The Strength In Following God's Path SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 8, 2023

God Is Our Refuge And Strength

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 20, 2016

When we take time to praise God, fear, doubt and frustration fade. Praising God doesn’t mean that our problems aren’t serious or that our problems won’t go away, but praising God forces us to lift our eyes to God.

How did you feel? How did you react? There are different ways to react. Some say God is dead. ...read more
