There'll never be a better time. “If the Lord be God, follow Him: but if Baal, then follow him.” - 1 Kings 18:21 (KJV)

Will you be ready to stand at the judgment seat of Christ? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens 2 Corinthians 5:10 (KJV) and takes us deeper into what it truly means to be an ambassador for Christ — and what awaits every born again believer at the bema seat.You might be asking — Is the judgment seat a place of punishment? Will my sins be brought up before God? What exactly am I being held accountable for as a Christian? What does it mean to give God an account of my life?Pastor Webster answers these questions with care and Scripture, drawing from Psalms 103:12, Micah 7:19, Isaiah 38:17, Hebrews 8:12, and 1 John 1:7 (KJV) to show that your sins are already forgiven and removed. The bema seat is not a place of condemnation — it is a reward seat.Key points from this devotion:- The judgment seat of Christ is a reward seat, not a place of punishment- Your eternal destiny is settled before you leave this life- God's Word confirms your sins have been removed — east from west, cast into the sea, behind His back- As His ambassador, you will give account for how faithfully you represented Him- The question of what we are accountable for will be answered in the next devotionLike, comment, share, and subscribe so you never miss a Word From The Word.#WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:

THE CONSEQUENCE OF COMPROMISE - 1 - James 4:4 - The Enemy Of GodCompromising with the world leads to spiritual enmity with God. As believers, our primary responsibility is to remain spiritually awake, watch, and actively prepare ourselves for the return of Jesus Christ (the Bridegroom). Every action and thought carries consequences, and true readiness requires setting our affections on things above, keeping God's commandments, and refusing to conform to the darkness of this world.https://godly.tv/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa0NAl8n9-Iuq7gO2LHFZSg/featuredArchive of preaching videos on YouTubehttps://www.facebook.com/LinkedWithGodLive stream every Sundayhttps://tttpodcast.lifeAudio recordings of sermons free to listen and downloadhttps://livingbreadoflife.wordpress.comA daily blog of KJV Bible verseshttps://live365.com/station/That-s-The-Truth--a70520Internet radio station with non-stop around the clock preachingFor more of That's The Truth! :https://godly.tv/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa0NAl8n9-Iuq7gO2LHFZSg/featuredArchive of preaching videos on YouTubehttps://www.facebook.com/LinkedWithGodLive stream every Sundayhttps://tttpodcast.lifeAudio recordings of sermons free to listen and downloadhttps://livingbreadoflife.wordpress.comA daily blog of KJV Bible verseshttps://live365.com/station/That-s-The-Truth--a70520Internet radio station with non-stop around the clock preaching

For faith to work in your life (so you can receive all God's promises), action is required. Having faith in your heart is useless until action is applied.

Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it. (Amo 8:11-12 KJV)

Most Christians know that we need faith. But what exactly is faith, what can we do with it, and how do we get it? Let's address these questions so you can receive the things you are believing God for. __________ Hebrews 11:1 KJV, Romans 10:17 KJV, Mark 4:12 KJV, Mark 4:23 KJV, Mark 11:22–24 KJV, Hebrews 11:6 KJV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________    

THE LEAD CAR#NightLight#RTTBROS Deuteronomy 31:8 KJV[8] And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.I've always hated being the first one in the convoy. Whether it's a family road trip or a group of friends heading to a new spot, the person in the lead car has all the pressure. They're the ones who have to spot the potholes, navigate the confusing detour, and figure out if that "shortcut" is actually a dirt road to nowhere. The rest of us just follow the taillights. We're relaxed because someone else is doing the scouting.That's exactly how I've started looking at my mornings. I wake up facing a day full of emails, conflicts I'm not ready for, and a schedule that feels like a landslide. I feel like I'm the lead car.But then I hit this:"And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed." Deuteronomy 31:8Here is the truth: you aren't the lead car. You aren't the one scouting the road. God has already been to tomorrow. He's already seen the potholes. He's already navigated the detour. He isn't just walking beside you; He's gone ahead to make sure the way is open.Tonight, you can stop trying to map out every "what if" for tomorrow. You don't have to be the scout. Just follow the Light.He's already there.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Is your love for God steady no matter what circumstances you are facing? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens 2 Thessalonians 3:5 (KJV) to show us that to truly please God, our love for Him must be steadfast — not just when things are going well, but through every season of life.You might be asking: Why does my love for God seem to cool off when life gets hard? Does God really care about my giving when I barely have enough? How can I be a genuine blessing to the people around me? What does it even mean to love God with a steady, unwavering heart?In this devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster walks through key truths to help you stay grounded:- Steadfast love means loving God regardless of your circumstances, not just when blessings are flowing- You cannot love without giving — your giving reflects the condition of your heart- Sacrificial gifts, however small, are a sweet-smelling offering well pleasing to God (Philippians 4:18)- God desires the knowledge of Him more than outward religious activity (Hosea 6:6)- You are an ambassador of heaven — your life is meant to be a channel of blessing to othersIf this devotion blessed you, like, comment, and share it with someone who needs encouragement today.

