    This atrocity & the seriousness of its repercussions forced Jacob to finally take action with His family & seek God’s intervention. He tells his family to “Cast away the foreign gods you have with you." This focal point is the basis for revival.

    In this message, we will learn about how to remain in the safe place always, by being engraved in the palm of His hands enjoying His care and protection rather than to fall into the hands of the living God receiving His wrath and judgment.

    Today, we are going to talk about the mighty hands of God. In fact, there are approx. 122 Bible references concerning His hands. Most of these passages talk about the hand of God involved in the creation of the world. But one of my favorite verses that talks about His hand is found in Isaiah 49:16 ...read more
