Lessons from a Fig Tree

For about 7 years now, God has used Habakkuk 3 to minister to me on a yearly basis (and often even more frequently). It seems that each year, God uses personal study, public preaching, or the testimony of friends to use this passage to work in my heart in a big way. Here’s a [...]
