    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 9, 2026
     | 139 views

    Philadelphia didn't seem to be a large church, but the little strength they had was enough for them to overcome with the Lord's help. This church was truly the church of the open door!

     | 157 views

    This church, the last of the Seven, received a strong message from the Lord Jesus Christ. Still, there is a tender and beautiful invitation in the last few verses. Have you opened the door to Jesus?

    Deny Yourself Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,549 views

    Denying ourselves means looking introspectively, living with open hands, and not looking back at what we've left behind in order to fully follow Jesus and experience abundant life.

    Today, we're going to talk about going "all in" for Jesus. You know, like when you're playing a game and you give it everything you've got? That's what we're talking about, but with our relationship with Jesus. So, let's dive in! Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up ...read more

    Elisha's servant experiences God's presence, protection, and provision when Elisha prays, 'Open his eyes and let him see.' How might we see as God sees?

    In the midst of the war between Aram and Israel, the King of Israel seems to have an uncanny ability to predict Aram's army movements. This leads the King of Aram to suspect a spy in his camp. However, the truth is that God is speaking to the prophet Elisha, giving him divine knowledge and vision ...read more

    Turn with me to Genesis 1 and follow along as I read the opening verses. I’ll insert this Hebrew name as I read: “In the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth.

    Because I have three first names, people often don’t know what to call me. I can see the hesitation on their faces. Is his name Brian or is it Bill? My middle name is John so I like to say when you use my full name three guys come running! I’ve gone by many names in my life… Ibam – This is ...read more

    Jesus wants us to roll away the stone of doubts and fear, then he will tear the veil that keeps us separated from Him, and then He will give us an open door into eternal life.

    The Deceptive Power Of Compromise

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Nov 10, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,451 views

    When a Christian compromises his godly values and rationalizes that the ends justify the means, he opens the door to all kinds of trouble, not only in his own life, but in the lives of many others.

    Compromise is not always bad. I heard one preacher say that he torn the word compromise out of his dictionary. I thought, “You must not be married!” However, if we compromise our godly values, we open the door for trouble in our lives. This is true because God loves us, and when we start in ...read more

    Tithing

    Contributed by Dean Morgan on Sep 2, 2004

     | 20,340 views

    I don’t believe for one minute that tithing buys God’s blessing. But I do believe that it opens a door – or better, a “window” – of release for God to bless continually and mightily.

    TEXT: Malachi 3:6-12 TITLE: TITHING Let me begin by making three statements about tithing: 1. Tithe means “a tenth” – Genesis 28:22 – “And this stone which I have set as a pillar shall be God’s house, and of all that you give me I will surely give a tenth to You.” The word tithe in the Hebrew ...read more

    Life can cut you wide open. More dangerous than the cuts of life, is the very real danger that spiritual bacteria will take advantage of the situation and turn a person from God.

    Opportunistic Infections An opportunistic infection is an infection caused by pathogens, that take advantage of certain situations. These infections usually do not cause disease in a healthy host, a compromised immune system, however, presents an "opportunity" for the pathogen to infect. Today ...read more
