The word for the weekend is - Perseverance !

The word for the weekend is - Perseverance !

 

Life and people can be difficult sometimes, but we must endure to the end, we must love one another and pray for one another. Some people are thinking why should we endure anything? The answer to this question is, for I (Jesus) endured to the end, if you are attached to me (Jesus) you will endure also. Remember, that the world hated Jesus first and the world will hate you also,read John 15:18, If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. But the one who endures to the end will be blessed, read Matthew 10:22, And you shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endures to the end shall be saved. So,stand firm in the Lord and let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, read 1Corinthians15:58, Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, since you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. All who have been “born again” do have eternal security and will persevere. Do you not know the story of Job, God restored his fortunes, read Job 42:10, And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. Let us move forward in God, and  forget those things which are behind us, press toward the mark for the prize which is in Christ Jesus. He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion,be confident of this, read Philippians 1:6-7, Being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Even as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; since as both in my bonds, and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my grace. We will receive the “crown of life” which God has promised us the believers, read James 1:11-12, For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withers the grass, and its flower falls, and the beauty of the appearance of it perishes: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. Blessed is the man that endures trial: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to them that love him. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
