Devotions
You Are Established!
“In righteousness shalt thou be established” (Isa. 54:14). Do you know what it means to be established in righteousness? It means to be in a right place with God. To be able to stand in the presence of a holy, awesome, almighty, pure God without a sense...
Filled With The Holy Spirit
“And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:4) It was the day of Pentecost and the disciples of Jesus were waiting for the promised Holy Spirit in an upper room....
Jesus Had To Be Anointed To Heal
