DON’T GIVE UP, ENDURE AND BE PATIENT



"But if you endure suffering for doing good, this is commendable before God." — 1 Peter 2:20


When God tells you to trust Him, know that there will be times when your faith is tested and your dreams might seem out of reach. You may even feel like giving up, but today I encourage you: Never give up!


Giving up means you’ve decided that God has failed and can’t help you anymore. It means you believe God is not faithful and that His promises won’t come to pass. When you give up, you stop relying on God and choose to depend on your own strength instead.


But remember, your strength and abilities have limits. Before you make the decision to give up, ask yourself: What happens if I quit? What will follow? Are you ready to let the enemy win? Will you allow evil to triumph? You need to realize that you’re the only one who can make the right decision to keep going, whether it’s in your job, marriage, or family.


If you’re considering giving up on your family or marriage, think about the impact on your children. What will happen to your loved ones? If you’re the one they depend on, there’s no one else who can do what you’re doing. If you quit, no one will step in to take your place.


I encourage you in the name of Jesus: Keep moving forward. Heaven is on your side. Don’t focus on those who oppose you or speak against you. Remember that God has trusted you with this responsibility, giving you the strength and ability to fulfill it. Don’t stop doing what God has called you to do because of people’s opinions.


Where your blessings are, challenges are often the greatest. Anything with a testimony comes with battles. If you’re not patient, you may miss out on the blessings God has prepared for you, and His plans for your life may be delayed.


Many people give up just before overcoming their challenges. Don’t let that happen to you! Stop focusing on your current hardships because you can’t see the full picture that God sees. Instead, trust His promises, stand firm, and keep moving forward.


Prayer: Jesus, give me the strength to overcome this challenge. Help me to be patient and trust in You. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
