    God in His providence provided the help Paul would need, through his nephew, the centurion and the commander. God protected Paul with 470 soldiers against the 40 men who wanted to kill him. God is in control of our trials.

     | 8,640 views

    Proverbs states, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Bill Hybels, in his book Courageous Leadership, tells us, “When a leader is casting a vision publicly the goal is to help people know, understand, and remember the ‘main thing’.”(1) Purpose is all about keeping ...read more

    There are many people whose words are sharp and deadly like arrows. These words when hurled at us cause deep pain, but the psalmist encourages us to not be in dread of these deadly arrows that are directed towards us.
