    Any power militating against a true child of God is looking for problems. Such a power wants to sink into the red sea after the order of Pharaoh. It is also seeking to be destroyed by God's anger after the order of Senacherib.

    LORD, BEHOLD THEIR THREATENING Dr. D. K. Olukoya In Acts 4, the apostles had been pushed around. They had been warned not to preach in the name of Jesus. Then in verse 29, they started praying, "And now, Lord, behold their threatening and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may ...read more

    A perspective on Matthew 14: 22-33. Like Peter, we are so often distracted by the voice and terrors of our own storm in life. At times we feel we are sinking, about to loose everything about us.

    Matthew 14: 22-33 LISTEN TO GOD AND WALK ON WATER Written exams and tests are generally run like a competition. The teacher at school or the lecturer at university or your employer sets the work before you, and you know that at the end of it there will be a small prize or a pat on the back to ...read more

     | 1,620 views

    Jude gets very descriptive of these false teachers and in verse 12 there are 7 descriptions of these perverse people who sink church fellowships; cause destruction; bring chaos into the church, and corrupt the morals, and the working and the effectiveness of the functioning church.

    FALSE TEACHERS ARE HIDDEN REEFS IN YOUR LOVE FEASTS – Jude 1:12 INTRODUCTION We have some people here who did not hear the first two messages given on Jude.

    One of the christian virtues that God wants to be developed in the lives of the saints is Patience. We need patience because there is in us a great tendency to complain and quit during tough times; Man by nature is liable to sink under sufferings. Patien

    This is part two of my series, Placebo Faaith - The Real Thing. In this message I review the story of Peter walking on the water and how his thinking caused him to step out of the boat, walk on the water but ultimately start sinking.

    Once a ship is halfway under it will sink. Best to get in the lifeboat before the ship sucks you down with it. Many churches are ninety percent under and no one wants a life boat. We are not called to go down with the ship.

    1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; If a church is built upon a man, it will not stand when the man is ...read more

    At what point did Peter start to sink into the water? The moment he took his eyes off of Jesus and started to think about what was going on around him and the way he was feeling about the situation that he was in! Right?

    Seeing is believing, "But Only Faith Moves The Hand Of God!" Eph. 5:18-20 MSG. 16-18. Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens.
