Malachi 1:3 / Hebrews 10:31 - Be not found an enemy of the Lord
Channel: Mark 4:11 / John 3:27 - Unto you it is given
Date: 2023-03-24

We examine the love of the Lord as a blessing.  We further discuss how we must truly fear the Lord, lest He consume us in our pride.  Of a truth, we ought to be grateful and worship Him for He even has chosen us, having laid eyes on a people who were not seeking Him.

Be blessed in the Name of YEHOSHUA HA'MASHIACH (Jesus Christ).
Allelu-YAH. Amen.
