The incarnation could not be stopped and neither can your salvation.

By picturing the church as a woman wrapped in the sun with the moon under her feet and stars on her head, God reminds you that the church, wrapped in the perfections of Christ, is the most glorious and beautiful work God is doing in our world.

The witnessing church is invincible. The history of the Christian church displays this truth.

When you experience opposition from the world for your faith, you and I must remember that we are completely secure in Christ Jesus.

How comforting to us – in this present crisis or any other one that comes along – to know that we are sealed in Christ and washed in His blood so that we can fight faithfully as long as we live on this earth.

... while the church might not look like much to the world, it is, from God’s view, a massive, organized, and powerful army.

If the throne is the central image of the universe, worship is the central activity.

What an incredible thing the local church is! The church receives the ministry and protection of angels but, more than that, it is held in the right hand of the Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

Let us embrace the breathtaking privilege of being part of churches, which are the receptacles of God’s Spirit, designed to display His divine light to the world.

On the ground, it is easy to view the church as weak and insignificant. That is exactly how the devil wants you to see it. From the perspective of heaven, though, the church is something unique and glorious.
