The death of Ezekiel’s wife is a puzzlement to many. How could a good God not only take Ezekiel’s wife in death but commanded that Ezekiel could not publicly mourn the loss of his wife? This message explains how we need to approach the unexplainable moments of life.

When we are physically showing symptoms of illness we usually resort to the medicine cabinet. No one likes being sick. But when it comes to our spiritual condition, we often neglect our spiritual health. This message, if you let it, will work like a physician's examination. We need to take spiritual inventory on a regular basis to maintain spiritual health.

A second message with this theme discusses God’s hiddenness in His delays to answer prayer and fulfill promises. God may seem withdrawn because we have grieved the Holy Spirit.

It is a strange thing to hear that God hides Himself, but the Bible clearly presents this view of God. He is a God who initiates relationship with us but He is not intrusive. He desires to be desired and reveals Himself to those who want Him.

No more remarkable fact than that Jesus is in God’s presence for us. We know He is in heaven because He is God and heaven is that is where the throne of God dwells. But the text says that Jesus appears in the presence of God for us. Listen and value how our High Priest performs His priestly duties for us now in the presence of God.

Every Christian is enrolled in the school of faith, and it is our Instructor’s purpose to graduate us to a faith that rests. In the story of Jesus calming the storm, we learn how faith has to have an object. This elementary lesson must be learned if our faith is to strengthen to a faith that rests.

The story of the Gadarene demoniac is a remarkable picture of humanity without Christ. Mankind has been plunged into a captivity of darkness and all of man’s attempts to free himself fail. This is a story that finds relevancy today almost 2000 years later as nations, societies, and cultures self-destruct.

The story of the battle of Jericho and Rahab’s deliverance is a picture of the Gospel. In this message, Michael Durham unpacks the symbolism and takes a direct line to the great covenant of God with the Son and the His people.

We know God can do anything within the confines of His nature. However, when it comes to prayer and faith we struggle whether or not if God is willing to do what we ask of Him. The miracle of Jesus healing the leper tells us much about praying in faith. There is also a great illustration of God willingness to save in the leper’s cleansing.

God has commanded parents, and fathers in particularly, to instill into their children the revelation of God and His truth. Unfortunately, many Christian parents have failed to do this, and the children have abandoned the Christian faith altogether. In this message, we look at what the Psalmist said was parental responsibility in very practical way. We must hold the Gospel rope for the future generation.
