    Praying In The Last Days PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 155 views

    The sermon calls us to seek God above all else, finding rest, confidence, and purpose in His presence amid life’s storms and uncertainties.

    Some days the heart feels like a hummingbird in a hurricane—fluttering, fragile, and longing for a safe branch. We scroll and scurry and strive, yet the soul still whispers for something steady. We want a place to rest. We want a Person to hold us. We long for something clear when everything else ...read more

     | 134 views

    The sermon calls us to sincere generosity, prayer, and forgiveness, rooted in God’s love, seeking His approval over others, and living as beloved children.

    Some of us arrived today with hearts that feel hurried, hands that feel heavy, and hopes that feel thin. The week may have been loud, and your soul may feel a little quieted by weariness. If that’s you, you’re in good company. Jesus meets people like us—people with a pair of tired eyes and a prayer ...read more

     | 135 views

    When life falls apart, faith refuses to panic, seeks God’s strength and guidance, and trusts Him to restore what’s been lost.

    Some days smell like smoke. The kind of day when you pull into the driveway and something feels off. The porch light is on, but peace is off. The phone rings, the doctor calls, the boss texts, the door closes—and your heart drops. The room looks the same, but everything has changed. Ashes in the ...read more

     | 158 views

    Trusting God with our decisions brings peace and guidance; through prayer and seeking His wisdom, He shapes our lives and directs our paths.

    Most of us know the look of a crowded calendar and a crowded heart. The inbox pings, the bills stack, the decisions loom. We stand at the crossroads and try to make sense of the map, squinting at arrows and options. Have you felt that pull—wanting to do the right thing, yet unsure which door to ...read more

    When overwhelmed and uncertain, honestly seek God in prayer, fix your eyes on Him, and trust Him to guide and deliver you through every challenge.

    Some days feel like you wake up to a wall of wind. The inbox pings with pressure. The headlines hum with heaviness. A diagnosis raises questions you never wanted to ask. A bill arrives that your bank account can’t meet. And your heart—your faithful, beating companion—feels like it’s carrying a ...read more

    Arachnophobia For Some – However Spiders Are Wonderful Teachers Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 1, 2022
     | 2,425 views

    Nature is a great teacher and by observing God's creatures there is much we can learn for our Christian lives. In this message we examine the habits of spiders to gain insights for our lives. God bless you all.

    ARACHNOPHOBIA FOR SOME – HOWEVER SPIDERS ARE WONDERFUL TEACHERS I prepared this about 20 years ago, so when I use “today”, well - it was back then. Here we make applications to Christian living derived from the habits of spiders. This is an address rather than a sermon and prepared for smaller ...read more

    If Your Presence Does Not Go With Us, Do Not Bring Us Up From Here

    Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011
    based on 9 ratings
     | 47,382 views

    We haven’t fully experienced God’s presence in our life because we haven’t been actively seeking it. In other words, we only seek God’s presence when we find ourselves in tight spots, or when we want something. Why do we act this way?

    A great truth about life is that at times things that happen can hold us back. In other words, sometimes we experience situations, or we have to go through circumstances that weaken and/or discourage us. Sometimes we have to go through situations that rob our peace, and attempt to make us lose ...read more

    Message 11 - 1 Thessalonians Chapter 5:15-17 – Vengeance, Rejoicing Always, And Praying Without Ceasing Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 31, 2022
     | 2,517 views

    Do not seek vengeance on others or render evil to anyone. Injustice is everywhere but leave it in the Lord’s hands. Then we have the words “Pray without ceasing” and we look at a lot of references for that. We will consider joy and rejoicing as well.

    MESSAGE 11 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:15-17 – VENGEANCE, REJOICING ALWAYS, AND PRAYING WITHOUT CEASING There is a fair bit of scripture in this message. It deals with vengeance, injustice, persecution and rejoicing and we look at a lot of verses dealing with those matters. PART 1 ...read more

    18 Things To Rid Yourself Of To Be Happy

    Contributed by Jeff Hagan on Feb 10, 2017
     | 9,419 views

    There is nothing wrong with wanting to be happy in and of itself. However, biblically there is a difference between "happiness" and "joy." Here is a list of things to rid your life of as you seek to find happiness which will hopefully lead to true joy.

    Introduction: Everyone, believer or non-believer, wants to achieve happiness. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be happy as long as it is not our end all goal. Other than not having a relationship with Christ, the biggest thing that holds us back from accomplishing our dreams is, ...read more

    May we remember that Jesus Christ came to save everyone from the greatest to the least and everyone in between no matter what. May we have a healthy fear, awe, and respect for our God Almighty. May we commit ourselves to being witnesses about the birth of Christ.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 5, 2017
     | 15,359 views

    This is a study of the Pearl of Great Price -- Jesus Christ. It's also a study of the Merchant who's seeking fine pearls. We also look at the ancient practice of pearl diving & how those pearls were traded until they reached the civilized world.

    THE PEARL OF GREATEST PRICE Matt. 13:44-46 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Too Many Kids -- Katlyn Yoder 1. Desperate for a child, a couple asked their priest to pray for them.

    Like the Magi, we are all on a star trek. Some are searching for something; some may be the star God uses to guide others to Jesus. The magi weren’t wise because they sought Jesus; we call them wise because they found Jesus.
