The Lord is faithful to reveal his word. Some words he reveals in a moment, some over a few days, and some over a longer season of time. Here’s a gold nugget I received Sunday that’s been life giving for me this week. In our study of Galatians this past Sunday ... Continue ReadingPosted in Devotions | 2 Comments »

In my previous devotional, I wrote about the importance of coming before the Lord in prayer and listening for the voice of the Holy Spirit.
