    Casualties Of Divine Service

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 8, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,109 views

    The message explores how Christians can avoid becoming casualties of divine service. There is a high cost demanded of those who will serve Christ, and we must not imagine that we will be spared paying that cost. However, in standing firm with Christ, we will stand victorious.

    “Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, ‘So may the gods do to me and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by this time tomorrow.’ Then he was afraid, and he ...read more

    7 Ways To Walk In Step With The Holy Spirit: How To Live A Victorious Christian Life

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jan 13, 2023
     | 3,154 views

    Christians are to live in lockstep with the guiding of the Holy Spirit . We learn as Christians to be practically guided on a daily basis by the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit who lives in us, guides the direction of our life.

    One of the most important things about the Christian life is that we understand it's a lifelong journey. It starts the moment we receive salvation through Jesus Christ, but it doesn't end there. That is just the beginning. A wise believer ought to see their Christian walk as a journey, ...read more

    From the very beginning of the ministry God has entrusted to me, I have been convinced that Jesus is the focal point of our faith, the reality of any real ministering. You see, in John 12:32 Jesus said, “If I be lifted up I will draw all men to myself.” J

    It seems most appropriate today, being my first time here, to establish common ground. To briefly talk to you about something that is near and dear to my heart, as well as yours would do us both good.

    I want to talk to you about dreams! Specifically, the dream that God has given me for this youth ministry. This morning, when I woke up Caleb to get him ready for school, he mumbled, “Can I just finish my dream?” We all want to finish our dreams.

    Jesus ends His public ministry with three key principles: God’s love commands us to love our neighbors; He sees every action we do (don't be a Pharisee); giving sacrificially is what God requires of us, even if it means giving all we have.

    Questions and Answers Mark 12:28-44 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - This morning we have two things ...read more

     | 29,683 views

    I have often wondered just what Jesus would have seen that day that caused so much righteous anger to rise up within him? Surely these Moneychangers and Shopkeepers were no more frustrating to Jesus than so many of the religious leaders he had encountered throughout His ministry!

    TITLE: NOT IN MY HOUSE! SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 21:10-14 / I PETER 4:17 We have entered into our Third Sunday of Lenten season and preaching around the central theme – “MARCHING TOWARDS CALVARY.” When I read this text a few weeks ago in preparation of this morning’s ...read more

    Sermon: Rest For The Weary Series

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 31, 2023
     | 3,607 views

    Jesus, our blessed Redeemer never became too weary of his labor of love. He ministered to mass crowds, taught the disciples at night, rose early in the morning for prayer, faced relentless opposition and never gave up. Jesus found a rhythm in ministry. He knew when to work, and when to rest.

    Sermon: Rest For the Weary Scripture: Matt 11:25-28 “At that time Jesus prayed this prayer: “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. 26 Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this ...read more

     | 2,464 views

    In this season of change, the Lord is doing His job. The question is, are we doing our job as the Lord commands? "Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation" (2 Cor. 5:18, NKJV).

    Our Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, Lord let Your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven. Lord, You said, "Do nothing from rivalry and conceit" (Philippians 2:3). Help us maintain a servant attitude committed to one faith, one body, and serving one Lord. ...read more

    Jesus Stays On The Road To His Death

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Apr 4, 2021
     | 2,133 views

    Jesus didn’t sit on Death Row. Yet his life was always moving toward that certain and terrible end: He’d be killed on the cross. He knew this, because the Scriptures pointed to it. He knew this, and He predicted it himself more than once during his ministry.

    In some prisons in America there is an area known as Death Row. It’s where those who have been sentenced to die go to wait for the time of their execution. Every day on Death Row is a day closer to death. So for a prisoner, after five or ten years, there might be only 30 days left. Then only 20. ...read more

    Let Your Light Shine At The Peak

    Contributed by James Dina on Oct 29, 2022
     | 2,176 views

    As of March 2022, 42 percent of pastors had considered leaving full-time ministry within the previous year (BARNA Group Survey). Also, only 30% of the leaders in the Bible finished well. This means that 70% fell short of God’s plan for their lives. Our lights must definitely shine at the peak.

    LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE AT THE PEAK "Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any other wood, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest? (Ezekiel 15:2) Jesus disarmed principalities and powers. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. ...read more
