    based on 5 ratings
     | 62,123 views

    Believers have rich inheritance rights as children of God, but like Esau some have sold their birthrights. Please, Believer, don’t sell your birthright like Esau: don’t sell your priesthood; don’t sell God’s promises; and don’t sell your power over sin.

But along the way sometimes in order to get the blessings we have to be corrected, or we might have to make some adjustments. I feel tonight ...read more

    However, regardless of how bright the light of the Gospel is there are those who are blind to the truth. To them the gospel is hidden. How does such brilliant light become so veiled or hidden that men see not the Light?

    THE HIDDEN GOSPEL 2 CORINTHIANS 4:1-7 Introduction: Paul writing to the Corinthian church speaks of the great and awesome privilege of having been given the ministry of carrying the Gospel to the lost. This ministry of bringing light to darkness was and is a work of God’s Power through His Spirit. ...read more
