Today’s message is a powerful reminder of God’s unwavering presence and a call to persevere through every challenge with faith. We have a solid motivation to never quit and not give up.
Daily Devotional for January 27
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)
God’s Unfailing Presence
When we believed and accepted Jesus into our lives, God did not take us out of this sinful world to some ideal place of sanctity. He left us to live in the world, to be His apostles and reflections of His love.
So it’s no wonder that we face various challenges every day, as more than 8 billion people live in the world, all with their own needs and intentions, which may conflict with ours.
Servants of evil are also very actively expanding their zone of influence. Therefore, we often encounter problems and trials that threaten our faith and resilience.
The promise that God will never leave us strengthens and encourages us.
The Assurance of God’s Presence
One of the most comforting truths we can hold is that God is always by our side. His promise to never leave us provides security and peace, no matter what we face.
Facing Challenges with God
Difficult circumstances can seem overwhelming, but remembering that God is for us and that He is more significant than any problem we encounter can change our perspective and bolster our courage.
Never Quit
The battles we face can sometimes lead to losses, but with God, we have the opportunity to reclaim what was lost. This process might be gradual, but each small victory is a testament to God’s grace and our perseverance.
The Call to Persevere
Galatians 6:9 echoes the call to keep on keeping on. It’s an encouragement not to give up but to maintain an attitude of strength and determination, knowing that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.
