BLESSED ASSURANCE!

He Initiated – He Sustains – He Will Finish it!

“And I am certain that God, who began the good work WITHIN you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. “-{Phil 1:6 NLT}

NO UNCOMPLETED WORK!

NO ABANDONMENT.

NO REASON to Believe He has or will abandon you, give up on you.He has not and will not. Be assured, Be confident, Be Thankful…God who initiated is working IN you and He will complete every job He starts including IN you, and nothing or no one can stop Him… while others may walk out, give up, not the God Of Your Salvation! His work is not far off, but IN you, He has personally taken an interest in you, indeed a dying interest as it cost the LORD Jesus His Life, but on that third day He was raised from the dead and sits on the Throne ever living to intercede for you and one day to His delight will call and present you faultless and blameless before the Throne. This world is not your home nor your final destination, you truly are passing through on the way to your Heavenly Father’s House… to be “with Him.”I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.”-{John 14:3}-…PRAISE HIM…

What wonderful, glorious assurance from the LORD’S Word for you and ALL His own. Having doubts? The evil one trying to turn you inwards to look at your ‘performance’ away from His finished work? Tempting you to trust in your ‘work’ rather than His? Tempting you to trust in how you’feel’ rather than faith in Him? Then ask yourself these questions,

WHAT does this Verse reveal about the LORD?

Who Initiated YOUR Salvation?

Who Sustains YOUR Salvation?

Who Will Complete YOUR Salvation?

Who Am I FOCUSING ON? Self or the Savior? One will lead to despair, doubts, the other to assurance, praise, thanks, confidence in Him.

Say what He says about Himself and about you, this is imperative in order to live a spiritually stable life otherwise you will be emotionally up and down like a cork bopping in the sea, tossed to and fro by the waves of ever changing feelings, and performance, or difficulties, gauging God’s love on how smooth your CIRCUMSTANCES as though they tell whether He is pleased with you, loves you or not! Paul in the midst of suffering said, “…I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that HE is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day.”-{ 2 Tim 1:12}

THANK YOU LORD, You INITIATED my salvation

THANK YOU LORD, You SUSTAIN my salvation

THANK YOU LORD, You will COMPLETE my salvation

THANK YOU LORD, JESUS Is COMING AGAIN!

THANK YOU LORD, FOR YOUR BLESSED ASSURANCE!

“Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul

Thank you, Lord, for making me whole

Thank you, Lord, for giving to me

Thy great salvation so rich and free .” {Seth Sykes}

BLESSED ASSURANCE is found in HIM…-

God Bless!,
