    In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid on Aug 1, 2015
     | 6,418 views

    In man's heart and in his mind, there is the love of God that gives us the strength to resist all temptation campaigns launched by Satan to draw us further and further away from God, our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.

    IN THE WILDERNESS by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (July 29, 2015) "The Lord knowest how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished (2 Peter 2:9 King James Version [Temptation]). Greetings In The Holy Name of Jesus, My ...read more

     | 18,018 views

    The power of God: 1. Overcomes the worst conditions (vs. 12-16). 2. Outrages God's enemies (vs. 17-18). 3. Opens prison doors (vs. 19-25). 4. Obligates us to the highest devotion (vs. 26-29).

    #11 The Holy Spirit Helps Us To Consecrate Ourselves Series

    Contributed by Ronald Thorington on Mar 11, 2015
     | 4,579 views

    To fully consecrate one's selve to God is not an easy matter. We struggle with our double-mindedness because the selfesh/sinful nature causes us to be double-minded. It is only with the help of the Holy Spirit that a believer can come to surrender fully

    Introduction: Scriptures: Romans 12:1-2, 1 Peter 2:16 I. The Meaning of Consecration to God A. Dictionary definition of consecration 1.

     | 8,524 views

    “Berean” is a popular name for churches. Why is that? The Bereans exemplified some of the most noble characteristics any group of people could ever have.

    The Path to Christian Nobility Series: Acts Chuck Sligh June 4, 2017 TEXT: Acts 17:10-12 - “And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received ...read more

    As I opened to read Genesis chapter 16, I got stuck with the above verse, it is such an eerie moment in the life of Abram and Sarah which we all can relate to, but our future depends on how we handle such situations, if not we are ruined.

    Hagar Genesis 16:1”Now Sarai, Abram's wife had borne him no children, and she had an Egyptian maid whose name was Hagar.” Our website and facebook links: https://www.worshipjesusministries.org https://www.facebook.com/balasamson01/ The following five points are covered in this entire ...read more

    Joseph's Precarious Path To 'providence'

     | 5,170 views

    please enter a brief summary Is there a once cherished dream that comes to mind? Between the dream dreampt, and the dream realized, life happens. Like Joseph, during the in-between time, we have the choice to be faithful or write the dream off.

    September 16, 2012 “Joseph’s Precarious Path to ‘Providence’ ” Genesis 37:1-28; & 50:15-21 Joseph was born to Rachel, the true love - favorite wife of Jacob, but only after many long years of childlessness. Immediately doting Jacob starts showing ...read more

    Sermon # 7 - Time To Stop Murmuring Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,384 views

    Do we find ourselves complaining and murmuring about many things? Why do we do so, and how can we stop doing this? This sermon will help us examine ourselves in the light of God’s word.

    If we as a church today desire to resemble the early church, and if our aspiration is that people should be added in great numbers, then it is only appropriate that we not only evaluate ourselves in the light of God’s word, but also investigate to see what the early church did differently that made ...read more

    Trotting In To Save The Day Series

    What image comes to mind when you think about a hero riding in to save the day? Jesus, our ultimate action hero, rides into Jerusalem to save the day for humanity, but not in the way you would imagine, not this time anyway.

    When you picture the hero coming in to save the day you probably think of a tall guy in a tall hat riding in on tall white horse with a couple of shotguns off of his saddle and two in his hands. Well, our ultimate action hero, Jesus, rides into Jerusalem all right—but on a tall white horse? ...read more

    Conflict Resolution

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Sep 9, 2002
    based on 55 ratings
     | 10,257 views

    Jesus in Mt 18 offers us three routes to “conflict resolution” – similar in many ways to the three judicial routes that we have today. 1. The “ Out of Court” settlement 2. “Arbitration” in camera and 3. The full blown Confrontation in Open Court

    Sharrington/ Hunworth 08-09-02 Mt 18:15-20 Conflict Resolution This morning’s Gospel reading from Mt. 18 verses 15-20 is all about handling personal conflict in church. The text seen in isolation - reads rather like a legal manual on how to deal with someone else’s’ sin and what steps we need to ...read more

     | 24,746 views

    Almost everyone has a picture in their minds of what Jesus looks like... but almost no one visualizes Him the way He's shown in Revelation 5. Why does God paint us a portrait of a wounded lamb with 7 horns and 7 eyes?

    A preacher was showing a child a painting of Jesus. Trying to explain that we didn’t really know what Jesus looked like he said: "It's not really Jesus. It’s just an artist's conception of him." The child looked long and hard at the picture and said; "Well, it sure looks like him," ...read more

    When you think of the word church what comes into your mind? Jesus Christ told Peter, “I will build my Church.” But what does that church look like? What is the church and what is intended to be?

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,584 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    A shoe manufacturer who decided to open the Congo market sent two salesmen to the undeveloped territory. One salesman cabled back: “Prospect here nil. No one wears shoes.” The other salesman reported, “Market potential terrific! Everyone needs shoes.

    Praying that the Eyes of Your Heart Would Be Enlightened (Eph. 1:16-20) "I pray that the Father of Glory may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation (of insight into the mysteries and secrets) in the deep and intimate knowledge of Him.
