    Fleeing From God Series

     | 9,824 views

    To escape the presence of God is not rational thinking, certainly for a prophet of God. But how many of us are rational when we reject God’s commands and escape his attention? And that leads us to consider how much Jonah is like us.

    Jonah 1:1-4 Fleeing from God 10/19/14 D. Marion Clark Introduction Responding to the call of God is a mixed bag among biblical characters. There is Abraham, the model of obedience. God calls him to leave his homeland and he leaves. God calls him to sacrifice his son, and he rises early the next ...read more

    To remember, pride is trusting your own strength, your own righteousness, and your own wisdom. Pride is a trap that even the strong, the righteous, and the wise may fall into many times.

    Permission from God Today's message is permission from God. We will meditate on three important scripture passages from Luke, Job, & 1 Kings. Shall we ask ourselves: Do we ever believe that God gives permission to Satan to come against us or to take us into bondage? We are also going to ...read more

    Recently our church was accused of idolatry because we have a cross in our sanctuary and one in front of the church. Are our crosses idols? Can they be idols? Hmmm.....

    No Idols ... Just Give Me Jesus Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Psalm 1:1-2 “Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.

    As children of God we must be reminded that when people humiliate us or deride us, others may not be aware of the pain we go through, but the Lord who sees deep within, is mindful of all our hurts.

    Honor from God We read in Psalm 91:15, “When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.” (ESV) In continuation with our study on Psalm 91, we will consider the life of a man named Jabez, to comprehend how the Lord can deliver us and honor us ...read more

    Will we accept the sacrifice of Christ as sufficient ... or will you continue doing life yourself? Easter is about the glory of the Father revealed in the Son, and we either accept that or turn away from it.

    America has become the land of idolatry. But before I make that claim, I need to make sure that I have the right definition of idolatry.

    Illus: Dr. Billy Graham says, "We usually think of an idol as a religious figure carved of wood or stone, perhaps in some primitive tribe far removed from civilization. But we have our "idols" today, because an idol is anything that you worship in place of the living God. Some ...read more

    Zacharias, and his wife Elizabeth, were good people. They loved the Lord and attempted to follow after Him with all their heart. They were well thought of people, both being descendants of Aaron; however, there was one major blight on their life: they h

    For several weeks, I have been meditating on the biblical account of Zacharias being approached by the angel Gabriel and given the news about soon to be birth of John The Baptist.
