This is a promise that satisfies and fulfills the desires of the heart. This promise is so much better than today’s “do-whatever-makes-you-happy” culture. The more people focus on happiness; the more they are led astray by the substitutes and shortcu...

In the fifth and final message of this series, the focus is on the life of Ananias and the role he played in Saul’s testimony. Once again, the Lord spoke in a vision, and Ananias replied, “Here I am, Lord.” Ananias said, “Yes, I’m ready to serve,” but he didn’t know God was asking him to heal the one who was “breathing threats and murder against the disciples.” Needless to say, that’s an uncomfort...

In this message, one will learn how to hear and steward the Word of God without co...

However, God never forgets His purpose for us or quits pursuing us.  Most people frequently ask, what is God’s will for my life? Everyone wants to know God’s purpose for his or her life; yet most people don’t k...
