    We need Isaiah’s passion to ask God to come & make a difference now! Sin infects us & brings us down; but thank God for Jesus, who, through his death we can come to God forgiven.

    Isaiah cries out for God to come and visit the earth with such magnificence, such ferocity, that the mountains quake, and absolutely everything recognises exactly who God is. This is revival. He prays for God to come down and impact himself and those around him (God…who acts on behalf of those who ...read more

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 42 – Obtaining Food Could Mean Death; Starvation Caused Oven-Hot Skin; Women Were Raped By Babylon - Lamentations 5:8-11 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2025
     | 112 views

    The survivors of the Babylonian destruction had a terrible time. Even to get food was very risky, and because of starvation, the famine caused the skin to become hot, and earlier on, dry like wood. The army raped the women in all of Judah. We consider that infamy of debased men.

    God is not done writing our stories. We may not have chosen to be in the circumstances we find ourselves in, but if we hang on - if we choose faith and trust - knowing that if it is not good yet, it’s because God is not done yet, then one day we will see our lives from His vantage point.
