Sermons on Plot Against Joseph:

One Against Thousand!

Contributed by Bala Samson on Sep 16, 2013

Do not feel insignificant, small or wormy and curl yourself inside a shell like a snail; look not at the circumstances but meditate the Word that says, ‘One man of you puts to flight a thousand’, and take courage!

One against thousand! Joshua 23:10 “One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the LORD your God who fights for you, just as He promised you.” One single man stood boldly against the atrocities towards the black in South Africa and brought about terrific changes. Nelson ...read more

Against All Odds Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 20, 2019

Nehemiah has to face the challenges of doing something he was not familiar with but it is the will of God. He has to inspect the wall, motivate the people and contend with the oppositions.

We had a remarkable breakthrough in chapter 2 when Nehemiah was granted the opportunity to see the King, after 4 months of praying and waiting. • Even with all that praying, it wasn’t a simple thing for Nehemiah to seek the King’s favour. He was very much afraid (2:2). • Imagine asking for leave ...read more

Defense Against Discouragement

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 22, 2020

The children of Israel have just had a great victory and deliverance from Egypt. They crossed the Red Sea. They are praising the Lord for what He has done.

In the Baptist churches alone, there are over 1,000 preachers a year that leave the ministry, why? There is no way of numbering the Christians that forsake Christ and His church, just simply give up and quit. Why is this going on? I think the main reason is because of discouragement. I think this ...read more

Standing Against Division

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jun 11, 2020

This message is about what a spiritual attack looks like and what can be done about it.

Do you remember the record where Peter rebukes Jesus for telling the disciples He was going to die in Jerusalem? Of course you do. Turn with me to Matthew 16.

A Warning Against Conflict

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Oct 28, 2025

The Charge Against Him

Contributed by Bruce Lee on May 28, 2025

Building Against Opposition Series

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Mar 6, 2021

Just as Nehemiah was giving the call to build the walls of Jerusalem, each of you also have a calling. But know that it is easier to quit than to commit. Do not listen to the words and criticism of your opposition and focus on the word of God.

Building Against Opposition Nevertheless, we made our prayer to our God, and because of them we set a watch against them day and night. - Nehemiah 4:9 It is not about how you start your work. It is whether you finish and how you finish that is important. One of the greatest tests of character ...read more

Guarding Against Deception Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

Once we cast a vision and begin laying hold of the Promised Land, we need to watch out for deceptive people; those who creep into the fold to snatch away our vision, and plunder our hard-earned spoils in an act of spiritual piracy.

Once we cast a vision and begin laying hold of the Promised Land, we need to watch out for dream catchers! Now, when I speak of dream catchers, I am not referring to the round wooden frame resembling a spider’s web, which was handcrafted by the Ojibwa tribe of Native Americans for the purpose of ...read more

Hope Against Hope Series

Contributed by Christina Milanderb on Sep 13, 2022

It's easy think what we see in the natural is truth because we can touch and feel it but the spiritual realm is more real. In the spiritual realm "it is finished" and we yank that by faith into this realm.

Romans 4:18 "Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be." The Bible without guidance and revelation from the Holy Spirit can seem contradicting at times. Scriptures might seem to clash but ...read more

Hoping Against Hope Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 20, 2022

In Romans 4:18-25, the Apostle Paul shows us through the life and faith of the patriarch Abraham three realities of Biblical hope: 1) Its Analysis (vv. 18–19), 2) Its Assurance (v20- 22), and 3) Its Application (vv. 23–25).

Romans 4:18-25. [18] In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, "So shall your offspring be."
