    God allows things to happen but He always has a purpose.

    Let us remind ourselves what happened in 1 Samuel Chapter 8. The Israelites before the time of King David did not consult with God and they wanted a king. They expressed themselves personally that they wanted to be just like the other nations; they abandoned God and ignored their calling as ...read more

    As Balaam prepared to launch a major spiritual attack against the Israelites, they had no idea they were in grave danger. Yet God saved them; He worked behind the scenes even when they were not aware of it. God's still at work today!

    BEHIND THE SCENES “Then it came about after these things, the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh was furious with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker. So he put them in confinement” Genesis 40:1-3. There was a ...read more

     | 371 views

    Jonah did not perceive God’s heart and thereby failed to rejoice when God’s purposes were accomplished in Nineveh. We as a church must have our hearts beat as one with that of God’s and fulfill His purposes to reach the lost and bring them into God’s Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) In this series we are studying the life of Jonah and comparing it with the church of today, thereby trying to learn some ...read more

Our time is no different than in Samuels young years and in his later years. Thesis: Samuel ...read more