To be successful at what God has called you to do, you have to be willing to go all in. Going all in means that you're willing to invest what's necessary in terms of time, resources, and creativity, without holding anything back just. Going all in means fully trusting God, that if He's called you to do this, He's going to help you succeed because you're putting your trust in Him.

There's power to transform a life. “The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword.” - Hebrews 4:12 (KJV)

Too often, we give in to the flesh and lose sight of our purpose, our blessings, and God's plan for our lives.

Good morning, my talk today is very rough, not very uplifting. But I suppose it needs to be said, thank you.

Matthew 17:1–5 (KJV) 1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. 4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

Are you truly using your time and talents for God? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens from Romans 12:1 and Hebrews 13:15-16 (KJV) to challenge every believer to examine how they are living as God's ambassador — and what sacrifices they are actually making for His glory.You might be asking: Why does doing the right thing cost so much? What does it really mean to offer a sacrifice of praise? Am I giving God enough of my time? How do I know if my talents are being used for Him?Key points from this devotion:- A living sacrifice means giving up what you could keep for a greater cause- Doing the right thing is often unpopular, but God calls us to do it anyway- Praise is an act of worship, but only when it comes from a heart that truly belongs to God- Communicating to the needs of others is itself a sacrifice that pleases God- Time and talent are gifts from God — He deserves them backIf this devotion spoke to your heart, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs it, and subscribe so you never miss a word.#WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:

Are you in constant contact with your King as His ambassador? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster continues our study in 2 Corinthians chapter 5, exploring what it truly means to be an ambassador for Christ. Using the KJV throughout, Pastor Webster draws from Jeremiah 33:3, Hebrews 4:16, 1 John 5:14, Philippians 4:6-7, and Ephesians 6:19-20 to show us that representing the King of Heaven requires an open, daily line of communication with Him.You might be asking:- How do I really stay connected to God as His representative?- Does God actually hear my prayers?- What does it mean to pray according to His will?- Can I be faithful even when things are hard?Key points from this devotion:- An ambassador must stay in constant contact with the one who sent them- Prayer is our direct hotline to the throne of Heaven- God hears us when we pray according to His will, not just our own desires- Faithfulness, not success, is what God requires of His stewards- Even Paul prayed boldly from prison — dependability defines a true ambassadorIf this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone who needs it today, and subscribe so you never miss a word.#WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:

On today's episode, James and the Giant Preacher dig into the Septuagint, the Masoretic Text, and why YouTube “gotcha” variants don't sink the Word — including Isaiah's virgin, the Apocrypha (yes, the 1611 KJV had it), Maccabees, and why Jerome already ranked those books below salvation essentials. Jimmy Williams walks Wes Huff–level text history, Gnostic gospels, the Council of Nicaea, and the modern New Apostolic Reformation, then the crew ties it to the high places in Kings, mega vs. little churches, prosperity cults, and the free-will / predestination antinomy. Glenn lands on Trinity-as-chair and fear as a red flag; Jimmy closes with coffee that “doesn't show up on the blood work” if you're actually walking as a disciple. Don't miss it!

