In this opening episode of the new 5-part series, we explore the first step in seeking God’s help: acknowledging the problem and naming it honestly. Through the stories of the widow of Zarephath, Philip and Andrew, the man at Bethesda, Elijah, and the pilgrims approaching Jerusalem, we discover how honesty becomes the doorway to divine intervention. This episode invites you to lift your eyes to the hills in your own life and begin the journey of receiving the help that comes from the Lord.Scripture References (Unless otherwise noted, all Scripture References are from the NKJV):Psalm 46:1 (ESV).
