Ark, Anger, And Assurance

David And His Ark Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

There’s only one object, however, from what I can tell, in all the history of the Bible, that God routinely attached his presence to – the Ark of the Covenant.

The Aim of This Series Today, we continue a series designed to show you what happens when God shows up. All of this series is devoted to what theologians call a theophany. A theophany literally means “to show God.” These encounters are called visitations and they are almost always following a ...read more

Ark, Anger, And Acceptance

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 20, 2010

We who are successful want instant gratification, but must know that God’s timing may be different, and that it is important to do something that enables others to succeed. In prayer we learn that we are accepted and so our efforts have meaning.

Success brings with it its own set of problems. If you get used to being successful, you soon expect it, and then if it eludes you, that can be very hard to take. I know that I am speaking this morning to reasonably successful people, by and large. Most of you, when you face a challenge, are able ...read more
