by Jonathan Merki on January 12th, 2024
Take me back to my Bethel, O Lord. Take me back to the House of God, to the place where I have encountered You with clarity and assurance, where I have seen Your face and lived. Take me back to that place for a fresh encounter...fresh wind, fresh fire.

We live in this balance between humility and pr...  Read More
