CONTINUE IN THE FAITH
Colossians 1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; (KJV)
The above scripture implore us to continue in the faith. That means there is the possibility of not continuing in the faith. Some did not continue in the faith.
Some started out very well but along the walk they fell. The fall was not the issue because everyone fell at one point or the other but that they did not get up from their fall. They abandoned the faith for the troubles and persecutions that arose.
As a Christian you must be resolute -- 'come what may I will continue in this faith.' Continue in the faith grounded and settled and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel. Our hope of the Gospel is that Jesus will return for us, those who sleep will rise first and we that are alive will be caught up with them to meet the Lord in the air. This is our hope, this is our eager expectation, and it shall not be cut off.
Encourage yourself with these words. Learn to always encourage yourself in the Lord. It is a good safeguard for you because at times those around who should have encouraged you would need encouragement themselves.
Whatever happens don't let it be at the expense of your faith. Continue in the faith, grounded and settled, unmoved from the hope of the Gospel. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Lord I thank You for the hope held out in the Gospel for me. I am strengthened with all strength and rooted, grounded and settled in the word, holding firmly to the hope of the Gospel, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
