     | 15,444 views

    A short lesson on the importance of a Christian woman to have the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.

    Today, I want us to consider something “precious in the sight of God.” God created the Universe. All things belong to Him. He sees all things before Him.

May the life and ministry of Paul be an encouragement for all of us who are serving you today. Bless us ...read more

    "watchful Living In A World Of Wheat And Tares" By Pastor Joseph Ondu

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Oct 6, 2024
     | 1,004 views

    This brings us to a crucial point: “while everyone was sleeping.” The enemy sowed the tares while the people were unaware. This suggests a lack of vigilance, a spiritual sleepiness. How often do we let our guard down?
