God is talking directly to you every single day. But are you getting the messages? Divine Intelligence is constantly communicating through signs from God, synchronicities, intuitive nudges, and powerful moments we often overlook or dismiss. In this episode of Soul Elevation with Kara Goodwin, I share recent, real-life examples of how divine messages show up, and just how easy it is to miss them when we're not tuned in. You'll learn why so many of us miss signs from the universe, how to recognize when God is talking to you, and how to train yourself to better receive divine guidance. If you've been asking how to hear God more clearly or wondering if the universe is speaking to you, this conversation will help you strengthen your connection and trust the messages you're already receiving. This episode is for you if you're on a spiritual awakening journey and want to deepen your ability to receive higher consciousness, energy healing, and cosmic wisdom.

What if the way you encounter God is closer than you think?   In Part 3 of the God Encounters series, we journey with two disciples on the road to Emmaus and discover what happens when Jesus opens the Scriptures to us. They didn't recognize Jesus as He walked beside them, but as He opened God's Word, their understanding changed, their eyes were opened, and their hearts began to burn.   Pastor George reminds us that the Bible isn't just an ancient book—it is living and powerful. Every time we engage with God's Word, we have an opportunity to encounter Jesus, receive revelation, renew our minds, strengthen our faith, and have our hearts reignited with passion for Him.  If you've felt distant from God, lost your passion, or simply want to hear His voice more clearly, this message will encourage you to get back into His Word and let Him speak.   Every fire needs fuel. And the fuel is God's Word.  

In Position | Pastor Simone BenoitWhat if the disruption you're experiencing isn't a setback, but God's way of positioning you for what He wants to do next?In this powerful message, Pastor Simone Benoit teaches us that God is aligning our hearts, minds, desires, decisions, and direction so that we can be in position for His purpose.Through the journey of Joseph, we discover that God doesn't simply prepare a position for us, He prepares us for the position. Sometimes that preparation involves divine adjustments, unexpected transitions, uncomfortable seasons, and places we never planned to be.Joseph's journey took him from his father's house → the pit → Egypt → Potiphar's house → prison → the palace.What looked like setbacks were actually steps in God's positioning.This message reminds us:• God aligns you before He aligns things around you.Before God changes your circumstances, He may first change you.• Divine alignment requires divine adjustment.We cannot ask God to align us with His will while resisting every adjustment He makes in our lives.• Sometimes God has to move you to position you.You may not understand where you are until the moment arrives that requires what God has developed in you.• Don't confuse alignment with comfort.Being in God's will doesn't mean there won't be difficulty. Alignment means having confidence in the One directing you through it.• Alignment requires obedience.Knowing God's Word is not the same as living God's Word. Sometimes we don't need another word—we need to move on the Word God has already given us.Joseph's story ultimately reminds us that God can take what was meant for evil and use it for good. What looks like a detour may actually be divine positioning for a greater purpose.

Hosts Shelly and June Volk delve into the practical spiritual applications of Psalm 22. Examining the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy in the Gospels, the Volks highlight how Messiah’s journey on the cross provides a direct model for believers facing trials today. The discussion centers on three key spiritual disciplines: enduring through perseverance, maintaining a continuous life of prayer, and finding divine comfort and strength through God's Word in times of affliction. Key Takeaways: Transformative Knowledge (Epignosis): True spiritual revelation in Christ goes beyond intellectual agreement; it actively transforms how believers endure life’s struggles. The Discipline of Persistence: Messiah’s endurance on the cross serves as the ultimate example for believers to press forward without losing heart during times of trial. A Life of Unceasing Prayer: Moving from distress to praise, Messiah demonstrates that prayer should be the primary response—rather than a last resort—in the midst of suffering. Purpose in Affliction: Affliction acts as a spiritual refining process, testing faith and deepening a believer’s trust in God's sovereign promises. Comfort in the Word: God's Word quickens and revives believers, supplying hope and endurance when external circumstances are difficult. Scripture & Bible Passages Referenced: Psalm 22:1–31 – Prophetic psalm detailing Messiah's suffering, prayer, endurance, and ultimate victory. Luke 24:44 – All things written in the Law of Moses, Prophets, and Psalms concerning Messiah must be fulfilled. Ephesians 1:16–18 – Prayer for a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge (epignosis) of Him. Galatians 6:9 – "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." James 1:2–4 – Counting trials as joy, knowing that the testing of faith produces patience and completeness. Isaiah 53:4–7 – Messiah bearing our griefs, carried our sorrows, and suffering affliction for our redemption. Psalm 119:50 – "This is my comfort in my affliction, for Your word has given me life."

