God speaks today Sunday | June 4, 2023

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (Jeremiah 29:11)
For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. (James 2:13)

Let us use love, grace, and mercy as a weapon of spiritual warfare. Read more...
