Do Not Throw Away Your Confidence;
It Will Be Richly Rewarded.
You Need to Persevere
So That When You Have Done The Will of God,
You Will Receive What He Has Promised.
HEBREWS 10:35-36
Thoughts About This Verse . . .
Boy there are some Tough Times in Life!
They’re Inescapable.
That’s when our Confidence in the Lord’s Salvation
and Our Relationship with Him get Tested!
It is one thing to Sing
“It Is Well With My Soul”
at the end of a Peel-The-Paint Worship Service,
but it is Quite Another
to Be Able to Sing It
when they Auction your House off at the Courthouse Steps
or You’ve Lost a Child to Death.
That’s when the Commitment
To Be Who We Want To Be
Overrides the Weakness of What We Feel.
Faith Can’t Take a Holiday
When We Travel Through the Suburbs of hell
or We’ll Never Find Our Way out.
So Don’t Throw it Away.
Be like Job or Jeremiah Who both Argued
and Complained to God.
Just Don’t Quit.
MY PRAYER . . .
Holy and Almighty God,
Today is a Good Day.
But I am Profoundly Aware
that some of those I Love
are Wrestling with Throwing Away Their Confidence
in Your Love, Mercy, Grace, Peace,
and Deliverance.
Please Use Me,
but even more I Pray that use Your Holy Spirit
to Renew their Hearts.
I Pray that You Intervene Directly
to Change the Course of Events
and Give Them Relief.
In Jesus Name I Pray.
Amen.
