What an awesome assurance these verses have, Crissy, no wonder it is one of your favorite. Because we are GOD’s own children, we will have faith until the end as GOD also strengthens our faith and will not leave us alone struggling. With the Triune GOD’s work in our sanctification, we can OVERCOME sins and temptations. If GOD is with us, who can be against us? GOD bless you and your endeavors in service of GOD.
Amen to that, Crissy, GOD does work in us. Likewise, a blessed day to you and you ministry. The Typhoon was devastating in most affected areas as there are places still with flood waters if not inundated at this moment, allegedly due to lack of coordination, foresight, and even hindsight on releasing of dam waters.
You are right, Jim! Continuing what you have written: and in obeying GOD’s commands our love, faith, and hope in Him increases and He will also strengthen it, through the revelation of His Word and work in our salvation, including our holiness process. This, ensuring that we will be His own children and OVERCOME the world in it sins. GOD bless you, Nancy, and the kids!
Praising the Triune GOD for His victory that we too have our victory in Him and against the clutches of sin because of His work in us. Indeed, we are grateful to the Triune GOD who strengthens our faith in Him! GOD bless Jewels for the Soul, you and your family!
Thank you, Jim! I’m always amazed and grateful what GOD leads me to when it comes to verses and graphics; the top two ingredients. And in this case, an Unsplash photo of Langtang National Park in Nepal by Sergey Pesterev.
Praising the Triune GOD indeed, Alan that we will overcome the trials and temptations of this world because of our faith in the Triune GOD who works in our salvation and sanctifies us. What an assurance that we will overcome the world because of Him, for His glory. Hallelujah!
