1 Peter 5:9-11
Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
Being Faithful and Steadfast
Steadfast
Psalm 51:10
Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Psalm 57:7
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music.
Psalm 108:1
My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my soul.
Waiting
Waiting for what you want is hard. But for most people, waiting for the Lord is harder.
The Bible
The bible is the word of God and if you will read it, God will empower your spirit. Make the bible a daily part of your life.
Change and Harvest
If you are not willing to change for Jesus, how can you receive the harvest (blessings) he has for you?
Galatians 6:9
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Don’t let the world keep you for doing what God wants you to do.
Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is not an “it”. The Holy Spirit Speaks, teaches, has a will; a mind, and emotions. The Holy Spirit has a personality.
Whenever the pronoun is used in the New Testament to refer to the Holy Spirit, the word “he,” not “it,” is used.
Roller Coaster Ride
When will Christians stop riding the roller coaster and just get right with God?
Are You Committed to God?
Many Christian say they are but they are not. Where do you fit in?
