    When we stand before God to give an account of our life on earth, He won’t ask how many fences we made, but how many bridges we built.

     | 19,232 views

    The new thing God promised to do in showing a way out of the spiritual wilderness and deserts people find themselves in

    God will make a way when there seems to be no way! Sometimes we feel trapped in a situation with no easy or good solutions out of it. This is when we must depend on God and claim the truth of this promise. This truth is given scriptural base in Isaiah 43:18, 19. Please stand in honor of the reading ...read more

    Why Pray?

    Contributed by Gregory Lilly on Jan 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,614 views

    So many people do not use one of the greatest resource that the believer has, and that is prayer. Do you think of prayer as something to use only in an emergency? Do you believe you have a better hold on your life than God could? Do you want any thing out

    James 4:1-3 Intro: Prayer, which allows the believer to communicate with God each day and at any time, is one of the most neglected resources we have in God. The average believer oftentimes considers prayer the last resort, only used when life gets out of hand. In this ...read more

In order to bring that fresh watermelon to you, the farmer or grower would have to do some digging (pun intended) to find out the perfect ...read more
