Today I enjoyed very much message 68 from the Exodus-Life Study. I would like to share few things that touched me. The first ordinance given by God was concerning slavery. A slave is a person who has no rights and has no self interest but knows only to sacrifice. Jesus is our pattern of being […]
What is the Lord’s recovery? We are being recovered to God’s original intention
Imagine that you received a letter from your father, detailing what he had envisioned for you in particular detail – everything he planned and arranged for you.
