No circumstance, person, or difficulty can stop the plans and the promises of God.
Don't wait until the moment of crisis. Plan ahead, hide God's Word in your heart, and pray in advance for victory, holiness, and a life pleasing to God.
God is no further from you on your worst day than He is on your best day. Just open your heart to receive Him and His love.
As you read the Word of God today, read it with expectancy and anticipation for the changes it will make in you.

When culture changes around us, God's standard of living does not. Even when we're engulfed by evil, the eyes of the Lord range to and fro throughout all the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.
The Lord Jesus Christ is in a class all by Himself; there are no competitors, no rivals; He is unique. He is Lord of all. He is King of kings, Lord of lords, the image of the invisible God. He is Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the Preeminent One.
If we don't take inventory every once in a while and give thanks to God for the great things He has done for us, we get totally out of perspective.
