Grain Of Wheat Principle

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Feb 9, 2018

“Lord, protect me from the things I want. If they're not in accordance with your will. ~Amen.”

Lent5B You can tell that Jesus eat whole grains by his analogy of a kernel of wheat falling to the ground and dying to produce life. It was in reference to his sacrificial death, but he gives it to us as an over-arching spiritual principle of dying to selfish desires, e.g. like the ...read more

How To Get Up When Sin Drags You Down

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 11, 2021

He was a great king, very passionate, the commander-in-chief, with a heart after God, yet Satan trapped him in the net of sin. God’s king must operate by a different standard tha the world. When David’s conscience was awakened, he expresses a heartfelt desire to be right with God.

Sermon – “How to get up When Sin Drags You Down” Ps 51:1 (A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.) “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 ...read more

Psalm 51 Title: "Prayer For Pardon And Purity” Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 3, 2021

Psalm 51 was composed after David was confronted about his adultery with Bathsheba (2 Samuel 12:1-25). The psalmist is ill (v. 8), perhaps near death (v. 14), and longs to be healed. Yet far weightier than that physical longing is his passionate desire for forgiveness.

Restore The Joy

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 21, 2017
