Devil The Stealer

Contributed by Bala Samson on Jul 10, 2016

Dude, check out your walk with God! When you walk more with the devil, he tends to keep you away from the Savior. Caveat!

Why pull the devil now Luke 8:12”….the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they will not believe and be saved.” Why do we tend to blame the devil and his convoys, every time calamity rattles us, every time a problem needs fixing? Yes, I repeat your ...read more

Deviled Ham

Contributed by Terry Hovey on Mar 30, 2023

Almost as soon as those devils entered those pigs, the whole herd of deviled ham ran down into the sea and drowned themselves.

Have you ever been in the presence of real evil? Now, I’m not talking about someone who cut you off in traffic or someone else who may have cheated you in some way.

Devices Of The Devil Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 22, 2021

A foothold is often associated with rock climbing. And a foothold is where you identify a rock ledge that holds your weight and is large enough for your foot to push on it for leverage. Satan is looking for a moral foothold in your life.

The Bible says a Christian is a changed person. A Christian is someone who puts in work on his character after the Holy Spirit has entered into their lives. God designed the Christian to be someone with a contrasting before and after story. Like HGTV and the fixer-upper homes, a Christian is to ...read more

Resist The Devil Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Aug 28, 2020

I see way too many Christians ineffective in their life because the devil has them tied up in knots. And in the Scriptures, God tells us as Christians what to do, but we are just not doing it. And I believe that it has to do with us not knowing how to resist the devil.

Introduction I would like to begin today’s sermon by asking you a couple of questions? Here is the first question. If someone, in your life, that you trust tells you to do something, how likely are you to do what they tell you? I would say that if I trust them that I am likely to do what they say ...read more

Devices Of The Devil

Contributed by S. R. Manohar on May 10, 2018

Apostle Paul says; "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices" 2 Corinthians 2:11. That means through the Holy Spirit and the Word of God we can be aware of the enemies' devices or strategies that He uses against us.

Devil's Drugstore

Contributed by Rob Watts on Jun 7, 2018

We need to examine ourselves as believers. Are we in the Devil's Drugstore, or in God's?

Could it be that you're failing the test? This afternoon I want us to examine ourselves. A little different ...read more
