Always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So then death is working in us, but life in you.

And I, brethren when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. …

It is early Wednesday morning here in beautiful Rathdrum Idaho, and from the looks of it, we may have a little bit of rain today. But, that doesn’t mean it will not be a nice day, of course, every day should be nice and wonderful in the life of a Christian right? No matter how cloudy it seems. There are the cloudy days that bring rain, and there are cloudy days that bring despair when trials come. It’s true, trials come and are difficult to get through at times, you know that …

(John 15:5)…..”I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

Now that is a verse that has been on my mind for quite some time, a few years anyway. I have come to realize how true it is. Yet the human response still remains the same in most, if not all, the people we run into on a daily basis, who believe they can do everything without the Lord’s help and power. Think …

For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. (Romans 5:17)

Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:11)

It’s not every day that we roll out of bed and think that we live in a perfect world, trouble free, no difficulties, all things wonderfully full of frosting and gum drops. OK!, so never! But in Christ we have the promise of Him working all things to the good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose. But let’s assume you are feeling troubled, inadequate, weak, defeated, overwhelmed, alienated, or alone? Here are six gospel promises to embrace today:

(Joshua 1:9 – NKJV)…..”Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Oh how we forget that very truth! How many times are we afraid because we forget that God is with us wherever we go. Maybe we just haven’t come to believe that His promise to us is that He will never leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Over and over the Bible tells us to not be afraid. …
