    Thanks Be To God!

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Nov 20, 2004
    based on 30 ratings
     | 6,901 views

    On three occasions, the Apostle Paul exclaims, “Thanks be to God!” I would like us to look at what the Apostle Paul was thankful to God for in that we might reflect that same thankfulness in our own lives this Thanksgiving.

    “THANKS BE TO GOD” 1 CORINTHIANS 15:50-57 2 CORINTHIANS 2:12-14 2 CORINTHIANS 9:10-15 INTRODUCTION...

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jul 22, 2004
    based on 25 ratings
     | 3,183 views

    Jesus gives us a challenge He gave about the Pharisees. He wants us to show mercy and love to those who need salvation, not just go through the motions of our own religious beliefs

    How to Separate Ourselves From the Sins of the Pharisees Jesus said to them, "Be careful and on your guard against the leaven (teaching, corruption, hypocrisy) of the Pharisees and Saducees." (Matthew 16:6) Jesus said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the eyes of men. But God ...read more

    "The Tears Of An Apostle"

    Contributed by Mark Hensley on Jan 16, 2003
    based on 54 ratings
     | 12,935 views

    The Apostle Paul cried! It’s important that we understand the emotional and spiritual stresses that brought him tears. In doing so we can understand what should cause our own concern, and tears!

    Southern Hills Baptist Church January 19th 2003 “The Tears of an Apostle” Philippians 3: 18-21 By Pastor Mark Hensley “For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, ...read more

    Hagar’s Dilemma

    based on 20 ratings
     | 25,659 views

    Most of us have experienced some type of dilemma and we’ve all dealt with dilemmas or circumstance or our own making. But the God of Glory is more than able to hear, help and to bring us out.

    Gen. 21:1-3, 8-10,14-20 Hagar’s Dilemma H Lee Clay The word “dilemma” is defined by the American Heritage Dictionary as meaning, “A situation that requires a choice between options that are or seem equally unfavorable;and a problem that seems to defy a satisfactory solution” All of us at some ...read more

    The Problem With Power Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 21, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,953 views

    When we draw close to Jesus sometimes the aura of His power makes us feel powerful on our own. Luke 9 teaches us lessons on the real source of power and the real cost of discipleship.

    What’s the famous line from American Express? Not Karl Malden saying "Don’t leave home without it" but this: "membership has its privileges." It was supposed to suggest that special things await you and only you if you get this card. The slogan is successful because it appeals to something in us ...read more

    Leaky Disciples

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 17, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,922 views

    Dated 1988; post-revival message. We do not retain the Spirit after a period of excitement because we have not counted the cost, we are victims of low self-esteem, or we are not our own persons.

    Nothing is more annoying than to be trying to transport some liquid in a leaky vessel. You think you’ve got whatever it is all secure and ready for use, and then all of a sudden you find out it has leaked and drained allover the place ... and nothing is more disturbing and frustrating. When I ...read more

    A Little Bit Of Sin

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 25, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,703 views

    The danger with a little bit of sin, is that we can sin just a little. However, we must know that there are grave consequences when we choose to follow our own desires rather than following the will of God.

    “The angels urged Lot, saying, ‘Up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be swept away in the punishment of the city.’ But he lingered. So the men seized him and his wife and his two daughters by the hand, the Lord being merciful to him, and they brought him out and set ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,682 views

    Paul had his critics there in Corinth and in this last section of the letter Paul makes a strong defense against them. We learn some helpful things from Paul about dealing with our own critics.

    Introduction: A. The story is told about D.L. Moody, one of the most effective American evangelists of the 1800s. 1. Like all preachers, he had some supporters and some critics. 2. One day we went into the pulpit to give his sermon. 3. He looked down on the podium and noticed a note for ...read more

    Standing Still

    Contributed by Joe Rowland on Jul 9, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 35,121 views

    If we, as believers, make plans on our own, they are destined for failure. But if God makes them they are a guaranteed success. Exodus 14:14 says: The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

    Standing Still Exodus 14:13-14 13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. 14 The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Jordan on Aug 2, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,787 views

    The Bible says that the people who know God will be strong and have great adventures. Daniel and his three friends’ lives are an example for us to how we can have our own excellent adventures in God.

    HEROES #5: DANIEL’S PURPOSE, PURITY AND PROMOTION OPENING HUMOUR: Talk about wedding yesterday. Three weeks after her wedding day, Joanna called her pastor in hysterics. She was crying, “Pastor, John and I had our first fight together! It was awful. What am I going to do?" The pastor, leaning ...read more

    Purposes Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011
     | 2,132 views

    All of us here will try to solve problems and face situations using our own strength, but the truth of it all is that if we do not allow the Holy Spirit to give us conviction and guide us, then we will fail.

    Like I said last week, we all live with a certain level of stress. Due to our responsibilities and obligations, on a daily basis we are pulled in different directions. And as we were able to determine, the weight of these things slowly begins to fall on our shoulders and that causes our faith to ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Shirley on Feb 28, 2007
    based on 60 ratings
     | 9,599 views

    The key to forgiving others is found in our own forgiveness. And the Bible also indicates a level of ’forgetting’ Christ can make us capable of. Link included to formatted text, audio, and PowerPoint Template.

    Parable of the Unmerciful Servant Matthew 18:21-35 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/UnmercifulServant.html 1.

    Getting Tripped Up By The Flesh Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 19, 2007
    based on 18 ratings
     | 6,858 views

    The three things that trip up Christians after major victories for the Lord are arrogance, independence, and giving into the flesh. Learn how we can actually become our own worst enemy and how to stop it!

    The two greatest enemies to living a victorious life in Jesus Christ are the world and the flesh. While the world presents itself as an impenetrable walled city, the flesh appears much more subtly: as just a few small baubles, a little temptation here and there that surely can’t hurt anything.

    "Last Man Standing"

    Contributed by Charlie Roberts on May 5, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,676 views

    When we allow God's purpose to be front and center… And we step out in faith and trust His ability over our own there is nothing that can't be accomplished for His glory and His kingdom.

    "Last Man Standing" How many people I've ever seen the infomercial… You know the one about the miraculous cloth that does it all… It's called Shamwow You know the one I'm talking about, on TV it looks like it sure does some amazing things.

    The Breastplate Of Righteousness Series

     | 5,126 views

    We utilize what God has issued us for the conflict. We need protection. Which breastplate are we trusting? Our own, or Christ's righteousness? Don't go to war without the Breastplate of Righteousness.

    In today’s military, a critical element of force protection is body armor. The Army issues Kevlar flak vests to soldiers to protect their upper body. DuPont, the manufacturer, claims they’re lightweight, but I’d disagree. It doesn’t take long to feel weighed down. ...read more
