DRAWING STRENGTH FROM THE ONE WHO HAS THE WORD OF LIFE.
DRAWING STRENGTH FROM THE ONE WHO HAS THE WORD OF LIFE.
(Hebrews 10:38-39) "Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.But we are not of those who draw back to perdition"
Through the Word God sent to us,we will be Examining what makes Men draw Back to Perdition and how to Avoid this Dangerous Happening in the life of Believers.
It is important to draw our attention to this Significant fact that Life's Journey requires Strength, both as it is required Physically to meet up with the demand of our External Environment, so also does our Spiritual & Mental being also requires Strength. As a lot of physical activity exhaust our Strength which is Revitalize through Right Nutrition, Rest & Exercise. So also does our Spiritual & Mental being gets exhausted from pressure, attacks from the fiery darts of the enemy as well as unfulfilled expectations at the exact time of our Need.
Paying less attention to receiving Strength for Spiritual & Mental Stability can cause a man to deviate from the Path God has fashioned for him and His lead, and that was why the Bible Says, _"If you Faint on the day of Adversity, that is because your Strength is Small"_ (Proverbs 24:10). Can you see that the Matter of Strength is never irrelevant, adversity is what test our Spiritual Capability whether we have the Capacity mount up and move beyond the Obstacle before us or we are just empty without Weight that any wind can blow us off.
If a Man keeps building Strength in His or Her Physical Capacity without also building a Reservoir for His Spiritual & Mental Capability He/She will not be able to Stand the test of time. It is a Joke to think that God just create you for Pleasure and to Enjoy Life, while it is in God's Place to help us to be Fulfilled and Free of danger while Serving and Pleasing Him, we are at times brought to face Challenging Storms, Mountains, and Great Pressure to also reveal the Excellency of God's Power in the face of Certain Situations of Life, even Jesus said _"In this World, you will face temptation, but Cheer up, because I have overcome the World"_ (John 16:33).
The Main Charge of this Message is that we shouldn't be like one of the Multitudes that came to Jesus only for Physical Bread that nourishes the Body and it's value is only felt for a while but It is Pertinent we Strife to Receive the Bread that Supplies Strength to Stand any Pressure of any Sort and to Overcome the Adversity that Life might bring at us. Our Journey here as Children of God is one which does not permit carelessness and laxity because we are on a Mission, we Constantly need Strength for our Spiritual & Mental Capability because it is that which helps us not to fall out of the race as well as not trade our Birthright due to a Spiritual Short-sightedness. It is the Strength in us that keeps us Standing till the end and not fall out of place.
The Multitudes that despise the Bread of Life in the book of John 6 when they taught that Jesus teaching was too Hard and unbearable for them and therefore left, where are they today, many of them drew back into Perdition and could not receive a Recompense of Reward even though they encountered Jesus, but the Disciples like Peter who knew that even though they can't Comprehend the Journey Christ is taking them to, decide to keep drawing Strength from the one who has the Word of Life (John 6:68), are able to overcome the test that even came to pull out of the Race (Matt 26:31-35).
As you make all effort to Revitalize your Physical Strength on a daily basis, don't also hesitate to draw Strength from the one who has the Word of Life to Successfully Run the Race of Life without falling out and prevail any Degree of Adversity against you.
Man Shall not live by only Physical Bread (Food) but also the Bread of Life (Eternal Word of Life) this is how we have the Capacity to both Overcome our Adversary & Rise beyond any Hurdles against Fulfilling our Destiny in Life.
Stay Blessed.
