1 John 2:1–2 1… if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 2And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins… Today, Jews still observe Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement. As the name suggests, it is a day set aside to make atonement for one’s sins. But […]

Jesus Has Given You His Peace
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you… In Israel, Jews greet each other with the words “shalom, shalom”. Unlike the English word “peace”, “shalom” does not just mean peace of mind, but also wholeness for your entire being — […]
Jesus, The Measure Of Your Righteousness
2 Corinthians 5:21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. God wants us to seek His righteousness and not our own righteousness. When we seek our own righteousness, we will always end up feeling miserable because we can never […]

Remain Steadfast In The Faith
1 Peter 5:8–9 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9Resist him, steadfast in the faith… When I was a teenager, I was taught that if I wanted to resist the devil, I had to rebuke him. So whenever an evil thought […]

Fight From Victory, Not For Victory
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. God does not need you to defeat the devil today. Jesus has already done it and given you the victory. (Colossians 2:15, Romans 8:37) Your part is to enforce the victory by simply […]
Jesus Understands What You Are Going Through
Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Do you sometimes wonder if God really knows what it is like to be poor, rejected by people or sick with aches and pains. Perhaps you are […]
