Preaching the Gospel in Faithful Fellowship
Sermons by Pastor Tim Travis (Page 46)
My best wants to rely on my self and those around me, yet God wants better when He can show the world who He is in impossible situations. Gideon faced a similar lesson in Judges 7:1-8 where God had to teach him to rely upon the power of God to win the victory. What crutch…
No one person can do all that Christ has called the Christian to do on their own. 1 Corinthians 12:8-21 clearly shows us that the body of Christ is made up of many necessary parts, skills, abilities. Without each one of us doing our part, the local church can not succeed, the Christian cannot succeed,…
As a Christian, we might sometimes wonder if it’s all worth it, why bother, why go to church and be faithful in tithing. Yet when Christ asked the disciples this in John 6:67-71, the answer is clear to all of us – Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
Satan wants us to think highly of ourselves, yet God makes it clear that without Him we can do very little. In Judges 6 we see how Gideon had to rely upon the power of God and trust Him, beginning with his relationship with God. What about you friend, how’s your relationship with God today?…
God has called on local Bible believing believers to partner together for a reason – because there’s strength when we come together and partner! In Ecclesiastes 4:91-12 we’re given examples of this strength and the need for Christians to be bound together in Christ. How’s your partnership with Christ and other believers today?
God wants us to remember many things in our lives. While as a country we remember those that have served to give us and defend the freedoms we enjoy, how are you remembering the things of God in your life? In Joshua 4:1-7 we see that they made a monument so that others would ask…
Proverbs 4:14-17 serves as a great reminder of one of the dangers we face int his life – those that don’t have our best interests at heart – evil men. As Christians, we must be wise, we must be on guard – yet at the same time loving and showing Christ – but we cannot…
In John 6:64-71 we see that many of the followers of Christ were only following for gain in this lifetime and when it became clear that Christ was not going to overturn Rome and feed them all the time, they lost interest. What about us today? Are we dedicated to following Christ no matter the…
We all have skills and abilities, but did you know that God wants to take us beyond what you and I can do? God’s ways and plans are so much higher than ours, as we see in Isaiah 55:8-9, if we will but surrender to Him. Friend, if you haven’t begun the journey as a…
Backsliding as a Christian is a constant temptation. Throughout the Bible we see many struggled with it in their lives as well. In Hosea 11:7, God calls us out on our desire to backslide, to draw back from God. Will we instead draw nearer to Him? Will we grow our hunger and thirst for His…
