Indeed, as I looked, the sinews and the flesh came upon them, and the skin covered them over; but there was no breath in them. Ezekiel 37:8Ezekiel saw the well-built physical appearance, but he also saw that there was no breath of God in them. How true is it in this generation, when we look externally - Lot of work done on behalf of God like mission work, events, and meetings but there is no breath of God in them. Big campaigns, meetings and...

They don’t have any other goal or purpose in their lives. Every second and minute they are filled with only one goal i.e. to worship and adore God. They are so caught up or lost in worshipping God for all eternity. They will spend all of eternity worshiping God. Sermons and...

How much change would we (and others would) see in our lives?When you wake up in the morning, you realize that God is coming in the night to meet you. It is not an expectation, but a reality or surety. God came yesterday, and He will come today. How will you handle when you are in such a situation like Moses? God physically...

And they do not rest day or night, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!” Revelation 4:8Worship is not something we do or participate when attend the church on Sundays (before the sermon).
