    Overcoming Spiritual Weakness

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 31, 2025
     | 794 views

    Spiritual weakness is a condition that every believer encounters at different stages in their walk with God. It is not necessarily a sign of sin, but often a result of prolonged trials, discouragement, weariness in battle, unanswered prayers, or lack of spiritual nourishment.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 40:31 Supporting Texts: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, Romans 8:26, Ephesians 6:10, Hebrews 12:12-13, Psalm 73:26 INTRODUCTION: Spiritual weakness is a condition that every believer encounters at different stages in their walk with ...read more

    Solemnity Of Saints Peter And Paul, Apostles

     | 1,062 views

    Paul’s sense of being captured by Christ defined his spiritual experience. Peter understands his error when a vision enlightens him to a fundamental truth: that which has been purified by God cannot be called "profane" by anyone.

    At the narrowest part of the strait of Gibraltar, where two land masses meet (Africa and Europe, at the mouth of the Med), there are cliffs called the “Pillars of Hercules.” It was the end of the known world.

    This message reveals some of the reasons Jesus’ fame spread.

    Text: “And immediately His fame spread throughout the region around Galilee” (Mark 1:28). What does it mean to gain fame or become famous?

    Is It Worth It?

     | 5,134 views

    Ministry of any kind can be discouraging. In the long run, serving God and man pays off if we don't give up (Galatians 6.9).

    1. Followers of Yeshua (Jesus) are called to imitate his life of service For the Son of man also came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Mark 10.45 2.

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - When Jesus Skips Out On Church, You Know Someth Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 3, 2010
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,144 views

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - WHEN JESUS SKIPS OUT ON CHURCH, YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG! I remember as a young student Pastor being invited to a Church for afternoon tea. They said they wanted to pray for me. What I didn't realise is that they wanted to pray for me to be their Pastor. At the end ...read more
