    Battles are not only waged on the battlefield, but often far away at a military headquarters in a room dubbed a “War Room.” Our Prayer Closet is our War Room. It's where we join with God to see the visible manipulated by the invisible.

    The Danger Of Doing What Is Right In Your Own Sight

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Aug 6, 2023
     | 5,166 views

    The church has had far too much in common with the children of Israel back in the days when there was no king. We must cry out against the Spiritual, Moral, and Ethical Depravity that is being allowed to happen in the churches today.

    The Danger of Doing What is Right in Your Own Eyes By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. PRAYER: SCRIPTURES: - Judges 17 – 21 Deuteronomy 12:8 says, “You shall not do as we are doing here today, everyone doing what is right in his own eyes”.

    Obedience to God and His word has rewards, and disobedience also has its consequences. The experiences of some from the bible will help us learn how we too can be recipients of God’s blessings in our lives.

    We read in Genesis 22:18, “Every nation on the earth will be blessed through your descendants. I will do this because you obeyed me." (ERV) We also read in Genesis 3:14, “So the LORD God said to the snake, "Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all the wild or domestic ...read more

     | 10,183 views

    Jesus said the stones would cry out if His disciples didn't praise Him. We’re looking at why praise had to rise, what kind of praise they offered, the opposition to His praise, and how all this effects us.

    MUST THE STONES CRY OUT? Lk. 19:35-40 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Coming Up Short 1. A robber went into a convenience store. He picked up a pack of gum and approached the cashier.

    Do we value the grace of God, and how can we continue in the amazing grace that God has lavished on us? Can bitterness hinder us from obtaining God’s grace? Read on to find the answers to these questions.

     | 1,503 views

    In a previous sermon we dealt with what John had to say about how we can KNOW that WE KNOW THE LORD.

    We discovered that anyone can say that they know the Lord...anyone! All one has to say is, “I know the Lord.” John used the word, “saith,” numerous times. He referred to it in: • 1 John 2:4. He said, “HE THAT SAITH, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not ...read more