Discover: • Why Scripture is essential for spiritual growth • How Ezra modeled a life centered on God's Word • The practical SOAP Bible study method • How to renew your mind through Scripture • Why obedience is the key to lasting transformation God's Word doesn't transform us simply because we own a Bible or read a few verses—it transforms us when we trust it enough to obey it.

Are you truly satisfied, or are you just getting by with things that never last? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Psalm 63 in the KJV and shows us what it means to be a passionate believer who finds full and lasting satisfaction in the Lord Jesus Christ.You might be asking: Why should I praise God every day, not just on Sundays? What does it mean that God's lovingkindness is better than life? How do I stop worrying and start trusting God? Can anything in this world truly satisfy me?Pastor Webster walks us through these key truths from God's Word:- God's lovingkindness is better than life itself, and that truth should fuel daily praise- The Apostle Paul tells us in Philippians 4:6 to stop worrying and bring everything to God in prayer with thanksgiving- Praising God in church should flow from a life of praise at home and at work- True and lasting satisfaction is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ, not in money, pleasure, or people- Colossians 3 calls us to set our affection on things above, not on earthly thingsIf you don't yet know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, Pastor Webster extends a warm and urgent invitation to you today.

Growing In God Podcast Program Number: GIG #312 Title: Our Prayer for Our Nations   Web Description: Daniel's prayer for Israel while they were in captivity is not simply a historical story. It is an example for us to follow. Just as Israel ignored the warnings from God that led to Jerusalem's destruction, the nations today are ignoring the abundant warnings in the Scriptures about the destruction set to happen in our day. It is time that we follow Daniel's example of seeking God, asking His forgiveness, and praying for His blessing to be on our nations.   Show Notes: The United States of America has enjoyed tremendous blessings since its founding. And we celebrate those blessings every July 4th. But even more than that, we celebrate the fact that God was involved with our founding. This nation began because people were seeking God and acknowledging Him in its formation. But we must do more than remember what great things God did in the founding of this country. We need to be walking with Him today in such a way that the blessings, the gifts, and the peace that we have experienced in this country will continue.   This applies to all nations; and Christians everywhere need to be seeking God that His covering and blessings will rest on their nations. A great example of this from the Scriptures is Daniel. Daniel was very concerned about his nation, the nation of Israel, and he prayed, "Open shame belongs to us, O Lord, to our kings, our princes and our fathers, because we have sinned against You." When we look at all that is turning our own nation away from God and away from the values that are the source of the blessings we enjoy, we should feel a deep personal shame and seek God as Daniel did.   Daniel walked uprightly before the Lord and had not done any of the things God was judging Israel for. Yet he humbled himself and accepted responsibility along with all Israel for the situation they were in. As Christians we cannot exclude ourselves from responsibility for our country. Let us evaluate our own hearts and minds. Let us lift our own thinking and ways of acting before the Lord for Him to examine. Let us be honest with ourselves about why we are in the circumstances today that are troubling the nations. Those circumstances are God's way to get us to turn to Him. Let us turn to Him with all our hearts and seek Him for His blessings to be restored to us.   Key Verses:   •       Daniel 9:2–12. "Open shame belongs to us … because we have sinned against You." •       Psalm 132:14. "This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it." •       2 Chronicles 7:16. "My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually." •       Daniel 9:16–22. "For Your sake, O Lord, let Your face shine on Your desolate sanctuary."   Quotes:   •       "I wish we as a global community of the Body of Christ would seek God on behalf of all our nations." •       "God so loved the world and He so loved mankind that He's bringing about an opportunity of grace for us to cry out to Him and find deliverance through Him." •       "If we get instruction and answers from God, let us not this time harden our hearts. Let us not at this time close our ears and our minds to what His Word is speaking to us. And let's believe that He brings, in this generation, the insight and the understanding that will, by His grace, bring deliverance to this age."   Takeaways:   1.    We should be those who acknowledge our own responsibility for whatever direction our nation is going and whatever troubles it finds itself in. And we should be seeking God for our nation to return to Him and see His blessings return to us. 2.    Let us not follow the example of those who ignored the warnings, hardened their hearts, and turned away from the prophets and the Word God was speaking. Instead, let us follow Daniel's example of admitting our guilt and seeking God for His grace and forgiveness. 3.    We need to change the atmosphere of anger in this country. The drive to not listen, to not learn, to not love, but rather to hurt one another leads to violence. And violence will beget violence until we find ourselves on the brink of civil war once again.

