When Our Expectations Aren’t Met
God is sovereign, always working out his good plans, in, through, and around our lives – our call is to trust him even when those plans surprise us with unexpected turns and painful experiences.
Anxiety
When the Task Seems Impossible
We should learn from Christ’s compassion and selflessness, confident that he will provide what is needed when we sacrificially step up to face the challenges he providentially sets before us.
Confident in His Power to Sustain
Christ possesses all authority and all power over all things, yet for now, before he exercises that authority at the coming kingdom, we must learn to trust him implicitly amid a variety of troubles.
The Chronic Noise of the World
Those with real saving faith will, by God’s grace, be occupied with growing in their relationship with Christ without becoming preoccupied with the futile things this world has to offer.
Guarding Your Assumptions
We must be careful not to abuse the promises of God’s word by using them as a rationalization for violating or avoiding another aspect of God’s word.
A God in Control
Life will feel uncertain and perilous at times, but as Christians we must fix our focus on God, affirming his love for us in Christ and his good promises regarding our future.
Reasons for Confidence No Matter What
If the ultimate danger of facing God’s wrath has been eliminated for us in Christ, then there is no place for fear, worry or anxiety regarding the problems we face in this life.
Rethinking Biblical Faith in a Down Economy
In difficult financial times we can trust God without fear, continuing to spiritually thrive because we know God’s promise of prosperity is not for this life, but the next.
Trusting God When Your Back’s Against the Wall
When problems, pressures or people are pitted against you and they threaten to do you harm, make sure you’re right with God, focus on him and leave your opponents for him to deal with.
