    From the chaos before Creation through the chaos of today’s world, GOD is in control

    Sometimes it seems like we’re on a run away rollercoaster, in times like these we need to be reminded that (God is still in Control).

    I want to start this message by prophesying to somebody: God is in control, it doesn’t matter what is happening in the economy, and it doesn’t matter what is happening on a political level, or whose in the white house.

    I must admit that at the moment I write this, my faith in God's sovereignty is being tested so severely, I struggle to finish the first paragraph.* I wish I could say the great truth of God's sovereignty was a bedrock of my life - but I confess to have great trouble accepting it - much less ...read more
