    We can rely on God to do as He has said. It is His nature to be faithful. He will never let us down. We may lose our health, our job, our friends, but we will not lose God. He is an unchanging God in a changing world.

    Are you a person of your word? Not everyone is. Many people are unpredictable, undependable, impulsive, erratic, unstable. They’re hot one day, cold the next. They change their opinions and positions. Change is a constant of life…but God is a rock of stability. We can rely on Him ...read more

     | 1,200 views

    In a time when forces of evil are seeking to ruin our minds, remember that our responsibility is always to uphold sacred truth. To successfully bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5), we need to have a tremendous faith in every aspect of God.
