A
reminder for today
For
every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through
our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who
believe that Jesus is the Son of God. (1 John 5:4-5)
Giving up is such an easy thing to do. The minute things
are not going our way we would rather give up than to continue the fight. When
you want something, why would you stop half way and give up when you have
already invested so much to achieve it. Jesus is the perfect example of not
giving up, because He did not flee from the cross and gave up after He was so
badly beaten. Jesus continued and finally with a beaten and broken body He
carried His cross to His death so that He can save you and me. So why would you
give up if He continued until the end.
It is the evil in this world that wants to defeat us and
force us to give up and quit the fight. We have more than the abilities to
defeat the evil in this world, because within us dwells a almighty God and with
Him we can do anything and we achieve
this victory through our faith.
So today I want to challenge you to stop giving up so
easily and to continue the fight until the end. We do not have a Spirit of
fear, we have Spirit of strength and power and with Him nothing can defeat us. There
is no end to God’s resources and this means that there is no end to our
strength.
Lord I pray that you will give us the strength and determination
so that we will never give up, but that we will always fight evil and defeat it
through our faith. We believe in you Lord Jesus and we accept you as our Lord
and Saviour. In Jesus name.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
