    The Power Of Consistent Prayer Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 22, 2025
     | 409 views

    Prayer is not just a religious routine; it is the lifeline of a believer. Jesus taught us in Luke 18:1 that men ought always to pray and not to faint. Consistent prayer is the key to accessing divine power, guidance, and breakthrough.

    THE POWER OF CONSISTENT PRAYER By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 18:1 Supporting Texts: James 5:16-18, 1 Thessalonians 5:17, Daniel 6:10, Acts 12:5, Matthew 7:7-11 INTRODUCTION: Prayer is not just a religious routine; it is the lifeline of a believer.

    Can Music Heal?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 23, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,765 views

    There has been a growing interest in the healing ability of music within the church. That has led some to explore ancient religious music traditions and practices as people seek supernatural encounters and deeper intimacy with God.

    “Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; make music to the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing, with trumpets and the blast of the ram's horn — shout for joy before the LORD, the King.” (Ps 98:4-6 NIV) Music has always been an ...read more

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Apr 6, 2020
     | 2,110 views

    Jesus says let "yes" be yes and "no" be no. Righteousness must exceed the Pharisees. They surrendered their authenticity to appear more religious. This sermon is an encouragement to live in the opposite manner.

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity Counterfeiters make over a billion dollars a year, making fake designer clothes and handbags. That billion is from the United States, not the rest of the world. These are not cheap knock offs from street vendors; they are well-made fakes. There's an ...read more

    Party On! Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2019

     | 2,664 views

    We all know that there were parties last evening, some that lasted well into the morning hours. But I venture to say that these parties were not celebrations of religious faith, such as the ones implied by today’s Scriptures.

    Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God Party On! Today’s Scriptures are so brief that if our minds are not focused, we might not remember any of them. I’ve wondered if that was an act of mercy on the part of those who back in the 1960's put together the three-year cycle of readings, and saw New ...read more

    The Concept Of Hell! Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 3, 2022
     | 1,325 views

    Hell, in many religious traditions, refers to the domicile, usually beneath the earth, of the unredeemed deceased or the spirits of the damned. From the underworld come dreams, ghosts, and demons, and in its most terrible areas malefactors (reprobates)

    Tom Lowe 2/3/2012 The Concept of Hell! There is no mention of hell in the Old Testament. The Old Testament talks about Sheol, which is a watery underworld where everyone went, whether they were Jew or Gentile, good or bad. In its archaic sense, the term hell refers to the underworld, a deep pit or ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,820 views

    The war between the political and spiritual leaders is an age-old issue. It exists time immemorial. Religious leaders are raised by God, whereas political leaders inherit from their forefathers, are elected by their citizens through democracy.

    To show truth can be learned and fully understood; and that, it is not the product of one’s feelings or religious experiences. This lesson deals with the truth of the gospel; that was revealed by the Holy Spirit unto the apostles, that affords the forgiveness of sins.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. Discipleship of Christ: “Ye Shall Be My Disciples Indeed” 2. Doctrine of Christ: “Ye Shall Know The Truth” 3. Deliverance of Christ: “The Truth Shall Make You Free” Remarks. 1. In our lesson today, Jesus describes to those Jews who followed him how they were to become His ...read more

    Jesus Was Rejected Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Apr 23, 2024
     | 771 views

    Jesus was rejected by his family, by his local religious leaders, by Judas Iscariot, by Simon Peter, and then finally by God. So expect to be rejected if you share the Good News of Jesus Christ and him crucified.

    The Old Testament word “hadel” is used in this verse that is transliterated as rejected, but this word has also been used in the Bible to mean forbearing. The word “hadel” is used in Ez 3: when God told the prophet that some will listen to the message but there will also be those who refuse to ...read more

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 9, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,349 views

    The call to consecration is not merely a religious act but a transformational process where we yield ourselves completely to God. Let us explore this theme through Scripture, exegesis, and the insights of renowned Christian authors and preachers.

    Consecrated for Divine Purpose Romans 12:1-2 Introduction: Today, we embark on a journey of understanding and renewal as we delve into the concept of consecration—a season of setting ourselves apart for God's divine purpose.

     | 3,454 views

    Jesus is the word that , performs changes, establishes, heals, and delivers. From the beginning, God set it in order that His word would always rule. Now he is in us and we have to carry out his work!

    Through The Word You Have A Work! Sermon By: Evangelist Robert Osborne 1 Peter 1:17-25 17.

    Observations On Obedience

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on May 27, 2004
    based on 38 ratings
     | 5,560 views

    God?s requirement of obedience is not something He does to us, but something He does for us. Though today?s world may see living without rules as a dream, it would only result in destruction.

    Observations On Obedience Text: Deut.6: 24 Intro: Obedience is not a topic dealt with too often these days. We hear a lot about options, but not much about obedience. The former term implies no set standard to follow, while the latter implies the existence of some absolutes. The “no ...read more

     | 8,149 views

    Satan’s presence in our world is real. The Bible clearly teaches that our struggle to live righteously is a struggle against the dark forces of Satan that seeks to rule us. It is a struggle against the powerful rulers of darkness.
