Jesus Is Sufficient

February 7, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Jesus is sufficient for all things. He is sufficient for your needs, and He is sufficient to take care of everything in the universe. His capabilities are measureless and unfathomable. Yet this same God desires to know us intimately. If this doesn’t overwhelm you, nothing ever will. Jesus is our Creator and our biggest cheerleader. He’s our staunchest defender against the enemy.

He also is holy and demands we be holy as well. The Lord is slow to anger, but when His righteous anger is aroused, we must tremble in His presence. He loves us as much as He hates sin. The blood and mercy of Jesus are sufficient to cover our sins, while the ferocity of His judgment can destroy all who would dare rebel against Him.

Perseverance

January 31, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Perhaps nothing is more necessary to living the Christian life than perseverance. If you want to live like Jesus, life will test you (John 16:33). For those who dare to call Jesus Lord, know your path will not be the easy way. You will need to develop firm resolve and require buckets full of perseverance to get through this life. We are not on our own here. God’s Word has much to say about perseverance, the need for it, and how to develop more.

If you’ve read and studied the Bible over the years, you are no doubt familiar with Job’s story. He had everything you could ever want in this world, and he walked humbly before God. In a flash, he lost everything. Wracked in pain and sorrow, Job persevered through the pain and refused to give up His faith in our holy God. He is an incredible model of what perseverance looks like in the life of a believer.

Light at the End of the Tunnel

January 20, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the world is a little crazy these days. The laws, morality, and ethics taught by the Bible are under a withering attack. This is nothing new, of course. Every generation has seen their faith tested. There have been times throughout history where the Church has been forced into hiding. Indeed, in many countries around the world, this is still the case today.

But after nearly a century of religious freedom in most of the Western world, this feels new to us. Unprecedented. We are seeing people rebel against God in very public and blatant ways. History is being rewritten to accommodate the sinful desires of a few whose sole purpose is to serve their own pleasures rather than those of God.

Live a Legacy

January 17, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

I was reminded of a truth recently: you can’t leave a legacy unless you first live a legacy. The only legacy worth leaving recognizes Jesus as the Creator and Lord of all things, the only Savior of our souls. What else would you like people to say about you other than, “They loved Jesus more than anything on earth”?

That’s a legacy worth leaving. Such a legacy won’t be left unless we discipline our lives in the here and now to look like Jesus. Every day adds or subtracts to or from the legacy you will leave. Unless we live as Jesus did and walk in obedience to His commands, everything we leave will be worthless.

Our Stronghold

January 13, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

God is our stronghold. It’s a truth spoken throughout God’s Word. A stronghold is a place that’s been so fortified, it is impenetrable. These days, we might call them bunkers or safe rooms. Historically, they were forts, often carved out of a mountainside. Strongholds were the area of last resort when a kingdom was being besieged.

They were self-sustaining and people could live there for years while they waited out the attacks of the enemy. It was the safest place one could be, and once inside, they had little to fear from outside forces. And so it is with our stronghold, the Lord Jesus Christ. We are never safer than when we place our life within His.
