Heb 11:23. Exod 1-2: In the face of evil, these Hebrew parents risked all to save their little baby boy in Egypt. Through their act of faith, a whole nation was later delivered by the hand of their son Moses. Let us live by faith, not fearing our enemy, but trusting in our God.

Ezra 7 & 8 (with Slideshow). As Ezra travels from Babylon to Jerusalem, with the decree of Artaxerxes the Persian King, Ezra was well aware that God’s providential hand was with them. It is such a comfort and encouragement for us to know that the good hand of God is with us also.

John 6:22-71. In this astounding discourse, Jesus lays clear claim to his deity in saying that He was the Bread from Heaven above. Once again we see responses of unbelief and rejection by many and the faith of a few. May we also echo the words of Peter as he said “To whom else shall […]
