    I sense timidity, exhaustion. Why do you look so tired? Why do you look so stretched? You appear as one who lacks hope.

    I sense timidity, exhaustion. Why do you look so tired? Why do you look so stretched? You appear as one who lacks hope. Have you no hope? Have you lost it somewhere? Has hope run off and hid itself? Is it running from you, just out of reach? Many walk in a trance, rigid, furled brows, ...read more

    Taking God At His Word

     | 2,118 views

    There is only one thing we can believe without hesitation - God's Word. This message is about how the testimony of my brother at his burial reminded everyone of this truth.

    In John 17:16, Jesus says of His disciples "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.” It reminded me of a song we sang years ago in church. ¶ This world is not my home. I'm just passing through. My treasures are laid up, somewhere beyond the blue. The angels beckon ...read more

    Rev. F. Andrew Dixon If married couples can learn to handle their finances on certain principles based on God’s word, they can avoid conflict because of finances and also stay out of debt. Learn how your finances can be blessed so you can be a blessing to others.

    We read in Matthew 22:2, “The kingdom of heaven is like to a certain king, who made a marriage for his son..”(Webster) We considered this verse in one of the previous messages, to understand that the kingdom of heaven is likened to a certain king who organized marriage for his son, which implies ...read more

    The Lord invited us to come and be part of His Kingdom, but the Lord also commissioned us to go into all the world and preach the good news. Read on to know what happens when we go out in obedience to God.

    We read in Judges 6:13-14, “Sir," Gideon replied, "if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all the miracles our ancestors told us about? Didn't they say, 'The LORD brought us up out of Egypt'? But now the LORD has abandoned us and handed us over ...read more

    People walked away from God with stiffened necks. The idolatrous nation was so wicked they would not repent. In the message we see God had tried so much to reach the nation of Judah but they were stubborn and rebellious and rejected and killed the prophets. Disobedience considered.

    One blind beggar refused to stay silent. His desperate cry stopped Jesus on a crowded road. Your persistence matters. Your voice reaches heaven. Shout louder when the world tells you to be quiet.

    7. THE CRY THAT STOPPED JESUS (BLIND BARTIMAEUS AND THE POWER OF DESPERATE FAITH) Introduction The dusty road from Jericho witnessed thousands of travellers. Beggars lined the streets daily.

    Moses missed out on entering the Promised Land of Canaan because of his actions at the Waters of Meribah. What will we miss out on if we disobey God, even once?

    Jesus called the Twelve so that (1) they might be with Him, (2) they are to be send out to preach, and (3) to have authority to drive out demons. We are to do the same today.

    You and I can make a significant contribution to this world today • If not, Jesus would not have called us to be His disciples or given us the great commission 12 men took on the challenge - to follow Christ and serve Him - and they transformed the world • It is not about you, but what God can do ...read more

    based on 70 ratings
     | 17,625 views

    This sermon involves Bartimaeus’ willingness to shout out because of a need in his life. We must be willing to shout or cry out to the Lord as well to get Jesus’ attention.

    Are We Willing To Shout? NLF 7/29/2001 Joshua 6:8-20 Luke 17:11-19 Text Luke 18:35-43 Shouting is a natural thing we do to either get someone’s attention or to express our approval and excitement.
