Hello Everyone,

The church today is saying to the world, "Since you aren’t willing to go to the One who said, ’Come unto Me,’ we’ll bring a more tolerable version of Him down to where you like to live!"

Nehemiah said in verse 10 chapter 1 about the Israelites: They are your servants and your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand.

Learn from Nehemiah how to move the hand of God and get prayers answered.

When you have real problems and impossible situations you don’t need a God you can walk up to and ’high five.’ You need a God that is so great, mighty, and powerful, that coming into His presence causes you to kneel in humble repentance.

And Oh How HE Loves Us!
