    In the previous sermon we looked at Romans 8:1-4, and we learned some marvelous things about our new position in Christ Jesus.

    We learned that while we ALL were once IN ADAM, something happened when heard of salvation in Jesus: • We recognized how dreadful our sins were, and repented of them and trusted in Christ • We were immediately justified by the blood of Christ And now we are no longer IN ADAM, but we are IN CHRIST. ...read more

     | 5,960 views

    Gideon responded positively to the initial conversation about God and God called him to save Israel from the Midianites, who oppressed them for 7 years.

    Before we look at our main passage for today, open your Bibles to Hebrews 11 for a moment…. Look at verses 1-2…… and then we read the “ancients” men and women who lived by faith believing in what God said but actually doing it! Look at Hebrews 11:32-35…. God called Gideon a man of faith. Gideon, a ...read more

     | 1,262 views

    You may never know when you will be picked, or chosen, to do or be in a position of prominence. The outcome of that said choosing will depend upon the state of your heart.

    In this chapter, the king chooses a new queen. In Chapter 1, King Ahasuerus, had a party to show off his queen, Vashti. She refused so the king banished her and stripped her royalty. After banishing Vashti, the king sent officers out to gather fair young women of all the lands to choose a new ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,655 views

    "Blessed are those who mourn." How does this beatitude instruct us to position ourselves for revival? Is there a mindset here necessary for operating in a revival?

    Intro How do we posture ourselves to be used by God? What attitudes of heart invite the activity of the Holy Spirit in our lives? We find answers to these questions in the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus began that sermon in Matthew 5 with the Beatitudes. In the Beatitudes he shares eight attitudes of ...read more

    Work is both fundamental and difficult, but with diligence, persistence, and the strength from God, we can approach it with a positive attitude and see it as a gift rather than a burden.

    Today, we're gonna chat about something we all have to deal with - work. Whether it's schoolwork, chores, or a part-time job, we all know what it's like to work. You know, work has been around since the very beginning. Even before humans were created, God was working. He set up this pattern of ...read more

    Explore the metaphorical significance of leaven in the Bible, emphasizing its power as an influence, the dangers of negative influence (bad leaven), and the blessings of positive influence (good leaven).

    Good morning, family. I want to talk with y'all today about something we encounter every day, yet we often overlook its deeper meaning: leaven. Yes, I'm talking about that stuff we use in bread. But beyond the kitchen, leaven, in the Bible, is a powerful metaphor. It can stand for influence, both ...read more

    Because Christ is enthroned above all, believers can live with confidence, purpose, and authority, trusting their secure position and God’s ongoing work in their lives.

    Friends, can we take a breath together and remember who our God is? He is the Lifter of our heads, the Steady Hand in our storms, the Shepherd who knows every scar and every sigh.

    That Year!

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Dec 14, 2021
     | 1,734 views

    The words "That year” should not be overlooked and hastily read because God’s plan is inside it, God would keep specific people in specific positions for His purpose, are you listening?

    This is heaven’s strategy! John 11:49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all”.. I am so excited about the above portion, especially the words “who was high priest that year”! Stay with me for a profound word.. “That year” should not ...read more

     | 1,242 views

    Where has church leadership failed? How should all pastors (shepherds) behave towards the flock of God? We look at Peter’s requirements for this high position. Remember the words “accountability to the Chief Shepherd”.

    Don't Judge Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 5, 2022
     | 2,532 views

    God does not give human beings authority to judge the righteousness of others using our preferences as the standard. None of us are perfectly righteous ourselves. We are in no position to pronounce judgment because we can be guilty of sin.

    Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 7:1-6 NIV (Don't Judge) 1 Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no ...read more
