    There was great initial acclaim for King Saul. His kingship was dramatically renewed at Gilgal. Now we come abruptly to the end of King Saul’s glory days. As a result of Saul failing the test the dynasty will pass from his family.

    If you have ever been in a situation where you must totally wait on and trust God, then you know how hard that can be. King Saul found himself in one of those situations where he must trust God. This will be a test of his character as king of Israel. He is Israel’s first king ending the period of ...read more

    The Lord gives us remedy for doubts that creep in about His ability to help or His concern to help when we are in a great crisis. God addresses His people, those redeemed by his grace to look away from their crisis (and doubts about Him) and embrace the facts about Him and the Hope they bring.

    The Wilderness Experience can make us feel all alone, under pressure, lost, and even wondering if GOD has abandoned us. But that's not the case. HE leads us in the wilderness, if we would only quiet ourselves amid the distractions and tune in to hear HIS voice.

     | 4,131 views

    We, as Christians, can go astray like sheep. Sin keeps zapping us like an electric fence, but we eventually become numb to it and cross over to enter the dangers of the world. The Shepherd will then react. So, how will He react?

    To begin this evening’s message, I would like to share a verse from the Old Testament. Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” All of us have gone astray from God at some point in our ...read more
