    Nebuchadnezzar's Testimony Meeting

    Contributed by David Wilson on Sep 16, 2015
     | 6,888 views

    Nebuchadnezzar has a powerful encounter with God and responds with praise! One of the reasons our testimony meetings in churches are so blah is because our people are not encountering God as they should be!

    Nebuchadnezzar’s Testimony Daniel 4 GOD IS IN CHARGE AND HOLDS AUTHORITY OVER ALL! When we speak of the sovereignty of God we should be humbled—remembering that He is in charge and we are not. Speaking of the sovereignty of God can bring great confusion, for if God is really in charge ...read more

    Why The Wilderness

    Contributed by John A. Peck on Nov 3, 2009

     | 7,944 views

    Often the wilderness is a dangerous place, frought with danger, anxiety, vulnerability. Out there, we are usually the prey or the victim, but it is also the place where we encounter God.

    Why are we meeting God in the wilderness (where else?) We are, generally speaking, city dwellers. We live in cities, towns and villages, but for the most part we stay out of the wilderness unless there is something there for us. But in the Bible, a lot of important things happen in the ...read more
