    The Joy Of The Lord Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Sep 17, 2012
     | 7,200 views

    There is a misunderstanding of joy. Joy is not giddy or goofy Christians. Instead Joy is the pleasure of the presence of God in your life. The world may work against but if God is for you the Joy of the Lord is your strength! Explains what is needed f

    Intro: Joy is not syrupy or sappy, sentimental or seasonal. Joy is not happiness, because happiness depends on what happens to you. Joy is also not the absence of sorrow. Psalm 16:11 “You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal ...read more

    Abomination To The Lord Series

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 14, 2012
     | 8,109 views

    We see the spiritual lives of Christians today in a state of confusion and disarray. Reason? Lack of Biblical teachings and knowledge.

    ABOMINATION TO THE LORD! Not every sermon I’ve preached or written were a home run and a blockbuster hit; many have boomerang and hit me back instead – this one I write today may be one. Just a caution before I proceed! We have talked a lot of ‘joy of the Lord’, ...read more

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Apr 19, 2012

    Following Jesus is more than getting him to cheer for our "team." It is making sure our "team" is on his side.

    1. Preparations In April, 1988 the evening news reported on a photographer who was also a skydiver. He had jumped from a plane along with several other skydivers and filmed the group as they individually dove out of the plane and opened their parachutes.

     | 12,462 views

    Cling to the Lord, because you can count on Him. Don't cling to the world, because it will con you.

    Several years ago, Our Daily Bread told the story of an elderly man, who lay in a hospital with his wife of 55 years sitting at his bedside. “Is that you, Ethel, at my side again?” he whispered. “Yes, dear,” she answered. He softly said to her, “Remember years ago when I was in the ...read more

A PROPHETIC WORD TO THE REMNANT! 2 Chronicles 29-32. “After these things, and the establishment thereof, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself.” (2Chron. ...read more

    The Epiphany Of The Lord

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 8, 2018
     | 5,544 views

    Allowing oneself to be invaded and rearranged by objective value is what makes life worth living.

    The Epiphany of the Lord is when Christ was made known to the magi, who represent all the nations. Today, when we say that someone has had an epiphany, we mean that the person has had a moment in which they have achieved a realization, an awareness or a knowledge of something. An AHA! MOMENT, ...read more

    A short sermon for a funeral service. I wrote this talk for the funeral of a Christian person.

    In Nahum 1.7—a book in the Bible not often heard—the prophet Nahum says, “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him” (Nahum 1:7). It may seem counter-intuitive to consider this verse at a funeral when death is clearly on our minds. How can we say that the ...read more

    We have the tendency to fall apart during difficulties in our lives and not able to see beyond them as Nahum was able to see far beyond what his eyes and emotions were able to see. He had a deeper appreciation of God’s Grace.

    TITLE: THE LORD IS GOOD SCRIPTURE: NAHUM 1:7 I lift as a thought this morning the powerful first four words found in this Verse – THE LORD IS GOOD. I must admit, this book is a difficult book to read and certainly challenging to preach from. NAHUM is labeled as one of the “minor prophets.” ...read more

    What is the Glory of the Lord and can we experience it today?

    Today we finish the Book of Exodus. God gave instructions on how to relate with Him, especially the celebration of that relationship with worship.
