Never Give Up By Jeanne Theriault
Psalm 27:14 Wait for the Lord be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
Isaiah 40:31 But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength , they will soar on wings like eagles they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint.
The bible teaches us to wait and expect God to answer our prayers. To never give up no matter what the circumstances were in. For our present troubles are quite small and won’t last very long. But they will produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever.
Micah 7:7 But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord. I wait for God my Savior my God will hear me.
Don’t allow distractions to doubt God’s word but stay focused and meditate on his word .
Psalm 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord and on his law he meditates day and night.
Psalm 62:5 Find rest O my soul in God alone my hope comes from him. 6 He alone is my rock and my salvation he is my fortress I will not be shaken.
Rest in the promised word of God for it is his will for you.
Hebrews 10:35 So 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 . 39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed but of those who believe and are saved.
James 1:6 But when he asks he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like the wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind, that man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord .
What powerful words, we must believe God otherwise we will not receive from him, we must have faith and to trust in him no matter what. The Lord loves us and he is gracious and waiting for his children to lean and trust him.
Isaiah 30:18 Yet the Lord long to be gracious to you he rises to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him.
It is never the size of the battle and it’s never how great the enemy is, but when we keep our focus on God and how powerful and faithful he is that’s when we can find our peace and rest in him.
You might ask yourself at times why are these things happening? Why is life so difficult? God will use tough times in our lives to test our faith. Faithful people will never give up. They are diligently, determined and persistent. Always turning to God for direction. Never give up! Keep on praying, keep on trusting God.
Psalm 31:24 Be strong and let your hear take courage all you who wait for the Lord.
Galatians 6:9 And let us not grow weary of doing good for in due season we will reap if we do not give up.
Job 23:10 But he knows the way that I take when he has tried me I shall come out as gold.
Thank you Lord for your powerful word that we will wait for you , we will not grow weary but we will wait in expectation
Stay focused on you and meditate on your word and keep our confidence in you then we will enter into your rest . Amen