Psalm 19:7-14 | The Greatness Of God's Word | God's word is beautiful & beneficial, convicting & comforting.

(This podcast was previously published on August 21, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Noah was a righteous man, so when God destroyed this present earth by waters covering the earth, God made a way to save the life of Noah and His generations.   God later raised up another righteous man:  Abram, renamed Abraham by God.   Genesis 12  (God speaks to Abram)   1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:   2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:   3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.   4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him;   Keeping the Word spoken by God before us is the only thing that matters.  As we do that, we follow God.  In the coming Podcasts and writings, we will focus on what God said.

Do you ever feel stuck listening to the “wind” of fear, doubt, and uncertainty instead of standing on the Word God already spoke over your life? This message reminds us that the enemy loves to keep us focused on every possible “what if,” but faith means shifting our attention back to God’s presence and His promises.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Biblical Preparation for Troubled Times: How the Remnant Must Prepare for the Days Ahead | KIB 534 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description The world is becoming increasingly unstable. Economic uncertainty, spiritual deception, cultural collapse, technological control systems, and growing hostility toward biblical truth are creating unprecedented challenges for believers. In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore what Scripture teaches about preparing for troubled times. Rather than promoting fear, they reveal the biblical pattern found throughout God's Word: God warns, God prepares, and God preserves a faithful remnant. Drawing from the lives of Noah, Joseph, Elijah, and the early Church, Dr. Lake examines how believers must prepare spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and practically for the days ahead. This episode also addresses discernment, covenant faithfulness, hearing the voice of God, strengthening the inner man, resisting deception, and learning how to walk in kingdom authority during turbulent times.

