Not being afraid shows that you treasure God as your generous Shepherd, Father, and King.
The key to joy is faith in God’s future grace — that is, being satisfied in all that God promises to be for us.
Cherish the goodness of the Lord, fear straying from him, flee from every sin, and take refuge in him.
This is the gospel: Even though you have sinned greatly, nevertheless there is a future and a hope. Fear not!
The One with infinite power in the universe reaches down to personally touch and transform us.
Faith in Christ is not just assenting to what God is for us, but also embracing all that he is for us in Christ.
We won’t bear tomorrow’s load on today’s resources. Today’s mercies are for today’s troubles. Tomorrow’s mercies are for tomorrow’s troubles.
Come to God in prayer, to confess your sins, and to accept, as needy little farmyard chicks, the direction of God into the barn of his protection and provision.
God delights in having his name known and honored. The first and most important prayer that can be prayed is, “Hallowed be your name.”
Sheer sowing produces reaping. You must remember this, even when your tears tempt you to give up.
Trust Christ, no matter what. Go with him, no matter where. You cannot lose in the end.
When you are cast into the cellars of affliction, remember that the great King keeps his best wine there.
The biblical criterion for misplaced shame and for well-placed shame is radically God-centered.
It is good not to talk very long about God without talking to God. Frequently interrupt your talking about God by talking to God.
When Christ died and rose again, Satan was defeated. Jesus struck the decisive blow at Calvary.
Don’t just do good things for your enemies. Desire their best, and express those desires in prayer, even when they’re nowhere around.
Jesus is not just alive from the dead, but he is alive as the King who will reign forever — of his kingdom there will be no end.
Salvation is secured for all who are written in the book of life, not because of their deeds, but because Christ was slain for them.
Sometimes God will strengthen your faith directly. But most of the time, he does so through another person.
O God, help us to feel worse about our own shortfalls than the failure of others.
