We often rely on the ways of man to bring us to where God wants to take us. But God has other plans; He will shake what can be shaken so that what cannot be shaken will remain and bear much fruit for the purposes of God. The beauty of knowing the favour of God comes with the balance of also knowing how to fear Him. Man's favour will often fail us, but God's favour is unfailing. He wants us to know His favour, His fear, His faith and His purpose. As these truths stay with us, they will be a sure foundation for our times.
