“The Wheel in the Middle of the Wheel” (Ezekiel 1:16)
Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. | Royal Missionary Baptist Church

“The what that’s done is not as important as why it’s done.” Today, Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. uses the imagery of “the wheel in the middle of the wheel” in Ezekiel 1:16 to remind us of two important things about God in difficult times: he’s always there with us and he’s always in control.

“The question of really, who you are… is to discover what makes you do what you do… why are the things in your life as they are? To really know a person is not directly understood by looking at what a person does, but at why a person does it. Just as each of us is driven by an inner voice… I want you to know that the events of the universe are also controlled by unseen hands.” We believe God with you that God is about to speak a word that is especially for you.
