    The miracle of God’s provision is not something confined to the Bible, although it is clearly seen there, but it is for us today - if we are willing to follow the same path as seen in this lovely account of God’s caring for us in our need.

    THE MIRACULOUS SUPPLY II Kings 4:1 - 7 1 The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the LORD.

     | 1,702 views

    Do you believe in angels? 7 out of 10 Americans do. But what is their purpose? What do they teach us? Hebrews 1 is the most comprehensive discussion about angels in the Bible. They've got a lot to say.

    Do you believe in angels? This question is repeated over and over in one of my favorite movies of all time: “Angels in the Outfield” The word “angel” is used consistently in the Bible. They are consistently spoken of for example: a) At creation they were present as Job said in Job 38: 4, 7 that ...read more

    Christ’s humility reveals heaven’s heart—God stooping in love. When His mind lives in us, pride dies, grace flows, and hearts rise.

It’s as if Paul pulls back the curtain and lets us listen to how God thinks and feels. It’s not thunder or trumpet—it’s the quiet pulse of divine ...read more