Growing In God Podcast Program Number: GIG #318 Title: The Day of Trumpets – Yom Teruah   Web Description: The Day of Trumpets is a day appointed for the sounding of trumpets. And it is important to understand its significance to the time in which we live. The Hebrew word for blowing trumpets is teruah, which can mean to sound an alarm. And that is what we need right now. We need an alarm clock to wake us up from our dullness, our lack of awareness, and our passivity. We must wake up and be alert to hear what the Lord is speaking to us for the coming year.   Show Notes: When enacting the Day of Trumpets, the Lord spoke to Moses, "You shall have … a reminder by blowing of trumpets." And in Hebrew, "blowing of trumpets" is teruah. By understanding the meanings of the word teruah, we can understand how the Day of Trumpets is not just a historical observance that involved people blowing into physical trumpets or rams' horns. It is a specific time that God appointed to meet His people and is very applicable to us today.   Teruah can be a signal to announce an important day or the arrival of a king. Teruah can be a shout, making a noise before the Lord. It can be praise and worship of the Lord. It can be an alarm to alert people to attack or to be alert in battle. These are all ways we can celebrate the Day of Trumpets. We can shout to remind the Lord of His promises; we can announce the fulfillment of His Kingdom; we can praise and worship Him; we can sound the alarm in spiritual warfare.   This year especially, our teruah needs to be an alarm like an alarm clock next to our bed to wake us up. We need to wake up to what is happening around us. We need to wake up to the day we are living in. We need to wake up and take account of our own personal walk with the Lord and make sure that we are doing what He is directing us to do. We need to be aware of the battle in these last days and cry out before the Lord that He remember us and fulfill His Word over His people.   Key Verses:   •       Leviticus 23:24–25. "You shall have a rest, a reminder by blowing of trumpets." •       Isaiah 55:6–7. "Seek the LORD while He may be found."    Numbers 29:1. "It will be to you a day for blowing trumpets [teruah]." •       Leviticus 25:9. "On the day of atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land." •       Jeremiah 4:19. "You have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war." •       Amos 2:2. "Moab will die amid tumult, with war cries and the sound of a trumpet." •       Psalms 150:3. "Praise Him with trumpet sound; praise Him with harp and lyre." •       Numbers 10:8–10. "The priestly sons of Aaron, moreover, shall blow the trumpets." •       Psalm 100:1 (KJV). "Make a joyful noise unto the LORD." •       Luke 21:28. "When these things begin to take place, straighten up and lift up your heads." •       Isaiah 55:11. "My word … will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire." •       Romans 13:10–14. "It is already the hour for you to awaken from sleep." •       Ephesians 5:14–19. "Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead." •       Isaiah 52:1–11. "Awake, awake, clothe yourself in your strength, O Zion." •       Isaiah 60:1–5. "Lift up your eyes round about and see." Isaiah 51:17, 22–23. "Rouse yourself! Rouse yourself! Arise, O Jerusalem."     Quotes:   •       "This is a day of reminder. Lord, we remind You of the promises. We remind You of the prophecies that You've spoken. We remind You about Your Kingdom." •       "It's time for us to take stock of how we are walking. We wake up, lay aside the deeds of darkness, put aside our walk with God from yesterday, and put on the armor of light." •       "He will remember His people, He will remember His Word, and He will come down to fulfill it. He will comfort His people, and He will redeem Jerusalem. All that He has spoken will be fulfilled."   Takeaways:   1.    The Hebrew word teruah, translated as "blowing of trumpets," can mean shouting unto the Lord. It can mean sounding an alarm. It can mean announcing the warning of battle that is coming. It can mean praising God and making a joyful noise unto the Lord. 2.    The Day of Trumpets will be a day of crying to the Lord, waking up in our walk with God, purifying ourselves, coming into a righteousness before God, and God responding and remembering us, and remembering His Word and fulfilling it. 3.    The alarm is being sounded just like it goes off in the morning next to your bed and shocks you out of your sleep. God wants us to be awake now. The time for sleeping is over. He wants us to get right with Him as we wait on Him, cry out to Him, and live in His Word, believing for the fulfillment of all that He has spoken.

Do you really know who you are in Christ? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens up 2 Corinthians 5:20 and Ephesians 6:20 (KJV) to remind every born again believer of something powerful — you are not just a Christian, you are an ambassador for Christ.You might be asking: What does it actually mean to be an ambassador for Christ? Does my everyday life reflect that calling? How do I represent heaven in a world that feels so foreign to faith? Am I living above the level that God has called me to?In this devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster walks through what it truly means to carry that title and live it out:- An ambassador is chosen — you did not choose yourself, God chose you- An ambassador must be a citizen — new birth in Christ grants you heavenly citizenship- An ambassador must be above reproach — blameless, genuine, not a fake- An ambassador must be selfless — crucifying self daily so Christ can live through youThis is a message that will shift how you see yourself and how you carry yourself through the day.

