    "Beating Around The Bush"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 30, 2013
     | 5,320 views

    We fast forward now and Moses enters on the scene again at the age of 40. He was perhaps one of the most unlikely candidates for leadership that we find in the OT.

    “Beating Around the Bush” Exodus 3:1-14 I remember clearly a time in my life when I had gotten to a point where God was speaking to me about making some major changes in my life and ministry. God was about to do something new in my life and the details were not very clear for me. Can ...read more

     | 5,510 views

    Christians can discover more ways to serve those in need by asking themselves questions like: Who else? What else? Where else, in order to act as sheep rather than goats.

    What More Can I Do? (Revised) The Parable of the Talents dealt with the obligation of people who have received special gifts to increase them, add “interest" by applying and developing them. Today in the Judgment of the Nations referring to ordinary Christians rather than just the leadership, ...read more

     | 372 views

    A secret is something that is hidden from the generality of the people but known to some individuals or a group of individual. It may also be something that is necessary for a breakthrough or as information which has been kept away from the eyes and minds of many people

    The Secrets of Personal Developments. 29 The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 14, 2023
     | 3,277 views

    As it turns out, the effects of gratitude and showing appreciation can be important for our overall well-being for several reasons I attempt to uncover in this lesson.

    Appreciation Banquet Sermon - The Benefits of Showing Appreciation Scripture: 2 Samuel 23: 1-5, 13-17 “These are the last words of David: “David, the son of Jesse, speaks—David, the man who was raised up so high, David, the man anointed by the God of Jacob, David, the sweet psalmist of Israel. ...read more

    The Danger Of "mega-Dittos"

     | 2,222 views

    In this discourse, I've reworked several sermons from other preachers with a slightly different emphasis based upon the Contemporary English Version's translation of Matthew 16:23, namely, "You're in the way because you think like everybody else..."

    (If you have found this sermon useful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) Comparing a variety of Biblical versions can be very helpful, and given the fact that the original New Testament texts were written in an old form of Greek, drawing out the ...read more

    My agenda is that at the end of this sermon you are able to state three phrases and mean them with all of your heart: #1 I honestly have no idea what this passage really means. #2 I am so blessed. #3 May I do the same as them.

    BEATITUDES SERIES: PERSECUTED MATTHEW 5:10-12 #Beatitudes INTRODUCTION I have a particular agenda today as we take a look at the last of the beatitudes from Matthew 5. Matthew 5:10-12 is about persecution because that word occurs in verse 10, verse 11, and verse 12. What is my agenda? My ...read more

    Iron, That Floats—even Swims.

     | 5,018 views

    Again ax-heads don't float. Or do they? Maybe it’s time to pray a ridiculous prayer! The Bible say’s, “The iron did swim!” This ranks as one of my favorite miracles in the scripture for a couple reasons. First, this isn't a life or death situation. It's just a borrowed ax head.

    Iron, That Floats—Even Swims. 2 Kings 6:1-7NLT Whenever I counsel people who are wrestling with the will of God. I remind them of a simple truth: “God wants you to get where God wants you to go, more than you want to get where God wants you to go.” I’ll read it once more—it should relieve you from ...read more

    In this sermon, we'll learn about six causes of loneliness and how Jesus cares for those who suffer physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Only His love can fill the void in our hearts.

    Illustration: Robert, a lonely grandfather, meets 80-year-old Martha at a nursing home. Robert likes her. One night he came to Martha's room and proposed to her. When he woke up in the morning, he forgot whether Martha said "yes" or "no" when asked to marry him. Embarrassed, ...read more

    Following Jesus: Not Safe But Saved

    Contributed by Dj Thomsen on Feb 3, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,860 views

    Jesus calls us to be fishers of men, to follow him. He doesn't call us to lives of safety, but of salvation.

    This story that we have in the gospel reading for today is one that makes me smile because I feel like I know exactly what Simon is thinking here in this moment. I have had days like this fishing. Days where I’ve been out for hours and hours and there’s just nothing. And we tried everything, ...read more
