15 Insightful Bible Verses on Being A Man Of God
In our contemporary times, the usage of the phrase “man of God” is so rampant. Automatically, anyone who shows some commitment to the ways of God is tagged a man of God or woman of God, depending on their gender.

So, when things don’t go smoothly, or we face loss, we might start to question our knowledge of God and our relationship with Him. Hence letting doubts creep into our hearts.

So many situations can urge us to consider borrowing to ease things up. I know because I have been there.

And it is this form of self-control by the Holy Spirit that constrains us. Note that the constraint…
