GODLY SORROW LEADS TO REPENTANCE


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2013-04-26

FROM ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

 

GODLY SORROW LEADS TO REPENTANCE

Mark 6:12, "And they went out, and preached that men should repent."

MARK 6:7-12

"Repent" comes from the Greek word, "metanoeo," and literally means to have another mind. Repentance is a necessary part of salvation. Repentance may include Godly sorrow, but sorrow does not always include repentance.

Repentance is simply a change of mind...

signs bible study


By James J Dougherty, 2013-04-25

Signs bible study

            The purpose of this is to show remarkable things in the bible that God and only God could have done, largely in love, and to show that nothing is ever impossible for Him to do, absolutely nothing at all. In some times these things happens so that His will is done in a given situation. There are many situations like this in the bible, both old and new testaments and I am giving just some of them, concentrating mainly on the Old Testament signs. In the first case it was so the people would stop collaborating and spread out through the Earth. This was the tower of Babel in Genesis

(Genesis 11:1)  Now the whole earth had one language and the same words.

 

(Genesis 11:2)  And as people migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.

 

(Genesis 11:3)  And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for...

THE GOSPEL IS THE POWER OF GOD


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2013-04-25

FROM ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

 

THE GOSPEL IS THE POWER OF GOD

Matthew 9:38, "Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest."

MATTHEW 9:35-38, 13:53-58, MARK 6:1-6

People are born again through the power of the Word of God, not through prayer. Prayer is very important, but it is not a substitute for the Gospel.

Many people petition God for someone to be...

A Prayer for Thursday 25th April


By Joyce Gale, 2013-04-25

Thank you Lord for another day. You are our shepherd who gives us peace in times of trouble. You are our refuge, You gather the lost among the wilderness of life. You keep us calm in worrying times. You are the light that burns in our heart. In Jesus name. Amen.

selfishness and selflessness


By James J Dougherty, 2013-04-24

 

Selfishness and selflessness

 

I am led to do a study and teaching on selfishness and selflessness. Selfishness is doing what is pleasing to really only oneself, doing what is right in one’s on eyes, without any regard or care as to what it might cost or that it may or may not grieve, harm, and hurt other people. Selflessness is the opposite, always putting others first in what they do. Our flesh is wholly selfish and does not care for anyone or anything other than to please its own lusts. The spirit, is totally opposite and puts others first always, no matter what it might cost.

This verse is a good definition of selfishness

(Php 2:21)  For they all seek their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.

 

There has always been selfishness around, since long ago an example of which is in the judges, and this verse appears twice for added emphasis:

Judges 17:6  In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was...

GET RID OF FEAR


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2013-04-24

FROM ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

 

GET RID OF FEAR

Luke 8:50, "But when Jesus heard it, he answered him saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole."

MATTHEW 9:23-31; MARK 5:35-43; LUKE 8:49-56

Jesus told Jairus to "believe only," implying that faith and fear can operate in us at the same time. This is also the reason James tells us not to be double-minded, or to waiver (Jas. 1:5-8). Fear will negate faith. We can have...

Rapture bible study


By James J Dougherty, 2013-04-23

                       

                                                Rapture bible study

            I am led to do a bible study on the rapture, for it is something I strongly believe in, and I want people to recognize it, so they can be ready for it when it comes, which really could be any day at any time now, though only the Heavenly Father knows the exact day and time when it will happen. I want people to be able, by the mercy and grace of God to be found ready to go up in the coming rapture whenever it may occur.

There were two people in the bible who were essentially raptured, that is they were translated by God and never, ever saw death like everyone else did. The first of the two was Enoch. Here is the brief story of Enoch in Genesis chapter 5:

(Genesis 5:18)  When Jared had lived 162 years he fathered Enoch.

 

(Genesis 5:19)  Jared lived after he fathered Enoch 800 years and had other sons and daughters.

MAKING FAITH WORK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2013-04-23

FROM ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

 

MAKING FAITH WORK

Luke 8:46, "And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me."

LUKE 8:43-48

Is it possible that Jesus, who was God manifest in the flesh, and therefore all-knowing, did not actually know who touched Him? Yes! Although Jesus' spiritual man was divine, He took upon Himself a physical body with its limitations. Jesus drew on His divine ability...

wisdom bible study


By James J Dougherty, 2013-04-22

Wisdom- bible study  to show that wisdom  is such an important thing for believers to seek after, for growth and maturity.

Here is the start of Solomon’s wisdom- Solomon had the Lord appear to him by a dream at night asking what he wanted and this exchange happened:

(1 Kings 3:5)  At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, "Ask what I shall give you."

 

(1 Kings 3:6)  And Solomon said, "You have shown great and steadfast love to your servant David my father, because he walked before you in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart toward you. And you have kept for him this great and steadfast love and have given him a son to sit on his throne this day.

 

(1 Kings 3:7)  And now, O LORD my God, you have made your servant king in place of David my father, although I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in.

 

(1 Kings 3:8)  And your servant is in the midst of...

THE LAW OF FAITH


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2013-04-22

FROM ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

 

THE LAW OF FAITH

Luke 8:45, "And Jesus said, 'Who touched me?' When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, 'Master, the multitude throng thee, and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?'"

MATTHEW 9:18-20; MARK 5:21-34; LUKE 8:40-48

The multitudes were thronging Jesus. That is, they were compressing, and crowding in on all sides, so it seems strange that He would ask, "Who touched...
