Paul give us a tremendous promise from God that we can be 100% sure he will fulfill. It is found in Philippians 1:6: (AMPC) And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you.  God is tenacious in his love for you and desire for your best. No matter what you have or have not done, He will never give up on you. Live confidently and be empowered by His grace!  Thank you for standing with us.

Have you ever felt frustrated, disappointed, discouraged, or maybe even ashamed that you weren't growing as you should in your relationship with God and in godly character? Maybe you're still struggling with the same thing year after year after year?  This is not the time to be discouraged. This is the time to be encouraged. Jesus is not only the One who brought us to faith, He is the finisher of our faith. What he began in us, he will complete!  “Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.”

Psalms 23:5 NIV

David uses the image of a shepherd pouring olive oil over the head of his lambs to illustrate that God is the healer of minds, souls and bodies. Believe in and receive the healing Christ provided for you on the cross.

Whatever challenges you face, you are more than a conqueror. By His love, God has provided you with every resource you need to walk in overwhelming victory. Believe it. Declare it. Walk in your victory!

We experience refreshing and new strength when we worship God and meditate on how He has blessed us. As we bless God for His blessing He delights to bless us even more.

“he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.” Psalms 23:3 NIV

When we walk through valleys - remember to keep walking! Valleys are temporary. They are only the passageway from one pasture of blessing to another pasture of blessing.

So, keep walking beside your shepherd and know you are one day closer to victory and blessing.

“Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”

Psalms 23:4 NIV

As our Shepherd, God is always watchful over us and those we love. He not only protects us from the enemy, He also protects us from our own bad decisions.

One of the ways He protects us is by keeping us close to the other members of His flock - the local church.

Trust in God's protection!