In Luke 14:16-24, Jesus tells the parable of the great supper. A man prepares a great feast and sends out invitations, but when everything is ready, those who were invited begin making excuses. But notice what happens next. In verse 21, the master becomes angry and tells his servant to go into the streets and bring in the poor, the maimed, the halt, and the blind. Then, in verse 23, the command becomes even more urgent: “Compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” And then comes the sobering warning of verse 24: “For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.” This isn't simply a story about a dinner invitation. Jesus is revealing the seriousness of God's invitation—and the danger of treating that invitation casually. God's invitation is gracious. It is extended. The door is open. But there comes a point when excuses have consequences. Today, we're going to look closely at verses 21, 23, and 24 and ask ourselves an important question: What are we doing with the invitation God has given us?

Good morning! It's a great day in Christ Jesus, the Saviour of the world. Amen. Here is

It's easy to criticize. “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” - Matthew 6:21 (KJV)

Are you living like an ambassador for Christ? In today's Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster draws from 2 Corinthians 5:20 (KJV) to remind us of who we truly are as believers — ambassadors for Christ, appointed by heaven to represent our King in a foreign land.You might be asking — what does it really mean to be an ambassador? Can God actually use someone like me to represent Him? And if Christ is representing me in heaven, what does that mean for how I live here on earth?Key points from today's devotion:- An ambassador represents the highest authority of their home country in a foreign land — and as believers, we represent Christ in this world- Christ is in heaven right now appearing in the presence of God for us (Hebrews 9:24), while we serve as His representatives on earth- The love of Christ compels us — we no longer live for ourselves but for Him who died and rose again (2 Corinthians 5:14-15)- A faithful ambassador is health (Proverbs 13:17) — our witness carries weight and responsibility- If you are a child of God, your identity is settled: you are an ambassador for ChristIf this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, and share it with someone who needs a reminder of who they are in Christ.

Will you stand like Daniel and let God make you 10 times better? In this Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster draws from Daniel chapter 1 verses 17 through 21 (KJV) to show us the kind of God Daniel served — a God who gives knowledge, grants favor, sustains through a lifetime of faithfulness, and honors those who honor Him.You might be asking: Can God really make a difference in my career, my relationships, my future? What does it mean to purpose in your heart to serve God? Is it possible to stay faithful when everything around me is uncertain? How do I trust God when the road gets rough?Key points from this devotion:- God gave Daniel knowledge, skill, and favor — and He will do the same for you- 1 Samuel 2:30 reminds us that God honors those who honor Him- Daniel was faithful for over 70 years — consistency matters to God- God is looking for young men and women willing to stand like Daniel- Whatever you need — provision, a spouse, a career — stay with GodIf this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, and share it with someone who needs to hear it today.

The book of 1 Thessalonians deals with a major theme: the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Each chapter ends with an aspect of the Lord's return and, in this five-part series, discusses how we should all be living in the constant expectation of the imminent return of the Lord. In today's teaching, Pastor Gary expounds on 1 Thessalonians 1:10 and how we will be “delivered . . . from the wrath to come” (KJV).

Jesus taught us three keys to receiving answers to our prayers. First, we need to **ask**, which means we need to be specific about what we are requesting from God. Second, we need to **seek**, which means we need to actively look for the answers. God is not going to simply drop the answer from heaven. The answers are here on earth, so we have to look for them with the help of the Holy Spirit. Third, we have to **knock**. Jesus said that when we knock, the door will be opened. This means we must be persistent, continuing to ask, seek, and knock until we receive the answer to our prayers. __________ Matthew 7:7–8 KJV, Matthew 7:7–8 NLT, Romans 8:31–32 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________    

You have a great opportunity. “...five talents, to another two, and to another one.” - Matthew 25:15 (KJV)

Prayer is making a request of God for something you want. However, many believers are fearful of asking God for what they really, really want. A lot of the time, they speak in generalities. They'll say something like, "God, bless me," but what they really want is for God to bless them with a certain kind of job or career. Jesus teaches that we have to be precise about what we want from God and not be ashamed to ask Him for what we truly desire. When we ask God for what we want and believe, we shall receive it. So, let us normalize being bold and not shrink back from asking God for what we really, really want for the sake of appearing humble. __________ Matthew 7:7–8 KJV, James 4:1–2 NLT, Mark 11:24 NLT, Mark 10:51–52 NLT, Matthew 20:29–34 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________    

We hear a lot of people telling us that we need to pray every day, but why do we actually need to pray every day? Well, prayer is a request of God, and Jesus taught us that in order to get our prayers answered, we have to be persistent in our prayers. This means that we need to keep praying for the same thing until we actually see the results. __________ Matthew 7:7–8 KJV, Luke 11:5–8 NLT, Matthew 26:44 NLT, Luke 18:1–7 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________    

