    The Pentecost event tells us of our great need of the Holy Spirit. We must be convinced of two truths: (1) Lives can only be changed with His help, and (2) we can witness effectively only by His power.

    Today is Pentecost Sunday. We want to read about the birth of the church in Acts 2:1-8. We celebrate the birth of Jesus, and everyone knows it is Christmas. We remember His resurrection, and most people recognise that Easter is a special day to the Christians. But when we talk about Pentecost – ...read more

    We talk about prayer, study about it and state how we should pray. But how many of us - practically speaking - have untapped the power of prayer?

    The Power of Prayer Theme: what makes prayer so powerful INTRODUCTION A. Satan knows… 1. If he can afflict the people of God… 2. Or somehow weaken their faith… 3.

    We love power in all its forms. But amazingly, when God set out to save the world, He sent His Son in abject weakness. Could it be that this is His typical approach?
