Learn how God takes Christians through different
cycles in their life, so a person can become the
mature believer He wants you to be. Are you going
through really hard times now? This DVD will
enable you to understand why God is allowing this
trouble to come upon you and what you must do to
come out of this trouble as quickly as possible.
Pastor Hoggard uses the nation of Israel as
his example. Ancient Israel went through numerous
cycles in their national life when they would love
God and obey His commands and God would prosper
them. But, then Israel would become complacent
and prideful and fall away; God would then bring
Israel through hard times, sometimes including
bondage, in order to chastise the nation so they
would come back to him. Likewise, in this modern
era, God will bring hard times upon a believer who
has grown cold in their walk with him or actually
gotten to the point where they would come back to
His loving care
Everything in our lives,
including our service in the church, comes from
God and not ourselves and we need to really
remember this fact or we will become prideful.
We highly recommend this fine sermon. Watch the
