     | 4,355 views

    Do not allow the enemy to trap you in the “why me?” Just remember who you are.

    If you remember, last week I mentioned that on occasions the believers tend to fall in the enemy’s trap; on occasions, the believer tends to fall in the trap of self pity, which in almost all instances causes them to deviate from God’s path. This was certainly the case with the prophet ...read more

    What does the portrayal of the church being like a golden lampstand say about how God sees His church?

    One of the principles associated with spiritual maturity is that spiritual maturity comes from learning to see things from God’s perspective.
