Transference Of Spirits

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Feb 7, 2011

Saul tried to kill David by having him fight a battle with the Philistines.Thinking David would die, and no one would blame Saul. David used the same type of plan with Uriah. Coincidence? I don't think so. Sometimes we pick up bad ideas/attitudes from oth

Who Cares?

Contributed by Paul L Brantley on Apr 5, 2014

We live in a world where it is hard to find people who care. We live in a world where people are willing give money and even time to help people we don’t know. But at the same time, we often ignore people we do know who are in a spiritual pits.

I spent this week with Joseph on his journey and in the pit. I wanted to feel and think what Joseph felt and thought. Listen to Joseph’s thinking, as he approached his brothers. It has been a long walk from Hebron to Shechem to Dothan. My father wanted me to visit my brothers to check up on ...read more

Plundering The Enemies Camp

Contributed by Gregory Smith on Oct 12, 2009

Most Christians don’t realize how much the enemy has stolen. Even if they do, they often don’t know how to get it back. David "plundered" the Philistines camp after his victory over Goliath. We can do the same because Jesus has defeated our enemy.

Introduction: I have been talking about foundations for the entire year. Today I am going to share with you another foundational truth about warfare.

"God's Word Is A Lamp"

Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 22, 2015

When we are trying to find our way through the journey of life, God has given us a spiritual compass to guide our path. That guide is the Bible, God's Holy Word. The truth that we find in the Bible never changes. It will always point us in the same direction. It will always point us to Jesus.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105 I am sure that probably all of you have seen a compass. A compass is used to find the right direction to get you to where you want to go. The compass has four main directions, they are North, South, East and West. The needle ...read more

Buyer's Remorse

Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 2, 2017

Have you ever experienced buyer’s remorse? Just before we buy something major like a car or a house we feel the surge of excitement that comes with getting something new. It’s the same feeling a child has when he or she gets a new toy.

Praying In Great Distress

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Apr 9, 2017

When Jesus was preparing for the greatest ordeal any human would ever face--the one who had never sinned to be cut off from his Heavenly Father--he went to God in great desperation. We can and should do the same when we face the inevitable trials of life.

Matthew 26:36-46 Praying in Great Distress Jesus is our example in all things, and today he shows us how to take our anxious thoughts to God. I heard about a guy who was anxious in his driving. He was cutting off people, weaving in and out of traffic. Then he got inpatient at a yellow light, as ...read more

Add It Up

Contributed by Robert Butler on Jun 16, 2020

I don’t know if this has ever happened to you but it happens to me way too often. I meet someone and at first blush I’m excited because they seem to be as committed to the same ideas as me. However, over time, I realize we aren’t alike as I thought.

Giving Is An Act Of Worship

Contributed by John Dixon on Jul 1, 2019

Clara Null of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma told of living in a small town with one bank and three churches. Early one Monday morning, the bank called all three churches with the same request. “Could you bring in Sunday’s collection right away?” We’re out of one-dollar bills.”

Giving Is An Act Of Worship Proverbs 3:5-10 NASB Giving can be a very touchy subject for many people. The reputation of the Church has been damaged by folks who have abused others for their own selfish gain. But the excesses of a few wicked folks do not absolve you from your responsibilities. ...read more

Anne and I may be driving along the highway, and out of the blue, she will say, “did you see that?” And for some reason, when she does that I am not usually looking in the same direction that she is, and I have to say: “No, what did you see, I missed it.”

Teaching

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 4, 2022

Charles Barkley many years ago, came out and said, "I am not a role model." The truer statement is I am not a good role model or a bad role model, but we are all role models. The same is with teaching. We are all teachers. Some are good and some not so good.

This morning I would like to continue along the lines of what a Christian is and does. I know we are salt and light, and we do this as we are Christlike. But let's consider one other thought today, that Christians are teachers. I know some of you already tuned me out. You say, “Preacher I'm ...read more

Reversing The Curse . . . And Then Some! Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 17, 2022

Did you know that all men die for Adam's sin? It's a biblical concept taught clearly in Romans 5:12-21. In the same way, all men who receive Christ's gift live by Christ's one act of righteousness.

Well, as we all well know, we have reached 2022. And we’ve had a couple tough years as a human race. I remember well in 2020 how many were claiming that was the worst year in recent memory—the worldwide pandemic had shut down much of the world, there was tremendous social unrest in the U.S. and ...read more
