STAND STRONG

 

 

Hi Everyone:

 

1^st Corinthians 16:13, 14 "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love." Paul's words of encouragement to the brothers in Corinth were as necessary then as they are today for all of us who stand strong in our faith.

 

In my opinion, the world is such that we need to be bold, brave, and willing to stand against the tide of moral decay in our land. We need to be ready and willing to strike out (no pun intended to baseball fans) against the ill wind being blown against us by Satan; it is a forceful wind and getting stronger and stronger as we get closer and closer to the return of Jesus.

 

We can be most effective against the devil with prayer and as Paul says, 'do everything in love.' Satan cannot be effective against loving and praying Christians; they are his challenge and he cannot overcome prayer and love.

 

All of us can be strong, loving, and effective by:

 

Getting our strength from reading the Bible, AMEN, Nick                                           Number 411
