We can HOPE in Jesus because the Incarnation is not His beginning, because He is Supreme above all things, and by trusting the Gospel with unshifting faith.

Praising a sovereign and righteous, gracious and merciful, powerful and providing, faithful and good, redeeming, holy and wise God, as His people.

A renewed relationship with God requires regular reorientation to the worship of God, to the word of God, and to walk with God.

You cannot win if God is not with you, God gives new mercy for the day, and new mercy for the day means straining forward to trust and obey.

Big victories can often lead to great temptations to sin, you never sin alone, you must come clean with your sin, sin always has consequences, look to Christ for mercy in your sin.

Victory belongs to God, judgment belongs to God, what is God's belongs to God, and mercy belongs to God.

The Commander has come victoriously, is fighting for His people, and deserves our undistracted worship.

God's people are set apart by His mercy, redeemed for obedience (not by it), to rest in His blessing and provision, to live for His glory.
