The David Spoon Experience 5-31-24 part 1

A) The Apostle refers to the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as excellent examples for us. These great men and women of God spoke God’s truth and endured hardships such as imprisonment, persecution, and even being thrown into a pit. Despite these challenges, they never denied their words nor cursed God. They were blessed due to their close connection with God.

B) Dave then goes on a very inspired rant about our ability to understand that it's the promises that God has given us that enable us to endure and give us the ability to be patient during sufferings, afflictions, trials, and difficulties. If we hold on to the Lord, he will hold on to us. If we let go, he will still hold on to us. But if we let go, we tend to create more problems than we need to.
