Investing energy with God in petition and prayer supports an imperative relationship and prepares us to address life's ...read more

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Sep 21, 2022

The Christian life is a walk, it's a run, but never forget... it is a fight, and the warfare is real, and we get tired, but we cannot go to sleep. A sleeping saint is a powerless saint and is no threat to the devil.
