    The Announcement Youth Sermon

     | 821 views

    Jesus' arrival brought the Kingdom of Heaven to earth and opened the door for us to become citizens of God's Kingdom. We need to repent and align our lives with the Kingdom of God.

    Jesus' arrival was a big deal, and it was predicted way back in the Old Testament. The Jewish people were waiting for this hero, the Messiah, to show up and set things right. John the Baptist was like the hype man, telling everyone, "The Kingdom of Heaven is coming. Get your act together and ...read more

    The Kingdom of God is full of surprises, and we should be open to receiving it in unexpected ways. This is evident in the story of Palm Sunday, where Jesus enters Jerusalem in a way that no one expected.

    Hey guys, today is Palm Sunday, the kick-off of Holy Week, when Jesus cruised into Jerusalem on a donkey. This was a total curveball because people were expecting a different kind of king. God's Kingdom is full of surprises, and we gotta be ready for them. God's Kingdom is full of surprises, and we ...read more

    In the face of adversity, God's remembrance can turn situations around for good. Haman's plot against Mordecai backfired because God had opened a book of remembrance for Mordecai.

    When we think of a king, we often associate wealth, power, authority, and grandeur with their position. However, it is important to note that in the life of a king, there are also challenges and difficulties. In the book of Esther, we see how God works in the life of a king to bring about His ...read more

    The sermon urges us to open our hearts to God’s Word, allowing Him to transform us so we bear lasting spiritual fruit in our lives.

    Good morning, friends. I’m so glad we get to sit under the kindness of Jesus together today. If you could see my heart right now, you’d notice both a hunger and a hush—hunger for God’s voice and a hush that says, “Speak, Lord. I’m listening.” Isn’t that what we all long for? A steady word in a ...read more

    "An Early Christmas Present”

    God has a pile of gifs that He wants you to have. But He doesn’t want to wait for a specific time or day; He wants you to open them now.

    Intro: As a little boy when Christmas time would approach one of the most tortuously exciting prospects of Christmas morning was seeing the ever increasing pile of presents under the tree. I never had any trouble understanding the old saying, “slow as Christmas”. Every December just drug by for ...read more

    I think that for a majority of Christians the Book of Revelation is one of the most neglected books in all the Bible. It has a message for Christians today, & yet many never even open it.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH, BROWNSVILLE, TX I am going to read the 5th chapter of Revelation in its entirety. It is short, & yet it is such a majestic chapter that there is no place conveniently to stop. (READ Rev. 5.) A. I think that for the great majority of ...read more

    Keep your eyes open for opportunities in your everyday life to share the gospel with people, to offer them living water, so they too can worship God in spirit and in truth.

    Well, I’m sure you’ve all heard a sermon on the woman at the well a number of times. I think I’ve probably preached on it here at least twice before, so what I want to do today is not to look at all the features of the story, but just two or three important things that come out that might be ...read more

    Your mouth has the amazing power to be either full of good, or full of evil. Today, the message for all of us is “Shut your filthy mouth, and open your righteous one!”

    Do you notice the difference between the way your breath smells before you go to be and the way it smells when you get up? “Last night my breath smelled pretty righteous!” but in the morning your spouse is saying, “Shut your filthy mouth!” Your mouth has the amazing power to be either full of ...read more

    Christmas is great, but what do you do after the presents have been opened and the turkey has been eaten. The day after Christmas is a time for pondering, praising and proclaiming.

    THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS Around our house we start putting up decorations more than a month before Christmas. For our kids their focus is usually on Christmas morning.

    A man comes to Jesus with an open heart and mind. The Lord reveals to him some of the most amazing truths found in the Bible. Is it time you had a good, honest, talk with God?

    Do you ever look for something so hard that you can’t find it? Maybe it’s just my age kicking in but sometimes I’ll lose something in the most obvious place possible. I think so hard about where I put it that I forget to look in the most likely place. I figure that I would have remembered easily if ...read more
