Watch Out
Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him! What a wonderful God we serve that we can not even fully imagine all of the wonderful plans that He has for us! As we truly seek God, His ways and to fulfill His purpose for our lives, Pastor Bridges warned us to “Watch Out For People With An Evil Eye” (1 Samuel 18:1-9). People may see your anointing and become jealous of your blessings or afraid that you will leave them behind. Stay alert, but stay focused and keep on going. Take comfort in God’s love for you and all of the blessings He has in store for you! If you don’t have a church home, we welcome you to join us this Sunday at 10am to see for yourself what God can do!
