Standing Firm in Faith

Scripture: 1Corinthians 16:13 Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.

Observation: Today Teri and I are going out to witness at the beach I don’t know why it is such a scary proposition, but I’m nervous. I know it is what God commands all of us to do and I should stand firm on His commands and have faith whatever might happen is of God. I don’t have the courage or strength within me, but I know God will give it to me as I call on Him to fulfill His purpose in my life.

Application: I need to have faith that today is ordained by God and when Teri and I go in faith to witness to His children that He will grant our ways with success. Not only today but in all things that are God’s will I need to trust in Him that He will work things out and no matter what the outcome may seem to be that He is pleased with my obedience.

Prayer: Dear Father bless all that go out today to touch the lives of others in your name. May we speak boldly about our love for you and that you will be pleased. Put the words in our heart that we may witness successfully to your children and draw them to you. I know you want none to perish may we do our part today to draw others to you.
