Trust in the Lord - no matter the opposition - because He will vindicate His people and destroy His enemies.

Would you have a heart like God's? Pray generous prayers, for all sorts of people, because God's salvation is for all sorts of people.

Godly lament is a response of faith – it's how the child of God gives voice to his grief and pain. When troubles overwhelm him, he offers up prayers to the One able to save him from death.

Prayer is chiefly about orienting our hearts to God's purposes and glory and submitting ourselves to Him.

Sin brings utter destruction, but God's salvation is available for those who turn to him in repentance. So let us confess our sins to the Lord.

Let us pray at all times to speak the gospel with boldness, for opposition for Jesus' sake will surely come, but God will answer our cries for help.

Believers in Christ are empowered to run the race of faith with endurance, which may include persecution, by laying aside everything that hinders them, by following Jesus' example, and by looking forward to the joy of being in His presence, where there will be pleasures forevermore!

Paul's passionate love for the Thessalonians drove him to pray for their spiritual good.

The Christian life is gospel-driven, mission-minded, church-centric, Christlike and abounding in hope.
