Tomorrow is not guaranteed, but we have today. Make the best use of today’s opportunity to repent and give your life to Jesus Christ as you hear His voice calling for repentance.
God is a perfect God who demands perfection from His Children. But we are imperfect and even weak in many areas of our lives. How can we walk with God even if we are weak? Do we need to be strong first before we start a relationship with God? No. The truth is this: even in our weakest moments God yearns for a relationship with us.
How has God’s mercy been able to deal with us in our weaknesses? God’s love, mercy, patience and His grace make it possible for God to relate with us in our weaknesses, as He enables us to become perfect and strong like Himself.
There’s a falling away of many in today’s Christianity. Majority of Christians have been distracted from the basics of Christianity. They are now after the “additions” instead of pursuing “the Kingdom of God and His righteousness”.
There are times in life when you are faced with temptations and you lack the strength to overcome. If you lack strength don’t lack zeal. Even if everything around you is crumbling and you have no strength to overcome don’t give up on yourself and on God.
This is the testimony of how I overcame backsliding at one of the weakest moments and darkest season of my life. I am sharing it with the Body of Christ to let us know that standing strong in the Lord and overcoming backsliding is entirely without our personal human strength, but by God’s grace. I hereby encourage you to stop measuring your personal strength before choosing whether to obey God or keep His commands. Brethren, if you lack strength don’t lack zeal. Even if your flesh is weak let your spirit be willing.
