Do Not Lose Heart

Happy Sunday everyone,

2 Corinthians 5:7 says, “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” In Romans 1:16 Apostle says, he is not ashamed of the gospel of Christ because that is where the power of salvation lies for all who believes. Then he said in verse 17 of Romans 1 “For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” Living the life of righteousness, which is the life of Christ requires a life of faith and trust in all that God has given us by Grace. But have you been in a situation where you hold on to what God said you received by Grace through faith in Jesus, but hasn’t yet materialised, most likely because the set time for it to materialise physically hasn’t come, and it starts to appear as though you’ve been wasting your time? Yeah, I’ve been there many times, but Galatians 6:9 encourages us saying, “And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.” AMPLIFIED.

In the days that we are in there are so many things that could make you get discouraged and if care isn’t taken, you could be weak and lose hope on that which Christ has promised you. But really we need to understand that should not expect a free life without any attacks from the evil one. Holding on to what God has given you in Christ Jesus is what the evil one doesn’t want you to hold on to, so he does everything to get you discouraged. But God is merciful as we have the Holy Spirit who is our strengthener and comforter, the One who encourages us to keep on keeping on.

Another thing we shouldn’t forget is that as long as God said it, then it is true. Everything God says must come to pass no matter what happens because He said it and He honours His word more than anything. So don’t lose hope, ask the Lord for strength to keep on keeping on, and the Holy Spirit would come as your guide, comfort and strength till God’s word come to pass in your life.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
