God's promises are not fortune cookies. We do not use them in order to get a spiritual "fix" for the day.

Jesus Christ is able to set us free because He has dealt with the sin that enslaves us.

Spiritual growth depends on two things: first a willingness to live according to the Word of God; second, a willingness to take whatever consequences emerge as a result.

Every day we need our gaze redirected from ourselves to God.

God made everything else but man "after its kind"' - that is, according to the purpose and destiny he envisaged for it. But he made man in His own image. Man is patterned on God! He was made to represent God - in created, human form.

Man's insulting God is not reversed by our insulting man.

Be obedient even when you do not know where obedience may lead you
