Is this worth it?

Some are asking that question today. I guess we all have at some point.

Waiting for God to fulfil His promises that are being held on to can lead to this question.

Lives that feel like they’re simply treading water, years being wasted as they wait for God to step in and do what they have declared He can do.

What if He doesn’t? Will this have been worth it? This faith; going to Church; believing for something.

This is not just in 2024 but it was definitely in the first century. The author is pleading for the Christians to stand firm and not return to Judaism. It seems some have already done so. They have been told to remember what they have received and what they have endured. On the basis of that:-

“So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.” (Hebrews 10 v 35)

Today God is crying out to us through His Scriptures such as this one, ‘Don’t give up!’ Into a multitude of voices trying to convince you through lies, disappointments, hurts and doubts it is His voice that we need to hold on to. “Don’t cast off, throw away, don’t walk away now, you will cheapen everything you have stood for and all that you have endured.”

If the battle for your mind is intense right now then just maybe it is because you are about to enter into something new. Keep your confidence, your boldness, your fearlessness, hold on to the promises of God, to God Himself. The reward will come.
