DETERMINATION: BIBLE VERSES (2)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Determination

a) All Christians will have times of doubt and fear and even worry. We can see this throughout the pages of Scriptures in many of our biblical heroes. Satan will often use these things we think on to weaken our faith. 

b) Some of the stories of Abraham or even King David and we get to see first hand what fear and worry can look like and often lead us into sin. The word of God has much to say about this topic and gives us many verses to turn to for strength and determination in our daily walk with God. Sometimes these verses will tell us to simply hang on or endure a tough circumstance. Other times we are told to think through and grasp and embrace the power of God in our lives. But overall, God’s word gives us hope as we (sinful people) will battle our sin nature for the rest of our lives or until the return of Jesus.  

Galatians 6:9
"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up." 

2. Bible Verses

Romans 8:35-39 
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”   No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 12:11 
Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. 


The End ...
