     | 6,618 views

    This passage is just a short episode of Jesus walking on the water. But in this episode Jesus shows us opening that He is Someone that we can count on when fear grips our lives.

    Defilement Comes From Within Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,625 views

    It is not the food you eat or religious observation you practice that enables you to claim that you are right with God. Your attitude, behavior, and response to His commands show whether or not your life is defiled before Him.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more

    Praying From Victory (Praying From The New Covenant) Series

    Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Apr 21, 2023
     | 2,889 views

    The cross of Jesus Christ and His resurrection changed everything FOREVER! To know this is power. The strength of the enemy’s power over the believer is only to the extent of the knowledge of Christ and His finished work that you know.

    Notice from my topic I did not say, Praying FOR victory, I said, Praying FROM victory. This is critical to underscore because, often times believers come to God in prayer with the notion or mentality of praying in order to obtain victory in the area of their need. This is not a New Testament or the ...read more
