Fear the Lord
Vic Rhodes Fear the Lord Everyone has fears. Fear of heights, fear of spiders, fear of the dark. We fear death because it always wins. We fear bosses because they regulate our income and we are afraid of not being able to pay our bills. We are afraid of the opinions...
Come After Me
Vic Rhodes Come After Me It is an invitation. It is a personal challenge. It is a call to action. It is an opportunity. It is the eternal heartbeat of the Living God. I find it fascinating that as few as eleven letters arranged into these three simple words can stir...

Thou Shalt Make
Vic Rhodes Thou Shalt MakeWe would say it this way “You Shall Make”. This is such a fundamental principle! But it seems to be unnoticed and unconsidered by a large swath of the Body of Christ. The unbelievers seem to take it to heart, although in a selfish perverted...

Vic Rhodes Teach All NationsJesus conquered Satan unequivocally, without doubt, without possibility of a comeback. The devil was stripped and humiliated as Jesus triumphed over him (Col 1:13, Col 2:15). From that victory stance Jesus instructed the men who became the...
Study To Write

Goats The Price

FYW8 Fear No Evil
Vic Rhodes FYW8 Fear No EvilFear controls and manipulates a huge percentage of people. Fear makes it seem like there is no way out, no way to survive, no way to make it. Fear is a liar! There is always another way! When we get the doctor’s report, fear will tell you...
