When Gideon came to the Jordan, he and the three hundred men who were with him crossed over, exhausted but still in pursuit. - Judges 8:4   REFERENCE Judges 7:21-25, 8:4-12   Some of you may be familiar with this popular saying: “Life is not a walk in the park.” Indeed, as Believers, as long as we are still on this side of eternity, we will always have situations that will challenge our faith.

The wind that was supposed to aid their sail became contrary to them – threw them off balance and made them uncertain about getting to their destination. This...

WE WILL NOT BOW

Our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace... But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up. - Daniel: 3:17-18   REFERENCE Daniel 3:1-25   Amongst the multitude of people who bowed their kneels when king Nebuchadnezzar made his infamous decree for everyone in his kingdom to bow down and worship the graven image he had set up were Jews who had been taken as prisoners from Judah.

The third thing the four lepers did was that they decided to move to the enemy’s camp not fearing for their lives, and not minding the risks involved. To move into new things or make progress in life, you need...
