Contributed by Ovidiu Radulescu on Jun 11, 2007

What? “Good and bad alike” invited to the palace? The door is wide open and all of them are let inside: can you imagine what happened there, the horrendous stampede? Costly carpets, marble, gold, everything clean and suddenly dirty beggars and hungry peas

When You Really Need God To Show Up

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 5, 2016

The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

The Privilege Of Prayer

Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 9, 2022

Earthly kings & presidents DO NOT ALLOW ACCESS to themselves by average people! How different God is, to seek out the lowest, the least, & the nobodies - though He's the Creator & King of kings. Prayer is a priceless privilege; make sure you use it!
