    Understanding Who God Is Series

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Oct 25, 2011
     | 4,554 views

    Understanding who God is not an easy task. The 10 commandments let us know that if we do not get the first 4 commandments right, we will not get the last 6 correct and our relationship will suffer both with God and each other.

    Understanding who God is Exodus chapter 20:1-17 Introduction- This morning we begin a new series called connecting with God and others. The purpose of the series is for us to see that a right relationship with God is needed before we can have a right relationship with each other. If you noticed ...read more

    Revival is awakening, float-ation, renewed vision, passion, emancipation, & Holy Spirit prompting. Most Christians are suffering the 7 symptoms of dehydration -- deficient in the Holy Spirit. Our culture deprives us of spiritual oxygen. We must breathe!

    I cannot fathom the great love of God that was made known to us in His Son; that Jesus would give up His glory to come into the world as a lowly baby. And then, why would He suffer and die for any man?

    Proclaimed By Angels I cannot fathom the great love of God that was made known to us in His Son; that Jesus would give up His glory to come into the world as a lowly baby. And then, why would He suffer and die for any man? In 1 Timothy 3:16, it ...read more

    Worry affects our thinking, feeling, and choosing. Worry wastes time and energy. Relationships with our spouses, families, coworkers, friends, and the Lord suffer. Health problems arise from worry. It shows a lack of trust in God. There is a better way!

    Winning over Worry Text: Philippians 4:4-9 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 ...read more

    Humans have a hard time following rules. It is in our nature to rebel because we are self-centered and curious. But, sadly enough for us there are consequences. Either we can follow God's commands, or we'll suffer the consequences.

    Introduction: God was preparing to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. Because of God’s love and covenant with Abraham, God shared with Abraham what was going to happen. Abraham asked God to spare the city if 50 righteous could be found, but there were not 50 righteous. Abraham tried 45, then 40, ...read more

     | 5,131 views

    The aim of this Sermon is to help you better understand the events that occurred during the last twenty-four hours of Jesus’ life, see more clearly the God Spoken Importance of Christ’s suffering and death, and reflect upon the meaning of these events.

    JESUS IS BELIEVED to have died at the age of 33 after a life of approximately 12,000 days. The Gospel writers devoted most of their work to just 1,100 or so of those days, the last 3 years of his life; and their primary interest was in one particular day—the day he was crucified.

    Among all the conquering heroes of Hebrews 11, God introduces us to those who suffered, struggled and died for their faith. Why would God tell us the stories of those who didn't "succeed"?

    OPEN: I love a good action movie - the kind they used to make. Movies where good overcomes evil; the boy gets the girl; righteousness triumphs and the hero rides off into the sunset. Those are “feel good” movies because everything works out the way it should. One website talked about the movies ...read more

    Shooting Our Wounded

     | 1,936 views

    We cringe when we hear about shooting the wounded; but how many times have we seen a brother or sister in Christ who was suffering spiritually, and then we shot him or her down with our words of judgment and condemnation?

    I want to open with an illustration. On May 21, 2004, Captain Rogelio Maynulet of the United States Army shot an unnamed Iraqi who was wounded in a chase.(1) What was his reasoning? He reported, “He was in a state that I didn’t think was dignified – I had to put him out of his misery.” He ...read more

    What began as an intended temporary stay in Moab, turned into ten years of despair and suffering. Upon hearing the Lord had visited His people, Naomi made the wise decision to begin the long journey home. It would prove beneficial.

    Lamentations speaks on behalf of those suffering as he reminds the Lord of how great is the grief experienced. He confesses that the judgement is deserved. In this, he provides a warning to those living in this present culture that they must not presume against the goodness of God.

    Grief touches each of us eventually. [1] Though we know we will experience grief as individuals, we sometimes need to be reminded that grief will consume the nation that turns from righteousness while embracing wickedness. Some might suppose that Christians will gloat when judgement at last comes ...read more
