The time you spend alone with God will transform your character and increase your devotion. Then your integrity and godly behavior in an unbelieving world will make others long to know the Lord.
The Bible tells us that God will meet all our needs. He feeds the birds of the air and clothes the grass with the splendor of lilies. How much more, then, will He care for us, who are made in His image? Our only concern is to obey the heavenly Father and leave the consequences to Him.
Obey God and leave all the consequences to Him.
If the Lord says to give more than you think you are able to give, know that He will provide for you. Whether things are sailing smoothly or the bottom has dropped out, He is always trustworthy. You can count on Almighty God to keep His everlasting Word.
From the world’s perspective, there are many places you can go to find comfort. But there is only one place you will find a hand to catch your tears and a heart to listen to your every longing. True peace comes only from God.
When trouble comes, focus on God’s ability to care for you.
From Genesis to Revelation, here’s the central message: God Almighty, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Spirit of God, the Triune God is in control of all things, period.
His voice leads us not into timid discipleship but into bold witness.
When God speaks, oftentimes His voice will call for an act of courage on our part.
You may go through difficulty, hardship, or trial – but as long as you are anchored to Him, you will have hope.
When we surrender to His timing, He does mighty things in and for us, according to His will and His timing. God acts on behalf of those who wait for Him.
Every test, every trial, every heartache that’s been significant, I can turn it over and see how God has turned it into good no matter what.
Perhaps you have been ensnared by a sinful habit that you will not abandon, and your guilt is so overwhelming you are ashamed to approach Christ. Whatever the reason for your broken intimacy with God, there is good news. Jesus waits to embrace you now in the arms of unconditional, divine love.
Regardless of the source of our pain, we must accept that God knows, God loves, and God is at work.
God will never reject you. Whether you accept Him is your decision.
If you put your faith in yourself and your abilities, intellect and dreams, then your foundation is only as strong as you are.
As you walk through the valley of the unknown, you will find the footprints of Jesus both in front of you and beside you.
The circumstances and events that we see as setbacks are oftentimes the very things that launch us into periods of intense spiritual growth.
No matter how far we may wander from the Lord’s perfect will for our lives, we are always welcome back.
The gate is small because truth guards the entrance. The way is narrow because the Lord protects us with wise boundaries.
