Not only does God want us to be empowered but He wants us to be established. If you want our branches to be higher and fruit to be wider, then our roots need to be deeper. Eph. 3:17 says, “17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in

We live in a physically focused world. We tend to focus on what is in front of us, the things that we can see, feel, taste, touch and hear.

Not only must we remember and rejoice in our acceptance in Christ, armistice in Christ, but thirdly, our access in Christ. Eph. 2:18 tells us, “18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.” There is no access to heaven or relationship with God outside of Jesus Christ. The Bible makes

Have you ever forgotten something important only to remember it later? Let’s take losing your keys for example. That in-between time of forgetfulness and remembrance is a vast wilderness.
