Words of Encouragement
February - 12 - 2006
Without endurance, we will shrink back from continuing to do God's will! We must pray to God to grant us the endurance to keep on believing, trusting and obeying his will! This way He will keep our souls in Christ and take us home to be with him at the end of our earthly life! What do we need so that we can keep on doing the will of God?
Let us read the challenging verses from Hebrews 10:35-39 to find our answer.
35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
36 For you have need of endurance, so that you may do the will of God and receive what is promised.
37 "For yet a little while, and the coming one shall come and shall not tarry;
38 but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."
39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.Let us pray.
Our gracious Lord and heavenly Father. We are so thankful for your saving grace. We pray that You be with us so that we may have the endurance to remain faithfully serving our Lord Jesus Christ!
In Jesus' name we pray.
Amen.
