GIVING UP (2)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Bible Topic
a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.
2. Giving Up
a) Though we make mistakes, we are still in God's hands. Psalm 37:23-24, NKJV. The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the LORD upholds him with His hand"
b) Mistakes happen and sometimes we fall - don't give up, get back up. It's in the Bible, Proverbs 24:16, NKJV. "For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity."
c) Nothing can separate us from God's love. It's in the Bible, Romans 8:38-39, NKJV. "For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
d) Trust God and wait on Him. It's in the Bible, Isaiah 25:9, NKJV. "And it will be said in that day: 'Behold, this is our God; We have waited for Him, and He will save us. This is the LORD; We have waited for Him; We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.'"
e) God will not fail you in your day of adversity. It's in the Bible, Psalm 57:2-3, NKJV. "I will cry out to God Most High, to God who performs all things for me. He shall send from heaven and save me; He reproaches the one who would swallow me up. God shall send forth His mercy and His truth."
f) Nothing is apparently more helpless, yet really more invincible, than the soul that feels its nothingness and relies wholly on God. It's in the Bible, 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NKJV. "And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
