     | 8,681 views

    This sermon from The Exchanged Life perspective attempts to assist the believer in coming to a point of trust in Christ as Savior, Lord and Life through suffering thus ultimately being set free from Self.

    All of us encounter trouble from time to time in our lives. Sometimes the trials and tribulations come as a test. Sometimes they come for the glory of God. And sometimes they come as a way of bringing us to the end of our Self, of depending on our abilities and of depending on our own resources ...read more

     | 5,631 views

    Know your own self, do what is right whether you like it or not, and go beyond the norm. It will drive your mother crazy and will call from your Father, "Well done".

    Our relationship with our mothers is at once the most wonderful and yet the most difficult of all our relationships. We love them deeply, and we get so upset with them we almost hate them. Few of us are neutral about our mothers; we hold them close and then push them away forcefully. We get ...read more

    Deadly risk taking is more common then we realize. We may not purposely stare down the barrel of a shotgun. But many Christians behave in a self-defeating way that is equally careless and risky, and deadly.

    Are You Deceiving Yourself? / Part-1 Galatians 6:7 KJV A Example of deadly risk taking In 1982, “ABC Evening News” reported on an unusual work of modern art—a chair affixed to a shotgun. It was to be viewed by sitting in the chair and looking directly into the gun barrel. The gun was loaded and ...read more

    This sermon is from an Exchanged-life perspective and sets out to communicate God’s view of you that makes you worthy with a hope that the hearer will come to a more healthy sense of self-acceptance and love.

    For the past couple of weeks I’ve sought to communicate God’s view of you with a hope that you’d come to a more healthy sense of self-love and self-acceptance. I shared two messages entitled: “Learning To Love Yourself” and “Breaking Free Of Inferiority.” Today I want to climax this emphasis by ...read more

    First-person monologue, as Elijah: the voice of God is not in the winds of popularity, nor the earthquake of instability, nor the fires of self-destruction. It is in the One in whom God has spoken and who will never leave us.

    I’m so lonely. So desperately lonely. It’s been so long since l’ve seen a friendly face. So lonely. So completely alone. I feel … deserted. No one even cares whether I am alive or dead. After all I’ve done for them, would you not think that somewhere in Israel there would be a good word for ...read more

    The work began well at first, then stalled, as the people of God became self-absorbed and so concerned about re-building their own homes and lives neglecting the work of God had given then to do.

    Text Verse: Haggai 1:4-5 (Haggai 1:4-5) "Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this house lie waste? {5} Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways."

    Luke packs into these thirteen verses: The Lord's prayer, a parable on prayer, and then reminder that the disciple can be “shameless in prayer, trusting in a God of love and mercy. “ Self discipline. Fancy words not needed.

    Jesus rode into Jerusalem on this day was unique. It was a divine sign of His triumph, in at least 3 ways: His triumph over self, His triumph over situation, and His triumph over Satan.

    Today marks the beginning of what we called the Passion Week, the week that Jesus was arrested, judged, tortured, and crucified and then rose from the dead. • It is the most significant week of the Christian calendar. • The Gospel writers - Matthew, Mark and Luke, devoted a full third of their ...read more

    When it comes to winning the lost, God wants His house filled; but when it comes to discipleship, Christ thins out the ranks and wants only those who will die to self and live for Him.

    Jerusalem Lesson: Demands of Discipleship Luke 14:25-35 It is easy to be part of the crowd and follow a popular Jesus, but that is not true discipleship.

    When we humble ourselves, we can draw near to God and be blessed by Him. When we elevate ourselves or self-interest, we are driven from Him and under his discipline.

    The Leprosy Exchange (2 Kings 5:1-27) 1. Probably every one of us thinks, “I hope I never get to a condition where other people have to take care of me because I am bedfast.” 2.

    JESUS HAS JUST FINISHED FEEDING THE 5,000 AND IS DEPARTING THE AREA. HE HAD JUST DISPLAYED HIS POWER AND AUTHORITY AND REVEALED THE GLORY OF GOD. ONE WOULD THINK IT WOULD BE SEARED IN THE MEMORY OF ALL 5,000 PEOPLE. NOT QUITE! WE ARE TOLD, BY SCRIPTURE, THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY A BIT OFFENDED THAT ...read more
