Seizing The Moment Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

In order to walk in victory, we must daily devote ourselves and our time to seeking the Lord and His presence. We must learn to seize every minute and every second, and make the most of it for the Lord while living in the present moment.

When we start claiming new territory for the Lord, as in leading people to faith in Christ, we will more than likely have to fight some spiritual battles; and fighting can be tiresome. Fighting can leave us weary and discouraged wishing the conflict was at an end; wanting to slow down and enjoy ...read more

Three Ridiculous Excuses

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 13, 2022

Overtaken In A Fault

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 21, 2022

Buried Alive

Contributed by Sean Dees on Dec 22, 2020
