     | 25,072 views

    Like the deer pants after water, the people of God are often hounded by adversity and the enemy of our souls. Often we find ourselves running the wrong way, becoming thirsty and dry spiritually. It's time we started running to Jesus, our only true sourc

    On the Run and Searching for Water By Rev. James May I know that I’ve told this before, but I want to begin this message again by bringing to your mind the story of the lion and the gazelle that dwell on the Serengeti plains of northern Africa.

    based on 8 ratings
     | 12,050 views

    No matter the vagaries of life, no matter the turn of events, we have an anchor which holds our soul in life and ensures our stability."The Lord is our Refuge and Strength". Ps. 46:1

    For believers, faith is the way of life. “The just shall live by faith” Rom. 1: 7. However whatever has to do with life has to be tested. Man designed and built a flying machine, but he would not entrust it with human life until each component has been tested. No drug is administered to any ...read more

    Committed To Serve Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 1, 2019
     | 8,625 views

    Knowing the disciples would face a difficult and discouraging task at times, Jesus sought to encourage them by reminding them of their standing with God. We too can draw strength from the Lord and need reminded of that which is available to the believer.

    Committed to Serve Matthew 10: 29-33 Jesus had shared much with the disciples prior to sending them out in pairs of two for ministry. He had been very straightforward with them, revealing the difficulties and opposition they would encounter as the proclaimed the Good News. Some would happily ...read more

     | 43,717 views

    God doesn’t cause trouble and adversity, but He uses trouble to refine some humility in us. While trouble causes some people to raise their faces to heaven and become bitter, others bow their knees before God and become better.

    Have a Slice of Humble Pie Luke 14:1-11 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Maybe you’ve seen Jeff Foxworthy’s “Redneck” list. He says, “You know you’re a Redneck if…”: 1. Directions to your house include, “Turn off the paved road.” 2. You take your fishing pole to Sea World. 3. You have flowers ...read more

    The Fear Of Failure

    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,687 views

    Being negative is easy; it requires no work because it comes natural. All you have to do to fail is nothing. On the other hand being positive isn’t as easy; it requires work. Optimism in the face of adversity is difficult and is hard to find in this day a

    The Fear of Failure Diamonds in the rough often go unrealized because they don’t think they are diamonds, they don’t have an advocate to encourage them, so the fear of failure ruins the confidence that leads to success. The greatest days and moods are quickly forgotten with one ...read more

    Dont You Care That We Are Perishing?

    Contributed by Boniface Simiyu on Feb 1, 2022
     | 2,721 views

    In the face of adversity we as Jesus's disciples should be wary of thinking that He doesnt care. We have the key and its Faith. Without it we end up scared and accusing God of what he's not.

    Have you ever realized that Jesus would get frustrated at the fact that we didnt have faith in Him or what He could do? It seems to be the biggest problem because when the disciples woke him up and even asked him a very bad question in a very bad way. They asked like this.... Dont you care that we ...read more

     | 3,171 views

    Peter knew the church faced much persecution in the first century. As they continued to endure adversity, he pointed them to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith. Persecution might continue, but they had been raised from death unto life in Christ.

    Raised from Death unto Life 1 Peter 4: 1-6 Peter set the tone for the message he sought to convey as he introduced himself to the reader. He addressed them as strangers scattered throughout the Roman provinces. This served two basic principles – 1) Peter revealed to the believers that he was aware ...read more

    How are we to live our daily lives? What is the impact of a relationship with Christ in the life of a believer? How does the Lord provide wisdom and guidance for the daily struggles believers’ face? How do believers overcome the adversities of life and attacks of the enemy?

    The Believer’s Walk Ephesians 4: 1-6 As we come to the fourth chapter of Ephesians, it is evident that Paul has shifted his focus and is now ready to offer beneficial application for the reader.

    Paul calls us to stand in the Lord’s strength; but we’re not just observers either (#14 in The Christian Victor series)

    “Finally be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.” Paul’s letter to the Ephesians is clearly divided into three main subjects. The divisions are so distinct, that most commentators ...read more

    The tongue has been given the title strongest muscle in the Body! Why then don’t we have the "strength" to control it?
