Don’t Forget To Remember (Sermon On Missions)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Sep 27, 2023

One of the simple rules in life seems to be that people receive in life what they are looking for.

Let me illustrate: • We know some Christians who are always winning people to the Lord. Why? Because they are always looking for an opportunity to win someone to Christ. • We know some people every time there is a church dispute; you can rest assured they are in the middle of it every time.

The Great Commission

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 21, 2022

From three of the gospel writers we find “four” accounts of the Great Commission. As we examine each account, we gain a better understanding of what Jesus requires, and what we are able to accomplish through the Lord’s power.

This morning we are going to look at four separate passages on what is known among believers as The Great Commission. The Great Commission is all about missions, since the word “commission” contains the word “mission” in it. Now, that word “commission” means, “charge, order, or mandate.”(1) This ...read more

Asking And Believing

Contributed by Joe Rowland on Nov 29, 2009

Joash’s actions, blessed by Elisha, released the power of God on behalf of Israel. This was an act of obedience, which affected the destiny of an entire nation. Victory or defeat, survival or slaughter, was determined by this apparent silly action.

And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. 15 And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and ...read more

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 8, 2011

Jesus had no sin or impure motives that gave Satan legal access to His life. Satan could find nothing in Jesus - not even one square inch of territory - to which he could lay claim and thus gain access to Jesus’ heart. This is the reason why there was pro

Crossing The Jordan

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 25, 2025

When challenged with Jordan like situations that seem overwhelming and impossible to tide over we must not lose heart. When we look back with gratitude, trust God for the impossible and stay grounded on His Word, we too will experience God’s mighty deliverance in our lives.
