MEN WHO WIN.
Luke 1:67

The first chapter of the book of Luke is one of the great chapters of the Bible. It's a long
chapter. It is a chapter which tells us about some of the preparation for the coming of the Lord Jesus

Elizabeth the mother was filled with the Holy Spirit. You will find that John the Baptist was filled with
the Holy Spirit. Wouldn't you call that a family that wins? Wouldn't you call that a home that wins?
We are going to talk in this message about a man who wins and what it means to be a man who wins.

what any of them said it did for them. I don't know if it did them any good or not. But that was called
a Wounded Warrior Retreat. It was part of an emphasis that has b ...
