Wait For The Vision

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 21, 2022

This message looks at the topic of delayed visions, and attempts to understand why it might be taking so long for a vision to manifest or be fulfilled. When God shares a vision, we need to have patience and endurance, and walk by faith.

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with aviation. Well, one evening, when I was about ten-years-old, I was outside walking on the family farm; and off in the distance, I saw a hot air balloon about a mile away. I had high hopes that it would move towards the farm and land, but that was wishful ...read more

Christ Our Soon Coming King

Contributed by William Akehurst on Mar 17, 2008

The Old Testament has so many prophesies of JESUS’ arrival. All were fulfilled with Christ our Messiah. BUT there is yet one prophesy that has to be fulfilled...JESUS IS COMING BACK! Are you READY? for Palm Sunday

Ten Commandments For Raising Children

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Aug 1, 2016

These Israelite parents were to teach their children obedience morning and night, so these words would not become a matter of formal legalism, but a response based upon understanding. Remember, obedience is formed when its a way of life.

Ten Commandments for Raising Children Deuteronomy 6:6-7NKJB What My Parents Taught Me: My parents taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE: "If you’re going to kill each other, do it outside - I just finished cleaning!"

Worship God Selflessly Series

Contributed by Michael Luke on Dec 12, 2015

I Prophecy Life

Contributed by Apostle Bobby Hogan on Sep 21, 2018

God sets the prophet Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones (which represented the house of Israel) for one purpose - to prophesy life. There was so much power and authority in his voice that everything dead in the valley came back to life.

I PROPHESY LIFE “The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.

The Hidden Gospel

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jan 19, 2009

However, regardless of how bright the light of the Gospel is there are those who are blind to the truth. To them the gospel is hidden. How does such brilliant light become so veiled or hidden that men see not the Light?

THE HIDDEN GOSPEL 2 CORINTHIANS 4:1-7 Introduction: Paul writing to the Corinthian church speaks of the great and awesome privilege of having been given the ministry of carrying the Gospel to the lost. This ministry of bringing light to darkness was and is a work of God’s Power through His Spirit. ...read more

Relationships In The Hereafter

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Nov 5, 2019

What will life be like in heaven? We'll have bodies that are physical, permanent, recognizable, and spiritual. We will have relationships so vital with Christ and each other that marriage will no longer be needed.

Luke 20:27-38 Relationships in the Hereafter Sometimes we are forced to say good-bye to those we love. And in those most trying of times, we hold onto the biblical idea of a great reunion of all believers in a place called heaven. But in today’s scripture Jesus tells us there won’t be marriage as ...read more

New Birth - A Passport To Heaven!

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on May 13, 2024

Never compromise for cheap Christianity that takes you close but not far enough to inherit eternal life. Many good people like Nicodemus are so caught up with religion that they lose sight of eternity.

A little girl had been attending Church for a while. One day, she asked her mother “Where did people come from?” Her mother answered “God made Adam and Eve and they had children and that is how all of us came.” A couple of days later she asked her father the same question. The father said “This is ...read more

The Sanctifying Shield Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 15, 2013

Jesus prays that the Father will protect us. But how does the God do that? How does God guard us and shield us when we live so exposed to the temptations and lusts of this world?

God Will Give You The Desires Of Your Heart

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 7, 2020

Bartimaeus was filled with the spirit of Jacob. The more resistance he met, the more strenuously he wrestled to obtain the blessing (Ge 32:24-26). He received the desire of his heart! So can you!

Church And State Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

What separation does mean is that all true religious faith is a matter of free choice, and so no state power can ever be rightly used to enforce faith or any religious conviction.

Until every knee bows and every tongue confesses that Jesus Christ is Lord, the abuse of power will be a major cause of human suffering. When the country of Chad in Africa became independent in 1960 the Christian missionaries were delighted that the first President was a Baptist. Tambolboye was ...read more

"My Will Be Done Or Thy Will Be Done”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Sep 16, 2022

We have to remind many people to pray because the devil will see to it that our lives are filled with people and things so we do not have time to even think about praying.

But some of us do not have to be reminded because there are all kinds of emergencies that come up each day that remind us to pray. Illus: A mother and her five year old son were headed to McDonald's. Before they reached the drive way to McDonald’s the mother noticed a car accident. ...read more
