"If we don't keep the truth of God's grace squarely in front of us at all times, then we give our adversary the opportunity to cause doubt and uncertainty in our Christian walk by resurrecting our sins from the past."

"The zeal Jesus displayed when cleansing the Jerusalem temple is the same zeal He has for cleansing the temple of our bodies."

Our motivation to persevere through suffering is knowing that the power and authority Jesus is presently using to subdue all things to Himself is the same power and authority He will use to transform our lowly body into conformity to His glorious body.
