Rescue from Above | Dr. Bill Blocker

from Houston's First Baptist Church · host Bill Blocker

Dr. Bill Blocker, President of the College of Biblical Studies in Houston, Texas, shares the story of 33 Chilean miners trapped underground for 69 days and how it illustrates our need for rescue from above. Just as those miners couldn't save themselves and needed help from the surface, we need divine intervention in our lives. In John 20, Jesus gave His disciples three powerful keys to freedom: peace that overcomes fear, purpose that transforms failure, and power that strengthens weakness. When we feel forgotten or stuck, we must remember that someone above is working on our behalf, ready to lift us to freedom through faith.
