    A Sacrifice Should Cost

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,689 views

    Sometimes we feel that life is spinning out of control. In order to receive a spiritual breakthrough we might have to make a sacrifice, and a sacrifice must cost us something; for we can’t cheat the Lord and expect Him to bless us for it.

    Our message this evening is entitled, “A Sacrifice Should Cost.” A “sacrifice” is defined as “an offering made to God . . . as an acknowledgement of His power and provision.” It’s also defined as “surrender or loss made or incurred for gaining some object, or for obliging another.”(1) Based on ...read more

    Hebrews tells us that bitterness defiles. But what does that mean and why should I avoid this emotion?

    Our Sermon Series this month is entitled: "Insomniacs: Things That Keep Us Up At Night." I read that some of the Polynesian natives spend a great deal of time fighting. When people offend them, they steal something that belonged to offender and hang it from the ceiling of their hut. Then ...read more

    Conquering Our Mountains

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 17, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,697 views

    In a spiritual sense, a mountain can represent any obstacle that stands in the way of victory. This message looks at how to overcome the obstacles and trials that are trying to pull us down into the valley of hardship and defeat below.

    In the Christian walk we often refer to “entering the valley” and “having mountaintop experiences.” The valleys are the low points in our life, and those times in which we experience hardship and trials. King David said in Psalm 23:4, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, ...read more

    God Inhabits Our Praises

    Do you feel as though you are not experiencing the Lord, or you feel as though you are having a dry spell in your life? Begin directing all of your heart unto the Lord, and sing praises unto His name, and He will show up in your life.

    This evening I want to talk about the importance of praising God. Just how important is it that the Lord receives praise from His people? Allow me to open with a Biblical example. In Luke 19:37-38, the Scripture tells us: “Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the ...read more

    Seven Times Down

    Naaman was commanded to dip in the Jordan River seven times. He finally did and was healed of his leprosy. But beforehand, he put up quite a fight. His preconceptions about how God works, and his pride, both got in the way.

    Many years ago, I attended Shoutfest, which is a Christian music festival held in Somerset, Kentucky; and I heard a new band perform called “Seven Times Down,” which I thought was really good. The band got its name from the passage of Scripture that we’re going to look at this morning. I liked ...read more

    "See A Sign Of Your Savior’s Glory!”

     | 3,409 views

    Today through the Word of God before us we too will be led to see our Savior’s glory through the miracle he performed. May the Holy Spirit take us back to a wedding in Cana and to the miraculous sign that Jesus gave as a witness to his glory!

    A man and his dog were walking along a beach. After walking a good distance, they met another man walking toward them. The owner of the dog was proud of his dog’s abilities. So when the other man showed interest in his dog he had his pet show off for the stranger. He had him sit, speak, and ...read more

    Do You Desire Healing?

    Jesus confronted a man who had been ill for thirty-eighty years, and asked him if he desired to be healed. Jesus revealed that some people are not healed because they don’t want to be healed, or they lack the faith to be healed.

    A Kansas man by the last name of Florence told a story about his daughter who was suffering from an illness.

    Funeral Service #1

     | 5,535 views

    This Funeral Message is suitable for a man/woman who got saved late in life. Perhaps a man or woman who was saved by the grace of God, but didn’t have a lot of time to grow in the grace of God and mature.

    Many of us can remember a time in our life, when on a dark night, we stood outside and looked up into the sky, and saw literally millions of stars. They were beautiful; they looked like diamonds on black velvet. But today, many of us live in the city, and because of the many bright lights we are ...read more

    When a man is lost in the desert, he may experience a mirage. That is, he may look out over the sands, and in the distance see what appears to be a lake, shimmering in the sun.

    His goal is to get to the lake and obtain water to satisfy his thirst. As he travels toward the “lake”, the lake seems to maintain it’s distance, or at some point just disappears. IT WAS A MIRAGE! Such an experience only brings disappointment and tragedy to the individual who believes the mirage is ...read more

    Sermon: How To Support Leadership

     | 5,270 views

    Since success comes from partnership, collaboration, and cooperation, why should support be a one-way street? Maybe it’s time to start thinking about how you can support your pastors, your apostles, or your leaders to maximize their success.

    Sermon: How To Support Leadership Text: 1Ch 12:32, 38 And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment. 38 “All these men of war, that could keep ...read more

    Building The Lord’s House

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,576 views

    If the church is going to promote abundant life and begin attracting people, it must become more than just a physical structure. It must be seen as a house, or rather, a home. It must become a place where people feel safe and secure.

    There was once a story in the Oregonian, Portland’s morning newspaper, of a man who had helped construct a Roman Catholic Church in Mexico. He used inferior materials in order to make more money. At the dedication of the building, the roof collapsed, killing many of the worshipers including the ...read more

    Preach The Word -- Which One? 2 Of 2

     | 1,991 views

    Again, let me say, without apology, that I believe this King James Bible that I hold in my hands is the inspired, inerrant Word of God for English-speaking people.

    I do not believe translators are “inspired.” I do believe the “holy men” that God used, who wrote the original text, were inspired to write those precious truths God breathed through them. • It is hard for me to conceive that God would command a man to PREACH THE WORD, when there was no Word He ...read more

     | 4,454 views

    Have you ever questioned your salvation? As long as we keep our trust totally in Christ, we stand assured of God’s promise of eternal life. But as soon as we rest any weight on the thin ice of our own efforts, we topple into insecurity.

    Have you ever wondered about your salvation; about whether or not you are going to heaven when you die? Some questions we might have are, “What am I supposed to do in order to gain God’s acceptance and love?” “Do I have to read the Bible all the way through?” “Do I have to knock on a million ...read more
