There Is So Much Rubble

Contributed by Samuel M on Oct 18, 2024

God is sending His end-time Nehemiah’s to remove and clear the rubble, rebuild the church, and prepare for His end-time work. If you want to become an end-time Nehemiah, ask God to open your eyes to see the spiritual condition of the land and lead you to pray for it.

Meanwhile, the people in Judah said, “The strength of the labourers is giving out, and there is so much rubble that we cannot rebuild the wall.” Nehemiah 4:10 When the labourers tried to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, they found that there was so much rubble that they cannot rebuild the wall.

While God May Be Found (July 17, 2022)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Jul 15, 2022

Who would argue against the understanding that we live in a day when many take God for granted? One thing that eighth chapter of Amos makes clear is that moving away from God invites destruction. The opening image of ripe fruit cuts to the chase as a metaphor for God’s judgement.

WHILE GOD MAY BE FOUND Texts: Isaiah 55:6, Amos 8:1- 2, 8:11- 12 Isaiah 55:6 Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Hime while He is near Amo 8:1 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A basket of ...read more

I Am Called 'elohim' Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 9, 2020

The minute you open up the Bible it’s as if God has taken your face in His hands, is looking you in the eyes, and saying: “Read my lips … I am God … I am Elohim … I am the eternal Creator and Sustainer of Life who made you so that I can love you and you can love me.”

Names … We all have them … be dumb if we didn’t, amen? You can’t go around saying “Hey you over there” all day. Names make sense … but how often do you think about your name … or names?
