Dear Lord, please provide “that way, where there seems to be no way”, so that the truth will come to light.
The haughtiness and arrogance of these companies is shocking! They believe themselves to be invincible and holding all the cards! What I have to say to them is, don’t die! Don’t die before letting go of their arrogance and haughty spirit before they find themselves in hell! FATHER GOD it’s a sin problem! Please send laborers to these people and let them receive JESUS and turn away from their haughty and evil ways in JESUS NAME! Amen!
