     | 298 views

    The same God who lifted the lowly, made a way where there was none, and fought battles for His people is still at work today. He does not change, and He is still in control of your situation. What He has done before, He will do again.

    THAT SAME GOD – PART 4 By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Samuel 17:37 – “David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.

    Jesus was in the world and the world knew Him not.

    Introduction: The now infamous Lance Armstrong once said, “A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.” And he hit the nail on the head, because no one wants to be rejected. It can make you conclude what Oprah Winfrey said, “I don’t want anyone who doesn’t want me” because no one wants the door slammed in ...read more

    Jesus said that His Father prunes His children. The richest, the fullest, the most fruitful lives are those that have been strengthened through the painful process of tribulation. We have no right to believe that God will use us until He has cut away wha

    The invitation was to live in the ways of God. It was an invitation to come back to the ways that the people knew were right. When Hosea uses the words “let us”, he speaks in clear terms here to communicate that those who needed to return to the LORD were not alone.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Play the video “RESTORED.” Israel had wondered far away from its place of origin. As if a child lost in a store, she is drawn away by delights of the eye, sensual insights and an overwhelming urgency to seek her own way. She awakens; finding herself tossed into the gutter of ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 167 views

    There are so many people who are lonely because of various reasons. Jesus the Son of God, experienced loneliness and desertion too. Jesus died in our place to reconcile us back to God and has promised those who trust in Him that He will be with us from now to eternity, so we never need be alone.

    We read in Mark 14:50, “And they all left Him and fled.” These messages for the next two or three weeks will focus on the way of the cross that Jesus had to undergo. As the time drew near for Jesus to be crucified, He faced some of the loneliest moments, when all of His disciples deserted Him, ...read more

    The town of Emmaus was on the road to nowhere, at least until Christ came.

    What You Can Learn on the Way to Nowhere Luke 24:13-35 Introduction It seems that nobody thought Jesus was alive. The disciples thought the women’s report was crazy. Even the investigation by Peter and John of the empty tomb had mixed results. Jesus had told them when He was alive that he ...read more
