MONTHLY DEVOTIONAL FOR 28th AUGUST

THE 28TH OF ​AUGUST

WE NEED TO TRUST THE LORD AND OBEY HIS WILL, NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES

Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:  Hebrews 10:35-36

There are times in life when we are tested to the extreme for quite some time, and often times there seems to be no way out. These are the times when we should not throw away our confidence in God’s love and in the fact that He is still there for us, even if He seems quiet and it feels like He does not care. Our Lord’s love is perfect, unconditional and constant. His love for us is not based upon our performance, but on who He is. We are never a surprise to Him, even if at times, our reactions, thoughts and emotions are surprising to us.

No matter what our circumstances, our faith in trusting God, gives us the confidence and courage through difficult times. When Jesus comes on the clouds to take us with Him, He will reward us for all the good works that we have done with the right heart and motivation. But if we do not have patience, we cannot do God’s will and endure until the end to receive His promise of salvation. The tests that we pass help change us into mature Christians, that live to glorify God and overcome all the trials, keeping a good attitude and enjoying life.

SUGGESTED PRAYER

Father please help me not to give up the fight, while going through hardships, but to pass every test so that I will receive Your rewards. Please give me patience and help me have the right perspective on things, so that I may continue to obey Your will even when I do not necessarily like it and to enjoy my everyday life until the end. Thank You for promising me eternal life with You in heaven and please help me to receive it. In the Name of Jesus I pray, Amen
