    It is the design of God that after a great move of God, we should expect a move of Satan. Through the valley and into the wilderness.

    Are You Sick? Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 2, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,136 views

    Jesus tweaks the argument of who is in control just a little bit to introduce the real sickness in mankind - sin. He is in control of that too. Are you willing to give Him control over your total cleansing from evil?

Matthew shows us that Jesus has it—over the seen and unseen universe—but that we as humans are loathe to give up control over our own lives and give it to Him. We saw a couple of notable examples in a Gentile ...read more
