    Practical implications of our new birth.

    DOERS, NOT HEARERS ONLY. James 1:22-27. We must be careful that we are “doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving our own selves” (James 1:22). Having heard and received, we must then put the word into action in our lives. Good works do not make us Christians, but Christians will do good ...read more

    Your Next Blessing May Just Be In Your House

    WHAT YOU DO HAVE 2 Kings 4:1-7 No one has everything they need. This applies to both the natural and spiritual realms. No one is perfect yet. We all have problems and experience lack in some way.

    Paul lists different people groups in the church and then advises Timothy how to treat them. 1- The older men 2- The younger men 3- The older women 4- The younger women 5- The widows

    INTRO.- We must admit there is a discrimination in our world: racial, political, religious, financial, and any other kind you want to talk about. ILL.- For example, I remember back when I was in elementary (or grade school, as we called it) that there were a few kids whom we considered to be less ...read more

    A Chronicle Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on May 30, 2016
     | 8,002 views

    This sermon explores Elijah's interactions with the widow of Zarephath, and we learn that God never abandons us, faith requires obedience, and to receive a blessing I must be a blessing. Faith was the key to Elijah's ministry.

    Hebrews 11 has been called God’s “Hall of Faith.” Like the Hall of Fame in sports or other arenas of life, Hebrews 11 gives us the names and tells us, if ever so briefly, what God’s people accomplished “by faith.” We hear such profound accomplishments ...read more

    This message is based on the parable of the persistent widow. It’s a call to prayer. It was written as the Iraqi crisis completed the first week. It concludes with directives on how to pray for our troops and our nation.

    Living on a Prayer Dr. Marty Baker / Luke 18:1-8 / March 23, 2003 Sometimes I struggle with prayer. I wonder if God can really hear me? Am I getting through? In my mind I know that prayer is the a direct line to God and that with God all things are possible, but does God have time to take me ...read more

    As a woman, single, married, mother, widow you can possess the joy of being alive. God has given your gifts to serve Him and make an impact on your family and community.

    Mothers Gifted by God 2 Timothy 1:3-7 Genesis 2:15-25 Today is a special day for all of us to remember our Mothers. For some of us the memories are pleasant and for others not so pleasant.

    The widows cruse of oil was all she had, but oh how much it became the full provision for her life. That's the type of the Holy Spirit anointing, or unction, within the heart of the Believer.

    Keep the Oil Flowing Sunday, April 3, 2016 By Rev James May Our God is an awesome God! Jesus is a Risen Savior and he is alive! Before he left this world to go into Heaven and sit down at the Father’s right hand as King of Kings forever, he promised to send us a Comforter. That Comforter ...read more

     | 12,379 views

    We continue looking at the astounding mathematics of grace by looking at a widow's very small offering that Jesus says is more than anyone else gave. I also have graphics available.

    (Show video of comedian Anthony Griffith talking about hand-me-downs) That's funny. Hand-me-downs, leftovers; those things are okay I guess if you're talking about old clothes or your mom's cooking. But there are other times when leftovers aren't such a good idea: handkerchiefs, motor oil, maybe ...read more

    Religion to most is external- what you look like. Jesus says that a religion that is worth anything begins internally with a relationship with Him and will be lived out to the widows and orphans that we meet in life.

    Having a religion that is worth something James 1:19-1:27 Introduction- We are continuing to be in the series Nuts and Bolts of life. We have looked at relationships, both with God and others. We have looked last week at trusting God when we are in difficult times, and this morning we will look ...read more

    To establish that “pure religion” is not a feeling, but a faithful service to others by those who live daily to remain pure and unspotted from the world. Pure religion has it origin from the Word of God; not from the words of men!

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. Perceived Religions 2. Pure Religion 3. Practices of Religion Remarks. 1. James speaks of “pure religion” that which is undefiled, what it is not; what it is; and what are it practices. He writes: “If any man among you seems to be religious, and ...read more

    What Do We Do When Tragedy Strikes?”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 2, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,230 views

    This section of God's Word shows us how two people responded to a tragedy. One example comes from a widow whose son died. The other comes from one of the greatest prophets in the Old Testament, Elijah.

    At some point it will likely happen to most of us. For each of us it will be different and yet the same. It will leave us with tears in our eyes and pain in our hearts. We call them tragedies—something that seems to turn our lives upside down. Because we live in a world stained by sin these ...read more

    Jesus taught us to pray for free and not all is real that you see. James says why we do not receive.

    Mat 24:24  For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.  2Th 2:8  And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his ...read more

    The parable of the unrighteous judge and persistent widow teaches us much about the need for persistence in prayer and how God moves in our lives to answer our prayer and bring about God’s will.

    Luke 18:1-8 “The Art of Asking” INTRODUCTION I received an E-mail message that contained a list of questions with no clear-cut answer. • Why do doctors and lawyers call what they do practice? • Why is abbreviation such a long word? • Why is a boxing ring square? • What was the best thing ...read more
