    based on 1 rating
     | 1,438 views

    Spiritual laziness is a state of neglect in our spiritual lives, where we become complacent, apathetic, or disengaged from our pursuit of God. It can lead to stagnation, missed opportunities, and a lack of growth in our faith.

    Title: OVERCOMING SPIRITUAL LAZINESS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Proverbs 6:9-11 "How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—and poverty will come on you like a thief and ...read more

    The Barren Shall Bear Fruit

    Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Jan 20, 2023
     | 1,812 views

    You may be a believer for a number of years and you may long for a blessing in your life. God may give us barrenness so that we will come to the end of ourselves and recognize that it is God who gives the increase.

    THE BARREN SHALL BEAR FRUIT (by brother Tarran Dookie) SARAH Gen 18:9-15 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent. And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it ...read more

    Can we tell time? Can we recognize seasons? Can we tell when the winds of change are blowing? Our time is finite! When life knocks you down, get up with passion.

    Not all messages that a preacher preaches get finished. Many factors come into play that can interrupt the sermon. Some are from the enemy; yet sometimes it is God Himself that intrudes for a more lofty reason.

    Abbreviated Messages Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. Many kinds of messages: encouragement, challenge, exhortation, consolation, prophetic, etc. Most of them get preached to the last point. ...read more

    A prophetic description of Alexander the Great's progress south conquering the traditional enemies of Israel by divine providence & the deliverance of Jerusalem. But the total prophecy does not point to this conquer's success but to another Hero's success

    This can be a difficult text to preach if there is current conflict in your church. This treatment moves the application to the spiritual plane where our true enemy is working to discourage and destroy God’s people.

Ephesians 6:12 Please turn to the person sitting next to you this morning and tell them: "You ...read more

     | 5,299 views

    Recognizing the every moment of my worship is directed towards God changes every moment of my worship. When we read from the Pslams it is quite obvious that the object of their ’obsession’ was not themselves!

    God is the Audience of My Worship Gordon Dahl said, “Most middle-class Americans tend to worship their work, work at their play, and play at their worship.” William Temple, the renowned archbishop of Canterbury, defined worship as quickening the conscience by the holiness of God, feeding the mind ...read more

    Dead Mules Don't Work

     | 4,687 views

    Too many Christians settle for being forgiven and fail to recognize that dead sinners do not disobey God. We can live in obedience because we are alive to God and dead to sin.

    My purpose is to be the Holy Spirit’s second witness calling God’s people in my care to surrender their lives to Jesus and to live in obedience to him. Response Goal: Individuals prompted by the Holy Spirit will surrender their lives to God in prayer – at the altar rail if they want to prayer ...read more
