Got Problems?

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Apr 20, 2023

Promises cause problems, which God uses to give provision. God gave Israel and you three options: surrender to the crisis, fight the undefeatable foe, or trust in God to deliver you from the enemies that present themselves, and to wipe them out.

Promises cause problems, which God uses to give provision. Consider Moses and the children of Israel fleeing from Pharaoh and brutal slavery. They had been delivered from 400 years of slavery by ten plagues that crushed Egypt, the most powerful nation on the face of the earth at that time. They ...read more

Contributed by William Meakin on May 23, 2023

Lifts, or elevators as they are often referred to, are defined as a platform or compartment housed in a specifically designed shaft for raising and lowering people or things to different levels.

Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Oct 13, 2020

2020 has been a year of an unusual number of hurricanes, many have hit the USA. When a storm hits, lives are changed. We like to believe we will 'get over it' or 'get on with it', but storms have an impact, whether it is a weather type of storm OR a personal storm.

On the one hand, some were getting on TV speaking of how God could have nothing to do with events like this, at the same time, others came ...read more
