OUR INDIVIDUAL FAITH IN CHRIST WILL BE TESTED TO THE LIMIT
THE CALLED & REDEEMED:
CHRISTIANITY IS A CONTINUOUS TEST OF FAITH AND OUR INDIVIDUAL FAITH IN CHRIST WILL BE TESTED TO THE LIMIT. [1 CORINTHIANS, 10:-13]
1 PETER, 2:- 21-23 “APOSTLE PETER PROCLAIMED, “FOR TO THIS, YOU WERE CALLED, BECAUSE CHRIST ALSO SUFFERED FOR US, LEAVING US AN EXAMPLE, THAT YOU SHOULD FOLLOW HIS STEPS. WHO COMMITTED NO SIN, NEITHER WAS DECEIT FOUND IN HIS MOUTH. WHO, WHEN HE WAS REVILED, DID NOT REVILE IN RETURN, WHEN HE SUFFERED, HE DID NOT THREATEN BUT COMMITTED HIMSELF TO HIM WHO JUDGES RIGHTEOUSLY.”
LET US REMEMBER THAT THE GLORY THAT IS AWAITING US IS VAST, COMPARED TO THE LITTLE CHALLENGES WE ARE TO FACE ON EARTH
EPHESIANS, 6:12 “FOR OUR STRUGGLE IS NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST THE RULERS, AGAINST THE AUTHORITIES, AGAINST THE POWERS OF THIS DARK WORLD AND AGAINST THE SPIRITUAL FORCES OF EVIL IN THE HEAVENLY REALMS.”
THESE POWERS SELDOMLY USED OUR BODY COMPONENTS TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS.
THE HOLY SCRIPTURE SAYS, “SUBMIT YOURSELF THEREFORE TO GOD. RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.” [JAMES, 4:-7]
IN CONCLUSION: LOOKING UNTO JESUS, THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH, WHO FOR THE JOY THAT WAS SET BEFORE HIM ENDURED THE CROSS, DESPISING THE SHAME, AND SET DOWN AT THE RIGHT OF THE THRONE OF GOD.
[HEBREW 12:-2]
PLEASE LET US PRAY FOR THE SPIRIT OF ENDURANCE IN TRIALS AND DIFFICULTIES THAT WE MAY BE ABLE TO ENDURE TO THE END. FOR HE HAS SAID, “THOSE WHO ENDURE TO THE END SHALL BE SAVED.” [MATTHEW, 24:-13]
WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE FOR CHRIST AND WE APPRECIATED YOUR TIME SPENT WITH US TODAY.
MAY THE LORD BLESS AND UPHOLD YOUR FAITH IN HIM TO THE END OF AGE.
