Tempted, Yet Without Sin
We know that Christ faced temptation during His life on earth and that He faced it without sin, but what does that mean for you and me?
Slowly, but Surely
God sometimes works immediately, with dramatic results, but sometimes His plan is to work little by little.
Psalm 125:3 Spared from Sin
Psalm 125:3 is one of those verses that can be easily misinterpreted, but when the whole verse is taken into account, we find an encouraging promise to those who put their trust in God.
Psalm 125:2 Surrounded and Protected
While Psalm 125:1 gives us the picture of stability and security, the next verse presents a picture of protection.
Psalm 125:1 Secure and Rooted
The poetic imagery of the Bible isn’t just for show. The descriptive pictures painted in Psalm 125:1 have been carefully chosen to illustrate an amazing truth about the relationship between God and His people.
Follow Daily
We’ve looked at what it means to deny self, take up one’s cross, and follow Christ, but there is one more aspect of discipleship linked to Matthew 16:24-25 by its parallel passage in Luke 9:23. One word is included in the Luke account that defines the scope of following Christ.
Strength from Sitting Still
God often leads us to “still waters” just when we think we don’t have time for being still. So what do we do when there is nothing we can do? What is the purpose for those inconvenient seasons of illness or injury that force us to be still?
God Knows and Cares
Whenever I feel overwhelmed or anxious, Psalm 103 helps me. But one set of truths from this comforting psalm recently came alive to me like never before.
The Blessing Behind Unfulfilled Longings
We all face times when it seems the thing we long for most is inexplicably withheld. It may be during these times that God is preparing our hearts for a blessing we would never expect.
