    The intensity of God's power within us often attracts greater challenges. The higher the anointing, the fiercer the conflict. The brighter our destiny, the more severe our adversaries. However, through persistent prayer, we can overcome these afflictions.

In this eye-opening message, we will explore the power of God to turn around our situations, deliver us from affliction, and empower us to overcome our enemies. Affliction may ...read more

    God's people are not promised immunity from trials and troubles. In fact, the Bible hints we may fall many times. Our victory is not that we never fall, but that God gives us grace and power to get up each time, so that in the end we triumph!

    SEVEN TIMES THE RIGHTEOUS RISE UP AGAIN! Prov. 24:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Some people fall at the worst times. Like the high school graduate who fell down the platform stairs just after receiving his diploma (in front of 4,000 people). 2. A waiter in a restaurant told of slipping on a wet ...read more

    People often wonder “why didn’t God help me?” “why didn’t God answer me?” ”Where was God when I needed him?” Often the answer to these questions is that we allowed ourselves to become distracted.
