    REMINDING BELIEVER WE ARE CALLED TO BE HOLY UNTO THE LORD. GOD EXPECTS EVERY BELIEVER TO SHOW FORTH THE GLORY OF GOD IN OUR WALK WITH HIM; IN PURITY OF HEART.

Prophet Habakkuk gives us an insight to the nature of the God of Heaven. In Habakkuk 1:13 "Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on ...read more
