Great Sermon! This is a testimony showing that with God by our side we need not fear. Satan had a field day with me as a newly converted Christian. Night after night he terrorized me, threatened me if I did not do what he wanted: immediately get up from sleep for no reason. ‘Get up, get up, if not something bad is going to happen to you. Get up, get up!’ I tried to ignore the threats, fearing most the threats of death, as they were so real and persistent that I never once resisted. Out of fear I dragged myself from sleep, awoke fully and faced a miserable day ahead. Night after night he came at me that way and drained me. Newly in the faith, I had a desire to copy the scriptures as a way of learning them. It was God’s mercy and leading that I started copying from the book of 1 John. When Satan taunted me again on that Battle of Waterloo night, the verse from 1 John 4:4 came to me: “... greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” ‘Is this true? Really true? It must be. It’s in the Bible.’ Backed by this Scripture I called Satan’s bluff: 'I don’t care, I’m not waking up. I’m going back to sleep. Do what you want!’ I turned over, slept without a single care and only recalled my victory the next morning. Hallelujah! The clout of God roundly routed Satan. Praise God! |

Great Sermon! God is God and I am his created being. How can any of his creation describe him? As I grew from a child to an adult, I could describe the attributes of my father and mother and then came to a complete stop. Can I do that with God? Rev Kranendonk has served up a very satisfying meal and it is my privilege to have ingested it, and to make it a recurring meal, such is its banquet appeal. There is no one word over another I could choose to describe God, although I could name a few: incomparable, awesome, infinite, eternal, magnanimous, magnificent, omnipotent, omniscient, merciful, long-suffering and so on. For God no single name or combination of names is enough. On bended knees is my only homage. |
