     | 4,442 views

    Just as Key saw that the darkness is intense before the dawn, that during battle we see enough to know that our freedom is won, and that we are at our best when we claim freedom for others, so also at the empty tomb we learn of our freedom from sin.

     | 9,917 views

    Victory is always preceded by worship. By observing God’s Word and the experiences drawn from his people, we see that this is the major key in victory over our spiritual battles. When all you have is God, you have all you need.

    Opening illustration: A wise Bible teacher once said, “Sooner or later God will bring self-sufficient people to the place where they have no resource but Him – no strength, no answers, nothing but Him. Without God’s help, they are sunk.” He then told of a despairing man who confessed to his ...read more
