    · 2:40

    If we live by faith in God’s promise of future grace, it will be very hard for anxiety to survive.

    The way you fight the good fight for faith is by meditating on God’s assurances of future grace and by asking for the help of his Spirit.

  7. Grace Must Be Free

  8. How to Repay God

    You can’t give anything to God or do anything for God that he hasn’t first given to you and done for you.

  9. God-Given Foes and God-Given Faith

  10. Present and Powerful Love

    · 4:31

    Nothing will separate us from the love of Christ because Christ is alive and is still loving us right now.

  11. The Goal of Christ’s Love

    · 4:53

    God loves us so much that he will not allow our preciousness to become our god.

  12. What’s New About the New Covenant

    · 3:50

    In the old covenant, the gracious enabling power to obey God was not poured out as fully as it is since Jesus.

  13. The “I Will” of God

    · 4:38

    If you feel vulnerable, you can say to God, “Lord, help me. I’m not even sure how to pray.” Trust that he will respond and will help you.

  14. Devastated and Delighted

    · 4:14

    This is one of the beauties of the biblical doctrines of grace: their worst devastations prepare us for their greatest delights.

  15. He Does All That He Pleases

    · 3:50

    God is never forced into a situation where he must do something in which he cannot rejoice.

  16. The Lion and the Lamb

    · 3:01

    The worth and beauty of the Son come not just from his majesty, nor just from his meekness, but from the way these mingle in perfect proportion.

  17. Church Growth God’s Way

    · 3:54

    By all means work. But always look to the Lord for the decisive, supernatural work needed to fulfill his purposes.

  22. When God’s Love Is Sweetest

    · 3:53

    The sweetest experience of God’s love is conditional on our transformation into the kind of people whose emotions and choices and actions please God.

  23. The Message of Creation

    · 2:45

    Day and night are saying one thing: God is glorious! Turn away from the creation as your supreme satisfaction, and delight yourself in the Lord of glory.

  24. God Is Not an Idolater

    · 3:15

    God is love precisely because he relentlessly pursues the praises of his name in the hearts of his people.

  25. Pleased to Praise

    · 3:53

    If God loves us enough to make our joy full, he must not only give us himself; he must also win from us the praise of our hearts.

  26. The Unshakably Happy God

    · 3:30

    God’s pursuit of praise from us and our pursuit of pleasure in him are the same pursuit.

  27. Jesus Is Who You’re Looking For

    · 3:03

    The Bible is a window that opens onto the sunrise glory of the risen Christ.

  28. What the Resurrection Means for Us

  29. Hope to Obey Hard Commands

    · 3:18

  30. What It Means to Bless the Lord

    · 2:36

  31. Why You Give In to Sexual Sin

    · 1:57

    If we are to be sexually pure, God must have the supreme place in our feelings and thoughts.

  32. What We Were Made For

    All the other gifts of the gospel — forgiveness, justification, propitiation, eternal life — exist to make fellowship with God possible.

  33. God Forgives and Is Still Just

    · 4:18

    The death of the Son of God is outrageous enough, and the glory of God that it upholds is great enough, that God is vindicated to forgive our sins.

  34. Three Examples of How Faith Fulfills Good Resolves

    · 3:38

    The power of God to fulfill your resolves will come to you as you trust in the future grace of his promises.

  35. My Soul Thirsts for God

    · 3:09

    When we see the face of Christ, we see the face of God. And we see the glory of his face when we hear the story of the gospel of his death and resurrection.

  36. The Different Tenses of Grace

    · 3:29

    Grace is not only God’s disposition to do good for us when we don’t deserve it. It is also a power that makes good things happen in us.

  37. Have Mercy on Me, O God

    · 2:16

    We know more of the mystery of our redemption than David did. We know Christ. But we lay hold of the mercy in the same way he did.

  38. The End of the Gospel

    · 3:04

    The gospel is the good news that God bought for us the everlasting enjoyment of God.

  39. Ruler of All Nature

    · 2:52

    Stand in awe and be at peace, knowing that no natural event is outside of God’s wise and good purposes, and perfect control.

  40. The Point of Creation

    · 3:23

    God made humans in his image so that the world would be filled with reflectors of God. Images of God. So that nobody would miss the point of creation.

  41. Jesus Bought Your Endurance

    · 2:30

    God is totally committed to the perseverance and eternal security of his blood-bought children.

  42. 10 Things “Yahweh” Means

    · 5:01

    Yahweh is a proper name (like Peter) built out of the word for “I am.” It teaches us that God absolutely is.

  43. As Secure as God Is Faithful

    · 2:09

    Between eternity past in God’s predestination, and eternity future in God’s glorification, none is lost.

    · 3:02

    Sometimes God makes seemingly strong people weaker so that his divine power will be the more evident.

  47. Suffering That Crushes Faith

    · 2:20

    Suffering must not drive you from God. Instead, it should drive you from everything but God.

  48. Suffering That Strengthens Faith

    · 3:12

    Faith is like muscle tissue: if you stress it to the limit, it gets stronger, not weaker. When your faith is tested, the result is greater capacity to endure.

  49. God’s Plan for Martyrs

    · 3:37

    Our sovereign God says there is an appointed number of martyrs. They have a special role to play in planting and empowering the church.

  50. Why We Don’t Lose Heart

    · 4:03

    Strengthen your heart and renew your courage by fixing your gaze on the invisible truth you see in the testimony of those who saw Christ face to face.
