Winning In The Now

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Aug 16, 2020

We must never forget, no matter what we may ever be told or think we see, we win! We win, in the end! And I would tell you just as important as the news is we win in the end! We also, win in the now!

Winning in the Now! I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus, No Turning Back, No Turning Back... Those are the words to an amazing hymn. Maybe you’ve never sang those words, but if you have...what do they mean to you? To me, they ...read more

Our God Cannot Be Stopped Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jul 19, 2019

When I became a Christian, I quickly began to realize that my life was never going to be the same. And one of the ways that my life changed, is now my life is lived on two-time schedules: my time schedule and God’s time schedule.

But For The Love Of God

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jul 18, 2020

We often hear people says "For the love of God....." when they are expressing frustrations. In this message I hope to convince Christians that this statement should never be made in frustration, but with a sense of awe as we reflect on God's love for us.

But For The Love Of God Scriptures: John 3:16; Matthew 4:8-10; 1 Timothy 2:3-4 The last time that I spoke to you I delivered a message about knowing THE Name. The name everyone will bow to and confess is THE Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. In that message I stressed the importance and ...read more

Guilty As Sin Series

Contributed by Jefferson Williams on Jul 30, 2020

This first beatitude is the foundation for the other eight. Once we learn that we can not hop high enough for God’s holiness, we can never be good enough, then the fact that God has extended us grace and mercy become reasons for worship and thankfulness.

Less Is More

Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 5, 2023

Prosperity gospel is a very popular Christian movement today. It states that God will always bless you with good health and material wealth if you ask Him. That's FALSE!! Good health is NOT guaranteed and material wealth will NEVER get you into heaven.

One of the largest and more popular movements in the last 30+ years in the Christian Church is a form of theology called prosperity gospel. Let’s define what it is first. According to the website, Wikipedia; prosperity theology is a religious belief among some Protestant Christians that financial ...read more

Satanic Legal Grounds And Access Points - Sexual Perversion Series

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Apr 4, 2023

Sexual pleasure was never created by Satan, but he has hijacked and perverted it to advance his diabolical agendas of destroying mankind. I am taking this much time on this access point because this is one of Satan`s major tripping points against majority of humanity.

Neither give place to the devil. ( Ephesians 4:27) One of the outstanding trademarks of every form of false religion, cults, occultic, and secret societies, or satanic group is sexual perversion. Sexual perversion is one of Satan`s major access point and weapon of mass destruction. He used it to ...read more

Artificial People Living Artificial Lives - Message Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 13, 2023

Do people live artificial lives because they are artificial, OR they are artificial because they live artificial lives? Olives will never be produced from a fig tree. The world is full of artificial people. What about Christians – are you living an artificial life that does not please God?

Five Secrets For Winners – Philippians 3:12-21 Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Apr 2, 2022

We need to stop and remind ourselves of who we are: Believers in Jesus who are serving him in a marathon, not a sprint, toward his kingdom. Therefore, let us never forget, or even minimize, who were are or what our “upward call” is.

Paul the apostle must have been a sports fan. I say that because he uses a lot of terminology in the scriptures related to sports. He says – We don't wrestle with just flesh and blood. That's a wrestling illustration. He says – We fight the good fight. That's a boxing illustration. But ...read more

God’s Growth Scale → Little Children To Fathers 1john 2:12-14 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 5, 2022

Salvation must not bypass conviction and repentance. Never lessen the importance of assurance in any Christian life, especially regarding a young Christian. If you leave them without assurance, you leave them vulnerable. Children, young men and fathers get a talking to!

Autumn's Colorful Trees Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Nov 8, 2021

Autumn: is a time to reflect on the Majesty of all that God has made. Colorful trees warn us about following the wrong teachers, the Creator who paints such a beautiful creation also paints our lives, and God stands never-changing strong in the middle of change.

Peter The Son Of Lightning Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

Peter made mistakes, but he was not stupid. He never stuck with a mistake when he saw it for what it was. He was a great man just because he could retreat as fast as he advanced when he saw he was going the wrong direction.

Some years back a young girl was caught out in a thunder storm as she rode her bicycle. She made it to the top of the hill and then headed down as fast as she could go. When she got home she told a strange tale. Every time there was a flash of lightning blue flames ran across her handle bars. Had ...read more

Practicing The Presence Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

Theologically Jesus is always present with us, but practically we experience His absence because we are not aware of that presence. He promised He would never leave us nor forsake us, but we need to become aware of His being ever present.

An atheist and a Christian were debating the value of prayer, and the atheist said, "I never pray." The Christian said, "But you must have prayed at sometime in your life." "Yes," he admitted. "I did pray once. I was on a hunting trip in the Yukon and got ...read more

The Foundation For Favor Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 24, 2021

Often events and circumstances in life take us by surprise. At times life is going according to plan, and then without warning, difficulty arrives. Thankfully, God is omniscient, knowing all things. He is never taken by surprise and always works according to His divine will.

The Foundation for Favor Esther 2: 19-23 As we take a moment to consider our lives, we discover they are made up of varied series of events. Often one event serves to prepare us for a future event. At times, several events tend to blend together and create a major event. Viewing life from this ...read more
