     | 4,730 views

    To show that JESUS never wanted us to sleep when talking to Him.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you sleeping while praying? No. I listened and do what JESUS commanded. Matthew 26:41 Matthew 26:41 All of you must keep awake (give strict attention, be cautious and active) and watch and pray, that you may not come into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh ...read more

    Promises To Keep Before I Sleep

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 8, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,047 views

    We find it difficult to keep promises because we are focused on dealing with today’s issues. We back off our commitments to God because they are hard, but we can receive help from accountability partners, and can know joy and fulfillment.

    To be a saint is not to be perfect; to be a saint is to be someone who makes promises and keeps them. Sainthood is not some magic status, conferred by the church for merit or miracles; sainthood is ordinary people living in extraordinary faithfulness, making promises and keeping them. Did you ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,201 views

    There are many Christians who don't understand what happens to them or their body after they die.

    The questions most often asked after reading the following verses are about what happens to the physical body and spirit at the moment of death. "But someone will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?" You foolish person! What you sow does not come ...read more

    based on 41 ratings
     | 12,115 views

    As young people we make many naive promises, which are diluted by the demands of the day. But God sends people to intervene with the truth, so that at the end we are able to praise Him for the grace that helps us feel some degree of fulfillment.

    The shouts of today are so loud that I do not hear the echoes of yesterday, nor do I listen to the faint whispers of tomorrow. All I really know is what is clamoring in my ear right here, right now. That makes me lose perspective. The shouts of today are so insistently loud that I do not hear ...read more

Mat 8:24 Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.

    We make promises to God but do not keep them because we let life overwhelm us, but if we listen to those who care for us, they will bring us back to our promises.

     | 4,104 views

    There are two dangers in Christian life. First, is the danger of excessive activity, work without rest. Second, is the danger of too much withdrawal. Jesus calls to balance it.

    Mark 6:31-32 Come Rest a while He said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a little while” —for there were many [people who were continually] coming and going, and they could not even find time to eat. (AMP) Joke: A husband checked into the hotel. Then he decided to ...read more

    In the church there are a lot of Rip Van Winkle Christians--who go to sleep not long after they made the decision to follow Christ.

    Ephesians 5:8-14 INTRODUCTION: How many have heard the statement, “They are as different as day and night.”? Paul is using this same kind of contrast between darkness and light when he is speaking of the old life without Christ as compared to the new life in Christ. In this scripture Paul is ...read more

    As Christians we have been sent out into a world that needs hope... And yet some of us are still spiritually asleep

    Introduction As a firefighter one of the worst things in the world that can happen is sleeping through an alarm… I remember one time after we had a long day of hose testing everybody was pretty tired and we were hoping for a quite night, which never seems to happen… about 1:00 or 2:00 in the ...read more
