    Philadelphia didn't seem to be a large church, but the little strength they had was enough for them to overcome with the Lord's help. This church was truly the church of the open door!

    Elisha's servant experiences God's presence, protection, and provision when Elisha prays, 'Open his eyes and let him see.' How might we see as God sees?

    In the midst of the war between Aram and Israel, the King of Israel seems to have an uncanny ability to predict Aram's army movements. This leads the King of Aram to suspect a spy in his camp. However, the truth is that God is speaking to the prophet Elisha, giving him divine knowledge and vision ...read more

He said “When I go to bed, I can’t sleep because I’m afraid of monsters under the bed. I know it’s silly, but I can’t help it.” The pastor said that is easy. Just pray every day, ...read more
