God's Outstretched Hand.

Contributed by Darrell Jones on Jun 10, 2005

The Bible speaks of the Eyes of the Lord looking upon His people,(2Chron.16:9). We also read of the arm of the Lord bringing strength. I want to look today at the "Mighty Outstretched Hand of God."

Five times in the Book of Isaiah we read, "the hand of the Lord is stretched out still." (Is.5:25,9:12, 9:17,9:21,&10:4). I want to just list a few of the distinguishing powers that are characteristic of the Hand of our God. (A) His hand is so vast that the mighty oceans lie in the hollow of it. ...read more

3 Crosses @ Calvary

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 15, 2011

This incident, on the road to Calvary, and then at the sight of the crucifixion, reveals both God and man as they truly are. It exposes man as incredibly cruel, and God as amazingly kind and compassionate. It is man who is evil, and God who is good.

Then as you would look at the crowd gathered around the foot of that cross, you’d be impressed by the various facial expressions and ...read more

This world seems to be in the same condition as was this woman. Satan blinds people as to the true identity of the Lord Jesus ...read more

Do You Live In The Fear Of The Lord All The Day Long?

Contributed by David Leach on Jun 1, 2014