When you lose something, you have to seek it in order to find it. In the same way, when you ask God for an answer or solution to your situation, you have to actively look for the solution He has for you. Seeking is not a lack of faith; it is part of the faith process. Faith is not simply waiting for God to place the answer in your lap. Faith requires you to get up and seek the solution God has for you. __________ Matthew 7:7–8 KJV, Acts 17:27 NLT, Jeremiah 29:13–14 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________

Note: Much of the content in this podcast can be found in show participant Ross Anderson's book Understanding the Book of MormonThe Book of Mormon claims to be an ancient scripture that tells the story of God's people in the American continent. It was engraved on gold plates and translated by Joseph Smith through the “gift and power of God.” In fact, Smith claimed that “the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book” (History of the Church, 4:461). LDS missionaries seek converts by urging them to read BoM and pray about its divine authenticity.Anachronism Anachronism = events or objects that appear out of the proper time period in which one would expect themSynagoguesAlma 16:13 = Nephite evangelists preached repentance in synagogues, “which were built after the manner of the Jews”Nephites were descended from Jews → were Jewish (according to story)But synagogues were not developed in Judaism until 400 years after Nephites left JerusalemHow could the writer have know HOW the Jews built their synagogues?Plants / AnimalsMosiah 9:9 “And we began to till the ground, yea, even with all manner of seeds: with seeds of corn and of wheat and of barley.”Wheat and barley were brought to America by EuropeansSheep / goats / cattle / swine → introduced to America by EuropeansEconomy → use of money (coinage) vs. barter18th Century IdeasSince its publication, observers have noted that BoM contains many parallels to 19th c.

Let your stomach be a balloon inflate,  deflate. Scripture for Meditation 2 Corinthians 12:14-16 KJV 14 Now I am ready to come to you this third time. And I will not be a burden, for I want not what is yours, but you. Children ought not to save for their parents, but parents for their children. 15 I will most gladly spend and be utterly spent for your sakes. If I love you more, am I to be loved less? 16 But granted that I myself did not burden you, yet I was crafty and got the better of you by deceit. 14 Look, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you, because I do not want your possessions, but you. For children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children. 15 Now I will most gladly spend and be spent for your lives! If I love you more, am I to be loved less? 16 But be that as it may, I have not burdened you. Yet because I was a crafty person, I took you in by deceit! Reflection on Scripture: I was counseling with a person one time and they felt devalued by their spouse and they were talking about prioritizing themselves more. I have heard this repeated often. In that moment, I felt an internal conflict, or perhaps better said I felt the weight of the balance that Paul presents in these previous verses regarding his equality with other apostles. On the one hand he is no less valuable, and on the other, he is equally a fallen person.  So one side is that we need to learn to not hate ourselves because that is a lie from the enemy, yet the solution to that is not to focus more on ourselves that is an influence from our unhealthy culture. Jesus taught us to love and serve others. He also told us to love others as ourselves. Other people are no more important but no less important than you are. I don't think in general the world has a shortage of people thinking about themselves. Learning to focus more on ourselves is often not the way to resolve these feelings. If we are willing to serve God would that also not be serving God's children.  I think the solution to feeling devalued is to truly understand the value God places in us and now that we feel His love, that we look to Jesus for what he wants us to do with this stronger feeling of value and love. As two examples, consider a situation in which both people in a marriage feel as though they are not being focused on and loved enough. It is possible for both people to feel devalued at the same time. The solution to this problem would not be for both partners to focus on themselves more, but to learn how to receive unconditional love from God. Once fed by the love of God we can help to more clearly connect with another person and appropriately negotiate with our spouse on how to feel more loved from them. This is a profound oversimplification but consider it a metaphor.  Another example is for people who struggle with social anxiety, if we transition to helping other people feel at ease in social settings it can actually lower our anxiety more than trying to put ourselves at ease. Again both of these are oversimplifications but they are examples. So take Pauls statement here about how he remains dedicated to the Church and try and discern how God wants you to balance your dedication?  Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials.

The Bible gives us some interesting instructions. It tells us to meditate on the written word so we can discover God's will for our life. But how does meditating on scripture give us "now" instructions to have success in our calling? Let's dig into this concept. __________ Romans 12:1-2 KJV, John 16:13 KJV, John 14:17 KJV, 1 Thessalonians 5:23 KJV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________