Brethren, [with all] my heart's desire and goodwill for [Israel], I long and pray to God that they may be saved. 2 I bear them witness that they have a [certain] zeal and enthusiasm for God, but it is not enlightened and according to [correct and vital] knowledge. 3 For being ignorant of the righteousness that God ascribes [which makes one acceptable to Him in word, thought, and deed] and seeking to establish a righteousness (a means of salvation) of their own, they did not obey or submit themselves to God's righteousness. 4 For Christ is the end of the Law [the limit at which it ceases to be, for the Law leads up to Him Who is the fulfillment of its types, and in Him the purpose which it was designed to accomplish is fulfilled. That is, the purpose of the Law is fulfilled in Him] as the means of righteousness (right relationship to God) for everyone who trusts in and adheres to and relies on Him. 5 For Moses writes that the man who [can] practice the righteousness (perfect conformity to God's will) which is based on the Law [with all its intricate demands] shall live by it. 6 But the righteousness based on faith [imputed by God and bringing right relationship with Him] says, Do not say in your heart, Who will ascend into Heaven? that is, to bring Christ down; 7 Or who will descend into the abyss? that is, to bring Christ up from the dead [as if we could be saved by our own efforts]. 8 But what does it say? The Word (God's message in Christ) is near you, on your lips and in your heart; that is, the Word (the message, the basis and object) of faith which we preach, 9 Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms [his] salvation. 11 The Scripture says, No man who believes in Him [who adheres to, relies on, and trusts in Him] will [ever] be put to shame or be disappointed. 12 [No one] for there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. The same Lord is Lord over all [of us] and He generously bestows His riches upon all who call upon Him [in faith]. 13 For everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord [invoking Him as Lord] will be saved. 14 But how are people to call upon Him Whom they have not believed [in Whom they have no faith, on Whom they have no reliance]? And how are they to believe in Him [adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him] of Whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? 15 And how can men [be expected to] preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring glad tidings! [How welcome is the coming of those who preach the good news of His good things!] 16 But they have not all heeded the Gospel; for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed (had faith in) what he has heard from us? 17 So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself). 18 But I ask, Have they not heard? Indeed they have; [for the Scripture says] Their voice [that of nature bearing God's message] has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the far bounds of the world. 19 Again I ask, Did Israel not understand? [Did the Jews have no warning that the Gospel was to go forth to the Gentiles, to all the earth?] First, there is Moses who says, I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry. 20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown (revealed) Myself to those who did not [consciously] ask for Me. 21 But of Israel he says, All day long I have stretched out My hands to a people unyielding and disobedient and self-willed [to a faultfinding, contrary, and contradicting people].

Brethren, [with all] my heart's desire and goodwill for [Israel], I long and pray to God that they may be saved.2 I bear them witness that they have a [certain] zeal and enthusiasm for God, but it is not enlightened and according to [correct and vital] knowledge.3 For being ignorant of the righteousness that God ascribes [which makes one acceptable to Him in word, thought, and deed] and seeking to establish a righteousness (a means of salvation) of their own, they did not obey or submit themselves to God's righteousness.4 For Christ is the end of the Law [the limit at which it ceases to be, for the Law leads up to Him Who is the fulfillment of its types, and in Him the purpose which it was designed to accomplish is fulfilled.

The same Lord is Lord over all [of us] and He generously bestows His riches upon all who call upon Him [in faith]. 13 For everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord [invoking Him as Lord] will be saved. 14 But how are people to call upon Him Whom they have not believed [in Whom they have no faith, on Whom they have no reliance]? And how are they to believe in Him [adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him] of Whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? 15 And how can men [be expected to] preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring glad tidings! [How welcome is the coming of those who preach the good news of His good things!] 16 But they have not all heeded the Gospel; for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed (had faith in) what he has heard from us? 17 So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself). 18 But I ask, Have they not heard? Indeed they have; [for the Scripture says] Their voice [that of nature bearing God's message] has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the far bounds of the world. 19 Again I ask, Did Israel not understand? [Did the Jews have no warning that the Gospel was to go forth to the Gentiles, to all the earth?] First, there is Moses who says, I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry. 20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown (revealed) Myself to those who did not [consciously] ask for Me. 21 But of Israel he says, All day long I have stretched out My hands to a people unyielding and disobedient and self-willed [to a faultfinding, contrary, and contradicting people].

