Paul’s Service, Speech, And Stand

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 1, 2022

A song that a lot of churches used to sing a lot, was, “I shall not be moved.”

The chorus of that song goes like this, “I shall not be, I shall not be moved; I shall not be, I shall not be moved: just like a tree that’s planted by the waters, Lord, I shall not be moved.” But the problem with many of the saints of God singing that song is that they are not like a tree planted ...read more
