You Were Woop'd Before You Ever Showed Up.
We have everything we need for life and godliness. God gives us the power; yet, so many men and women live defeated, fearful lives. Why is that? You roll out of bed and before your feet hit the floor, the enemy has sized you up and is planning an all day picnic basket full of torment against ... | read more | |
