    LENT 1(A) - Mankind is not control because man’s disobedience brings sin and death BUT Christ’s perfect obedience provides grace and life.

    Learning self control is about how your mind learns to rule your body, your passions, your hungers and your appetites.

    SE110302 CHARACTER UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1 Self-Control INTRO: Who said the following?: "With all the power that a President has, the most important thing to bear in mind is this: You must not give power to a man unless, above everything else, he has character.

    The Illusion Of Control Series

    FCF: God is in control. If things seem out of control, maybe it is because somebody else thinks they’re able to take God’s place.

    We’re going to begin looking at Daniel 2 for the next three weeks, because it does a wonderful job of teaching us something so fundamental: How to talk to God. As Christians, each and every one of us is blessed with direct line to God himself. It’s almost magical to think about that fact. But I ...read more

    Grace, peace and mercy be unto you all who are redeemed by the blood of the lamb. Amen. Sermon: I want to tell you a story about a little boy who got mad at God. The mother was very concerned with the behavior of her son. When the family bowed their heads to say grace the little boy stared off ...read more

    During that time, I discovered that when a person is able to face terrifying obstacles with the assurance that God is truly in control, an awesome sense of power, strength, assurance, and confidence begins to well up inside your heart.

    God is in Control Psalm 103:19-22 I remember a particular time in my life when I was struggling a bit with discouragement, doubt, fear, and loneliness. I spent many evenings having long conversations with a close friend, to whom I poured out my heart for hours. Many times during these talks, my ...read more

    A look at Daniel chapter 2 where we examine some of the Christian myths about Daniel’s propechies, learn that God is in control and that God answers prayer.

    In a cartoon, a man was phoning his pastor during a crisis. With a fraught look, the man asks the minister: "My wife has left me, my kids are on drugs, and my life is falling apart. Can you explain to me the difference between amillennialism, postmillennialism, and premillennialism?" We have and ...read more

    Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them into something good in our lives.

    Matthew 4 God is in Control (4:1) 1. Jesus “was led up by the Spirit…” - God is in control here. - This was all apart of God’s plan. - God doesn’t transform trials into good. - Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them ...read more

    self-control - is at the heart of our faithful walk before God and people. We lose it in small ways which leads to bigger problems

    Respectable Sins – Self-Control How often have you had someone say to you ‘He who is without sin cast the first stone?’ Or maybe you have someone say to you ‘Judge not lest you be judged?’ I reckon they must two verses which are most often taken out of their context and misapplied.

    Though in captivity Daniel’s story is a clarion call to us to THRIVE in the challenges of our cultural setting, and in so doing draw attention to our sovereign God.

    Daniel is an inspiring book that brings both a challenge and hope to all those who recognize that we are living in an environment that is alien to the lives we have been called to. This was Daniel’s experience. The book records the experiences of 4 Hebrew men taken into captivity by an evil ...read more

    No matter what man may do, God is still in charge and WILL have the last say.

    God is in Control!

    Part 4 - When God is in control, I don’t have to be.

    Who likes to be in charge? Be honest, how many of you like to be in charge, you like to be in control? Most of us, even if we don’t like the responsibility, do like to be in control. It’s a natural thing. That doesn’t mean it’s right, but it is natural. WE We like to have our way. We ...read more

    The struggle for self-control goes on entirely inside an individual, but the results of self-control, or lack of it, show up entirely on the outside of a person.

    “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23) It’s probably fitting that “self-control” is the last fruit of the Spirit in our nine week study. It may be the most ...read more
