    Prayer Life Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jul 2, 2022
     | 2,203 views

    The very simple parameter to know the will of God for your daily life actions and decisions is, even after your fervent prayer, if you still struggle to go ahead with your decision which is the clear parameter that it’s not the will of God.

    Mark 1:35-39, Prayer Life of Jesus Greetings: The Lord is Good, his love endures forever. Introduction: It is said that Satan is afraid of the knees that bend before God. He is not bothered by people who do not pray. He does not bother about the singers, and preachers but only the prayer ...read more

    Some pick and choose whom they feel is worthy of fellowship; basing their judgments on a person’s skin color, nationality, or gender. Jesus, however, was careful to give everyone a chance to believe in Him, no matter what their background.

    The apostle Paul once said that “there is no partiality with God” (Romans 2:11); and he also declared, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal 3:28). James admonished, “My brethren, do not hold ...read more

    “A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you’re looking down, you can’t see Something that’s above you” Pride is something else in our life that has to go before pressing into God’s best. “Why is that?” you may

    Forget It!

    In order to press on, to move forward, in the Christian life, we must first "forget" the past. We must forget the sins of others and our own sins and mistakes; we must forget our successes and failures; we must forget our vision of how our life would turn out.

    My text this morning is a familiar one, from Paul’s letter to the Philippian church, chapter three, verses twelve through fourteen. Let me set the context. Paul begins by listing his credentials as an authentic descendant of Abraham, in rebuttal to those who were attacking him and his message. ...read more

     | 289 views

    We must heed the warning of the Lord; it is the same warning Isaiah preaches here! But, why? Because He is returning to judge the Earth - not to scare us, but to prepare us! We must know that He is not a God of fear, but of love because He gives us sufficient warning of what is ahead!

    Isaiah, Part 11 Why do the rescued praise the Lord? Isaiah 26:7-21 (Wed: 27:1-13) Introduction - Welcome to Seasons! We are so glad you are here today. - Last week, we saw God’s people praise Him during His judgments because: • His people are kept under His protection in a city created by ...read more

    There are certain tasks in ministry that are too big to handle by yourself, so you need to select and train a teammate. Moses enlisted Joshua as his teammate, and mentored him in envisioning and realizing the dream of the Promised Land.

    You have fought the good fight, you have stayed the course, you have kept the faith (2 Timothy 4:7), and you are now on the precipice of realizing your hard sought-after calling. In pursuit of God’s best you may have wrestled with and overcome some internal spiritual battles, and individually ...read more

    A lot of grumpy bunkem occurs in outraged articles in the press about how our country isn't like what is was in the "good ol' Christian days" - but these grumpy ol' codgers have forgotten the truth and joy of the Easter message!

    What stories have you seen about Easter in the news? {take any suggestions} Two jumped out at me - and both of them were about Easter Eggs. In the first story a Doctor Andrew Kelso had written an article advising people not to scoff all their Easter Eggs in one go. There was an uproar. He can’t ...read more

    Suffering comes to everyone. In fact there is not one person who can escape the sting and pain of suffering. However, when we understand the possible sources of our suffering, then we are in a position to move ahead in life as we seek God’s purposes.

     | 7,927 views

    We can look back to what God did for us in 2005, or ahead to what He wants to do for us in 2006. We can look both ways, but we can only step out one way ... and that should be in faith.

    Something happened a few hours ago. Something I believe each of us must come to terms with. What was it? The clock struck midnight, and in so doing, we had to say good-bye to one year, but we got to say hello to a brand new year. We go through this each year, but I am not sure just how much ...read more
