| The Certainty of the Gospel |
|
| ¡°Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding.¡± ( Proverbs 3:5 , NKJV ) |
|
A man climbed high in the business world by relying on the close friendship of a great executive. When associates found him despondent they asked the cause. He replied, ¡°I leaned on Jim. When Jim fell, I fell with him.¡±
Man longs for security. We search frantically for a sure support upon which to lean. The inevitable crashes of life¡¯s architecture leave us heartbroken.
There was no doubt that Jesus was buried and rose again. God proved who Jesus was with signs and wonders and various miracles.
When faith and obedience leads one to be baptized into Christ, we are raised to a new life. Through Jesus Christ we have access to the infinite power of God. And, when tried, God does not fail. We lean on the everlasting arms and they hold us safe and secure.
Our confidence in Christ does not make us lazy, negligent or careless, but on the contrary it awakens us, urges us on, and makes us active in living righteous lives and doing good. There is no self-confidence to compare with this.

Father in heaven, thank You for Your security in Christ Jesus, our constant source of strength and encouragement. In Jesus¡¯ name. Amen. - WILL MAYHUE, Wagoner, Oklahoma |
