    1 Samuel 3:1

     | 2,031 views

    In this sermon we take a look at Samuel's heritage and how he came to minister before the Lord under Eli, and, why the Lord was quiet in the days preceding Samuel's time as the prophet of Israel.

    Bad Choices In The Tabernacle

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 28, 2021
     | 2,271 views

    We hear much today about self-proclaimed preachers who seem to care little about the Lord and His Holy Word but seem to care a great deal about their wealth and popularity. Phinehas and Hophni were not so concerned about popularity but they certainly cared about their creature comforts!

    A study of Psalm 103 will give us ample ammunition to personally, passionately, and perpetually praise God no matter what we are going through! I am going to give you three reasons why: We Have It So Good; We Enjoy So Much; and We Have Expressed So Little!

    Sermon – Count Your Blessings Ps 103:1 A Psalm of David. “Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4 Who redeemeth thy life from ...read more

     | 4,377 views

    Christ is the Door. In Egypt, the blood of the lamb was taken, and the hyssop applied the blood to the door, which made the form of a cross as it went from the doorposts to the lintel and the blood ran down. At Calvary, hyssop was taken, offered to the Door on the cross, He who is the Lamb of God.

    “I AM THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP - I AM THE DOOR” - PRESENTATION IN THE “I AM SERIES OF JOHN’S GOSPEL” PART 2 This is PART two of this address.

     | 2,731 views

    The Lord’s Prayer in John 17 can be divided into three basic parts. Christ prays for himself to finish strong; for His disciples to follow faithfully and for every believer who would follow them in the way.

    Sermon – The Lord’s Prayer From John 17 John 17:1-25 After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come.

    Providence - God's Ongoing Work

    Contributed by Todd Catteau on Feb 22, 2022
     | 2,342 views

    Is God active in the world or a passive observer? The doctrine of Providence claims he is the former - the creator who is still sustaining the world and working in it to bring about his purposes. This sermon explores the ways He is active and the peace providence gives us.

    Providence Today I want to talk about God – shouldn’t surprise you since we are in church • He’s a being that the more you know the more you don’t know • God is knowable but incomprehensible • We will never totally understand everything about God but that shouldn’t keep us from knowing what we can ...read more

    Worship As Sacrifice

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,621 views

    The word "worship" means ascribing worth to God. In America, worship doesn’t cost us much; and so, we have basically forgotten God's real worth. But, according to the Scripture, worship involves sacrifice, which is very costly.

    Tonight we are going to come to a better understanding of what it means to worship the Lord. To begin, we must understand what the word “worship” means. The word worship is derived from an Anglo-Saxon word, which is actually a combination of the two words “worth” and “ship.” The term “ship” ...read more

     | 3,143 views

    Jesus loves us so much that He pursues us, and pleads with us to enter the kingdom and seek salvation. He knocks on the door to our heart. Jesus may knock on our heart’s door, but we need to be knocking on heaven’s gates!

    This evening’s message is taken from what is commonly called “A Friend Comes at Midnight.” In this particular passage, Jesus used a parable to relate a certain message about our need to continue knocking on the door. In Revelation 3:20, Jesus declared, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If ...read more

    Desire God's Glory Series

     | 4,285 views

    David fervently desired to be in God’s temple all the days of his life, so he could behold the glory and the beauty of the Lord. In contrast a majority of people simply wish to receive material blessings and miracles from the Lord, with no desire whatsoever to see the glory of God.

    Desire God’s Glory We read in Psalm 91:9-10, “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.” (KJV) Psalm 91:10 is rendered this way in another version, “So nothing bad ...read more
