The kind of love God expects of His children is not a feeling, but a decision. Letting His love flow through us empowers us to love others even when they say and do unlovable things.

Faith can result in miracles, but we need to consistently apply it for it to work. Instead of a short burst of faith that doesn’t last long, we must keep it working and not bring it in from the field until we see the results we want.

We all make mistakes and fall short from time to time; Jesus went to the cross to make the Father’s mercy and forgiveness available to us at times like these. We don’t have to be afraid to ask God for help; He’s eagerly waiting to give it in abundance.

Grace is God’s unearned, undeserved favor. The times when we’re at our weakest and most vulnerable, and don’t think we deserve anything good, are the times when God can make His presence known.

Living without God’s guidance and direction is a hopeless journey with a less-than-promising destination. However, accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior redirects our lives in a positive new direction and gives us hope.

Each of us was created with an empty space in us that can only be filled through a relationship with Jesus Christ. The world offers us momentary flashy distractions, but can never give us the kind of life that God can.

The Bible is not only the Word of God, but our instruction manual on how to live successful, prosperous lives. Real success and prosperity come from God, not from our own self-efforts.

Sometimes we run ahead of God, impatiently trying to speed up what we think He’s doing in our lives, instead of waiting on Him. However, patience is a godly trait and a fruit of the Spirit; practicing it aids us in our spiritual growth.

When we focus on Jesus to the exclusion of all worldly distractions, He becomes the guiding light on our Christian walk and will always lead us down the right path in life. Fixing our gaze on Him also strengthens our faith and gives us encouragement.

Without Jesus, the world is a dark and sad place. When we get born again and accept Him as our Lord and Savior, He brings joy and light into our lives that will never leave us.

When we got born again and became children of God, the kingdom of heaven, which cannot be shaken, became our final destination. Therefore, we cannot be shaken when we believe this.

When we got born again and became children of God, the kingdom of heaven, which cannot be shaken, became our final destination. Therefore, we cannot be shaken when we believe this.

We find peace of mind and peace in our hearts by focusing on Jesus instead of the world’s drama and worries. God did not create us to live in stress.

Life is not a sprint, but a marathon. What’s important to God is not a quick burst of faith that fizzles out, but perseverance in our faith until the very end.

There are plenty of things we can have faith in, but not all of them are trustworthy. When all else fails us, Jesus Christ is the only one we can confidently rely on to be there when we need help.

We live in a dark world, and we will become hopelessly lost if we try to find our way using our own limited knowledge and understanding. The only way to see what’s going on around us and which path we should take is to navigate using God’s Word.

We must be careful not to buy into the world’s way of thinking, which limits us and constantly tells us what we can’t do and what’s impossible. No limitations exist with God; the possibilities are endless.

In a world that screams that image and appearance are everything, walking by faith and not by sight is easier said than done. However, we have God’s promise that He will reward the faithful.

We’re bound to encounter trouble in life, but how we handle it determines the level of our spiritual growth. God will never leave us in difficult times; leaning on Him as we continue to move forward helps us mature as Christians.

When we experience tough times—and everyone does from time to time—we mustn’t give up, cave in, or quit. Persevering and continuing to push forward in the midst of adversity makes us stronger; God rewards such individuals.

There’s much in life we can’t control through our own efforts; however, faith in God and His goodness is a game-changer. When we experience a breakthrough that we know we had nothing to do with, we simply need to give Him the glory.

We can’t experience any real success in life through our own efforts, apart from God. He is the one who causes good things to happen that we could never make happen on our own.

Getting born again frees us from the bad habits and sins that keep the world in bondage. Accepting Jesus, who is grace personified, moves us out from under the law of useless self-effort and into God’s unearned favor.

We’ve all had times when we realized we were woefully inadequate to complete the task ahead of us. On our own, we’ll never be enough; only with God’s help can we succeed.

To be blessed is to be empowered to succeed. When we resist worldly influences and refuse to cave in and quit on our spiritual journey, we will experience success.

It’s impossible for us to live on a daily basis and not have our faith challenged. However, resisting those challenges and standing firm on what we know to be true about the finished works of Jesus Christ makes our faith stronger.

On our Christian walk, we can expect trouble from time to time; that’s part of life. However, when it does show up, God will never let it completely destroy us.

When we’re afraid, it can be hard to trust anyone; as humans, we have a tendency to go into self-preservation mode. This is the very time to make a conscious decision to trust God.

When things happen, we must resist the external pressure to try to understand all the details with our limited intellectual minds. When we don’t know what to do or how to respond to a situation, trusting God allows Him to walk us through the issue.

It’s not easy walking in humility in a world that encourages pride, but God promises to reward those who do. Living a humble lifestyle according to His Word sets us apart and elevates us as believers.
