The Reason We Persevere

My sister, if you’re going to endure all that life throws at you, you have to look to something greater than the people around you. The joy set before you must be greater because the pain and agony in this life will be great. The Bible tells us who has been set before us—it is Jesus! He is our example. He is the Author and Finisher of our faith. He is the reason we persevere. Fix your eyes on Him. Learn from Him. Let Him teach you everything He knows about endurance and living victoriously!

Prayer: Father, I thank you for hearing and answering me whenever I pray. Help me to fix my eyes on the prize. You are the joy set before me. Everything I do is for you. Keep my eyes and my heart fixed on you no matter what comes my way. I long to please you and be where you are. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews‬ ‭12:2‬, NKJV‬‬.

  4. Lord, you never told us that this journey would be an easy one. After all, we exist in a sinful and evil world. However, I thank you for the myriads ways that you provide for us to be encouraged as well as strengthened in our faith in order to endure until the end. I love you and I give you honor and praise for speaking to my heart through this wonderful devotional.

    At Your Feet,

  5. He left the splendor of heaven, knowing his destiny. Tis’ the lonely hill of golgotha, there to lay down life for us If that isn’t Love, the ocean is dry. There’s no stars in the sky and the sparrow can fly. If that isn’t Love, then heaven’s a mith, there’s no feeling like this.If that isn’t Love. I thank you our mighty God.
