     | 8,393 views

    No one can stand in the way of God and not be punished. Christianity has nothing to do with the magic and superstition of the world. The power of God’s Word and the power of the Holy Spirit overcomes them all.

    Have you ever wondered what is it like to be commissioned by God to do his work in our world? In the reading we heard from Acts, we see an example of one of the earliest ordinations or commissioning services in the church. Of the five men Luke mentions, four were Jews born outside the Holy Land ...read more

    We can't have power to our appliances unless we are plugged into an outlet. We need to be plugged into the Holy Spirit for power from on high.

The number one item is usually, “Ensure that the item is plugged into an electric outlet.” Here again, this must ...read more

    Just like the woman in the synagogue, too often we accept whatever is crippling us when Jesus desires to heal and deliver us.

    BOWING TO A CRIPPLING SPIRIT Luke 13:10-17 It’s hard for us to think about this passage of Scripture without thinking about all that this woman must have gone through. • For 18 years this woman had been crippled: Bent over and unable to straighten herself up. • We can only imagine the ...read more

    A hitherto hidden wisdom revealed in the Apostolic preaching of the Cross.

    THE HOLY SPIRIT AND THE CROSS. 1 Corinthians 2:1-16. Paul is at pains to stress the very different manner in which he teaches when compared with the peddlers of the wisdom of this age. This does not mean that he lacks wisdom, nor that he is any less capable than the rhetoricians: but that he ...read more

     | 8,247 views

    Is it really hard to let ourselves soak in the presence of the Lord? Or are we just blinded by unnecessary things we put first in our lives? And what does being filled with Holy Ghost means?

    In accordance with what the Bible said, we Christians are called not to be drunk with the sinful wine but to be filled with the Holy Ghost. We are very fond of idolizing and praising actors and politicians. We’re giving them our full support because they give us worldly entertainment, but when it ...read more
