The Word of God teaches us that our Heavenly Father loves us so much so that He'll chastise us whenever we're in rebellion. In fact, if you've been a believer for any extended period of time, chances are you've experienced this in your own walk when you've drifted. In today's message, Pastor James reflects on the rebellious state of Israel in light of the famine they were experiencing. In his study, you'll learn that while it isn't always the consequence of our actions, hardship can indeed be The Lord reaching out to us.
