    Prayer is easy to neglect due to pressing cares and responsibilities of life. However, prayer is our lifeline to heaven for the resources to effectively discharge those responsibilities and live in the strength of the Holy Spirit.

    Pray!!! Luke 11:1-13 Richard Tow 11.15.15 My assignment this morning is to encourage you toward prayer. In 1 Thess.5:17 Paul told the church to “Pray without ceasing.” Don’t stop praying.

     | 3,269 views

    Jesus doesn’t give every answer, and He sometimes sends us on ahead without any certainty that things are going to change. He doesn’t give a sign that will ease every doubt about our future, or worries about our family, or whatever else. Yet we can be confident in all that He has said.

     | 1,871 views

    Lets face the reality of this. Much, if not most, of what we have to thank God for comes to us through other people. They are the primary tools of God to achieve His purpose in history.

    My earliest childhood memories of being in church are of the rope that I could ride. The thick rope hung down through the ceiling in the church entry way. I was so little that when the rope was pulled to ring the bell in the belfry, I could hang on to it and get a ride as it would pull me up off ...read more

    Paul demonstrated the power of a thankful heart to overcome enormous negative circumstances. Prayer is not the dark garment of despair. Prayer is a bright garment of praise that will dress up the soul even on the dreariest of days.

    God had Moses lead the Israelites out of Egypt - but he did it the hard way - by hardening Pharoah’s heart. Why is it that sometimes God makes us go through things the hard way?

And in my reading, I noticed something strange: · First, God commanded Moses to go to Egypt, where he had fled from years before, and to go and risk his life confronting the Pharoah. · Then God turns around and says, in effect, “Oh, by the way, ...read more
