It’s not just an idea – it’s the reality that The King of the universe has a plan for your life, a plan transpiring in eternal prestige, a plan that will bring Him great glory. The prophet Jeremiah explained it like this in the Old Testament: “For I know the plans I have for you, ” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV). Yes,…
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt said: “Nowadays, unfortunately, many things are done with the idea that the more spiritual and otherworldly we are, the better. But it is just the other way around. The more we learn to seek truth and to act on it as far as possible in the situation in which God has placed us, even if that be in the dirt, the better it is. For the Savior does not want to come as an idea but as…
1.”Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.” 2. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. 3. “You shall not permit a sorceress to live.” 4. Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.”

For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility. 3.

Ignatius said: “The most wonderful thing is unity with Jesus and with the Father. In Jesus we shall partake in God if we firmly resist and flee all the arrogant attacks of the prince of this world. Unity of prayer, unity of supplication, unity of mind, unity of expectancy in love and in blameless joy: this is Jesus Christ and there is nothing greater than he. Flock together, all of you, as to one temple of God, as to one…
We live amidst worldwide changes, dissimilar to anything endless ages have at any point experienced. Catastrophic events, political distress, territorial and global clashes make economic and social vulnerabilities. When we live under this sort of greatness, it is customary to be overpowered by negative emotions. We plan with stress and dread. We take a gander at the past, recalling what life had been similar to, with lament and possibly outrage in light of our misfortune. Everything is wild. It appears…

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. 3. Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 4. Let your conduct be without…
As the world is enduring its path to ending, too often, we can feel powerless and wild. Be that as it may, we can go to the One who is entirely in charge and ready to help in our critical crossroads. Whatever it is, you have the help of the Creator of the heavens and the earth. Yes, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1). Fear not; you have God’s mercy and grace…
