When a prophet speaks the word of God into the life of a person or persons who have fallen into apostasy through the worship of false gods and have been following the words of false prophets, as ...read more

    We should be willing to take a back seat so that God will lift us up.

    Introduction: It’s only human nature for us to want to sit in the best seat in the house.

Those are the places that have the best view and carry ...read more

    It is the aim of the enemy of our souls and therefore the way of this passing world, to blur the lines. To fade black and darken white until all is gray and diluted and washed out. To render truth a matter of irrelevance and to diminish personal identity until the individual is measured as ...read more
