    Desire God's Glory Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 16, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,362 views

    David fervently desired to be in God’s temple all the days of his life, so he could behold the glory and the beauty of the Lord. In contrast a majority of people simply wish to receive material blessings and miracles from the Lord, with no desire whatsoever to see the glory of God.

    Desire God’s Glory We read in Psalm 91:9-10, “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.” (KJV) Psalm 91:10 is rendered this way in another version, “So nothing bad ...read more

    Did the perfect God, in whom is no darkness at all, create the earth without form and void and covered with darkness?

    THE EARTH THAT WAS, AND IS, AND IS TO COME (by brother Tarran Dookie) Gen 1:1-2 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

     | 3,370 views

    God’s Word is not only Holy itself, but it is able to make us Holy. Jesus prayed, John 17:17, which is really the Lord’s Prayer says, “Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth”.

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Fig Tree) # 16

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,312 views

    The Lord taught many parables. But to fully understand these parables as we study them, we need to examine what motivated Him to teach that particular parable.

    In order to do this, you generally have to read the verses that precede the parable He spoke. For example, following Jesus' comments about the widow giving her two small coins in the temple, He teaches about: • The destruction of the temple • The coming of the end of the age Look at Luke 21: ...read more

    Would you like to know God’s Will for your life? Of course you would! So, if you are searching for God’s Will for your life and if you want His blessings, you need to look no further than Romans chapter twelve verses one and two.

    A Study on why we should Trust the Bible

    1. The Bible is from God. >Read Gal 1:11-12< Question: If we reject a Biblical command, whom have we rejected? (See 2 Tim 3:16; 1 Cor 14:37; Eph 3:3-5; Luke 10:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21) 2. The Bible can be trusted. (Psalm 9:10; Jer 17:7) 3. The Bible arms us against destructive error. (Eph ...read more

    The Beginning Of Knowledge

    based on 1 rating
     | 698 views

    This sermon deals with the dangers that come with technology and the importance of being able to correctly discern the difference between true, critical knowledge and inconsequential, time-wasting knowledge.

    In my last sermon, against the backdrop of current world events, I shared with you from Scripture how we could know we are living in the last days of this earth’s troubled history. We looked primarily at Revelation 13 and 14 and discussed some of the signs of the times that strongly indicate where ...read more

    A Thankful Giving

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on May 28, 2025

    Today’s scripture reading is a parable about belonging and membership in the Kingdom of Heaven.

    “A Thankful Giving” “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius[a] for the day and sent them into his vineyard. 3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the ...read more

    Cities Of Refuge Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 1, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,986 views

    These cities of refuge were a fore shadow of the Lord Jesus who was to come to save us, and protect us hundreds of years later. God had ordained this beautiful plan of salvation through Jesus and the city of refuge is a trailer of God's plan.

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 35:6,“You are to give the Levites six cities of refuge to which any of you can escape if you kill someone accidentally. In addition, give them forty-two other cities” (GNB) In the above mentioned verse we understand that the Lord had commanded that six cities ...read more

    Facing The Storms Of Life May Be Easier Than You Think.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Aug 13, 2023
     | 1,257 views

    Peter and experienced fisherman was trying to endure a bad storm, yet he went from fear and terror to hope and encouragement in an instant, and we can follow likewise, by keeping our focus on him and on success.

    “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength, and our redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) Introduction: In today’s reading, we hear of Jesus walking on water, a reading we have heard many times before, but it ...read more

    Tangible Verses Intangible Series

     | 1,902 views

    What is it that God wants you to do with the one life he has given you? The life you have is a gift but will not be all it can be without your journeying into the unknown.

    Tangible verses Intangible. Abraham set free to be blessed and a blessing! Genesis 17:1-10 and 17:15-22. We carry on today with number two sermon of this four-part sermon series “Steadfast.” The verse that sort of ties the series together is Psalm 16:8 “I have set the LORD always before me: ...read more

     | 831 views

    God has given us each specific gifts and resources. He expects us to live for the advancement of the Kingdom on earth. When we fail to do this, we are outside of His will and off assignment.

    1) Introduction a) Trouble in school—bad grades—didn’t care about learning—wanted to hang out with friends. b) The problem was that I failed to understand the value of the assignments the teachers were giving. I viewed them as an interruption to my goals and how I wanted to spend my time. By ...read more

    What did Jesus mean by saying we should eat His flesh and drink His blood?

    An 11-year-old girl named Abby went to the refrigerator and grabbed a grape flavored juice box. She shoved the straw into the box, and took a sip. And then she paused for a minute. She took the juice box to her sister, and said, "Here, taste this, and tell me if it tastes like ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 913 views

    This sermon encourages believers to choose the path of righteousness, delight in God's law, and flourish like a tree planted by streams of water.

    Beloved, as we gather together today in the sanctuary of our Lord, we find ourselves standing at the crossroads of life, where the path of righteousness and the path of wickedness diverge. We stand, as it were, at the precipice of choice, where the echo of our decisions will reverberate through the ...read more
