    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’. For every action of ours we can be certain that there is a ...read more

    Why is it important to consider proofs for the resurrection of Christ? Because if there is no resurrection, our preaching is empty and your faith is empty.

    PROOFS FOR THE RESURRECTION OPENING TEXT: “Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you--unless you believed in vain.
