    God's Humble Servants Honored Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 2, 2009
    based on 66 ratings
     | 27,617 views

    God has had enough of people who do not listen to His word & despise those who do. God will one day judge those who are depending on externals to establish their relationship with Him, who delight in their way instead of the Lord’s way.

    ISAIAH 66: 1-6 GOD’S HUMBLE SERVANTS HONORED As the climax to the book, this chapter describes the Lord fulfilling some of the promises He has made. The Lord had promise to distinguish between His true people and those who honor Him with their lips but whose hearts are far from Him (especially ...read more

    The Love God Hates

    A seven year old boy asked me a question when he saw the caption in our bulletin, " Does God hate love Pastor? What does this mean?" I just told him to listen to my sermon so that his question will be answered.

    The Love God Hates 1 John 2:12-17 Just before I preached one Friday morning a seven year old boy asked me a question when he saw the caption in our bulletin, " Does God hate love Pastor?

    No Ordinary Man

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Oct 19, 2012
     | 5,197 views

    Jesus went to great lengths to validate his identity by using his name which is synonymous with God’s name. Jesus told his listeners plainly who he was by name but they did not make the connection. Have you mistaken His identity?

    No Ordinary Man John 4:1-30 What is in a name? Well a name says a lot about a person and it is necessary to correctly identify one person from another. Just try getting over the border by using a name or abbreviated name and see what happens to you. Just the other day I needed the name of a ...read more

    Daniel's Passionate Prayer Series

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Nov 4, 2012
     | 10,612 views

    Young people! Youth Leaders! Listen! When would you abandon the world, work and spend time with God in fasting and prayer, so that you could get directions from ABOVE for your life rather than running behind men/women of God?

    You are greatly loved! Daniel 9:3 ‘And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes..’ Friend, the reason for our mediocre lives, broken homes and debt-drenched lives is because we read more of ‘how to become rich ...read more

    Q&A—What did Jesus say we were to possess if we were truly His disciples? Love for one another! Have you ever wanted to know the heart of Jesus? Listen to Jesus’ prayer—Not My will but Your will be done.

    Love That Multiplies. 1 John 3:14-15TPT Have you ever wanted to know the heart of Jesus? Listen to Jesus’ prayer—Not My will but Your will be done. Jesus knew His will might limit what His Father’s will was. The Trinity is always in cohorts. Q&A—What did Jesus say we were to possess if we ...read more

    Word Of God: What Is In It For Me?

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
     | 4,059 views

    What is our response to the Word of God? Do we continue to search out to try and see how the word can meet our needs? Or do we have a higher purpose in listening to the word and applying it? The answer to the question "What is In It for Me? " is simple.

    This month’s topic is Word of God and for the past two weeks both the pastors have given us some serious messages on what is the Word all about. I would like to turn the table and focus on “What is our response to the Word?” Whether I am teaching at SAIACS or running a program for my corporate job, ...read more

    Start Fresh Life Series

    With our strength, we try everything possible, from reading books, listening to motivational speeches, taking up new resolutions, and so on. If you have been through this and asking questions, "Why my life is without any change?"

    For many of us, our life never seems to have experienced any newness, Though we have stepped into a new year, It's been a similar experience each and every year. The expectations and enthusiasm we have at the end of the year slowly disappear as there are no exceptional things happening. ...read more

    A Song With A Sharp Rebuke Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 27, 2022
     | 2,618 views

    It has been called a Trojan horse song because it seems like it will be a love song between God and His people. Isaiah gets the attention of God’s people with this song. The people listened to and loved the song only to find they themselves are the scoundrel referred to in this song.

    Songs are used for many purposes. There are love songs, worship songs even political protest songs. Isaiah who I think we could call the “singing prophet” composed an unusual song here. Once you have listened to the whole song you realize it is not what you first expected. It has been called a ...read more

    Revelation, the book of, is only as hard as we make it. And we make it hard by, 1, not reading it, 2, skimming through it, assuming it cannot be understood, 3, listening to teachers, without examining it ourselves. Here's a quiz and an intro to the book.

    Some opening thoughts, and a quiz How much have you gleaned from the Bible’s final book? What a wonderful treatise, filled with praise, and promises of His coming! Granted, some of the details of Revelation are not “important” compared to the cardinal truths of our salvation, but ...read more

    Taking The Journey

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,477 views

    God’s call to take the journey to worship the newborn king isn’t just for those born to privilege, or those born in the church. It isn’t just for pastors, scholars, and religious leaders. No, God’s call to worship is for anyone who will listen.

    OPENING STORY An old king sat uncomfortably on his throne, fingernails dug into well-worn grooves in the wood as he waited nervously for the mysterious travelers to approach. All Jerusalem was abuzz with the rumors that these men were searching for a new heir which had just been born, yet neither ...read more

    He had all the "right stuff", humanly speaking, but he knew something was wrong. He ran to Jesus, listened to Jesus, but walked away. "Go thy way" wasn't something he wanted to do.

    Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Glasgow, MO, 2014 This is not an exact transcription Background: When an event in Scripture is recorded once, it’s clearly important. This event was mentioned in three of the four Gospels! This event took place shortly before the Lord Jesus ...read more

    Prayer is an act of our faith and demonstrates a relationship with the Lord – It shows we are connected together – it’s a natural reaction to a deep and trusting relationship with the Lord. Truth is when we are so connected to the Lord we cannot help but talk to Him and listen to Him!

    "Finding God's Strength" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 15, 2014
     | 8,102 views

    Like many of the teachings of Jesus, the words He spoke did not really go along with the popular views of the day. Listen again to what he said…blessed are the meek…they will inherit the earth. This is certainly not the teaching that is found in the business world today.

    Finding God’s Strength Matthew 5:5 and 11:28-30 The setting for the message this morning is found in one of the highlights of the ministry of Jesus. His ministry had its share of highs and lows but this was definitely one of his finer moments. In the background, Jesus had just gone through ...read more
