    Come And Drink (Hix)

    Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Nov 16, 2012
     | 7,230 views

    The reason your life might stink, is because your life has become a stagnant storage tank instead of rivers of living water!

    John 7:37-39-On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those ...read more

    Is your walk with Christ charaterized by a steady flow of life and fruitfulness, or by an occassional refilling that soon grows stagnant? Where there’s movement, there’s life.

    Running Water Leviticus 15:1-13 (KJV) The essence of Leviticus is God teaching His people how to live again. They had lived in bondage for most of the 430 years they were in Egypt and, as you can appreciate, they had lost all sense of perspective as to who they ...read more

    Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves. That is why it seems surprising that Jesus himself delivers a message on intolerance.

    Intolerance has a negative connotation. Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves.

    Psalm 32 - Acknowledging Our Sin Is To Be Our Regular Practice

    Contributed by Neil Olcott on Jul 29, 2023
     | 1,859 views

    Have you ever felt that your relationship with God has been, not just stagnant, but wooden and hollow, with no life, no relationship, no joy, no vibrancy or flourishing? Like it is forced and faked and empty?

    This morning we are looking at Psalm 32 and we find that it is written by King David. It’s a psalm paired with Psalm 51. They’re bound together. “Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your steadfast love.” And they’re bound together because the context of the psalm is 2 Samuel chapters 11 and 12. ...read more

     | 244 views

    : Is your waiting room actually a weight room? In seasons where nothing moves and prayers seem unheard, faith can feel like stagnant waiting. But faith is a verb, not a noun.

    Here's what I've noticed: most of us treat faith like an emergency button. Something you only push when there's a crisis. When the diagnosis is bad, when the job is gone, when everything is falling apart. But what happens in the seasons when nothing is falling apart and nothing is ...read more

    Why would the Israelites accept stale stagnant water rather than the living water God offered them? Did they just wake up one morning and say "I don’t want to follow God"? Consider these intriguing thoughts.

    It would be a tragedy for believers to possess biblical knowledge and spiritual giftedness, and yet never use that knowledge and giftedness for the advancement of the Kingdom. Many churches are stagnant and dead spiritually because they focus upon the wrong things.

    Encouragement to Engage in Ministry Ephesians 3: 14-19 Some of you are probably like me when it comes to technology. I am certainly not an expert in the field of computers and programming.
