He Keeps His Promises
There is only one Someone we can rely on, only one who keeps His promises: God. He will never leave us. He will protect and defend us. . .
He’s Working Things Out
We have a God who has a great plan for our lives. He’s working things out so that our great disappointments will work for our good. We simply need to trust in Him. . .
Move Forward
Lift your feet out of the quicksand of old history and move forward to see what new thing He is doing for and revealing to you before you miss it. . .
Fight Despair With Prayer
We must fight despair with prayer. This spiritual battle requires disciplines, like talking to God instead of listening to our self-talk, which can be deceptively untrue. . .
Growing in Holiness
The process of growing in holiness often hurts. God allows things that trip us up because it increases our dependence on Him. . .
Don’t Treat God’s Grace Lightly
Many Christians live as if God imposes no standards: we have freedom in Christ, and God is all about grace. Yes, but we must not treat God’s grace lightly. . .
Accept His Yoke
God accomplishes His plan, sometimes through great expense and suffering of His servants. But when we accept His yoke and learn from Him, He promises that we can rest in Him. . .
Understanding the Bible
We often distort God’s truth by adding our own ideas to a verse and ignoring its context. We should first discern God’s meaning to the original readers, then we can understand what He is saying to us. . .
How God Meets Needs
God knows that our deepest soul need is to know and love Him and to learn to be satisfied with Him. He has to be enough! To get us to that place, He may deprive us of things. . .
Fill Your Mind with Good
Do you categorize yourself as an optimist or a pessimist? Even if your mind goes directly to the negative, God can change you. Ask Him to daily fill your mind with good things. . .
