     | 2,821 views

    God organized ... the Body of Christ. In I Corinthians 12 Paul tells us a lot about the intended work that God had for the Body of Christ. .... to be in the world but not of the world to change the world.

    BEYOND THESE WALLS Text: I Corinthians 12:12 -31 1 Corinthians 12:12-31  For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.  (13)  For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or ...read more

    Where Are You?

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,443 views

    Where are you? Are you hiding, afraid of God, because of sin in your life? Maybe you’re trying to cover your sin with the fig leaves of your good works.

    Introduction: Does this mean that God didn't know something? Not at all. Someone can easily ask a question to which they know the answer. Usually, the reason to do that is to point something out or teach something. Obviously, Adam and Eve had sinned. God asked, "Adam, where are you?" ...read more

     | 1,476 views

    Most Americans work and much of their life is controlled by someone else. There certainly is nothing wrong with that. This country could not operate unless people were willing to fill the jobs that are needed.

    Some jobs require a lot from folks who apply for them. It is essential to find qualified people to fill these jobs. Illus: A few months ago, there was an opening with the CIA for an assassin. Two men and a woman applied for this job. The day came for the final test to see which person would get ...read more

    Overcoming Opposition Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 25, 2022
     | 4,812 views

    There was a spirit of renewal and revival. Worship was renewed and sacrifices were made. But opposition lurked around the corner. When God’s people are doing God’s work opposition comes.

    How do you respond to opposition? What if someone is doing everything they can to sabotage your work for the Lord? When you can face and overcome opposition by depending on God’s strength you will ultimately accomplish great things. Does taking a stand for Christ necessarily mean that you will ...read more

     | 824 views

    We need a spiritual revival because our focus has shifted, our hearts are disheartened, our joy has lessened, and our spiritual work has been interrupted.

    Today, I want to talk about why we need revival as individuals and as a church. Revival is like a breath of fresh air that brings new life to our faith. It restores our passion for God, fills us with joy, and renews our commitment to serving Him. There are four main reasons why we need revival: our ...read more

    A Miraculous Birth Youth Sermon

     | 724 views

    Just like Mary, we are chosen to be dwelling places for God. However, we often face obstacles of unworthiness, unbelief, and unwillingness that hinder the Holy Spirit's work in our lives.

    In the Bible, Luke tells us that the Holy Spirit did something amazing in Mary. She became pregnant with Jesus, even though she was a virgin. She was just a regular girl, but she became the mother of Jesus. That's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, right? And just like Mary, God wants to do ...read more

    The Miracle Of God's Unseen Pathways

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 31, 2025
     | 285 views

    The miracle of God’s unseen pathways teaches us to trust Him when there is no visible option. He works behind the scenes, beyond human logic, and outside natural limitations.

    THE MIRACLE OF GOD'S UNSEEN PATHWAYS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 43:19 Supporting Texts: Exodus 14:21-22, Proverbs 3:5-6, Psalm 77:19, 2 Kings 7:3-9 INTRODUCTION: God specialises in making a way where there seems to be no way. His pathways are often hidden from human ...read more

    Do We Want Jesus To Go Away?

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 19, 2025
     | 417 views

    We must welcome the work of God into our lives to conform us into the image of Jesus. How are our actions and attitudes ways we are literally asking Jesus to go away?

    IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH “THE ANDY GRIFFITH” SHOW, YOU MAY REMEMBER THE LOVEABLE CHARACTER NAMED OTIS.

    Should Christians Celebrate The Feasts?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 27, 2025
     | 156 views

    The feasts reveal God’s salvation plan, prefiguring Christ’s redemptive work from sacrifice to resurrection, judgment, cleansing, and final restoration in God’s eternal kingdom.

    An Examination of Typology, Covenant, and Christological Fulfillment Introduction Few subjects within biblical theology reveal the unity of Scripture as beautifully as the Old Testament feasts. Often called “appointed times” (mo'adim, Lev. 23:2), these sacred days formed the backbone of ...read more

    Can God Use Me?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 23, 2025
     | 206 views

    God’s work does not depend on perfect people or ideal conditions, but on ordinary men and women who listen and respond faithfully when He speaks, even in uncertain times.

    There is a question that lives quietly beneath a great deal of spiritual activity. It rarely gets announced. It doesn’t usually show up in public prayer. It hides behind busyness, behind service, behind long familiarity with faith. Can God use me? Not “Does God exist?” Not “Is the Bible ...read more
