Text: Philippians 1:6
Road construction can cause many difficulties: detours, traffic jams, and frustration. Our lives are under construction, which can cause the loss of faith. It causes us not to stay focused or even make us feel like we’re not saved. It causes us to doubt and be discouraged. But, God says He will finish what He started. We need to grab hold of this Truth! We need to have the confidence in the completed work of the cross. Ask yourself, “Am I confident in Who God is?” “Am I confident in my salvation?” “Am I confident that no matter what happens, I am in God’s hands?” The work that God has begun in us is a sacrifice going on in us. There is a “dying” in us that has to be done. . .to be more like Him. We need to be producing fruit that shows God is working through us. God has given us the power to serve Him. There is no failure in God, so how can we walk around defeated? Jesus paid it all on the cross. It is finished! Jesus began a good work in us and He will complete it! He will perfect it! Let’s put our complete trust in Him!
