    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

    Call To Wake Up

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 3 views

    Each generation of Christians is the seed of the next, and degenerate seed is sure to produce a degenerate harvest; not a little better than but worse than the seed from which it sprang.

    Opening illustration: Play video. Introduction: THERE IS ALSO SPIRITUAL sleep. Notice Ephesians 5:14: "Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead." This verse is often spoken to sinners, but it was not written to sinners. Ephesians was never written to sinners. It is not a message to sinners ...read more

    This shepherd was able to rejoice with his friends and neighbors because his lost sheep was found. He was overjoyed with the rescue of this one, lost sheep.

    Opening illustration: Did you ever have a kid in your neighborhood that always hid so good nobody could find him? We did. After a while we would give up on him and go off, leaving him to rot wherever he was. Soon or later he would show up all-mad because we didn’t keep looking for him. And we would ...read more

    Awaken To The Times

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 19 views

    Though the world may persecute us, and evil may seem to prevail, we must still work for Christ. The Church must shine for Him. We must preach and demonstrate the gospel, for without us, how will the world know Christ?

    Opening illustration: All of us are slaves to time. We wear wristwatches or have timers on our smart phones to keep us on schedule. We have digital clocks in our car and alarm clocks on our nightstands. Lots of people keep a Day-Timer nearby so they can keep track of their appointments and ...read more

    Anointing Makes The Difference

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 3 views

Alexander told the man to go to his treasurer and ask for whatever he needed. A little later, the treasurer came to Alexander and told him he was hesitant to give the man what he ...read more

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 8 views

    What needs to be revived (facilitated) are MIRACLES, DOUBLE-ANOINTING and THE HARVEST. You and I have a major role to play.

    Opening illustration/video. Introduction: Abraham Heschel once wrote, “To be a prophet is both a distinction and an affliction.” Elijah was no exception.

    This Man Should Not Be Alone

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 12 views

    If you meet a man who is not in His presence, not working, who cannot cultivate and protect you and teach you the Word of God, is it good for that man to be alone?

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 7 views

    Where are you? Are you hiding, afraid of God, because of sin in your life? Maybe you’re trying to cover your sin with the fig leaves of your good works.

    Introduction: Does this mean that God didn't know something? Not at all. Someone can easily ask a question to which they know the answer. Usually, the reason to do that is to point something out or teach something. Obviously, Adam and Eve had sinned. God asked, "Adam, where are you?" ...read more

    Weaker Vessel

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 8 views

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 12 views

    The vision going into 2017 is “Pursuing to be a Disciple of Jesus.” Are we willing to position and place ourselves in that spot where the Spirit of God will disciple us.

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 4 views

    Are you in a position where all self-sufficiency is gone? As you turn your eyes on the Lord and put your hope in Him, you have God’s reassuring promise that you need nothing more.

    Opening illustration: A wise Bible teacher once said, “Sooner or later God will bring self-sufficient people to the place where they have no resource but Him – no strength, no answers, nothing but Him. Without God’s help, they are sunk.” He then told of a despairing man who confessed to his ...read more

     | 2 views

    It’s the journey, not just the destination, that’s important. Let your trials be a blessing to you.

    Opening illustration: If there is any such thing as a universal question, it may be this: Why are all these trials in my life? This is not a new question; generations of children have asked it. They have then grown into adults who must answer the same question when their children ...read more
