the devil use things in our life to trip us up and become a stumbling block to others!! When two guys are fighting in a ...read more

    The Finite And The Infinite

    Contributed by Ron Hietsch on Sep 11, 2014
     | 3,886 views

    Many see the Bible as a rule book – what do I need to do? It is not about what we need to do it is about what Christ has done for us. Christ has unlimited –that is infinite – forgiveness available for us.

    . Forgiving someone can be especially difficult for many of us. Peter thought he was being generous with seven times. After all some of the Rabbis taught that one needed to forgive the same sin only three times. Peter was, in his way, trying to be obedient to Jesus who said that our ...read more

    Abiding In The Vine

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 7, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 15,718 views

    We are nourished by His Word, and cultivate our relationship with Him through prayer.

    ABIDING IN THE VINE. John 15:1-16. In Psalm 80:8-16 Israel is poignantly portrayed as a vine which has spread throughout the whole land, only to be torn down, devoured and burnt at the time of the Exile. The vineyard motif is again taken up in Isaiah 5:1-7, where a moral reason is given for ...read more

    Hardship And Struggle Are Satanic Tools.

    Contributed by James Linders on May 8, 2015
     | 4,667 views

    God does NOT desire misfortune,hardships,suffering,decease,evil,poverty and death for those who love Him. We OFTEN make the remark that GOD is responsible for our pain and suffering, because He is testing us. How can He be? SATAN is the culprit!!

    Job 2:7-8 (NIV) "So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head. Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes." Job, a man who loved God and kept His ...read more

    A Storm At Sea, And A Question Of Jesus' Identity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 25, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,932 views

    How can Jesus sleep on in calm and peaceful repose when chaos, fear, disorder, panic and confusion are all around? Does He not care?

    “WHO IS THIS?” Mark 4:35-41. There is an old joke that asks why the chicken crossed the road? The answer is obvious: to get to the other side. I suppose the same could be said of crossing the sea, crossing to the other side of the world, or crossing to a region such as the territory of the ...read more

    The efficacy of the blood of Jesus

    PLEAD the blood of JESUS “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death”. Revelation 12:11: There is a power that supersedes every other power. The mystery of the power in the Blood of Jesus is one ...read more

    The Act Of Love Of A Forgiven Woman, And The Inclusivity Of Jesus' Ministry.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 23, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,177 views

    Nurturing our relationship with Jesus is an essential part of our Christian formation.

    1. A FORGIVEN WOMAN’S ACT OF LOVE. Luke 7:36-50. This incident ties in with two earlier episodes, illustrating Jesus’ conquest over sickness (Luke 7:1-10), death (Luke 7:11-17) - and now sin. The unnamed woman is identified as “a sinner” (Luke 7:37; Luke 7:39; Luke 7:47). This tells us nothing ...read more

    Reflection D.3 / Does God Have A Purpose In Coronavirus? Revelation. The Rider On The White Horse.

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jun 8, 2020
     | 1,772 views

    Who is the rider on the white horse in Revelation 6? Some say Jesus, some say the antichrist! And there are many other suggestions. We look at the possibilities.

    Today we meet ‘the four horsemen’. The first of the horsemen is described as follows (Rev. 6:2): And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer. Who is this? Why is he conquering? When will it happen? ...read more

    Fruit

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jun 10, 2020
     | 6,469 views

    There can be no fruit until there are roots. The fruit is a result of the roots. No roots, no fruit.

    How would you define fruit? What is fruit? W.E. Vines says, “Fruit is the visible expressions of power working inwardly and invisibly. The character of the fruit being evidence of the character of the power producing it.” God has some established principles, and this is one of them I want to share ...read more

    Are we weeds or wheat? No one is completely either one.

    Weeds Matthew 13: 24 - 30 Intro: A man was stopped at a traffic light and when the light turned green he was distracted and didn’t budge. The lady in the car behind him started honking her horn again and again pounding on the steering wheel. Just as the light turned yellow, the man wakened from ...read more

    Judge Not

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 22, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,767 views

    Some thoughts on judgment and prayer, and the Golden Rule.

    JUDGE NOT. Matthew 7:1-12. When Jesus says, “Judge not” (Matthew 7:1), He is not bidding us suspend our faculty of discernment. If that was the case, then He would not have gone on to describe certain people as “dogs” or “swine” (Matthew 7:6)! How could we make that identification without ...read more
