God works at all times, even in dark times, bringing his purposes to pass.

God tested Abraham to prove his love for God and to demonstrate God's love for us.

God keeps his promises, even when years and centuries pass by before fulfillment.

Even when God’s people are unfaithful to Him and forget His promises, God remains faithful to them and keeps His promises.

Even when the bad choices of God's people bring bad consequences, God is gracious to them.

God executes judgement on those who deserve it and extends mercy to some who don't deserve it.

It is God’s unfettered right to execute judgement against sin and to extend mercy to sinners.

We should believe God’s promises because he can and will bring them to pass.

We must all answer the important question of the identity of Jesus, who He is and why He came.

In the rising tides of evil, hold fast to God's favour.
