     | 707 views

    In this interesting passage today we look at angels and their protection, deliverance, the will of God and the Lord concerning deliverance at Calvary. We look into taste – taste and see that the Lord is good, and examine Christian taste.

    PSALM 34:7-8 - PART 3 – ANGELIC PROTECTION AND DELIVERANCE, PLUS TASTE AND SEE We are looking at this amazing Psalm today and continuing our thoughts from last time. For those new, this is an alphabetic Psalm, that is, each new thought begins with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet. ...read more

    Enter Through The Narrow Door!

    In this Gospel Lesson we hear our Savior speak words of warning and encouragement. Jesus said that there is only one way to enter heaven. He said that we should make every effort to: “ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW DOOR”

    “How do you get into heaven?” A Sunday school teacher asked that question of her 2nd grade class. It seemed like a simple question for a group of little Lutherans. But no hands went up. Silence. Crickets. The teacher was confident that the students knew the answer, so she waited patiently. ...read more

    Power Of Prayer

    Contributed by Amar Chandnani on Dec 9, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 531 views

    Prayer is an expression of sincere desire including praise, thanksgiving, lament, confession and requests. Prayer is our unique opportunity to talk to God, to converse with him which means that Prayer also is a way of God talking to us. Every believer needs the prayers of other believers.

    It is the year 44AD. Around 12 years from the death and resurrection of Jesus. So we can perhaps conclude that the growth of the church has already span 12 years and believers now included a vast number of Jews and Gentiles. With growth comes challenges, strife, arguments and even misunderstanding ...read more

    The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus provide the mercy of God that all of us need. In John 21, the resurrected Jesus appeared offered Peter the mercy of God that Peter so desperately needed.

    A. How great it is to worship the Lord together today, on the Sunday that many refer to as Easter Sunday, or Resurrection Sunday, because it correlates to the Sunday that Jesus arose from the grave two thousand years ago. 1. Praise God that the tomb of Jesus is still empty! 2. Turn to the person ...read more

     | 125 views

    Gratitude transforms us when we respond to Jesus’ mercy with obedience and thanksgiving, drawing us closer to God and shaping our hearts through prayer.

    Some of us walked in today with weary hearts, carrying questions that don’t quiet down when the lights go out. Have you ever felt like those lepers in Scripture—near enough to hear hope, far enough to feel invisible? Maybe you’ve been standing “afar off,” waiting for a word, wondering if God still ...read more

    God’s mercy meets us in our deepest failures; true repentance brings cleansing, renewal, and restored joy for those who honestly turn to Him.

    Some of us walked in today with a knot in the stomach and a stone in the soul. We know the sound of shame. It whispers in the quiet moments, it shouts in the sleepless hours. Guilt that gnaws. Regret that repeats. Failure that fogs the heart. If you’ve ever stared at the ceiling and wondered, Can ...read more

    Jesus’ authoritative word brings transformation, silences evil, and calls us from passive belief to active, obedient faith that surrenders fully to Him.

    Friends, welcome. Some of us arrive carrying questions that kept us awake last night, some with a quiet ache we can’t quite name.

    The sermon calls believers to courageous, costly obedience, trusting God’s sovereignty even when outcomes are uncertain, inspired by Esther’s example of sacrificial faith.

    There’s a holy hush that falls over a room when courage walks in. Not the loud kind that shouts to be seen, but the quiet courage that prays in whispers and stands when knees are weak. We know this courage. We’ve asked for it in hospital hallways. We’ve reached for it at midnight when the house is ...read more
