    We live in a time were churches are having trouble finding preachers and the call to preach does not have the high position it once had. The tells us the heart attitude we should have as the church petitions the Lord for preachers.

    A Call for Proclaimers Asking God for Biblical Preachers Years back, it was not uncommon for churches to have more than one person who could be called upon to fill the pulpit in most churches in America. There were churches which had people, who were Biblically approved of God (2 Timothy 2:15) ...read more

    Listening to God requires absolute, coourageous obedience to Christ.

    “Renewable Energy: Listen Up!” Luke 9:28-36 There are many ways to say “Listen!” For example: “Shh! Listen!” - a whispered command so as not to disturb someone. Or “LISTEN TO ME!” - a loud command to get attention in as noisy place. Or “OK. ...read more

    We hear the words “Hands Up” used in two ways.

    1. IT IS USED IN A NEGATIVE WAY For example, when a criminal walks into a bank and says “Hands up,” everyone within the range of his voice knows what he means. The reason the criminal wants everyone to put their “Hands up” is because this signifies that everyone within the sound of his voice has ...read more

    Proverbs 24:10 The message Bible says, if you fall to pieces in a crisis, there wasn't much to you in the first place. The intent of that verse is not to condemn us for being weak, but to exhort to toughen up, to stir us up to the action of building ourselves up in the Lord.

    Proverbs 24:10 KJV If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. Proverbs 24:10 MSG If you fall to pieces in a crisis, there wasn't much to you in the first place.

    In Galatians 5:13b-15, Paul gives four purposes of God’s call to the freedom of loving Him: 1) To oppose the flesh (GALATIANS 5:13B), 2) To serve others (GALATIANS 5:13B), 3) To fulfill His moral law (GALATIANS 5:14), and 4) To avoid harming others (GALATIANS 5:15).
