The Lion Roars as Ruler
by Ernest Easley
As you are turning to 1 Chronicles 21 if you were asked to name David's great sin chances are you would say ''Bathsheba.'' Yes the sin with Bathsheba was most certainly his greatest sin. After all THAT SIN was not only a sin against God a sin against himself a sin against Bathsheba a sin against Bathsheba's husband and her family. And if that wasn't bad enough because of THAT SIN we read in 2 Samuel 11.17 that Uriah, her husband was killed. Now as bad as David's sin was with Bathsheba I want to show you a sin that David committed that by far surpassed his sin with Bathsheba. You ask, ''Is that possible?'' It is and I'll show...
I Love My Church
by James Merritt
1. Recently someone sent me a list entitled, ''Satan's Beatitudes.'' They said if the devil were to write his Beatitudes they would probably go something like this: - Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians-they are my best workers. - Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked, and expect to be thanked-I can use them.- Blessed are the touchy. With a bit of luck they may stop going to church-they are my missionaries. - Blessed are the troublemakers-they shall be called my children. - Blessed are the complainers-I'm all ears to them.- Blessed...
Understanding the Times
by Jim Henry
I had an interview with several people who have been asked what their thoughts were in the aftermath of September 11th. One man, and I think he was from the West Coast, made a very pungent statement. He said, ''I have sober questions that need sober answers.'' I think that he probably voiced what many people are thinking these days. Personally, I've been trying to sort out my feelings and understanding of the times. It's hard for me to pull it all together. But, I realize as I was listening, reading and watching, that a lot of people are going through ''What about this, and what about that, and who are these, and what are we going...
The Power of Belief (2 of 4)
by Jeff Strite
The following sermon was used in conjunction with the book ''Take God at His Word, Book 2: Expect a Harvest'' written by Dr. Kregg Hood, Sweet Publishing (5750 Stratum Drive, Fort Worth, Texas 76137) Dr. Hood has an excellent packet to go with this sermon series that would be well worth your investigation. OPEN: A mother wanted to teach her daughter a moral lesson. She gave the little girl a quarter and a dollar for church. ''Put whichever one you want in the collection plate and keep the other for yourself,'' she told the girl. When they were leaving church, the mother asked her daughter which amount she had given.''Well,'' said...
The Proud Heart of Uzziah (3 Of 6)
by Ken Trivette
1. Nathaniel Hawthorne said, ''A grave, wherever it is found, preaches a short and pithy sermon to the soul.'' Epitaphs at times, although but a few lines, tell us a lot about the person buried. 2. I think of the grave of one certain Scottish man. His marker reads: Here lies Andrew MacPherson, Who was a peculiar person; He stood six foot two Without his shoe, And he was slew, At Waterloo. 3. It may have been a trite way of putting it, but whoever reads his tombstone knows that Andrew MacPherson was a tall man who was killed in the battle of Waterloo. 4. You take the marker that is found on a grave in Chelmsford, England. The story it tells...
The Sovereignty of God (8 of 12)
by Stan Coffey
When we say that God is in control, theologians call this the sovereignty of God; that God is in control of everything; that God is on the throne, that beyond everything we see and behind everything we see that we do not understand there is the providence and the purpose of God who is in control of everything. For example, God is in control for nature; He is sovereign over nature because He created nature and He sustains nature. God is sovereign over history. The Bible teaches that history is moving toward a purpose, the things that are happening in the world today, the fall of Communism, the opening of Eastern Europe to...
The Giant of Evil Desires (4 of 5)
by Jeff Schreve
I wanted to tell you about a woman I heard about. She was in a diet club. She was meeting with these other ladies and they were trying to keep each other accountable. She was lamenting to these women. She said, ''I blew it. I blew it so bad this week.'' They said, ''Tell us about it.'' She said, ''I baked my family's favorite cake. We had it at dinner and everyone had a piece and we ate half the cake at dinner. The next day, my husband went off to work and my kids went off to school and I was home alone with the cake. I looked at the cake and looked at the cake and passed by it several times and I thought, I just want a piece so bad so I just cut...
A Magnificent Obsession
by J. Gerald Harris
In 1929 Lloyd C. Douglas wrote a book entitled Magnificent Obsession. In this book he tells about a young man who lived a fairly reckless life. As a drunken playboy he was in an automobile accident that resulted in a young woman losing her sight. This tragedy resulted in the playboy mending his ways. He became obsessed with the idea of restoring this woman's sight. He became a respected surgeon and prepared himself to perform the delicate operation that would result in the restoration of this woman's sight. To restore her sight became his passion; his goal, his desire, his obsession. What is the goal of your life? What...
1 Chronicles: Back to the Heart of Worship (4 of 10)
by Roger Thomas
Introduction: A contemporary worship song we have been using in recent months has these lyrics: When the music fades, and all has passed away, and I simply come. Longing just to bring something that's of worth, that will bless your heart.I'm coming back to the heart of worship, Cause it's all about You, all about You Jesus. I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it, When it's all about You, all about You, Jesus. I'll bring You more than a song, for a song in its self, is not what You have desired, You search much deeper within from the way things appear, You're looking into my heart. I'm coming back to the heart of worship, Cause it's all about You, all about You Jesus.I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it,When...
When the Devil Won't Give Up
by Steve Wagers
A little boy watched, fascinated, as his mother gently rubbed cold cream on her face. ''Why are you rubbing cold cream on your face, Mommy?'' he asked. ''To make myself beautiful,'' said his mother. A few minutes later, she began removing the cream with a tissue. ''What's the matter?'' he asked. ''Are you giving up?'' GOOD news - The devil isn't GOING TO WIN BAD news -
