Nebuchadnezzar was going through a meltdown with no one to help him. The king gave his advisors a choice – get supernatural revelation about the …Read More
Sweeping away the refuge of lies (Isaiah 28:16-17)
Yesterday (Sunday January 15, 2017) in the early evening a rooster crowed in Paris. A small droplet of victory fell from Heaven.
