My Daddy Keeps His Promises Series

Contributed by K. Simms on Jan 6, 2010

How can we allow ourselves to move under the anointing of God and yet not be transformed by His Spirit? The question is not “how can we allow such a devastating and detestable act to occur”; the question goes out “why do we allow it to happen”?

My Daddy Keeps His Promises Exodus 34:29-35 The one thing that church folk often miss in their visitation to the sanctuary on the Sabbath is seeing the presence of God. How do we know this?

Breaking The Isolation
