Our First Line of Defense
The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit and enables us to know right from wrong in the spiritual realm.
Take Every Thought Captive
Regardless of where a thought originates, examine it in the light of God's Word and choose the truth.
Renewing Our Minds
No one pushed the “clear” button in our memory banks when we became believers; this is why sin doesn’t just disappear once we know Jesus as Savior. Transformation begins at salvation and continues as we renew our minds.
You Have Not Been Given a Spirit of Fear
In an anxiety-ridden world, we must be aware that we have been given a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind—not a spirit of fear.
Your Significance as a Child of God
What is forgotten in time is of little significance; what is remembered for eternity is of great significance. And there are no insignificant children of God.
Are You Striving for Acceptance?
Unconditional love and acceptance is one the most basic needs of all humanity, and when you know who you are in Christ, you know that you are already secure and loved by your Father God.
Peace Is Not Out of Reach
Because we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and His primary work has been to mediate peace between fallen humanity and God.
Does Being in Community Really Matter?
Fellowship in the family of God affirms our identity in Christ. We absolutely need God, and we necessarily need each other.
A Restored Relationship with God
By the grace of God we can stand before His throne with our relationship restored.
Living Like a Child of God
As believers we may not feel free from sin and we may not feel like children of God, but in reality we are. Our position in Christ is real truth, and we must choose to believe it.
You Have Access to God
Jesus said it is the “pure in heart” who will see God and experience fellowship with Him. Because we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, who can approach Him?
Can a Saint still Sin?
A “saint” is someone who is united to Christ and has the capacity to overcome sin. Because believers sin, we want to call them sinners, but what we do does not determine who we are.
You are a New Person in Christ
We must lay aside our former way of life and embrace the new life we have in Christ.
A New Position in Christ
Being alive “in Christ” is the basis for every aspect of the Christian life.
A New Identity in Christ
When we encounter God, He frees us from our past and gives us a new identity.
The Pursuit of Godly Goals and Desires
One key to successful living is learning to distinguish a godly goal from a godly desire. With God all things are possible. And no one can keep us from being what God wants us to be except us.
Resist Creating Your Own Light
When your way suddenly gets dark, don't light your own fire. Our natural tendency when we don't see life God's way is to do it our way. Resist the urge to create your own light.
Nothing is Impossible with God
If God wants something done, can it be done? In other words, if God has a goal for your life, can it be blocked, or is its fulfilment uncertain or impossible?
