Endurance in Faith
Teaching:
Christian life is not a walk in the park.
Christians need to persevere even through suffering.
Doing the will of God is the means to receive God’s promises.
Application:
Expect trials in life.
Get ready to persevere.
Do the will of God and receive His promises.
Discussion:
Why is doing the will of God the means to receive His promises?
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I know for sure that I am not exempt from experiencing hardships. Since Jesus, the Son of God, experienced all sorts of pain, who am I not to experience the same? Therefore, grant me the strength to overcome all the trials that come my way. Grant me perseverance to endure. Help me thrive. Let me soar on wings like eagles. Enable me to obey You so that when I have done Your will, I may receive Your promises. Thank You, Lord, because whatever happens, I know You are with me. You will never leave me nor forsake me. I pray this in Jesus’ name, amen!
