Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by Whose stripes you were healed. 1 Peter 2:24 Jesus Christ was nailed, for our sake, on the tree- ‘the Cross’.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:2 From when Cain killed his brother(Gen 4:8), the general illusion is that people can violate laws and get away with it. We often hear that people misuse their position and power […]
O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down. Psalm 139:1-3 People often wish for someone to understand or comprehend them and to be by their side in tough times. But why […]

Hebrews 12:28 “Therefore, since we are receiving a Kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.” When the verse mentions Kingdown, which cannot be shaken, it holds more prominence than we can imagine.
