And I came to tell you that sometimes in our lives, we need something that cannot be produced

from the human mind or spirit.

Every now and then you get to a place in your life where you need God to intervene.

World renowned doctors lose patients, decorated military leaders lose battles,

and sometimes the only way to save a life or win a war is for God to intervene.

Hello and welcome to another great day here on Destin for Victory,

where we feature the preaching ministry of Pastor Paul Shepard.

Well, I'm sure you know by now that our best isn't always quite good enough, but we're in good

when divine intervention was his only hope. This series is called Standing for Right in a Wrong World.

Look for it online at Pastor Paul.net.

And while you're there, you can listen to any of our recent messages on demand, including today's.

That's Pastor Paul.net.

Now, with today's Destin for Victory Message, I'm equipped for this.

Here is Pastor Paul.

He said, no more days like that.

I decided this is a firm decision, he said.
