    Body Language

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 7, 2010
     | 5,292 views

    Our actions speak clearly about who we are and what we need; we need to lie down in worship and study, we need to walk in the valley of human need, and we need to engage those who are different from us.

    Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC October 18, 1992 I want you to look up here and then feed back to me what I am saying. I’m asking you to watch me and then tell me what I am saying to you. (Clumped shoulders): “I certainly am glad to be here.” What did I say? My ...read more

    God is always with us. He is often seen through the people around us by their words and actions. There is a great expectation from us that comes through repentance. As God makes a total commitment to us, we must make a total commitment to Him.

    Twenty-four Seven Three Sixty Five “Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. I will help you. I will uphold you with my victorious right hand." Isaiah 41:10 Intro: God chooses us not because we deserve it but because God loves us and ...read more

    Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 15 – Swifter Than Eagles The Land Will Be Scorched By Babylon Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 12, 2024
     | 792 views

    Judah rejected the true message because they want to believe the lie. All actions have a consequence and the time for accountability had arrived. The human heart embraces sin so firmly it will not release it and hastens on to its own destruction. Babylon was the scorching wind.

     | 19,290 views

    What does it mean to believe? To believe is more than just acknowledging – it is faith in action. All true belief requires activity. Belief requires that we put our money where our mouth is. It requires hope in another person.

    Jesus turns our cultural ideas of "the good life" upside down by affirming a radical shift in our thinking and actions away from our own agenda and living for Him will bring us true happiness and contentment.

    The Flesh Is Willing

     | 3,885 views

    Wait… the title of this story is “The Flesh is Willing”, yet this scripture claims it is weak… and it was Jesus who actually said it… so, that must be right! See… the flesh is very willing to do things, to get involved, to perform or get into action… to a fault.

    Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

    Praying With Jesus: Hallowed Be Your Name Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Apr 15, 2019
     | 5,322 views

    God's name stands for him. When we pray for his name to be hallowed, 1) We are saying that he is the foundation of our lives, and 2) We are committing ourselves to show his holiness by our worship and actions in the world.

    PRAYING LIKE JESUS: Hallowed Be Your Name In Luke 11:1-2, we read, “One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray’ … He said to them, ‘When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name.”’ Jesus wants us to pray that ...read more

    Heal The Wound, Leave The Scar

    Contributed by Shawn Andrews on Mar 14, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,243 views

    Big Idea: Forgiveness is healing the wound, even if it leaves a scar. Forgiving others means choosing not to be imprisoned by the actions of our offender. Jesus will heal our wound, but the scar remains to remind us of God’s work of grace in our lives.

    INTRO: STORY: Last year, you all know I had shoulder surgery. I didn’t want to have surgery. I avoided it as long as possible. But eventually, my shoulder hurt all the time. It became debilitating. It was only when I became aware of what my wound was keeping me from, was I willing to do ...read more

     | 14,395 views

    The main feature of a Remembrance Psalms is that to call to mind the actions of God in the past, especially the way God acted to save His people. We do that because we understand that all history is God’s history - every thing has a reason.

    "the Scientific Brilliance Of Genesis 1:1"

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 2, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,645 views

    When we stop to meditate on the first verse of Holy Scripture, we see not only the majesty and power of Almighty God in action, but if we look deeper, we also see the beginnings of scientific thought and the real explanation for the origin of life and the universe.

    "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." (Genesis 1:1, KJV). Consider for a moment how solemn, powerful and wondrous these opening words of Holy Scripture are. They present the work, thought, and exactness of Almighty God. You are probably saying to yourself, ...read more

    So, what does this passage in 2 Kings 4 have to do with us? I told you at the beginning that this was an odd passage in the life of the prophet Elisha and it has an important message for us today. That message is all about the action word “faith.”

    A legacy is something that is passed on, such as faith, ethics, core values, assets, character, reputation, or life. A legacy can be the sum of a person's accomplishments, actions, and values that resonate with others. John teaches we must leave a legacy of truth.

    Saul’s actions after having been called, stricken blind, and healed are a model for each of us to follow when it comes to being obedient to Jesus. Would we be so bold today as to willingly allow our lives to be changed by Him?
