God Encounters

David Rials

Main Idea

The main idea of this message was that Jesus has much more He wants to do in all of our lives, and when He shows up, things start changing. We can experience God's presence and power through encounters that bring joy, healing, and freedom. We can receive strength, endurance, patience, and knowledge of God's will through these encounters.
