    We “CAN” believe in Christ to help us through the circumstances of our lives but unfortunately not all of us “WILL”. Today we will look at the problem of unbelief through the example of Sait Thomas as we see: 1. THE CAUSE OF HIS UNBELIEF (20:25) 2. T

    Prayer is the final component to the Armor of God. It is the source of power that is necessary to enable us not only to stand but to engage the enemy to ultimate victory in Christ. Prayer directs, equips, and empowers us.

I also picked it because I believe as Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians ...read more
