Timothy…what It Will Take For God To Use You!

Are You Trusting In God

Contributed by Nancy Peren on Jun 25, 2022

When we start to become dependent on man, we are no longer dependent on God.

The base text for this message is in Jeremiah 17:5-10. When we start to become dependent on man, we become less dependent on God. In fact, we eventually become far away from His presence. We no longer have a firm foundation. So then when man fails us and deceives us, we are alone. We have ...read more

Both are generally the richest and most complex characters, and they get to have all the fun. I guess it's those ...read more
