    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 25, 2025
     | 349 views

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 11, 2025
     | 481 views

    God often provides help from unexpected sources and through people we least expect. Divine helpers do not always come as wealthy benefactors or influential figures. Sometimes, they are found in unlikely places—individuals whom society has overlooked, rejected, or considered insignificant.

    DIVINE HELPERS IN UNLIKELY PLACES By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Samuel 22:1-2 "David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.

    Character Study Of Jephthah Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 22, 2025
     | 513 views

    Jephthah was a man of faith and courage, but his story is overshadowed by the tragic consequences of his rash vow. His leadership brought victory to Israel, but his lack of wisdom in speech led to unnecessary sorrow.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF JEPHTHAH – JUDGE WHO MADE A RASH VOW By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text:. Judges 11:30-31 "And Jephthah made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors ...read more
