    Fear Frustration Faith

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Aug 28, 2019
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,614 views

    Fear. Frustration. Faith. We all have them and each is related. While faith can be the solution to fear and frustration, it can also be the source of fear and frustration. How can faith be both the solution and the source? That’s what the account of Abraham leads us to consider.

    What are you afraid of? What is it that frustrates you? Maybe your fears come from the “what ifs” in life, what if this happens or that happens. Maybe they are the fears of what other people think of you or the fear of failure. Maybe it’s the fear of things from the past, things that you can’t ...read more

    ‘Choice’ is something that begins with God. God chose to keep the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the center of garden, so there was no chance of Adam & Eve missing it. And God passed on this gift of choice to mankind. The choices that we make in our everyday life determine our future.

    The choices that we make are very important. It determines our victory and our future. One wrong choice can ruin your life. And a right choice can bless you abundantly. What’s the first choice mentioned in the Bible? [allow audience to guess] Eve choosing to eat the forbidden fruit! No. CHOICE ...read more

    Today, let’s look into Exodus 16:32-36, where God provided manna to sustain the Israelites during their wilderness journey. This passage not only teaches us about God's provision in physical needs but also holds spiritual significance for us today.

    1. Divine Provision: Exodus 16:32-36 reveals God's supernatural provision of manna as physical sustenance. As believers, we can trust that God will meet our needs in every area of life. Matthew 6:25-34 emphasizes seeking God's kingdom first and relying on His provision. 2. Daily ...read more

    There is a certain excitement that comes with New Things. To some degree in our mind and hearts, we wipe from our mind and heart all the failures of the past year, all the heartaches and disappointments of the past year.

This being the first Sunday of the new year, I want to use the subject of the New Year for our message today. There is a certain excitement that comes with New Things.

    David The Warrior Series

     | 1,012 views

    David's experience as a warrior is unparalleled. There is a huge amount we can learn from him when it comes to fighting battles. The biggest lesson of all is that the decisive factor in a battle is God being with us.

    INTRODUCTION Today we’re returning to our series on ‘Learning from David’ and looking at the subject of ‘David the warrior.’ I thought we’d look at this subject this way. We’ll start by thinking about David and consider three questions. Did David fight? Why did he fight? And how did he fight? ...read more

    Sometimes we can become prideful and overconfident in our own abilities, which is sin; and so, God will hide His face from us (Isaiah 59:2). The Lord will hide from us in order to gain our attention and cause us to cling to Him.

    One day a mother was out shopping with her son. Every time she took him shopping with her she couldn’t keep him by her side. As soon as she would turn her back, the boy would wander off somewhere, though keeping his mother in sight the entire time. She would then have to go and retrieve him. ...read more

    We want to be a disciplined people, and we want to be wary of the destructive evils that we find so easy to embrace. Discipline is like a ladder that slowly leads us upward; foolishness is a chute that can make us drop quickly.
