     | 181 views

    Pray for the happiness of them who curse you.

    A. INTRODUCTION 1. If you can fall in love with someone, can you fall into hate? How is love and hate similar in character, but different in what they do to you and for you? 2. Hate can be good or evil. Good: “You who love the Lord, hate evil” (Ps. 97:10). “I hate the gatherings of those who do ...read more

    AN EXHORTATION TO IMPORTUNITY IN PRAYER. Luke 18:1-8. The Pharisees demanded of Jesus when the kingdom of God should come. Jesus’ unexpected response was that it is here already (Luke 17:20-21)!

    The Savior saved us so we will speak about Him to those He sends us to.

    How many of you remember the sermon from last weekend? Me either. Howard Hendricks used to say we have the potential of remembering 10% of what we hear, and that’s just the potential. Another pastor believes we forget 95% of a sermon after 72 hours. For us to remember, we need to hear things ...read more

    Seed The Clouds Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 849 views

    To seed the clouds, we need to have a prophetic imagination, which means seeing the invisible, hearing the inaudible, and believing the impossible. We need to persist in prayer and trust that God is working behind the scenes.

    Have you ever heard of cloud seeding? It's this crazy science experiment where they make it rain by putting stuff into clouds. Back in 1946, a dude named Vincent Schaeffer made it snow by seeding clouds with dry ice. But guess what? This idea isn't new. Even the prophet Elijah did it. Even the ...read more

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 24, 2021
     | 2,356 views

    Jesus persistently reached out to unbelievers despite the dangers to Himself. His commitment to this cause and creativity doing so challenges us to do the same, especially around major Christian holidays.

    1. When you truly become a born again believer in Christ, several things become immediately apparent to you. a. You have had the great fortune of finding the way to heaven, Jesus Christ, and that it’s by faith in Him, not as works, as most people believe. b. You have been saved from an ...read more

    To see a change in our world today, we need to PRAY and PROCLAIM Christ. Pray is to talk to God for men, and proclaim is to talk to men for God.

    2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; ...read more

    Have you ever prayed and prayed about a situation, but seemed as if God never heard you and if He did…He didn’t answer?

    Have you ever prayed and prayed about a situation, but seemed as if God never heard you and if He did…He didn’t answer?

    Not only is Psalm 139 important theologically, but it is a good model for learning what we need to do in beginning to pray successfully by praying the Scriptures themselves.

    In the “Dark Ages” of television, before there were hundreds of cable channels with nothing to watch and before there was even color broadcasting, much less HDTV, the news division of one of the networks (CBS) had a show entitled, “You Are There!” The idea of the show was to take you back and allow ...read more

    Paul’s Prayer For The Church

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 10, 2022
     | 4,097 views

    In this passage of scripture we are going to deal with a prayer that Paul prayed for the Ephesians. This prayer is considered by some as the second most important prayer ever prayed.

    Folks have some strange ideas about prayer. Some folks do not have the slightest idea of what prayer is. Illus: This reminds me of Karin Wotten of Ocala, Florida who tells about the opening exercises of their Vacation Bible School, when they asked for volunteers to pray. One morning, a first ...read more
