    Encouragement to memorialise the sacrifice of those who serve the nation.

    “Your glory, O Israel, is slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen! Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised exult. “You mountains of Gilboa, let there be ...read more

    Our Seasons Of Grief

    Here we try to understand how David coped with the loss of his best friend Jonathan. Through David’s reactions we are challenged to embrace our seasons of grief in ways that would show that we are relying on God rather than relying on ourselves.

    Opener: This week we reflect on David’s real life struggle with grief. With last week’s teaching on fear, and this week’s text focussed on the theme of grief it seems like we’re wading through some heavy waters aren’t we? But this is good for us. Because I firmly believe that we (as followers ...read more

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more

    “And when he had entered, he said to them, ‘Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping’.” Mark 5:39

    Introduction: Man was created in the image and likeness of God with power to make choices. These choices determine the quality of our lives and our eternal destiny. Eve made the choice to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil rather than the fruit of the tree of life and ...read more

    One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. This message is about the importance of speaking in agreement with God.

    Are Your Words Testifying Against You? One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think.

    Lament For Mighty Series

     | 3,566 views

    This lamentation had written for the honor of King Saul and Jonathan. It is a homage rendered to them. The spiritual fall led him to have physical death before his enemies. Jonathan had fallen because of his company with his father. Take heed lest you fall.

    Text: 2 Samuel 1:17-27 Theme: The Mighty Have Fallen I greet you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The LORD is Good; His steadfast love endures forever.

    The Graceful Lips: Guard Your Heart Series

    So many people utter unguarded words which lands them into trouble. The mouth is so powerful that it can start war among nations and countries. Blasphemies, heresies, wrong preaching, even wrong construction of tenses, may pull a man down and even his entire family or countries to the ground.

    Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore, God hath blessed thee forever. (KJV) Psalms 45:2 He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of lips the king shall be his friend. (KJV) Proverbs 22:11 Preamble I was in a gathering of Christian friends, youth ...read more
