In Genesis 24 – A Bride for a King (Part 1), Abraham is aged, and as he faithfully seeks a wife for his son Isaac, God’s Word reveals a prophetic and powerful story pointing to God’s redeeming love for you. The pursuit of a bride for Isaac parallels God’s pursuit of you by His Holy Spirit in order to bring you to Jesus. If you have ever felt like God is angry with you, indifferent towards you, or doesn’t want you as His child, nothing could be further from the truth according to God’s Word. Don’t miss an encouraging message from Pastor David in Genesis 24 – A Bride for a King, and walk in the assurance of God’s love and pursuit of you.

A picture of the Holy Spirit GIVING SPIRITUAL GIFTS to the church
“God has given each of you a gift from His great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to Him forever and ever! Amen.”
