Christ sets us free by the power of His Spirit; then He maintains our freedom as we learn to live from day to day in the power of that Spirit.
We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, but frankly we won't if we're too afraid to try.
Peace comes in situations completely surrendered to the sovereign authority of Christ.
One of the most critical reasons believers experience defeat is because we categorize only a few areas of our lives as Christ's arena.
Peace is one of the most obvious earmarks of the authority of Christ. A sense of peace will virtually always accompany His will and direction, even when the direction might not have been our personal preference.
Ultimately, our relationship with Christ is the one thing we cannot do without.
Christ honors our submission even when our only motivation is obedience.
Christ sometimes provokes a question so that He can be the answer.
When we end up in a situation where we have been rejected, there is an acceptance in Christ of a new place He is going to take us. It is like nothing we have ever experienced. You are accepted in Christ, never rejected by Him.
