“Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise”
Hebrews 10:35-36
Endurance is the ability to withstand hardship or adversity; especially the ability to sustain a prolonged stressful effort or activity. We can honestly say that recent events are definitely testing our endurance on all levels and in every area of our lives. Yet, in everything that we have faced we are still able to endure because our confidence was not misplaced.
God has given you his Holy Spirit to comfort you as you stand in the truth of his word. He will never leave you nor forsake you. It is because of his strength we are able to face and get through our challenging moments. Our confidence in God builds endurance, and our endurance builds resilience. We find ourselves growing stronger when we are able to trust God.
When we trust God beyond our knowledge, we are able to tap into a strength and grace that only he can give. It’s time to rest like Jesus did on a boat in the midst of the storm. Why? Because he is with us. We have to embrace and accept that powerful truth. When you believe and have confidence in God’s word, you are building endurance.
When you have the privilege to prove God and his word, you become confident with every victory and patient through every battle. Endurance is key when you are believing God to come through for you as you fight the good fight of faith.
Today, I pray that God gives you the spirit of endurance to withstand every hardship you are facing right now. May you receive new found strength and a bounce back resilience to whatever is seeking to knock you down. As you continue to stand in God’s word, may it be your shield, provision and compass. May you pursue God’s will and wholeheartedly that you may attain what he has promised to you. Amen
