    My Desire

    Contributed by Jimmy Haile on May 3, 2015
     | 8,045 views

    What are you seeking after? What is the desire of your heart?

    John 1:35-39 (NKJV) 35 Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples. 36 And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" 37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. 38 Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, "What do ...read more

    In love, if we start by asking God what he wants, chances are we will find a love like the one in Song of Solomon, and it will become its own song.

    The Song of Solomon, or Song of Songs, is one of the most interesting, unique books in the Bible. Nothing else is like it. Psalms has poetry, but not like this. Ruth and Esther have love stories, but not like this one. Paul talked about marriage, but not as Song of Solomon does. This book of the ...read more

    Coveting—our envy of another’s possessions and blessings has the potential to destroy our relationship with God and with others. A life of thankfulness and gratitude is commanded instead of coveting.

    Exodus 20:17 “Inner Desires” INTRODUCTION One of the most popular arguments to persuade parents is, “But mom, dad, everyone’s doing it.” How did this work for you when you were young? This is the excuse that we use when confronted by the ninth and tenth ...read more

    Desire To Prophesy

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 3, 2024
     | 174 views

    Too many people misunderstand the act of prophesying defined in 1 Corinthians 14. Too many have been taught it is a mysterious miraculous revelation given to those whose miraculous powers were passed by the ‘Laying on of Hands’. Is this true?

    Today too many people misunderstand the act of prophesying as taught by Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 14. Too many have been taught it is a mysterious miraculous revelation given to those whose miraculous powers were passed by the ‘Laying on of Hands’. This is the first mistake concerning the usage ...read more

    Bowing To The Great Idol Of Self

    Contributed by Mark Adams on Jan 13, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,627 views

    The OT has a lot of interesting stories about idolatry, but is that really just a problem of the past? This sermon addresses the very real problem that our culture has in worshiping our own desires above all else.

    To the reader: What inspired this sermon was a quote I read in R.C. Ortlund’s book, When God Comes To Church, p. 194. "Self is the great idol standing at the center of our conceptual world, to which all bow low. We even have a duty-to-self ethic, as if self-denial were harmful, immoral, and ...read more

    Self- Control

    Contributed by Norman Bernad on Jul 20, 2023
     | 1,636 views

    When the Spirit has control of our thoughts and actions, then we'll be able to think before we act and have the willingness and strength to follow God's will for our lives. Self-control requires that we think before we act.

    Self- Control (Fruits of the Holy Spirit) Gal 5: 22 1. Psalm: 11 2. Judges 16:4-18 3. Genesis 39:11-18 Today we come to the ninth and final fruit of the Spirit – the fruit of self-control. Self-control means having power over your body’s desires and passions. It is impossible to succeed in ...read more

    The importance of humbling ourselves, submitting our egos and pride to God, and embracing the freedom that comes from seeing ourselves in the proper biblical light.

    Hey there, Church! Today we're going to jump right into a deep topic that impacts every single one of us - our view of ourselves. Now, let's not kid ourselves, it's a tough one. We're all guilty of letting our egos run the show from time to time, aren't we? But you see, Scripture has a whole lot to ...read more

    There are really two halves to today’s message. First, I want to speak on the importance and need for growth in a believer’s life, and second is the importance of self-control.

    Do you have everything under control? I mean everything within you – do you all of you in control? Let me just get real serious, real quick here: what is the one item in your life you have trouble controlling? Do you have total self-control in the area of food? Drink? Sex? Your tongue?
