Praying For God’s Will – Submitting To God’s Way

We pray for God’s will to be done, and when we find that God’s will is not as we planned or desired, we ...read more

Faith That Works Miracles

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Nov 15, 2021

To receive our miracles, God expects a demonstration of our faith. Even when God appears to be silent, faith doesn’t walk away. Faith catches God at His word. Faith finds reasons to believe when there are reasons to give up.

Caleb, The Wholehearted Dreamer

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 6, 2021

Wholly following the Lord can be boiled down to three words. Trust and obey. Others in the Bible did that, but only Joshua and Caleb are immortalized for it. They are the example to follow. Any of us can wholly follow the Lord. All of us should.
