    Faith And Evidence Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,438 views

    Today we are going to look at another shelter of faith which can help withstand all calamities of life leading a Christian to move forward in God’s will despite the extremity of an existential life.

    Faith and Evidence Joshua 2:8-18 Introduction: This month we focus on the theme, “Shelters of faith”. Experientially it means that faith needs to be sheltered, faith needs to come under the banner of a refuge - so to speak. Faith at times can become so fragile and vulnerable to the tensions and ...read more

    Breaking Down The Strongholds In Our Lives

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Feb 13, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,272 views

    There are destructive things in our life that keep us from experiencing the life that Jesus intended us to live as believers. Those strongholds must come down in our lives and we need to be honest with the Lord about them.

    Bringing down strongholds in our life Introduction- I cannot let go of one of the text from last week- Jesus desiring for us to climb to a higher level of commitment and to see greater things done in our life. Wouldn’t that be a great journey? Matthew 5. (Message)- “When Jesus saw his ministry ...read more

    Sabotage Self Vs Until You Bless Me...

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jan 3, 2020
     | 5,200 views

    Often our words, attitudes and thinking patterns sabotage God's plan. We must wrestle not in the flesh and blood. We must wrestle until our change comes. Jacob's life seemed sabotaged until he had an encounter with God. Come let us seek God's presence.

    SABOTAGE SELF VS UNTIL YOU BLESS ME By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com SABOTAGE: the act of destroying or damaging something deliberately so it will not work correctly, destruction, obstruction, hinder, hamper or hurt.

    Remove The Roots Of Bitterness

    Contributed by Dennis King on Feb 25, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,296 views

    Most people think they are totally and unequivocally free of bitterness. However, that’s not necessarily the truth. You see, bitterness creeps in, slowly and is easier seen in other people rather than in yourself.

    Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, brawling, and slander, along with every form of malice. That statement comes from Ephesians 4, verse 31. The Greek word for bitterness is “Pikria” which translates to “Sticky.” No matter what has been done to you, how bad, how often, or who from, bitterness ...read more

    The Strangest Covenant Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Mar 28, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,807 views

    The incident with the snake on the pole in the wilderness is one of the strangest occurrences in scripture. This sermon looks at how it is part of God's on-going covenant keeping.

    I hate snakes. End of story. There’s only one good type of snake in my book—a dead one! I can see a snake crawling on the ground and immediately it makes my skin crawl…it feels like the snake is crawling all over me. Yes, I know. It’s an irrational thing, and no, I don’t know where it comes ...read more

    Righteousness And The Fear Of God Series

     | 8,215 views

    We serve God's purpose in our generation and we do that with righteousness and the fear of God.

    2 Sam 23:1-7 RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THE FEAR OF GOD ES 19 Mar 17 1830 2 Sam 23:1 “These are the last words of David…” – not in the sense that they are his words at death-bed or before his last breath. • 1 Kings 2 mentions David’s last charge to his son Solomon and that might be his last personal ...read more

    Game Of Thrones - Pt. 2 - Seedy Series

    Contributed by Steve Ely on Aug 7, 2016
     | 5,485 views

    We talk, sing, and pray using the language of the Kingdom . . . words like Lord, King, and sovereign. However, citizenship in a democracy keeps us from understanding the throne.

    Game of Thrones Pt. 2 - Seedy Introduction After 1 year we have finally come to the final battle in the attack on the 5 principalities that I identified for us. We have fought isolation, poverty, hopelessness and apathy. Now we square off against compartmentalism. Compartmentalism is pervasive ...read more

    Judgment Against Lawyers And Pharisees Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 22, 2017
     | 6,000 views

    Today’s lesson is about the conversation between Jesus and a certain Pharisee that took place during dinner. Jesus says many of those things to the Pharisee and his guests that He will say to them later in the temple. Jesus is consistent in what He says

    Judea Lesson: Judgment Against Lawyers and Pharisees (Micah 6:8) Luke 11:37-54 Jesus was a dinner guest in the home of a Pharisee, but He did not flatter His host or the other guests by avoiding the truth. He exposed their hypocrisy and condemned them for their sins (Matt. 23). They ruined ...read more

    The Crown Without A Cross? (May 7, 2023).

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 5, 2023
     | 1,770 views

    It was only after the resurrection that Peter understood the cross and what that it because there is no crown without a cross!

    THE CROWN WITHOUT A CROSS? Text: 1 Peter 2:20 – 25 1 Peter 2:20 - 25 (19) For it is a credit to you if, being aware of God, you endure pain while suffering unjustly.

    Compelled To Testify

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 14, 2023
     | 1,139 views

    The love of Christ should compel us to testify on his behalf before the court of the world.

    Lots of people are testifying these days. We’ve got trials in California and New York and Georgia and Washington D.C. Politicians and government officials and even just ordinary people caught up in things are all either pouring their hearts out or nowhere to be found. Some are practically begging ...read more

     | 3,003 views

    Whom do we go to in times of trouble? Can we call on God and will He hear us? Here are some great examples from the bible that are shared in this sermon.

    We read in Mark 10:51, Jesus asked, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man answered, "Master, I want to see!" (CEV) Mark 10 records an encounter between Jesus and a blind man named Bartimaeus, and the above verse is part of that conversation that Jesus had with ...read more

    Comforting God’s People

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Dec 4, 2023
     | 1,319 views

    Today’s text echoes what we see throughout scripture about how the Lord disciplines His children. God disciplines us because He loves us.

    COMFORTING GOD’S PEOPLE (December 6, 2020) Text: Isaiah 40: 1 - 11 Isaiah 40:1 -11: Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God. 2 Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that her penalty is paid, that she has received from the Lord’s hand ...read more

    The Way Of The Cross

    Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024
     | 1,122 views

    In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

    Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,297 views

    The answers that God will give to us, will be so astounding that it will be way beyond our human thinking and understanding. Irrespective of the kind of situations that we are challenged with, if the Lord is with us, we can come out victorious.

    God our Liberator We read in Psalm 91:15,“When they call to me, I will answer them; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will rescue them and honor them.” (GNB) As we continue our study on Psalm 91, we will meditate on verse 15 in its entirety and thereby try to comprehend all that ...read more
