Sermons on Restore My Faith:

Matthew 8:5-13 When My Belief And His Authority Collide Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Feb 23, 2010

DOES THIS MEAN THAT I CAN BELIEVE FOR OTHERS TO BE HEALED even if they don't have the faith? It seems to say this to me. Does it to you? But even more importantly is who I have faith in - JESUS, WHO HAS THE AUTHORITY TO HEAL.

Matthew 8:5-13 WHEN MY BELIEF AND HIS AUTHORITY COLLIDE! The first person that Jesus heals as recorded in Matthew was an outcast - a person with leprosy and Jesus told him to keep it a secret. The second person is someone of low social status - a servant. These are people who are the forgotten ...read more

Today we'll be looking at the story of Jesus casting an evil spirit out of a man's son. The sermon title is what the father said to Jesus. If we're honest with ourselves, we could say the same thing. We believe, but sometimes we struggle with unbelief.

Walking By Faith Part 2: Faith That Overcomes Series

Contributed by Dwight Davis on Aug 18, 2023

How can true, Biblical faith help us, to not only "survive" this life in a sin-saturated world, but to thrive?

Faith that Overcomes One of the points I tried to make especially clear in part one of this message is that the enemy of our souls is trying his best to persuade us to neglect or even abandon our faith in God. And, unfortunately, he’s been quite successful—especially so in the last decade or so. ...read more

Warned Of Denial And Desertion Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 24, 2018

Have you ever been cautioned - never say never? Peter and the disciples were told they would deny and desert the Lord, but they vehemently denied they would ever commit such an act. We must seek the Lord and His strength to endure.

Warned of Denial and Desertion Mark 14: 27-31 Our text reveals a critical moment in the lives of the disciples. They had just enjoyed the Last Supper with Jesus in the Upper Room. Having departed, they are making their way to the Garden of Gethsemane. While they are completely unaware, Jesus will ...read more

Peter's Easter

Contributed by Tim White on Apr 1, 2013

From the darkest moment, to the greatest victory and life. That is the power of the Resurrection.

Various Passages All of us either have, or will have at some time, what is defined as the lowest moment in our life. The lowest moment in Jesus’ life truly was when His shattered body was in the grave and He was dead. The joy of the resurrection is that Jesus’ lowest moment was followed ...read more

I Shall Dwell

Contributed by Alvin Hathaway, Sr. on Mar 21, 2009

What's That Smell?

Contributed by Dr. Robert Crowder on Apr 9, 2021

Peter understood the defilements that the world holds. The ways of the world are an “entanglement” to living the Christian walk. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS NOT THE SALVATION OF THE BELIEVER. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS TRUE FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD!

WHAT’S THAT SMELL? 2 Peter 2:20-22 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For it would have been better for ...read more

"he Is Risen!" Now What?

Contributed by Robert Walderman on Mar 18, 2024

He is Risen, but we ask, “What now?” What does it mean for us and how does it impact our lives today? Is it just to be an awesome historical event and left there? The answer is no.

HE IS RISEN! (He is Risen indeed!) That is the shouted declaration of triumph and its reaffirming response. The fact that Christ is risen is the pinnacle of our Christian faith. Christianity stands or falls on the resurrection. The Apostle Paul stated; “For what I received I passed on to you ...read more

As a Believer, Faith, not emotions overcomes the world. As a Believer, Faith, not rational thinking defines who we are. As a Believer, Faith, not rational thinking is the filter through which we see everything. You are a Believer!!

Jesus walked on the earth over 2000 years ago. His Disciples walked with Him, watched Him closely, heard His voice. They were eyewitnesses to His miracles. Yet, even they had trouble taking in everything they were seeing. We are 2000 years removed from those moments. We have to decide whether we ...read more
