He Will Never Give Up On You
“And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you.” Paul was convinced in telling the Philippians God will continue the good work He started in them until the day of Christ Jesus, until His return to earth or when we’ve completed our course. He’s with us watching over us supplying our need to fulfill our individual callings in life. The Lord began the good work in us, and we must continue with His support and guidance until the day of completion. God is at work within us both to will and to do His good pleasure. Our faith in Him will help us finish the race. We are laborers together with God and cannot complete our mission successfully without Him. Your everyday business should include the Lord. He’s not around to be talked about like some unreachable far off entity, but He created us to be dependent upon Him. Draw near to God, and He’ll draw near to you. He unlike Satan, will never force or make us do anything. The Lord wants willing servants not robots or mindless people with hopeless attitudes. Our purpose, and direction becomes more clear when we acknowledge God in all our ways.
