Sermons on Racing Time:

It Is Time For Renewal

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 4, 2021

The world is going through dark times, yet we see people standing together as bright torches shining through the blackest night. Others in great suffering cannot keep their faith and kneel to the ground in discouragement, let us renew our minds, take courage, share our faith and keep working.

Hag 2:1 in the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, 2 "Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, 3 ...read more

It Is Time To Rebuild

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 4, 2021

Before Zerubbabel can lead into the future, God must rebuild his faith and confidence. Zerubbabel is leading in a hostile environment with rumors of his enemies plaguing his mind. How could a governor so limited and weak protect God’s people? God rebuild the man!

Hag 2:18-23 “Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the LORD's temple was laid, consider: 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Do the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree still yield nothing? From this day ...read more

Redeeming The Time Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 30, 2021

New Year's: Kairos (God’s time) vs. kronos (the devil’s time). Kairos looks for what God is getting ready to do in the present moment; but kronos is a distraction that keeps people from using their lives - and time - wisely for the Lord.

To begin our message, I want to point out a couple of concerns we often hear expressed by pastors and church leaders, which are: 1.) Christians rarely share their faith, and 2.) Christians are not going to church as often as they once did. If these concerns are legitimate – which I believe they are ...read more

A Time To Stand Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

What are some specific circumstances that signal oppression by a government? And, as believers, what should be our first course of action, and when should we speak the truth?

In our last message in this series, I asked the following questions: “What would we, as believers, do if our country ever came under siege by a foreign nation that did not believe in God or His Son, Jesus Christ?” “How could we practice our Christian faith and live according to biblical principles ...read more

A Time To Kneel Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

This message looks at some tactics the enemy will use to discredit God's people. We can fight back through prayer. Daniel actually stood for his faith while on his knees in prayer.

In our second message from this series, I mentioned how when we live according to biblical principles, working “as to the Lord and not to men” (Colossians 3:23), that we will receive God’s favor and be promoted to a place of prominence. I also cautioned that those who are favored by God are hated ...read more

A Time To Repent Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

Daniel took it on himself to intercede for the entire nation. He was just one person; yet the Lord heard his prayer. God will intervene on behalf of the few who fear His name and seek His face.

In our message today, we’re going to view Daniel’s prayer of repentance for the nation of Israel. Donald S. Whitney says of prayer, that God “expects us to pray just as a general expects to hear from his soldiers in the battle” and that “prayer is a walkie-talkie for warfare, not a domestic ...read more

Hard Times

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 1, 2022

Life is full of ups and downs. God wants us to always stay focused on Him when times or good or bad. Don’t give up on God, but don’t forget about Him either.

For the past few weeks we've been talking about things like betrayal, temptation, and the injustices in our lives. Today I want to group all of that together and just talk a little bit about hard times in general. Life is full of ups and downs. A star quarterback throws a game-winning ...read more

This Is No Time For Sleeping

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Sep 21, 2022

The Christian life is a walk, it's a run, but never forget... it is a fight, and the warfare is real, and we get tired, but we cannot go to sleep. A sleeping saint is a powerless saint and is no threat to the devil.

1 Thessalonians 5:5-9 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. [7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken ...read more

What Is Time?

Contributed by Rolando, Jr Pama on Sep 8, 2023

Time is so important the Bible commands us to “redeem the time.”

What is time? A. Gift from God. Every day of life is a gift. Understanding that God is the giver of life, and that the length of our days are in His hands, we realize that time is a gift from God. James 4.14 “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a ...read more

Just In Time

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 13, 2023

This parable teaches us to keep our eyes focused on the hope that is to come.

In Matthew chapter 24 Jesus laid out what the times just before His return would look like. From Growing Trials to Global Testimony leading to the Great Tribulation and finally the Glorious Trumpet.

What seemed odd was that it seemed the more their team lost the more ...read more
