If God can create a small creature to thrive in the deepest ocean, if He can separate the light from the darkness so that we can see, and if He can say to the wind, “No further will you go,” then why should we fear? Fear not, for there is nothing God cannot do.

You shall seek those who contend with you,
but you shall not find them;
those who war against you
shall be as nothing at all.
For I, the LORD your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, “Fear not,
I am the one who helps you.”

(Isaiah 41:12-13)

In all that God has promised us, He will not allow us to suffer more than we can bear. His hand will guide us to safety. Whatever manner of trial comes upon us, God, and no one else, will provide our way…

All authority in heaven and on earth belongs to Christ Jesus our Lord. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, and the author and finisher of our faith. Under no other name can anyone claim mercy, grace and salvation. He is God’s Son and the Chosen One.

“So that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

(Philippians 2:10-11)

Jesus is all we need. No longer do the shackles of iniquity bind us. Through His death and resurrection, we have life everlasting. The devil does not have a claim over our lives. Jesus redeemed us from the slavery of sin. We are now His and salvation is now ours.

Jesus loved us so much that He was…

God sent Jesus, His Son, into the world so that we might know the fullness of His love for us, for He had given Him as a sacrifice for our sins. We no longer bear the burden of our guilt, as Christ bore it for us on the cross. He died so that we might live.

“He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’ Simon Peter replied, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’”

(Matthew 16:15-16)

Jesus gave sight to the blind, gave voice to the mute and gave hearing to the deaf. The lame walked in His presence, the dead rose by His command and demons scattered at His appearance. He is the Christ with whom God is well pleased.

Christ died on the cross, and after three days and three nights, He rose again. He appeared to the apostles…

Before Jesus returned to heaven, He instructed His disciples to preach the gospel into all the world. What better way today to preach the gospel than to show others how Jesus has changed us. By being a light, others will see God’s glory through the darkness.

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”

(Matthew 5:14-16)

One of the greatest testimonies anyone could preach is to show how Jesus changed one’s life. Through acts of kindness and doing God’s will, which is keeping His commandments, the world…

The gospel is about Jesus being the Son of God, who came as a sacrifice for the forgiveness of our sins so that after our repentance we would have reconciliation with God. Our commission is to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them what Christ taught.

“And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’”

(Matthew 28:18-20)

God is merciful. He will wait for us to come to Him after our calling. The surety of our salvation rests in Jesus. He is our rock. He died so that…
