Demonstration Of Royal Service Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 1, 2024

Jesus had so little time left for His disciples to learn that the way to glory is through service and not through position and authority.

Just before tonight’s passage, as recorded in Luke 22 and Mk. 10, the disciples had been arguing over who would hold the leading positions in the government Jesus was about to set up. The discussion was heated. They were caught up in the ambition for position and power and authority. Surely this ...read more

Family Services For God

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on May 11, 2024

Joshua said, “But for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15 NLT) I want to use this opportunity to inspire parents to view God's service as a shared family endeavor.

Often, Satan sows seeds of discouragement to deter families from serving God. When a parent is actively involved in God's service, questions may arise about why their children should also be deeply involved. For instance, if one parent is a choir leader, gatekeeper, or priest, and one or two of ...read more

Contributed by William Meakin on Sep 23, 2024

A servant is defined as a person who regularly performs duties for others, especially someone employed in a house on domestic duties or as a personal attendant.

Max De Pree, an American businessman and writer once remarked: “The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant.” Philippians 2:5-7 reminds us: “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though ...read more

Kingdom Service And Promotion

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Mar 7, 2025

This message is a prophecy (Word from the Lord) delivered at our church that explains who we are in the kingdom of God and our responsibilities as its citizens.
