From the Desk of Steve Shultz:
For our readers who've been following us for years, you know that one of my favorite messages to share about is God's message of GRACE.
This is a time for us to really walk out God's grace message as new salvations come into the Kingdom of God in this harvest hour.
When we got saved, none of us were perfect, and we needed great grace as we walked out our salvation.
Remember this as you read this excellent word from Kyle T. Miller and the words and revelation from the Lord he shares today. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)
