Getting Our Requests Granted 2 Of 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 8, 2022

In this sermon, I want to give you a gift. It is a pearl. THE PEARL IS IN THE FORM OF A PRAYER!

Jesus Christ, Our Great High Priest

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 13, 2022

On the last night of Jesus' life before going to the cross, He spent time with the Father in prayer, serving as our great High Priest making intercession with God the Father on our behalf (Hebrews 3:1, 6:20). This "high priestly" prayer warrants our attention.

So far in John's gospel, we have encountered glorious portraits of the life, work, and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ that give "many convincing proofs" (Acts 1:3) of HIs divinity and godly authority which no one else can ever claim. He healed the sick, raised the dead, fed the ...read more

"measured With Our Own Bushel"

Contributed by David Nolte on Jul 17, 2021

The measure by which we pour into the lives of others will be used by God to pour into us.

Lacking these standards, we would be left with uncertainty about whether that 2X4 is a 2X4, is 8 feet ...read more

When God Messes Up Our Plans

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Dec 26, 2021

When Jesus was born, nobody expected it, and nobody made plans for it. But what it did was mess up everyone’s plans. Our plans don’t always go the way we want. So, when God messes up our plans, what can we do not to allow these plans changes to wreak havoc in our lives?
