    God has a good purpose for us all and this is why He places leaders in our Nations and the leaders are all supposed to be led by God, so that we can live in peace.

    When I asked the Holy Spirit what He wanted to write on Sermon Central. I was very surprised when He gave me this topic about the leaders in government.

Some are probably thinking “Nadab & Abi-who?” The Hebrews had just been led out of Egypt. They had followed ...read more
