     | 17,270 views

    When we take action or make a decision but neglect the power of God, we are actually revealing our lack of faith.

    Getting ahead of God will bring troubles! If I asked the question, do you believe in an all powerful God? Many of us will raise our hands, wouldn’t we? But if I asked, do you always take action and make decisions based on your belief in an all powerful God? Not too many of us will raise our hands, ...read more

    The text says there is a right path to follow and a wrong path to follow. Follow the right path and it will lead to joy, peace, and eternal life and fellowship with God – follow the wrong path and it leads to destruction.

    DETOUR – THER’S A MUDDY ROAD AHEAD" PROV. 14:12-15 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof <are> the ways of death. Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth <is> heaviness. The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a ...read more

    Though evil plotted heavily against Jesus He remained in total control of every situation. Sometimes do you adopt the ways of the world to accomplish God’s will?

    Have you ever met someone who really comes across as having it together and being pretty impressive? I’m reminded of that old TV show The Pretender. In it a guy named Jared could instantly become anyone he wanted: a doctor, a cop, a scientist, whatever. He wasn’t really any of those things and ...read more

    A sermon preached for the 50th anniversary of St. Peter Lutheran Church in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada.

    Today we celebrate the 50th anniversary of St. Peter Lutheran Church. 50 years. If this congregation was a man, he could expect that half of this life has already passed, and so have the days when he had no love handles or wrinkles. But a congregation is not an individual—it’s more like ...read more

    God has a great plan for our lives which He wants to see fulfilled. He is watching to see that His Word concerning our lives is fulfilled (Jeremiah 1:12). The devil doesn’t want to see this plan actualized. The way he comes about this is to get us to mis

    We have great potential to do greater things for God but many times, our eyesight are limited and we only see the problem not the solution. In this message, we will study the life of Gideon and how God's plan unfolded before his eyes.

Fleas are wingless insects with mouth parts adapted for piercing skin and sucking blood living in mammals and birds or dogs. He put some fleas in a jar with a covered top on it.

    Plan The Work, Part 3: Defend The Plan Series

    When a leader knows, through prayer and the confirmation of God’s people, that he is in the will of God, he must defend his plan against ungodly opposition.

    One of the great lessons we get from the book of Nehemiah is that opposition is not a onetime deal. It would be nice if we could just deal with opposition once and be done with it, wouldn’t it? But we can’t. Because as long as we are doing the work that God calls us to do, we will have to face ...read more

    Think about your life for a moment. Have you missed an opportunity you regret? Do you think you are still on “Plan A” for your life? For many in the room with any years of experience, you feel like your closer to plan "ZZ" rather than plan "A."

    [Scripture read before this sermon] 20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned. 21 Since they had been without food for a long time, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have listened to me ...read more

    God told Joshua that he was standing on Holy Ground and would have to take off his shoes as a sign that he had surrendered his will to God’s will. That’s how we are going to be over comers too.
