In a world where there are many words spoken. Some religious, some political, much trivial and inconsequential, talk among family and friends of events, church activities, teaching, and on and on we could go. In the prophet Jeremiah’s day following the capture of Jerusalem the people chose to disobey God, even though the prophet had … More Whose Words Shall Stand?
It is not a matter of “If”; it is a matter of when God’s word comes to pass.

For the month of September I will be preaching in the prophecy of Jeremiah. Every Sunday morning and evening we will be looking at the life, work, and ministry of this “Weeping Prophet”.

“Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; so the children of Israel heeded him, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
