    Our Sacrifice Of Worship - God's Desire

    Contributed by Rick George on Apr 19, 2008

     | 8,065 views

    A woman gives her most valued asset for the purpose of worshiping Jesus. We must also give sacrificially in our worship.

    There’s no doubt that the topic of giving and anything related to our finances is uncomfortable. It’s uncomfortable for pastors and it’s uncomfortable for congregations. But God never said that we should be comfortable with His Word, but He did say that His Word would nourish us and sometimes with ...read more

    Sermon # 46 - What God Desires Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 572 views

    Jonah failed to understand the compassionate and merciful nature of God. We as a church must know the heart of God and be actively involved in sharing the good news of the gospel and inviting those outside to be part of God’s Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 4:8, “And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.” (KJV) As we observe the works of God they astound ...read more

    God's Desire For Mankind

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Feb 4, 2022
     | 3,774 views

    God does not want anyone to perish but desires that everyone repents and attain salvation. He has done, is doing and will do everything to save mankind from sin. The choice, however, rest with man; either to accept or reject God's plan of salvation.

    TEXT: 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. A BURNING DESIRE God's desire is for man to be saved. He does not want any human soul to ...read more

    Sermon # 51 - Obedience God Desires Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 17, 2025

     | 283 views

    Joseph and Mary are great examples of ones who implicitly obeyed God, and thereby were instrumental in being channels to bring forth and raise Jesus, the Son of God. Are we willing to obey God, despite not having logical reasons to do so and even when it is hard to do so?

    For our meditation today we will consider 1 Samuel 15:22, “And Samuel said, “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.” (ESV) The prophet Samuel spoke these ...read more

    We must remember, in every situation, God knows how to sustain us and take care of us. The Prosperity Message causes some to desire prosperity at any cost. There are some things that cost too much.

    Sermon: Uncontrolled Desires Ps 106:1 “Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. 2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise? 3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all ...read more

    Paul’s desire to visit Rome comes on the heels of an incredible journey, but not without personal cost and obedience to Jesus through the Holy Spirit first. (Ref: Romans 15:23-33)

    Romans, Part 44 Romans 15:23-33 Introduction Why would any man desire to give his life to the cause of Jesus? - It’s not because of his salvation at stake (that is already assured; see v16a) -- EX: Cannot be a minister of Christ unless Christ dwells within you - It is because of his desire ...read more

    Each of us has a story – a testimony – a powerful truth of God’s abilities, and the fact that it is personal to YOU ought to empower you to share it! What is keeping us from telling others who He is in our lives?
