    A Prayer For God’s Will

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

     | 4,030 views

    When it comes to praying for God’s will, we often find ourselves at a loss for words. Perhaps, the way to make the greatest impact is to ask for a blessing; to pray for the spiritual and material resources we need to enlarge the kingdom.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning “A Prayer for God’s Will.” When we think of God’s will we often have in mind how the Lord wants to use us for His glory; how God wants to include us in His plans and work through us to make an impact for the kingdom. But when it comes to praying for God’s ...read more

    Grace From Galatians (17 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 1,395 views

    In this passage of scripture, Paul is addressing Christians. Notice, he addressed them in verse 1 by referring to them as, “Brethren”.

    Paul’s concept of the church throughout the scriptures is that the Believers are the family of God. WHY IS HE ADDRESSING THEM? He is addressing them because people in the family of God are supposed to love one another as a LOVING FAMILY. Like all families, the family of God has times when ...read more

The same thing is true for a CHURCH. ...read more

    A Conversation With A Rich Young Man

     | 2,353 views

    Have you noticed that most of our conversations are with people that are in the same age bracket we are in?

    There is an obvious reason for that, we generally talk to people our own age because we feel that we have something in common with them. For example, I can listen to young people talk and they are talking about singers, athletes and entertainers I never heard of. So naturally, if they want to ...read more

    The Biggest Waste Of Time!

     | 1,858 views

    Those who are doing something positive with their life recognize that we are only allotted so many days, weeks, months and years in this life, and we can not afford to waste the precious time that is given to us.

    For example: (1) SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSES RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME In the name of increased productivity, we humans have battled against time since the beginning of time. For example, if you look at the past 200 years, the invention of the cotton gin, the assembly line, the telephone, and ...read more

    The Blood of Jesus is seldom spoken of in many churches of today. But for 2000 years the Gospel of Jesus Christ has never changed. We are saved by faith and that faith should be in His redemption work on Calvary and the Blood that He shed.

     | 3,882 views

    What does it mean to be devoted to one another in brotherly love? It requires that we decide to be devoted, then be determined to be devoted, and follow it up with the demonstration of our devotion. That demonstration includes being present, attentive, and expressive.

    If you want someone else's life rather than your own, you are accusing God of injustice, and failing to see the work he has prepared for you and equipped you for.

    During my senior year at seminary, we had something called “racial reconciliation day.” It involved, among other things, attending a rally at the college that the seminary was attached to, wearing a ribbon or a tag or label - I don’t remember exactly what - to announce to the world one’s repentance ...read more