How Christians Fight Temptation with the Word of God Show: Anchored in the Word with Dave Jenkins Ministry: Servants of Grace Episode: Weekly Q&A Segment Date: 3/12/2026 Show Summary Question: How can Christians fight temptation with the truth of the Word of God? Every believer faces temptation, especially when tired, discouraged, lonely, or distracted. In this episode, Dave Jenkins explains how Scripture equips Christians to resist temptation by exposing lies, renewing the mind, and strengthening obedience. Drawing from Matthew 4:1–11, James 1:13–15, Ephesians 6:17, and 1 Corinthians 10:13, this episode shows why we fight temptation not with mere willpower, but with the Word of God. Audio Player Video Player Key Scriptures Matthew 4:1–11 James 1:13–15 1 Corinthians 10:13 Ephesians 6:17 Genesis 3 Psalm 1:2–3 Psalm 119:11 1 John 1:9 Episode Highlights Temptation is common to every Christian, but how we respond matters. Jesus answered Satan's temptations with Scripture: “It is written.” Scripture is the sword of the Spirit—meant to be used, not left sheathed. Temptation begins by questioning God's goodness and offering shortcuts. God promises a way of escape and grace for believers who struggle. Episode Notes Temptation whispers lies, but Scripture answers with truth. When believers feel weary, discouraged, or isolated, temptation often presses harder. Yet Scripture teaches that temptation is not defeated by emotion or mere willpower, but by trusting and applying God's Word. In Matthew 4:1–11, Jesus resisted every temptation by responding with the truth of Scripture. The same Word that strengthened Christ in the wilderness is the Word God has given to His people today. The Bible is not merely information—it is a weapon in spiritual battle (Ephesians 6:17). Temptation targets desire, offering shortcuts to what God gives rightly, and often begins by questioning the goodness of God (Genesis 3). But Scripture exposes the lie behind temptation, renews the mind, and strengthens obedience. We fight temptation not with self-reliance, but with the Word of God. Practical Ways to Fight Temptation with the Word Know the Word: Familiarity precedes effectiveness. Spend time daily in Scripture: Even 5–10 minutes builds spiritual strength. Meditate on Scripture: Let God's Word shape your desires (Psalm 1:2–3). Memorize Scripture: Especially in areas of weakness (Psalm 119:11). Pray Scripture: Turn God's promises into prayer. Speak Scripture aloud when tempted: Following Jesus' example in Matthew 4. Takeaways & Reflection Questions Where are you most vulnerable to temptation when you're tired, discouraged, or alone? What specific lie does temptation often use against you, and what Scripture answers it? What passage can you begin memorizing this week to strengthen your fight? How can you build a daily rhythm of Scripture intake and meditation? Next Week Next week we'll continue this theme and answer an important question: What should I do if I'm struggling with lust or pornography? If that's where you are, please know you're not alone—and Scripture speaks clearly with real hope.

Welcome to Wellspring Church!As we enter the season of Lent, Pastor Kyle Stanton invites us to see the wilderness not as the destination, but as the path. The goal is deeper communion with God. Looking at Jesus' baptism in Luke 3 and His temptations in the wilderness, we're reminded that before Jesus did anything, He was affirmed by the Father and filled with the Spirit.Jesus faced real temptations—to be self-sufficient, to be spectacular, and to seize power—but He resisted them by resting in the Father's voice. In the same way, Lent becomes a season where our false voices are stripped away so we can hear the one true Word God speaks over us.

God is awakening a fresh hunger in His Church—and it's not optional if you want to be part of what's coming.In this prophetic word for 2026, we share what the Lord spoke clearly: “2026 is the Year of the Word.” This isn't just a theme—it's a divine invitation back to the living voice of God.If you've felt spiritually dry, distracted, or hungry for more, this message will stir your faith and call you back to Scripture, intimacy with Jesus, and boldness in the Holy Spirit.

