    God invites us to ask Him, and we will receive (Mat 7:7). But why does He sometimes not answer our prayers? This sermon series explains several possibilities for why God does not grant our prayers.

    We have learned that God invites us to ask Him what we need (Matthew 7:7) because, number one, God wants us to be close to Him; number two, God wants us to always depend on Him; and number three, God wants to show His love to us. When we ask something from Him, we must be ready to get His ...read more

    “The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken” (Mat 12:35,36).

    The power of the tongue Prov. 10:11-22 The mouths of those who do right are a fountain of life. But the trouble caused by what sinners say destroys them. Prov. 10:11.

    Mordecai and Esther’s coziness became challenged when Haman ordered the eradication of the Jews. The time had come for them to stand up and speak out for God. Are we willing to stand up and speak out for what is right? Maybe we have been put where we are for such a time as this!

    Jesus is never late. He makes all things beautiful in His time. When it is someone's set time, at the very contact with Jesus, there will surely be a turn around testimonies that will leave a mark in the life of that believer. Surely, Jesus is the Lord of all.

    Psalm 102:3-5: 3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned like a hearth. 4 My heart is stricken and withered like grass, so that I forget to eat my bread. 5 Because of the sound of my groaning my bones cling to my skin.

    Somehow, we have the mistaken idea that the Christian life is like a fairy tale. That is, you accept the Lord as your Savior, and then then you live happily ever after! But there is no such life for any of us while we are here on earth.

    It does not matter: • If a person is rich or poor • What country a person lives in? • What family a person belongs to? NO ONE IS EXEMPT FROM THE SORROWS OF LIFE. Why is it important that we realize that!!! Illus: It is important because it makes me think of a young lady that was dating a ...read more
