Honouring the Son of God who appoints to holy service may well bring the servant of God into conflict with those who are seeking an easy religion. The one who will serve God, must maintain perspective and remain focused on pleasing Him who appoints to His service.

Bethel: Where The Prophet Was Told To Leave Town!

Many things happened at Bethel, including this visit from one of God's true prophets who came face to face with the priest of that city. God's prophet preached--but what happened afterwards?

Introduction: God’s prophets seldom if ever had an easy time of it. Consider Nathan, who had the duty to inform David that what he had done with Bathsheba was sin. David was king and could have said only one word and the result would have been one less prophet! David’s own great-great-grandson Asa ...read more

| 6,048 views

This message is about God's standard (plumb line) for how we should live. A plumb line is used to ensure that what is being built is straight, centered and balanced enabling the structure to fulfill it's purpose. Spiritually it's the same for us.

Fidelity To God's Call

When we hear the word “prophet”, we often think of someone whose primary job is to tell the future. But prophets had a much more important job: they were called to bring the hard truth to God’s people, so that they would realize their need for reconciliation with God.

INTRODUCTION When we hear the word “prophet”, we often think of someone whose primary job is to tell the future. We might equate the term with “soothsayer”, “seer,” or even in a non-Christian context, “fortune teller”. We most often judge a prophet by whether or not their words come true. There is ...read more

Calling All Nobodies

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022

| 1,780 views

The idolatrous priest Amaziah tries to intimidate the prophet Amos. He did not appreciate Amos’ message against the king. But Amos wan't trying to be popular--God had called him out of an ordinary life of shepherding and gathering fruit. In other words, Amos was a nobody.

This passage teaches us a valuable lesson: God calls and uses nobodies, those who are shunned by the world or overlooked. Amos, Moses, and David were just shepherds. Joseph was just a boy with a dream. Ruth was an outcast, an outsider. Esther was just a regular Jewish girl. These people were ...read more
