Believers need not fear the trials, sorrows, sins, enemies and troubles of this life.
None of them will ever be able to break us completely or utterly quench our light.
Our Tender Lord is able to sustain us, to support us and to see us through it all.
God didn’t save our soul to allow us to be completely broken or to have our light snuffed out along the way.
He saved us to do a work of grace in our life that will endure through eternity. He saved with the assurance that He would complete His work in us.
Phil. 1:6, “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:”
2 Timothy 1:12, “For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.”
Ideas for this unprofitable blog are taken from The Sermon Notebook—Biblical resources for preachers and teachers of the word of God. They allow these sermons to be used as the Lord leads but not for profit.
