    We need to feel that fire again. We need to feel it in the heart again. Like days of old, where people were cut to the heart, and when Jesus up out the scriptures to the disciples and their hearts burned. Let us see the fire from heaven again.

    BURN OUR HEARTS AGAIN TEXT: 1 KINGS 18:1-46 THEME: LORD MAKE OUR HEARTS BURN FOR YOU I remember 1 Kings 18 preached at Heritage Christian University during lectureship one year.

    Jesus told this parable so He might teach us to pray and not faint. That word faint means to lose courage, to lose heart or hope. It means that you won’t want to give up, which speaks of discouragement. The Lord’s only answer for discouragement in life wa

He told his wife to get all his money together, put it in a sack, and then hang the sack from the rafters in the attic.

    It doesn’t take much to twist genuine faith into something sick and destructive. There is a fine line between an unshakeable faith in a God who will never let His holy city.

    I’ve been to Jerusalem. It was nearly three years ago now, and my memory has faded somewhat, but I’ve got some slides I can show you! No, don’t panic! I haven’t got them with me!

    Jesus Needs a Break! Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around..

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion.
