    Developing a Spirit of Expectancy is very important in the life of a Believer but there are certain roadblocks along the way. I have chosen to address the roadblocks of inner vows, bitter roots and unforgiveness.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,008 views

I'm not going to tell you what it is just yet, but I want you to keep it in mind as we go through our ...read more
