Victory in Life | Aug 6th

“With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.”

  Psalm 60:12

  The believer's life is filled with hostility. We struggle with our sinful nature, and we have an enemy who strikes at our heart. The battle over sin and temptation can never be won with our determination. It is when we entrust ourselves to the Lord and the power of the Spirit that we experience victory.

   If we have been saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Then we must understand that is how we live the Christian life. Christ sustains us by His grace as we continue to look to Him in faith. This is the only way to overcome temptations. Beloved, do not determine to try harder or promise God that you will do better. Look to Christ and His strength. The Holy Spirit will empower you as you trust the Lord to finish the good work He began in you. Christ will tread down the foes of your heart through the new life you have in Him.

In Christ Alone.

God's Will | Aug. 5th

 “The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.”

   Psalm 138:8

   Beloved, the providence of God is at work in your life. You may have questions about your present circumstances and what the future may hold, but do not doubt that the Lord is watching over you. God has a purpose for your life and will bring it to pass if you trust Him.

  Your confidence can rest in God’s steadfast love. He will not walk away from you or give up on you even in the midst of your doubts, fears, and mistakes. The Lord will never forsake you. If Christ gave His life for your salvation, then there is no greater proof that He is with you and will keep you through this life. Rest in God’s unchanging care, knowing that His will shall be fulfilled.

In Christ Alone.

Help Now and Forever | Aug 4th

“Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”

   Hebrews 13:7-8

   Life is forever changing. However, the faithfulness of God remains the same. Those who have gone on before us in Christ proved the faithfulness of God and His goodness. They have left a testimony of their trust in the Lord and the reward of following Him.

   God remains the same, beloved. Let us not strive in our own strength or depend upon ourselves. We must acknowledge the Lord in all of our ways and learn to rely upon the grace He has promised to us. The Lord has committed Himself to us, and we should commit our lives into His hands.

  There is no hand stronger or more gracious than the Lord’s. He will keep us in an ever-changing world. Do not be anxious for tomorrow, God will be with you beyond the end of the ages.

In Christ Alone.
