Receiving the Help of the Lord
Hebrews 4:16 - Click to Read Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need It has always been my deep conviction that the prayer for help; the “Lord, help me” prayer is one of the greatest prayers that can be prayed.
