    In this sermon Dr. Vorce examines the importance of the Ministry of Presence flowing from the believer's life. Using the Good Samaritan, the Story of Ruth, and Paul's prison experience as examples, he explains the power of both extending and receiving "presence" as a ministry.

    Joseph: From Pit To Palace

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 16, 2025
     | 1,089 views

    Every phase of Joseph’s life was divinely orchestrated. From the pit to slavery, from prison to the palace—none of it was wasted. What others meant for evil, God used for good. Joseph’s journey is proof that your darkest hour can be the gateway to your greatest testimony.

    JOSEPH: FROM PIT TO PALACE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 41:39-44 Supporting Texts: Genesis 37:23-28; Genesis 39:2-4; Genesis 40:23; Psalm 105:17-22; Romans 8:28 INTRODUCTION: The journey of Joseph is one of the most profound illustrations of divine orchestration in Scripture.

     | 8,818 views

    I recently ran across a statistic compiled by a German scholar. He determined that in Paul’s 13 epistles, he uses the term “In Christ” or some form of it ~ “in Him”, “in the Lord” ~ no less than 164 times! Paul loved to talk about Jesus!

    Be Ready When God Comes Calling Series

     | 6,270 views

    Joseph languished in prison for two years after he thought he had a chance to get out. But when Pharaoh came calling suddenly he was ready to serve. So how do we keep "at the ready" when God comes to ask us to serve unexpectedly?

    Verse 1 2 years passes after Joseph gives interpretation to the baker and butler. What must Joseph had thought. After it looked like God was making a way for him to get out of prison – the days were followed by weeks which were followed by months and years – and nothing. You’d think God had given ...read more

    Apostle Paul preached the gospel in such a way that the gospel was heard in every places. But he did not resist the authorities. If they wanted them to put them into prison, he let them. He didn’t shout, “That’s against human freedom.” No, he didn’t. Inst

    Remember My Chains Series

     | 6,518 views

    Like some of Paul’s companions in prison, we may be held back by tasks too small, by shame, or even by our own prejudices. But once we accept our limitations as part of God’s will, they become ways to help others and fulfill our life callings.

    If you suffer severe limitations, what do you wish for? What is your prayer, if you are bound by something that keeps you from doing what you really want to do? Do you wish you could be free from it? Likely you do. Do you even pray that you might have that limitation removed? I expect that I ...read more

    Waiting is difficult but it teaches us lessons that we cannot learn any other way. After he interpreted the dreams of Pharaoh's officials, Joseph thought that his time in prison would soon end. But God had more to teach him as he waits another two years

     | 4,039 views

    Everything we know about God and His workings in our inner persons, we are able to know because of our faith. Even though Paul was a prisoner when he wrote this letter, he remained positive and persevered because he was “rooted and grounded in God’s love”.

     | 347 views

    Every prayer that is offered to God is taken note of and God will answer our prayers in His time and in His own way. Cornelius and Peter are great examples of the amazing ways in which God answers prayers. Let’s pray without ceasing knowing that the answer is one the way.

    For today’s meditation let us read, Acts 10:19-20, Peter was still trying to understand what the vision meant, when the Spirit said, "Listen! Three men are here looking for you. So get ready and go down, and do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them." (GNB) We are going to ...read more
