    Patient Waiting In An Impatient World!

    Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Mar 22, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,141 views

    In an increasingly impatient world it is essential for the believer to continue in prayer and wait patiently on the Lord, in spite of the tendency to the contrary! The world may be in a hurry but God is always on time! Wait on Him!

    Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. Grudge not ...read more

    Sowing In Hard Places

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Aug 6, 2012
    based on 16 ratings
     | 16,345 views

    SOWING BY ITS VERY NATURE IS ABOUT GETTING WHAT YOU WANT TO HAVE, NOT WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. You sow into dirt because you want strawberries. Three principles that show how hard sowing can be: The principle of death; delay; and the principle of deceit.

    Sowing in Hard Places How many of you have heard a preacher somewhere tell you that you want to sow your seed into good soil so that you can receive a good harvest? Makes sense that we should sow our seed into the best soil possible doesn’t it? No farmer in his right mind sows seed into bad soil. ...read more

    We tend to pose a big "why" to God when our prayers are not answered. The problem is not with God, but with us.

He is the same God who remains faithful to His words; He is the same God who answers the prayers of His people today as much as He answered the prayers of the O.T & N.T saints. 2) I heard hundreds of ...read more
