“Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few.”

— 1 Samuel 14:6b NIV

“Something I’ve loved meditating on is the fact that worship is what we are. We are living sacrifices that were chosen before the world to be holy and blameless before Jesus. Worship isn’t limited to music. Worship should be saturated in our daily decisions and in turn the patterns and habits we establish. Let your worship be an overflow of your intimacy with the Lord.”

— 2:46 pm (via thengrace)

“Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you may not understand at the time.”

In the moment of temptation:

Jesus is loving you (Revelation 1:5b).

Jesus is praying for you (Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25).

Jesus is representing you on your behalf (Hebrews 9:24).

Jesus is sanctifying you and making you holy (Philippians 1:6; 1 Thessalonians 5:23).

Jesus is sympathizing with your weakness (Hebrews 4:15).

Jesus is providing a way of escape (1 Corinthians 10:13).

Jesus is advocating and pleading your case before the Father (1 John 2:1–2).

Jesus is ruling and reigning in complete sovereign power over your temptation (Luke 22:69; Hebrews 8:1–2).

Jesus is upholding you and the entire universe by his word (Hebrews 1:3).

Jesus is preparing a place for you to take you to so that you can be with him forever (John 14:1–3; 1 Thessalonians 4:17)

Jesus is sustaining you that you may remain faithful to the end (1 Corinthians 1:8).

Next time the dreary clouds of temptation come over your room, set your mind on what Jesus is doing to you, and for you, in that very moment. Set your mind upon the things of Christ (Romans 8:5–6; Colossians 3:2), and may your joy in Jesus become too fulfilling, too gratifying, too satisfying to forfeit over to the sad counterfeit pleasure of sin.

I ask God to remove all bitterness and envy from within me. I ask God to allow my happiness for people to be pure and genuine. I ask God to cleanse me from all feelings that are in even the slightest tainted with pride and jealousy because it is these feelings that make the heart rotten and a rotten heart is too heavy for me to carry. Dear God, purify me.

[shepraises]

I become anxious when I don’t go to the One who calms my heart. I become anxious when I ignore my Creator. Time and time again, I have seen how walking further away allows the Enemy to take hold of my very being, bringing me down into the depths of sin and despair.

Holy Spirit, draw me closer to You. Help me choose You over my fear, stress, and temptations of this world. You are my lifeline.

“How much greater is the God we have than the one we think we have.”

“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.”-Ephesians‬ ‭6:11‬ ‭
