Open The Eyes Of Our Hearts

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 17, 2021

Paul spoke about the “eyes of the heart” being opened for all believers. How do we see God’s working in our lives? Do we have enough of God’s light in our lives to see His call on our lives? Do we have faith, and enlightenment, hope and power only as far as the eye can see?

Ephesians 1:15 – 23:  I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love[a] toward all the saints, and for this reason 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers. 17 I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of ...read more

Drawn By Beauty

Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023

Where does beauty come from and why are we attracted to it? Why do we as human beings desire to make beautiful creations? The existence of objective beauty points to a God of beauty who loves His creation and desires to give us joy and pleasure.

Today I will be speaking about how objective beauty points us to the Creator God. We’ll be looking at Psalm 27:4 and Psalm 96:6. One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD and to ...read more

Barriers That Were Meant To Be Broken

Contributed by Mark Mccool on Feb 4, 2005

Certain laws in our world are unbreakable, whether of mathmatics, physics, or natural science. Sin, circumstances, and life, often place barriers that seem impossible to break through, but to Christ, they are barriers meant to be broken.

Watch The Father And Imitate Him
