    Not by Might but by My Spirit Zechariah 4:1-9 Let’s begin with the remarkable story of how God’s people — weary from exile yet renewed by hope — rebuilt the house of the Lord. Because of their idolatry, moral corruption, and rejection of God’s prophets, the nation of Judah fell to ...read more

    the battle within

    Intro: a subject that is often over-looked or passed by is the flesh verses the spirit teachings in the Word of God.

    The Filling Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021
     | 4,257 views

In the book, Edwards moves through twelve “uncertain signs” ...read more
