From Matthew 28:20: “And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

It hurts to endure life’s trials, and it hurts worse to repeat such episodes. Over the long haul, God is honing us through such tests. Reducing us to an absolute, open-armed trust, where we say, “Lord, I have come to the end of my own flesh.”
From Psalm 9:9: “The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.”

From Mark 13:11: When they bring you to trial and hand you over, do not worry beforehand about what you are to say, but say whatever is given you at that time, for it is not you who speak but the Holy Spirit.”

From every corner
Darkness forecasting light
Voices filled with emptiness
Now standing firm, God’s faith airtight
One promised ticket
Risen from empty tomb
False prophets flee every scene
Now Savior breathes, faithful hope blooms
Suffering no more
Calvary’s blood-stained cross
Foundation of Father’s grace
Now sin flees, no longer faith’s boss
Mercy from heaven
Angels stir from above
Called to gather Shepherd’s flock
Now faith’s destiny, filled with love

From Mark 13:26-27: “Then they will see ‘the Son of Man coming in clouds’ with great power and glory. Then He will send out the angels and gather the elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.”

Because He is gracious, God saves us on the basis of faith in His Son. Then He gives us a new nature empowered by the Holy Spirit who comes to live within each Christian.
From 1 Peter 1:3-5: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By His great mercy He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who are being protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”
