Sermon # 31- Who Is On The Throne? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 4, 2024

When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.
