“Let us hold fast the
confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” Hebrews 10:23
To waver is to be
uncertain or indecisive. When we place our faith and trust in Christ we must do
so with no uncertainty or indecisiveness in our heart or mind. Many throughout the ages have confessed their
allegiance to God only to turn and walk away when the going got rough. Christianity is not an easy road to
follow. Having said that I would also
say that it’s not nearly as difficult as some would imagine and the blessings that
come from serving Christ far outweigh the difficulties.
We
are to resolutely and fervently hold onto our faith in the Lord, for the hope
we have in Him will be realized in due time. God’s character is spoken of
frequently throughout scripture. One of
His main attributes is that He is faithful.
In Paul’s second letter to Timothy, he speaks of the Lord’s
faithfulness: “This is a faithful
saying: For if we died with Him,
We shall also live with Him. If we endure, We shall also reign with Him.
If we deny Him, He also
will deny us. If we are faithless, He
remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” (2 Timothy 2:11-13)
Don’t
kid yourself. There will be days when we feel lost and we are struggling in our
faith. God’s promises are made with no
hesitation. Those who are hungry for God
will be touched and used for the kingdom.
We mustn’t waver in our faith.
God never changes one iota. What
was true thousands of years ago would still be true today. We can rely on the Lord to be our everything
and remain faithful to us for our entire lives.
Until Christ’s return, walk with the King and be a blessing!
