Prophecy Against Zidon, Ezek 28:20-26
Ezek 28:20-26 is a prophecy against Zidon, much like the prophecies against the Ammonites, Mood and Seir, Edom, and the Philistines in Ezek 25. In v.21 the Lord told Ezekiel to set his face against Zidon and prophesy. The Lord’s promise to glorify and sanctify his name In v.22 The Lord said to Zidon, “I […]
Put On The Armor, Eph 6:11
In Eph 6:11 Paul wrote, “Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil”. When you read this verse, you envision a soldier arming himself for a fight. You might imagine yourself putting on a helmet or a breastplate that wasn’t there the minute […]
Everyone Was Responsible, 1 Chr 22:19
In 1 Chr 22-27, when David prepared for the construction of the house of God, he organized everything and everyone in his kingdom for Solomon to begin to build and rule. Everyone was responsible.

Virtue, Lk 6:19
In this sermon we’re going to discuss virtue. Virtue is strength. It is that quality of physical bodies, by which they produce effects on other bodies. In a literal sense you can speak of the virtue of plants in medicine. So, in Lk 6:19, Jesus said virtue had gone out of him. He had […]
King of Tyrus, Ezek 28:11-19
In Ezek 28:11-19, the Lord addresses Satan in the king of Tyrus, in the same way that Jesus addressed Satan in Peter in Matt 16:23. What God says to the devil in this lamentation against the king of Tyrus begins with the devil’s creation. The Devil Before His Fall When the devil was created, he […]
Giving Him Thanks, Lk 17:11-19
From Lk 17:11-19 we learn some important things about giving the Lord thanks. When the ten lepers were healed and only the Samaritan turned back to give him thanks, we see that thanks is more rare than it is common. In v.17 only one of the ten thanked him. Thanks is often given from those […]

Too Poor To Count, Lk 21:1-4
This message should encourage you if you think you are too poor to count. Some people would probably attempt to do more for God if they thought that what they can contribute to the work of God would make a difference. But they don’t try because they think their contribution won’t count. Well, God doesn’t […]
