Jesus put others before himself to the point that he was willing to die and did die for you, me, and the person you love the most, as well as the person you hate the most. He died for the doctor, the lawyer, the factory worker, the student, the judge, the prisoner, and the homeless man on the street corner. No one was beneath His love, and no one was beyond His sacrifice.
The Holy Spirit is the believer’s guide into eternity. Though we may walk different paths as individuals, we all follow Jesus, the only way into heaven. From His birth in the flesh to His crucifixion, resurrection on the third day, and ascension forty days later, Jesus laid a perfect foundation for us. All we must do is follow Him.
Whether we feel fear or not when facing a Goliath moment in our lives, the main point is trusting God at all times. When we put our trust in Him, He consumes all our fears. Even when we feel uncertain and afraid, He remains faithful and true to His Word, still removing our fear.
God’s wisdom is always present for those who walk in understanding. His children do not wander aimlessly, searching for meaning in empty pursuits. They have the Holy Spirit as their guide, and He never fails. Every step they take is Blessed, coming and going.
The more we allow Jesus to grow within us, the more aligned we become with His purpose. This transformation glorifies Him, for He is the way, the truth, and the life. As we deny ourselves and put Christ first, every step we take becomes a testament to His increasing presence in our lives.
If you have sinned, do not hide it—bring it before the Lord, turn away from it, and let the Spirit of God guide you forward. And with the Holy Spirit leading the way, there is no such thing as failure.
Fear can come in many forms—worrying about loved ones, stressing over finances, or battling concerns about health. The more we dwell on these fears, the harder they are to stop. And that is fear’s purpose—to overwhelm us until it becomes a snare.
fter you have received forgiveness through Jesus Christ, your past doesn’t define you. “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12, KJV). You must claim your identity in Christ, allowing your thoughts, words, and actions to align with His.
Judas placed a price on his friendship with Jesus—30 pieces of silver, worth less than $500 today. Imagine investing years into a relationship, only to be betrayed for a few hundred dollars. How would you respond? Would you retaliate, distance yourself, or offer grace?
In the same way, the righteous—God’s children—stand bold in the face of opposition. There is no wicked force, whether in the spiritual realm or through actions in the flesh, that does not recognize and fear the power of God’s people.
He is faithful even when we are not. No matter the circumstances—whether we are struggling with relationships, battling inner turmoil, or facing hardships—God remains near. Like a loving Father, He desires to nourish and restore His children.
Evil will always answer evil with more evil, but we are meant to be contrariwise—to act in the opposite spirit. Instead of responding in kind, we choose to be a blessing, because we are called to inherit a blessing.
