    The Gospel: Spirit Led Series

     | 5,756 views

    We have two natures and they are diametrically opposed. The sinful nature verses the spiritual nature. Each nature desires what is contrary to the other. All Christians have this internal conflict. But living by the Spirit brings victory.

    It can be a shocking discovery. It takes place in the slums of our big cities. It takes place in upscale suburban subdivisions. And it is taking place right now inside of your mouth. Maybe you have seen the mouthwash commercials that show the inside of a mouth magnified by one thousand ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,083 views

    Mountain-Top experiences may be good but can easily get you in your head. We must not forget that the Valley experiences are the ones that shape, discipline and position you where God desires you to be.

    Opening illustration: Five year old Johnny was in the kitchen as his mother made supper. She asked him to go into the pantry and get her a can of tomato soup, but he didn’t want to go in alone. "It’s dark in there and I’m scared." She asked again, and he persisted. Finally she ...read more

    This is the fourth message in a series from the book of Ecclesiastes that examines Solomon's wisdom in regard to the mistakes that he had made in his life. This message examines why God has wired us to need and desire relationships.

    Dear Diary, “Every time I open myself up for a relationship I get kicked in the teeth. Why do we need relationships? Why should take the risk of being hurt again?” If you are like me you have been hurt and betrayed by someone you thought was your friend. These experiences really cause ...read more

    In the introduction to the letter to Titus Paul states his reason for living. Paul lived for the faith of believers and to give them the knowledge of eternal truth. The purpose of our life also needs to be defined if we desire to be focused

    TITUS 1: 1-4 OUR LIVING HOPE How would you like to be personally discipled by Paul the Apostle? Obviously Paul can't physically disciple us, but he did disciple others. Titus is one of Paul's disciples and Paul wrote a book to him to help disciple him. As we study this letter to Titus, we ...read more

     | 6,384 views

    Faith must be exercised or it becomes limited. You will never do what God desires of you in your own strength. Faith works best in the impossible realm because that is where God does His best.

    Amazing Faith Luke 6:46-6:49 Introduction- Talk to you about faith! If you had to describe your faith, what would it look like? Better yet, how would someone else describe your faith? Is it out of the box? Extreme? Expectant? Or would you have to shaky, unstable, overtaken by times of doubt? I want ...read more

    At some points in life, we do not get all we desires at our own time despite prayer; at such time God is waiting for a reason, wait for him, don't give up, WAIT FOR HIM

    GOD IS NEVER LATE John 11: 1-15 John 11:1-15 1 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) 3 Therefore his sisters sent ...read more

    Obedience is a key character that God Almighty desires from us and we therefore need to develop the culture of obedience to obey His Word and do according to His will. Obedience to God always ends in glory

     | 8,045 views

    If the Church of God desires to see the Kingdom of God established within the hearts of all people, then we need to take Jesus command to make disciples very serious. It is discipleship that humanity receives back the creation mandate

    INTRODUCTION Whenever we talk of Disciples and Discipleship, the attention of most of us quickly moves to the Original disciples of Jesus, others like Paul, and or Church leaders/executives. Seldom do we think that we are all supposed to be Disciples of Christ, called to touch each other’s lives ...read more

    The Two Sides Of Prayer

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Aug 4, 2022
     | 4,848 views

    . Prayer is the soul’s sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed, The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear; The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. –Author unknown.

    The Two Sides of Prayer By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - Oftentimes prayer is the most neglected area in a person’s life. The lack of prayer has weakened our spiritual body and because of this we often find ourselves spiritually feeble, without strength and even the crumbling of our ...read more

    What Paul was doing in the early church we are to continue to do the same today. The caveat is that we must always be careful not to bend the message of the gospel to fit the preference or desires of those to whom we are sharing the gospel.
