Luke 19:11-27
We have great need to remember that we no longer belong in this world, we are citizens of another Kingdom. We live in an age and a generation where living is all about living for me! My ambitions, my dreams, my desires! We’re so taken up with self and self’s things.
Yet, when we get our hearts right, we’ll get our priorities right; and when we get our priorities right, the fruit of the Master’s basket will once again be full!! It WILL come at cost and it will also come at a loss. Are you ready and willing to pay that price?
1 Kings 13:1-10
As one peruses the pages of the New Testament, there stands on record a clear and visible warning to believers against the dangers of deception. When asked by His disciples, “...what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world” (Mt. 24:3); before ever our Lord made mention of wars and rumours of wars, before ever He spoke of famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places, He first gave warning against the dangers of deception.
In a day of great spiritual deception, we need more now than ever to be vigilant against the smooth infiltration of imposters into the Body of Christ. May this sermon serve as a reminder and a warning for us to take heed.

Ephesians 4:31-32
Relationships matter! How I treat my fellow man has direct bearing upon my personal relationship with God. The two are not mutually exclusive. It’s not just me, God and forget everyone else. Yet surprisingly, this is often how many Christians think. Husbands can verbally abuse their wives and then turn up to the throne of grace like nothing ever happened. Brethren, it doesn’t work like that, how I treat my wife is directly related to how God treats me. Have you not read? “Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered (1 Pt. 3:7). My dear people, this is just one example of many.
This sermon is an exhortation to tenderness of heart; “… be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you (Eph. 4:32).
1 Kings 17:1-5
Suddenly, without announcement or herald, one of the greatest prophets to ever have been born entered into the national arena like a thunder bolt! No record is supplied us of his birth and as to his departure from this world, he was taken up into heaven while still alive! Like Melchisedec coming before him, he was “Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life” (Heb. 7:3). Here before us in 1 Kings 17:1, the prophet Elijah hastily makes his public debut. There’s no time for airs and graces — bypassing the common man, he heads straight for the spiritual White House of Israel for an appointment with the King!! Now you know the rules Elijah, don’t upset the king — yet the prophet of God knows no such rule, that is if he wants to live up to his calling!! When a prophet turned up at the door of the royal palace, he wasn't usually bearing glad tidings of peace!
Join us as we walk through a portrait of the life of this man of God.
