Meekness relates to power that is under control. Think of a horse ridden by a small girl. This powerful animal does according to the will of the child. The Lord has all power and He has given the Law for order and decency. Still, He operates in gentleness, forgiveness, grace, and mercy. (John 8:1-6; Judges […]
Ahab was an evil king surrounded by 400 lying prophets. They got their lies from the devil, and Ahab wound up dead from an arrow shot in a battle. One man spoke truth, but Ahab did not heed his story, one that came from God. We are heartbroken over what’s happening here and now. But […]
