    Waiting faith and expectant trust.

    AN OPEN-ENDED PRAYER. Psalm 123:1-4. This is a short, impassioned prayer: a plea for help in the face of adversaries. It begins with adoration, with an abrupt “Unto You…” (PSALM 123:1). This is a song of Ascents and its opening may be paralleled to another: ‘I to the hills will lift ...read more

    Why did God do that? What was His purpose? And why did He place such an emphasis on the subject of being a "blessing"?

    Religious opposition to the Gospel!

    PERSECUTION: THE OPENING SALVOES. Acts 4:1-31; Acts 5:12-42. Soon after the early success of Pentecost, the fledgling New Testament church found herself facing persecution.

    We’re all so different. We come from different backgrounds, different convictions. But when we all love each other and open arms to all kinds of people, that’s when the beauty of unity is seen. And God wants that here.

    INTRODUCTION Open your Bibles to Romans 15. I am preaching through the book of Romans verse after verse. We are actually coming down to the last two chapters.

    It is God who sets things in motion, and God who opens hearts to the Gospel.

    THE ENCOUNTER OF OPENNESS AND TRUTH. Acts 16:9-15. It is a bit of a cliché, but ‘when God closes one door, He opens another’.
