Don't Be Weary In Doing Good ( Galatians 6:9 )

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Galatians 6:9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I know sometimes doing right can get discouraging especially when people just don't seem grateful for your help. It can especially get hard when those who are doing wrong benefit and you never seem to prosper, but remember the bible is very clear that the wicked will be cast down( Psalm 75:10 ). Those who benefit in wrong doing only reap in success for just a season. Another thing to remember is we are not to envy those succeeding in their sin, but instead should be praying for them to repent of their sins. Another thing I thought of when reading this verse reminded me that we can do all things through Chris who strengthens us to continue doing good things( Philippians 4:13 ). I know in today's society it can get hard to continue doing what is right because we live in such a fallen world, but we must remember we are not of this world. We must remember we were bought with a price, a most precious price( 1 Corinthians 6:20 ) and have a worthy calling that we need to be doing every day we live.

Brothers and sisters in Christ be encouraged with the words the Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy, Fight the good fight, lay hold onto eternal life(1 Timothy 6:12 ). Friends we need to reach out to this world and share the gospel which has the power of salvation. Tell someone about Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven which a person can be saved by. Don't let these dreary and tough times get you down, instead let them motivate you to share the gospel more than you ever have.

For anyone reading this tonight who has not accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and personal Savior I invite you to do so. Ask Him into your heart and admit your a sinner in need of His forgiveness. Be real with Him and cast all your worries, doubts, and fears at His feet, the feet of mercy for He cares for you( 1 Peter 5:7 ). Repent of your old ways and find your identity in Jesus Christ( 2 Corinthians 5:17 ). Don't let your past or not being perfect get in the way( Psalm 103:12, Romans 3:23 ). Instead cast yourself upon His mercy( Luke 18:13 ). Remember He is waiting on you with arms wide open( John 3:16 ). In those arms you will find love( John 15:13 ), mercy( Romans 5:6-8 ), forgiveness( 1 John 1:9 ), and a grace that is sufficient ( 2 Corinthians 12:9 ). Will you choose Him? Will you let Him set you free from the bonds of sin( John 8:36 ) ? I encourage you to do so. This is the single greatest choice you will ever make. It is a matter of life and death, life and death eternal( John 3:18 ). Don't wait, make the choice tonight( Matthew 24:36 ) !


God bless,
