Identifying Compromises That Hinder Spiritual Growth
2 Things that are super important to your Heavenly Father
- Your Heavenly Father is Completely Delighted when you are growing 3 John 4
- Your Heavenly Father gets Compassionately Displeased when you’re not growing
- The Request of God: “Let my people go!”
- The Reason for the request: “hold a feast unto me.”
- The Range of the request: “three days’ journey”
- The Reaction of Pharaoh to the request: “I don’t know, therefore, I will not”
- Pharaoh did not: Regard, Respect, Rejected, and Rebelled against Jehovah.
