As a saved person, you have been tasked with a job that transcends all other vocations. Your calling is to take the message of salvation to others. It is a calling worthy of your life and it demands courage, conviction and determination.
In our culture, we have lost the virtue of valuing anything more than our own lives, but for the Christian, spending eternity with God is worth far more than our next breath.
There is encouragement in the gospel that displaces the troubles and burdens in your life.
You can never underestimate the power of selfish ambition to bring about destruction in your life. Instead, be ambitious for the gospel and the glory of God.
The Holy Spirit is not tingling feelings, He is the one who grants you a new life and empowers you to live a life marked by obedience and assurance.
If you are a Christian man or woman, God has given you and baptized you in the Holy Spirit. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead lives in you.
It is not enough to just act “godly” or to come to church, you have to repent and turn to Jesus as Lord and Saviour.
Do you want to be truly happy in God? Then delight in the instruction of the Lord. Saturate your life with His word. Make it your foundation and nothing, even trials and suffering, will be able to take away your eternal joy.
Christ comes to only those who know they need a Saviour. He has taken you, a lonely orphan in the cold, and has made you a son and heir of God.
If you want to have life, then life-giving belief begins here – Jesus is God. The babe in the manger is God veiled in human flesh, come to save His people from their sins.
