God is Keeping You | Nov 10th

“ The Lord God helps me; therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame.”

     Isaiah 50:7

  Beloved, it is God's faithfulness in us that enables us to persevere. We have been saved by grace alone in Christ and that same grace is working to keep us. The very assurance of God at work in and through us is what gives us the confidence to trust in His providence. It is knowing who He is that brings the peace which we cannot ourselves.

  We are His. He's promised us that He will never leave us. With that in mind we go through each day, knowing we are not on our own. We don't rely on our own strength and our own resources alone. We know that the Lord knows all things and that He works all things, even the unknown, for our good. He calls us by name and has promised to meet our needs. That is why we can go on in the face of doubt and fear.

  The Lord saved us by grace. He will keep us by grace and we can go ahead and set our faces like flint, with the absolute certainty that He will carry us through all the seasons of life. Trust the Lord today and you will not be ashamed or disgraced for He will help you.

In Christ Alone.
