    I believe that many believers today are hearing the call of the Holy Spirit to move positionally into a higher place in God, when we think about the word elevate automatically what comes to mind is that God is lifting up, God is raising up individuals for

    Re 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, (Come up hither), and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

     | 10,542 views

    I want to begin this morning by asking you a personal question and I want you to respond by lifting your hand. How many of you would say that you have either faced a giant in the last year or that you are facing one now?

    “Facing Your Giant” 1st Samuel 17 David Henderson, Pastor I want to begin this morning by asking you a personal question and I want you to respond by lifting your hand.

    Name Above All Names

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 2, 2009
    based on 19 ratings
     | 9,236 views

    If the name is Jesus, everything is in that name! His name is the source of our salvation. His name is the hope of our hearts. His name can lift the greatest burdens. His name can comfort the broken heart ... His Name is above all names.

    Opening illustration: Well, in the Bible, names are very important and they are significant in other cultures as well. Talking about the Mexican Indians, and somehow or another something of their culture comes up, and the face is very important to an Indian, just as it is in the Orient, we know of ...read more

    A New Day

    Luke focuses his Gospel on the theme of reversal in which Jesus is said to have turned the values of status upside down. In Jesus’ upside down world, the poor are lifted up, the oppressed are set free and Jesus, God’s son forgives sins.

    A New Day!! INTRO: It’s a new day. Not just any new day, it is the first day for a new year. Only a week ago we had Christmas. And today we will look at the relevance of this baby Jesus who as a man so radically changed the world. The reading today demonstrates this and is found in Luke ...read more

    We all make dumb mistakes. Jephthah certainly did when he made a vow to the Lord that could affect someone else. That someone was his daughter. This sermon looks at the story as it lifts Jephthah’s daughter up as a woman of grace and faith.

    How many of us have ever done something that was really dumb. How many of us have promised something that we can’t fulfill Or we have put our foot in our mouth. This morning we are going to continue our series on women in the Bible by looking at a woman who has no name We know her as ...read more

    Rise From The Pit Series

    Contributed by Dennise Ogalesco on Apr 22, 2015
     | 8,174 views

    Each one of us had experience down times, troubles and trials. Rising up must be our immediate action. God's help will always be available to those who call on Him. He will lift us up, if we never lose heart.

    RISE UP FROM THE PIT 2 Kings 6:5-7 Testimonies are powerful message of God's working in our life. Apostle Paul was asked by King Agrippa to defend himself... He was asked to testify. Axe symbolizes barrenness. When the axe were not sharpened, it has no use. It has no value at all. And it is good ...read more

    Go The First Ten Feet

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017
     | 4,694 views

    Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

    "When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more

    “It’s All About Jesus”! It’s not about me. This New Year’s resolution is about lifting up the name of Jesus, making him visible, making him prominent in our lives.

    It’s a new year once again! Hope you had a wonderful new year’s celebration last night. But I hope you’ll stay awake for the rest of this message. Some of you may not have gone to bed till 3 in the morning. Do you have a New Years’ resolution? Some of the New ...read more

     | 5,266 views

    Emergency planning means getting ready for when things go wrong. This sermon considers how well we are prepared for things to go wrong in our Christian lives and how God can lift us back up when we fall.

    Many years ago when I was rather younger and fitter than I am now I was a member of a local Rescue Team. Our remit was partly Mountain Rescue but since the mountains in our area were rather made up of hills and moors this was not the dramatic role you might expect.

    When situation gets beyond control, when the enemy comes like a flood against you, your health, your children and your finances, all you have to do is ‘lift up your hands from where your help comes.’

    God has got your back Daniel 3:22”For this reason, because the king's command was urgent and the furnace had been made extremely hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who carried up Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego.” A prophetic word is coming towards you this morning that no weapon ...read more

    The Resurrection Story Series

     | 2,577 views

    When Jesus was crucified, the message was relayed all across the land that the Messiah was dead. But later, on the third day, the fog would lift. What looked like a crushing defeat was nothing more than the set-up for an incredible victory of sin, death, and hell.

    The year was 1815. There were no satellites or telephones or even telegrams yet. There were no radios to communicate news. Nobody could send a text message or post a message on Facebook or YouTube. Still, the ENTIRE country of England knew that General Wellington was facing Napoleon in a ...read more

    Ever lose heart? Ever lose hope? We must minimize fear and maximize joy, hope, peace and love. We are in a heated spiritual battle. Have the footmen wearied us? The horses are coming. BE READY...Lift up the arms that hang down.

    The Priority Of Prayer Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jul 18, 2022
     | 5,169 views

    Paul began chapter 2 with a command to all people to make prayer a priority and to do so by praying for everyone with all kinds of prayer. Then in verse 8, he gave a specific command to the men to lead the congregation by lifting up holy hands in prayer.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin today with a wonderful story that the late Peter Marshall, who was the chaplain of the U.S. Senate, used to love to tell, called: “The Keeper of the Spring.” 1.

    Commonly you may think of Praise and Worship, but real quick: Praise is lifting our voices, Worship is a lifestyle! Worship is presenting your body as a living and holy sacrifice: its living your life in accordance to the Word of God, so that it is pleasing to God.

    The Altar of Worship Intro: So we have been talking about what it means to Come to the Altar. We have learned that the altar, as found in the OT is no more. The Word means: a place to approach, acknowledge, and respect God. Since we have the HS inside of us, we can approach God anywhere. Last ...read more
