We’re all familiar with John 3:16 but are we just as familiar with verse 18? It says, “No one who has faith in God’s Son will be condemned” (CEV). That means God is not holding past failures against us. We have been acquitted of all past failures! He does not ask us to bring only …
We can lose our peace when we measure our self worth by our performance. When this happens, we haven’t learned to separate who we are from what we do. It seems everyone has so much to do these days. When our lives become overcrowded with too many things to do, we risk becoming stressed out …
When we become Christians, God deposits in our hearts forces the Bible calls the fruit of the spirit. Notice what these fruit consist of: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus …
How do we get, and keep, the free gift of peace that God offers? The first step we must make in order to discover peace is to have confidence in a right relationship with our Creator. God created us for the purpose of companionship, but Adam’s disobedience created a barrier between mankind and God. Yet …
Companionship with man has always been God’s greatest desire. Nothing is more important to Him or more vital to our well-being in this life. Despite this fact, many people still struggle with this idea. Some are not even comfortable talking with God. Others have trouble believing they could ever hear His voice. It is because …
When Paul faced the threats of Satan’s strategies, he called upon God. In Second Corinthians 12:9, God reveals a powerful principle in His answer to Paul’s prayer: “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness” (NKJV). God’s grace is more than enough! The deposit of God in our hearts …
We must all do what we do by the grace of God! The Apostle Paul said, “But by the grace of God I am what I am” (1 Corinthians 15:10 NKJV). We, too, must be what God wants us to be by His grace. In First Corinthians 3:10-13, Paul reveals the importance of this truth: …
Grace is God’s empowering within our hearts to do what we cannot do alone. When problems or insufficiency seem to stand in our way like a mountain, His grace keeps us strong and moving ahead into His perfect plan. Faith in God removes the mountains. Grace keeps the mountains from moving us. This grace from …
We must begin to see ourselves through the light of God’s grace working in and through us. Notice what Romans 5:2 says, “By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” (KJV). We reach into increasing levels of God’s grace through …
In Acts 2:42, we have a revealing glimpse of the emerging Church and the priorities of its people: “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” (NKJV). We see here that fellowship requires involvement in the lives of others. It is literally partnership and participation. …
