The Life of Christ Is at Work in You
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:21) The Christian life is not a life we are expected to live by our own strength. Christ Himself is our life. His divine life is at work in our spirit, soul, and body, and His presence in us makes us more […]

Excellence Is in Your Spirit
And Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him. (Daniel 6:3) Excellence is not merely about appearance, achievements, or doing things perfectly.

Strengthen Yourself in the Lord
But David encouraged himself in the LORD his God. (1 Samuel 30:6) There are moments in life when circumstances seem overwhelming. David experienced such a time at Ziklag.

Stop Making Excuses
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. (Philippians 4:13) One of the greatest hindrances to spiritual growth is the habit of making excuses.