In this week's message from James 1:19–27, we shift from enduring trials to growing through them. James reminds us that adversity is no excuse for immaturity—and that real spiritual growth happens when we allow God's Word to do its work in us.We'll talk about our natural knee-jerk reactions when we feel provoked or hurt, and how maturity looks different: being quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger. James teaches that unchecked anger doesn't produce the righteousness God desires, and that humility is the posture that helps us receive the Word God has planted in our hearts.But James doesn't stop at hearing—he calls us to action. We'll explore what it means to move from being a listener to becoming a doer, because transformation doesn't come from information alone. Like looking into a mirror, God's Word reveals what needs to change—and blessing comes when we respond with obedience.In this message, we'll explore:✔ Why listening more and speaking less is a mark of maturity✔ How anger can hinder spiritual growth✔ What it means to humbly receive the “implanted Word”✔ The difference between hearing the Word and living it✔ Why obedience is how we “work out” what God is working in✔ How building your life on God's Word creates stability in every stormIf you've felt stuck, reactive, or spiritually stalled, this message will encourage you that growth is possible—because God's Word has the power to change you from the inside out.

A message full of gratitude and thanksgiving as we review all God did in the previous year and look ahead to the WORD God has for us in this new year.When it comes to God and His involvement in our lives, we all have a natural reflex, to worship and be grateful or to be forgetful and take His grace for granted. If we can put ourselves in the story and translate that to our lives, we become grateful and thankful in all things. Let's start 2026 with great gratitude, because there's only one way to start Subscribe to the latest sermons: http://bit.ly/TBCsermons To learn more about The Block Church: http://theblockchurch.org/ Stay Connected Facebook: http://bit.ly/2vOiaLa Instagram: http://bit.ly/2nzZNWB Twitter: http://bit.ly/2KEScPL #theblockchurch #ChurchOnline #Onlinechurch

What if one of the most dangerous spiritual forces operating in our culture is about to be confronted, shaken, and brought down? In this urgent prophetic word, Ryan Johnson reveals what the Lord showed him about exposing and overcoming a taunting spirit — a mocking, intimidating force that has pushed believers into discouragement, retreat, or silence. But God is declaring that its influence ends NOW. This is a moment of divine exposure… a moment when the spirit will lose its grip, and the people of God will rise with renewed boldness and clarity.Across culture, media, government, and digital platforms, this mocking spirit has attempted to challenge God's purposes. Yet 2026 will function as a prophetic “David's Roar” season — a time when the Lord commissions His people to confront Goliaths with supernatural confidence. This message unpacks Ryan's prophetic word for 2026, exploring insights and parallels from scripture, and the deeper Hebrew significance behind the number 26 – all revealing and reinforcing what God is saying for the coming year.You'll discover how the taunting Goliath spirit has targeted identity, authority, and endurance. You'll also learn why the Throne Room teaching (identity, empowerment, formation) must be paired with the Battlefield revelation (activation, confrontation, victory) in this next season. When these realms come into alignment, believers step into prophetic activation, prophetic alignment, and a fresh mantle to confront Goliaths, break intimidation, and advance with Kingdom authority.

Step into the wonder of John 1:1–14. Before there were shepherds, angels, or a manger… there was the Word – God the Son stepping into our world. In this message, we explore the cosmic side of Christmas: why the Creator entered his creation, and what it means that “the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.” If you've ever wanted to see the Christmas story with fresh eyes, or understand why this ancient story still changes lives today, you won't want to miss this message.

In a world of mistrust, God can be trusted. He can be counted upon. He keeps his promises, he fulfills his word, and he does what he says he will do. God is worthy of your trust, your faith, and your confidence.Main Points:1. The Bible teaches us that God is faithful. This means God is always reliable, all of the time.  He does not fail or forget.  He always keeps his word.  His character is consistent and He never changes.2. Think about the implications of this wonderful truth. If God never changes, his love never changes. His grace never changes. His forgiveness never changes. His power and his presence never change. His ability never changes.3. If you are struggling to trust God, be assured of his character. There is no one like God. He does not change. He will be faithful in your life. Today's Scripture Verses:Hebrews 13:8 says, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.”Psalm 119:89-90 - “Forever, O Lord, your word is firmly fixed in the heavens. Your faithfulness endures to all generations.”Malachi 3:6, "I the Lord do not change." James 1:17 - “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
