     | 3,574 views

    Does the Word shape your thoughts about Heaven or old songs and your desires?

    This issue has caused me some grief over the years and it is such a petty issue. Yet, some have made it a massive doctrine to be staunchly defended like the Trinity and Substitutionary Atonement. It came up in a discussion of something else tonight so I figured it was a good time to throw it out ...read more

    Contributed by Pastor Jeff Hughes on Feb 16, 2014
     | 7,123 views

    I've had many people that are no more saved than the man in the moon tell me "I pray all the time!" Is this right? Can God hear the prayers of the unsaved? I'd say the answer is no...for the most part.

    Can God Hear The Prayers Of The Unsaved? Back in April, I had the opportunity to witness to a young woman who was not saved.

    When we pray there are three possible answers from the Lord, yes, no and wait. We all hate to wait but we need to trust in God's perfect timing.

    Let’s begin with this question: What is the major enemy of hope in your life? What is the one thing that, more than any other, threatens to weaken your hope? Could it be: discouragement, suffering; weariness, exhaustion. Perhaps the main enemy of hope in your life is simply the passage ...read more

    Paul as we say in the south chases a rabbit of huge importance. He tells of the central importance of the church in God's plan to reveal His wisdom in the Gospel. Then Paul prays that the church will practically live what God has divinely designed.

    Intro: Paul was just getting ready to pray for the Ephesian church when he was reminded of the importance of the church and as preachers are often known to do he chases a rabbit. What an important rabbit to chase today. The church would probably not make it into a list of the 50 most important ...read more

    The wonderful things God reveals to us when we are totally focused on Him in centering prayer.

    READ PASSAGE. When I first read this passage, I saw examples of centered prayer and how God can speak to you and will speak to you if we will only center on Him and listen to what He has to say. The first centered prayer session was Cornelius. Cornelius was a Gentile, but in verse 2 we find that ...read more
