ANCHORED
Hebrews 6:19-20 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek. Hebrews 6:19-20 The author of Hebrews here refers to an anchor for our soul, one that is firm and secure. It will not let loose even during the most violent storms of life. This anchor is hope Not a wishful hope, but an earnest ex

FOLLOW CHRIST
1 Corinthians 11:1 Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. 1 Corinthians 11:1 Taking the time to encourage fellow believers is not something that we as Christians think about on a daily basis. Being involved in a church can sometimes include the very important act of needing to encourage others who are also in ministry. Paul had a skill of always taking the time to write to other churches to encourage them to keep pressing on in their faith. Paul calls us to imi

GOD'S WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING
Colossians 1:9-12 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great enduranc

UTTERMOST SAVIOR
Hebrews 7:23-25 The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. Hebrews 7:23-25 ESV That is an amazing truth. An amazing reality. Don't miss it. First, Jesus can save completely those who come to God through Hi

UNSEEN
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1 I love this definition of faith. I think a lot of people, when they think about faith, think it's like stepping out, taking this blind leap into the dark, or this vague hope, or maybe wishful thinking. So, I have faith in this, and I hope it's actually going to happen, but that's not the way the Bible talks about faith. God has not called us to a

UNITED
1 Corinthians 6:17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. 1 Corinthians 6:17 The Lord is a Spirit, and we are human spirit and when regeneration occurs there is a fusing of identity. Think about that for a minute. What a fantastic statement that is. That represents the dignity of humanity above anything in the animal world that we have an ability, a capacity within us to fuse with the very nature of God, so there is no distinction left between us and H

UNASHAMED
1 Timothy 1-8:10 So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me, his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God. He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought l

JESUS CHRIST, TRUE GODLINESS
1 Timothy 3:16 Beyond all question, the mystery from which true godliness springs is great: He appeared in the flesh, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory." 1 Timothy 3:16 In this verse Paul gives a history of the life and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, covering the foundational doctrines upon which our eternal salvation rests. Jesus was the eternal Word of God, Who laid aside His

TRANSPLANT
Hebrews 8:10-12 This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord, because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more. Hebrews 8:10-12 These f

TO GOD'S GLORY
1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 This verse reminds us that everything we do should be done to the glory of God. Whether we find ourselves alone or in the company of others, whether we are thrust into the business of everyday life or quietly confined to the isolation of a sick-bed, our attitudes and actions should be such that they are a positive reflection of God's glory. But there is a fu

THRONE OF GRACE
Hebrews 4:14-16 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are-yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:14-16 Not
