This illustration shows us how highlighters can be a good study tool. We can highlight God's Word by memorizing scriptures and hiding His Word in our hearts, so we won't sin. His Word gives us a lamp and a light to guide us in the right direction.

This lesson is about how God cares about the little things. He is always there to help us even when we think it's too small for Him. An iron axe head floating is not natural. God stepped in and did the supernatural so the man could return the axe he had borrowed.

Heaven is Near - Philippians 3:20-21 “Our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.” Heaven is Near, we should make sure our faith is in place and we are ready.

We must be prepared as we walk in the way of obedience. How can we grow spiritually? In this service we cover the Biblical way to prepare ourselves spiritually. Settle it in your heart that there will be hardships in serving the Lord. We do not need to look for opportunities to suffer. But as we live obedient to God they will present themselves. Thank you for joining us for our Midweek Bible Study on the Way of Obedience. (Streaming License # CCLI: CSPL043706)

This illustration shows us how easy it is to break a crayon and how being a bully breaks people. However, we are taught to love everyone. Only God's love can heal and mend the hearts of broken people. So always be kind so you aren't breaking people.

The Potter is still working today. Over fifteen times in the Old Testament the term “out of their hands” or “out of the hand” is used and this is very important. If somebody can be taken out of somebody’s hand or they can be delivered out of somebody’s hand according to the scriptures, I want to know why. It matters because of what we read in the Bible regarding the hands of the potter. The scripture says that God had Israel in His hand. In John we read that He’s going to give unto His people eternal life and nobody is going to be able to pluck them out of His hand. There is safety in the hand of God. There’s forgiveness in the hand of God. There is mercy and grace in the hand of God. If we can just stay in the hand of God, everything can be worked out.

It is not a question of whether or not you will fall, the only question is when you will fall? Notice that according to Proverbs 24:16, if you are a just person, you get back up. You’re going to fall, you’re going to mess up, make mistakes, and blow it big time! What you need to know is that your failure is not final!

Trust God. Pray every day. Seek after His guidance and wisdom. The Bible tells us not to trust in our own understanding, but in all of our ways to acknowledge Him and He will bring it to pass. If you will trust God, and allow Him to be your strength you will find out that your failures are not final.

This lesson is about how Naaman was healed of a flesh eating disease called Leprosy. But, not just healed, made whole. Join us for another miracle that God performed.
