    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 31, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,674 views

    Unbelief caused their forefathers to die in the wilderness, never seeing God’s best, and never experiencing the future God had for them. They had God as their father, Moses as their leader, God's promises and yet die with their dreams unfulfilled.

    2023 New Year’ Message: “Preparing For the Journey Ahead” Scripture: Deuteronomy 11:8-17 “Therefore, be careful to obey every command I am giving you today, so you may have strength to go in and take over the land you are about to enter. 9 If you obey, you will enjoy a long life in the land ...read more

    Instructions For Ministry (Matthew 10:5-42)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 10, 2025
     | 265 views

    In these verses, Matthew describes the responsibilities given to the apostles by the Lord Jesus. He anointed them with special powers and abilities to show people the power of God but also warned Mark 13;9-13of coming persecution for the cause of the Gospel.

    The Lord Jesus gave the apostles specific responsibilities and gifts to minister to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. His role as the Promised Messiah would be to not deliver the nation from the bondage of Rome, but to free them and all people from a far worse bondage, that of sin and it ...read more

    David speaks to God before he speaks to the people who are causing the problem. So many times, we reverse this. If we have a problem with someone, we talk to them first and only talk to God as a last resort.

    I want to talk to you about turning to God prayer to destress your home for the next few minutes. We launch a new series where we are looking at four attitudes that every home should have in the coming weeks. I invite you to find Psalm 4 with me. Children and parents are stressed!

    In the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season, we tend to forget the cause of Christmas. We hear but we don’t hear. The Christmas story tells the most amazing story: that God came down to earth in the form of a tiny, helpless baby.

    God is seeking those who are willing to pay the price and live sacrificially for Him. His heart is after men of a different spirit from the ordinary. He especially blesses those who have separated themselves unto His cause.

    When things don’t go our way, we sometimes catch ourselves not only wondering what God is doing, but if God can be trusted to care for us and cause the circumstances in our lives to have a positive impact upon us.

    Psalm 37:1-6, 25-33 “Can God Be Trusted?” INTRODUCTION Trust is one of the most fragile items on the planet earth. It is difficult to build up and it can be destroyed by a careless action.
