Sure Reward Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 8, 2021

In these trying times when calamity engulfs us, many have grown weary in their prayer life. God wants to reassure such that there is definitely a reward for those who pray fervently. The time we spend alone in the presence of God, behind shut doors is not in vain.

Psalm 91 - Study 20 - A Sure Reward We read in Psalm 91:8, “Only with your eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked.” (NKJV) The word that we will study in depth from the above mentioned verse is the word ‘reward’.

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Mar 1, 2021

The Last Breakfast Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

The Lord's supper was prepared by others, but the Lord's breakfast is really just that, it is the Lord's breakfast that He prepared Himself. This is the only men's breakfast we read about in the Bible, and the Lord of the universe is both the host and the cook.

The Bible says God's mercies are new every morning, and the result is that many of His blessings have come to His people at breakfast. Hudson Taylor, the founder of the China Inland Mission, tells of this event in his life as he prepared to go to China. When he got to China he knew he would ...read more

David In Saul’s Camp

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 8, 2022

We see another magical moment when David walks with God and ventures into the impossible. God gave David Saul’s spear-scepter and the king's source of anointing. This was a prevision of what David was later to gain as King.

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Sep 21, 2022

The Christian life is a walk, it's a run, but never forget... it is a fight, and the warfare is real, and we get tired, but we cannot go to sleep. A sleeping saint is a powerless saint and is no threat to the devil.

1 Thessalonians 5:5-9 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. [7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken ...read more
