    Distinguished By Gratitude: Be Exceptional Series

    Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Aug 19, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,426 views

    The enemy of exceptionality is ordinary. But often times, the pressure to fit in only leaves us with ordinary. Ordinary people never go beyond the common denominator. This is the story of how thanksgiving distinguished a leper, making him exceptional.

    This is the story of how thanksgiving and gratitude can make you exceptional in the midst of ordinary. It is the story of the ten lepers who Jesus healed on His long and arduous journey to Jerusalem. It is critical to note the writer of this scriptural narrative, the timing of the event and it's ...read more

    The whole story of the Bible is about God longing to have a personal friendship with human beings. We develop our friendship with God by spending time abiding in Jesus in prayer, abiding in the Word, and abiding in His love.

    iPRAY #3: WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS OPENING TEXT: “8 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. 9 And since we have been made right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God's judgment. 10 For since ...read more

     | 8,253 views

    This parable about the "kingdom of heaven" was directed to His enemies, to warn them about their impending doom. The King in the Lord's story represents God the Father, who gave a large banquet for His Son, Jesus Christ.

    This sermon is inspired by the movie beginning on March 20, 2015 by the same title. It uses Thomas and the story of his "doubting" in his faith-believing following Jesus' resurrection. It leaves us with the question, "Do you believe?"

    In 2012, the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life conducted a survey including White, Black and Hispanic Catholic, Protestant and Non-Denominational Christians. In this survey was the following statement, “I never doubt the existence of God.” Survey results are as follows: 80% ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 21,094 views

    So often we judge Peter harshly for his denials of Christ, but how often do WE find ourselves walking in his shoes! We need to remember that this story does have a great ending!

    Luke 22:54-62 [ESV] 54Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest’s house, and Peter was following at a distance. 55And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them. 56Then a servant girl, seeing him ...read more

    Abraham and Lot. Two believers. One trusted God, and the other trusted in his own achievement, power and wisdom. The question for us as we examine their lives and story is simply this. Who do you trust?

    As we come to Genesis 13, we find a chapter that gives us a powerful contrast between two very different people, Abram and Lot. While we are tempted to think that Lot was not a true believer, 2 Peter 2:7–8 tells us that he was indeed a believer, "And if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly ...read more

    I am convinced that murmuring is fueled by Satan. Murmuring reveals chronic dissatisfaction and anger with God.
