The Need For Divine Change - Multitudes are without God, without Christ, without hope in the world. That is the way Paul speaks of them. That distinction is there throughout the Bible - not just here - but here the Holy Spirit directs the apostle to focus on this distinction. Those who are in the flesh: that is who are unregenerate, who are not born of God, who not in Christ.
Let Marriage Be Held In Honour Among All - The Bible is telling us: Let marriage always be thought of as precious. Let it be treasured like gold and silver and rare jewels. Let it be revered and respected like the noblest, most virtuous person you have ever known.
Parable of the Vine and the Branches, John 15:5 - Many are called to become leaders, assisting others in their spiritual journey. Spiritual leaders - clergy or lay, seek to meet the needs of people in their own congregations or communities of faith. But spiritual leaders have unique and often overlooked needs of their own.
Confidence In Prayer - Are you tired of praying and not getting results in your prayer life? If so, you probably need to examine your confidence level in this area. A lack of confidence in prayer simply comes from not knowing God's Word. Too many Christians pray emotional, fear-based prayers, hoping that they get through to God.

In order for your church to grow, people must feel grateful for what you are doing for them. Every pastor/leader has a few good thoughts about increasing the attendance of their church on a given Sunday or about growing the overall attendance of their church. If you happen to lack for ideas, in the book of Acts we investigate what caused such tremendous growth amongst the first century church.
Proverbs 18:21 teaches "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits." In other words, what we speak has power to cause death or life. One of the ways that we choose life and not death is by the words we choose to speak. Everything in the world operates by the words we speak. A person's feelings and emotions can dramatically change because of the words..
The first thing we shall look at is the times when Jesus says people had little or inadequate faith. Jesus never said to any sick person "You remain sick because you lack faith." When the disciples fail to heal the epileptic boy…He blames the disciples and not the boy. It was the failure of the disciples’ faith not the lack of the sick person's faith that worried Jesus.
AIM2040 Teaching is a study of religion as a science of living. It is an interpretation of the teachings of Jesus Christ with prime emphasis on practice. Our apostolic teaching is a technique in realizing the abundant life. It consists of thoughts to think, words to speak, positive and creative things to do. These techniques for abundant living are not simply to read, but to affirm and decree ...
Divine healing is a special healing. The only kind of healing that can come from The Master’s touch. His healing hand goes into the depths of our souls; a favourable healing. Nobody does it like God can! We want an answer, but God gives us a solution. I told the devil that not only was my healing already paid for, but so was my peace of mind, for Christ’s chastisement already bought my healing...
1 Thessalonians is either the first or second oldest book in the New Testament,it is the first of two canonical letters written to the church at Thessalonica. THE PURPOSE: To communicate thanksgiving, exhortation, and instruction to new believers in the midst of persecution. The intended result, then, is that the saints at Thessalonica might excel still more and be blameless at Christ's coming.
What makes a model ministry? How can we be the church that God wants us to be? We have four strategies: learn the Word, live the life, love the body, and lead the world. We believe these four strategies are what God has called us to fulfill,these strategies are addressed rather nicely in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12. Paul tells us that this can happen when we serve Christ with pure and parental hearts.
We discover that even godly and competent leaders need encouragement. Even though many leaders look confident and secure on the outside, on the inside they can be discouraged and insecure. God’s leaders are constantly under attack from Satan and need to be encouraged. More importantly, Apostle Paul seems to be affirming team leadership as the basic New Testament pattern. Paul was a team player.
Christmas can be a lonely time if you have lost your job, your family or your sense of hope. And the joy of others can be a painful reminder of what you have lost. But you are not alone. You may feel lonely, but you are not alone. - God is with you. He really is! Believe that, and you will have a blessed Christmas. For He will be called Immanuel...God is with us!
God said to his Son in heaven: "The time is fulfilled; I have promised blessing; now is the time to make good on my promise; you will be my emissary of blessing; I want blessing to come to the world; I have so much to give; go now and bless my people, bless them; indeed bless all the families of the earth through them, bless them, bless them."
