He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it

DEVOTIONS:

"...He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." Philippians 1:6



DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:

A story is told of a young man that overheard his father and a friend of the family talking. The friend said, "What's he going to do when he gets out of high school?" His dad replied, "Well, he wants to go off to college and study to be a preacher." That man just laughed and said, "He won't make it. He'll never stick it out. He'll quit." That's what the world says about Christians, "They won't stick it out. They won't make it." You see, the devil hasn't changed his tactics. He's still mocking and throwing cold water on our walks with the Lord. Get ready. If you don't feel the flames of ridicule now, just wait.



Have you ever told someone that they wouldn't amount to anything? Has anyone ever told you that? Send those lies back to the pit of hell and rest in the promises of His Word that you are deeply loved and bought with the price of the Savior's own blood.
