September Topic: Perseverance |
The Word says "To him who overcomes..." The Christian walk is NOT easy, so we need to be people of determination, knowing that in the end, WE WILL WIN! This month we will discover some words of comfort and encouragement to help us on our pilgrimage. |
Hebrews 13:5
NEVER WILL I LEAVE YOU, NEVER WILL I FORSAKE YOU
This is our wedding anniversary! What a great text for us - it must have been God inspired!
This month I want to look at our need to persevere in our Christian walk and yet at the same time we will discover that we are not on our own, we have the Almighty God on our side and His Holy Spirit within us, to empower us and give us the necessary courage and determination. What, therefore, a great way to start this month!
God has said "Never, no never will I in anyway leave you; never, no never, no never, will I ever forsake you." Let that promise sink down from your head to your heart right now. These are not just words. This is the promise of the All-Powerful, All-Knowing, Ever-Present Creator God - He who creates us out of clay by His powerful word.
With God Nothing is Impossible! It is impossible for Him to do nothing, and ALL things are possible to Him.
This is not just another powerful word! It's not man's word, it's not my word it is the Word of God - you can trust it, rely on it, accept it and base your whole life upon it. It is unconditional. It doesn't depend on my achievements, success, acceptance or even obedience. It doesn't depend on me at all.
It's not our promise - it is the promise of God. It relies upon His power, His faithfulness, His love and His Eternal Everlasting Life and character, which are unchanging and inexhaustible.
Understanding this and appropriating it to our lives enables, empowers and motivates us to be 'risk takers' for Him. We can have total confidence that as we launch out in faith with nothing else to hold onto - we can fully trust our Heavenly Father.
What risk is God asking you to take at the moment? Are you taking it or have you chickened out?
Now is the time to get back on track, for remember - He has said -
Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.
