    Craig Groeschel said, “Discipline is choosing between what you want now and what you want most.” That’s a good description of our subject for today: Self-Control.

    As we continue our journey into spiritual warfare, we turn our focus to what the Bible calls “the world”—not the physical earth, but the organized system under Satan.

    Mastering Self-Control: A Path To Freedom SermonCentral

    Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 9, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,488 views

    This sermon explores the concept of self-control, a fruit of the Spirit. It provides a roadmap to gaining more self-control, starting with acknowledging our problems, leaving the past behind, mastering our emotions, believing in our capacity for change, avoiding temptation, and relying on Christ's power.

    This sermon is about self-control, which is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Self-control is important because many of our problems stem from a lack of it. We often wonder why we can't lose weight, keep our house clean, or break bad habits. The answer is that we lack self-control. Our biggest ...read more

    Who's In Charge Here?

    Daniel's vision gives us clarity regarding our present and the future.

    Take a look at this picture. It’s an illustration of the scene from our Gospel lesson this morning where Jesus was standing before the Roman governor Pilate. Now let me ask you this question. Who’s in charge here? Is it Pilate who sits on his throne with expensive clothes and the ...read more

    The Believers Life Is Selfcontrolled

    In the previous sermon we looked at Romans 8:1-4, and we learned some marvelous things about our new position in Christ Jesus.

    We learned that while we ALL were once IN ADAM, something happened when heard of salvation in Jesus: • We recognized how dreadful our sins were, and repented of them and trusted in Christ • We were immediately justified by the blood of Christ And now we are no longer IN ADAM, but we are IN CHRIST. ...read more

    Taming The Tongue Series

    The tongue is powerful; control it. The tongue is pernicious; contain it. The tongue is polluted; clean it up.

    A couple of hunters were out in the woods of New Jersey when one of them fell to the ground. He didn’t seem to be breathing, and his eyes were rolled back in his head. Terrified, his friend whipped out his cell phone and dialed 911. “My friend is dead! What can I do?” he cried over the phone. In ...read more

    Receiving The Lord’s Chastening

    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,265 views

    God chastens us for our own good. However, usually, when we are going through His chastening we resist the Lord with all of our might. But this passage shows how it would be beneficial to receive the Lord’s chastening.

    I have entitled our message this evening, “Receiving the Lord’s Chastening,” and I wish to begin by sharing an illustration entitled, “God’s Loving Kick”: A Norfolk-Southern train was rolling down the rails of Indiana at 24 miles per hour. Suddenly the conductor, Robert Mohr, spotted an object ...read more

    The Dark Lord - The Lord Of The Ring Series

     | 7,653 views

    Satan is the real "Dark Lord" and while the Bible tells us he is defeated, he is still dangerous. How do we deal with this powerful force of evil and overcome?

    OPEN: Several years ago, I watched a PBS Special that covered the events leading up to the "Battle of the Bulge" during WWII. It was the autumn of 1944 and Germany had been beaten back behind its borders. The Nazi war machine was in tatters and the repeated bombing raids of the Allies all but ...read more

    Beyond our three decades of ministry, and in spite of the terrors of this world, we have great reason to rejoice in the Lord! (Context of sermon: Preached on our Congregation's Rally Day and 30th Anniversary.)

    [Singing] “This is the day / This is the day / That the Lord has made / That the Lord has made / I will rejoice / I will rejoice / And be glad in it / And be glad in it!” I worked at a camp in Wisconsin one summer, and we sang this song every day.

    Jesus taught His men during His Last Supper that His death would mean the beginning of the New Covenant.

    Our King Jesus’ Last Supper Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 9, 2018
     | 9,588 views

    Jesus deliberately organises the last supper so there won’t be interruptions. Jesus uses the bread and wine to point to a future relationship; He uses an argument to teach humble servant hood; and He gives encouragement so our faith may not fail.

    Message Luke 22:7-38 Our King Jesus’ Last Supper If you knew that your meal tonight was going to be your last meal, what would you do? What setting would you choose? Who would you invite? What would you eat? I suspect a lot of us would choose a really lovely setting, perhaps over-looking the ...read more

    How should we approach the Lord

    Partaking the Lord’s Supper Matthew 26:17-30 * The Last Supper (or the “Lord’s Supper”) has been portrayed in a myriad of artistic paintings. Some artists have rendered this occasion as a festive time while others give the feel of a more solemn time. When we combine the gospel accounts, it would ...read more

    There were three sets of people present at our Lord's betrayal.

    Last time, we looked at our Lord’s struggle in Gethsemane. We said it was in Gethsemane that Jesus overcame the reluctance of His flesh to submit to the trial and task of the cross. Having spent time in prayer with the Father about what He was being asked to face, Jesus was prepared. After this ...read more

    The Fear Of The Lord And The Love Of The Lord

     | 7,313 views

    The Lord is to be feared, especially by those who are in rebellion against Him. However, the fear of the Lord seems to be absent from many churches. Is that spiritually healthy?

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 4:35-41 which we will read in a few minutes. This past week I saw a video of a comedienne ridiculing a devout, born again Christian and she was saying, “I am Christian, I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things.” So, setting her slander aside, I was ...read more
