  • Praise Him In The Cave

    Contributed by Major Stewart on Dec 25, 2025
     | 299 views

    Praise Him in the Cave (Psalm 57:1–11) proclaims that when life presses you into dark places, praise becomes your refuge and weapon. This sermon encourages believers to trust God’s purpose, take refuge in His presence, and praise in advance, knowing deliverance is on the way.

    PRAISE HIM IN THE CAVE - PS 57:1-11 I want to talk to you today……Have you ever found yourself in a place where life backed you into a corner?

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 20, 2026
     | 35 views

    In the last sermon, we explored the mystery of God's hiddenness. We acknowledged that God is often silent and our hearts cry out for Him to speak. But silence, we learned, does not mean absence. God is hidden from our perception, but not withdrawn from His work.

    Today, we turn to perhaps the most difficult question of all. If God is silent and yet still working, what exactly is He doing? What is the purpose of the silence? Why does God allow us to walk through seasons where prayer seems unanswered, where Scripture feels distant, where we cannot sense His ...read more
