    HE HAS DONE ALL THINGS WELL. Mark 7:31-37. Jesus was heading towards the Sea of Galilee (Mark 7:31).

    A QUESTION OF PRIORITIES. Matthew 6:24-34. MATTHEW 6:24. We must choose between “God” and “Mammon.” It is all a question of priorities.

    The Word of God is good seed (Luke 8:11): of that there is no doubt. So why is it that it does not have a good result in the lives of all those who hear it? The fault is in the soil.
